Beth Kane

**Elizabeth "Beth" Kane** known under the alias **Red** **Alice,** is the estranged daughter of Jacob Kane and the late Gabi Kane, the twin sister of Kate Kane, the maternal cousin of Bruce Wayne.

After a family car accident, Beth disappeared and was declared dead. In reality, she had been rescued from drowning but was unable to return home as she was thousands and thousand of miles from Gotham City. The traumas Beth experienced in the subsequent years drove her insane until she adopted the identity of Alice.

After returning to Gotham in 2021, Beth decided to exact revenge on the family that abandoned her. She went after the Bat-Team and broke Kate's heart. A month later, Alice later teamed up with Barbara Gordon's long lost brother, Jack Gordon, who was known to be a pychotic patient at Arkham Asylum.

At some point, Beth and Kate had a Bat Mitzvah to celebrate their 13th birthday. After the party, the sisters waited as each of the guests left. Jacob's car was filled to the brim with their birthday presents so he decided to leave on his own, with Gabi driving her daughters home. After Jacob left, Gabi personally gifted Beth and Kate necklaces adorned with garnets, their birthstones, to symbolically represent the women they would become. She wanted the twins to stay connected to her, showing how her earrings matched their pendants. Beth and Kate happily accepted the gifts before embracing their mother.

While returning home with Gabi, Beth and Kate posed for a polaroid picture with their necklaces to remember the day. Suddenly,a terrorist attack happend then slammed into the back of the family's car and veered them off a bridge. The sisters witnessed the trauma, Beth urged Kate to escape out the rear window while she tried in vain to rouse an unconscious Gabi. Kate yelled for Beth to get out of the car and grab her hand. Just as Beth reached the window however, the car broke off from the grappling hooks and she cried out for Kate while falling into the river.

When the car hit the water, Beth witnessed her mother's head being severed and launched through the windshield, much to her terror. As the river swept them away from the bridge, she did her best to remain calm while the car filled with water. Somehow, Beth managed to swim out of the vehicle, alive and hardly injured.
