## Description

### Appearance

Alice is of average height for his age, with a light brown skin tone at the beginning of his adventures. His hair is black and his green eyes seem to glow brighter when accessing his magic. Though he spent many years careful to project the image of a perfect and proper student, his life at sea in the sun has changed him significantly with darker skin and wild, loose hair. Despite the drastic change in aesthetic, his hard features and furrowed brow have never seemed to go away.

Over the course of the adventure, Alice has started to grow facial hair, seemingly as a natural part of puberty; however, he has also grown exactly one inch as a result of wild magic.

### Personality

Rude, tempermental and a bit bossy, Alice tends to be overly judgemental and critical of others. Singularly focused on controlling and mastering his own power, he turned to knowledge in all its forms for answers and values the written word with almost religious devotion. Despite being surrounded by people since infancy, Alice suffers from a life of loneliness and struggles to show affection or trust; however, once his trust is earned, his softer and more creative sides can be encouraged by the people he loves.

## History

### Background

Alice is a young, gifted sorcerer raised in the orphanage system known as The Theo Mothers. Finding him difficult and scary to raise, a young Mother secretly called the Arcane Academy after hearing they were scouting for young and gifted children. The Academy was interested and offered to bring Alice under their protection and house him at the school, signing paperwork to gain legal guardianship.

It didn't take long for Alice to realize the school was suspicious and the more he voiced his opinions, the more he was ostracized from the rest of his classmates until finally he was kept in his room until further notice. This would prove to be the catalyst Alice needed to research a way to escape, taking advantage of his alloted visits to the library and stumbling upon strange notes talking about a Djinn under the school...

Armed with as much knowledge as he could find, Alice snuck under the school and made a wish:

"I wish I could find my family."

And thus, the relatively sheltered young boy crashed violently onto the deck of the Miss Demeanor and his life was changed forever.

##### The Unstable Magic Table (aka: The Little Boy Magic Table)

Alice's lack of control over his power is shown in-game through a table designed by Brett. Every time Alice casts a spell above a cantrip, Dodger must roll a D20 to see if the spell operates normally. At higher levels, he is given the ability to make the "safe zone" for a normal spell larger. This table reflects its form at Lvl 1.
