Alice Cooper

## Background

### 1976 - 2000: Alice Smith

Alice Susanna Smith was born & raised on the Southside of Riverdale to Steven & Mary Anne Smith. The Smith family was a large clan, consisting of three brothers (Steven, Brian & Sean) & their respective families. Her father, Steven was the oldest & worked at the local Riverdale Auto Shop. Her uncle Brian worked as a teacher at Southside High & her other uncle Sean went off to the military. She was pretty close to her relatives, being the middle cousin but mostly stuck to her friends at school. Unlike others on the Southside, Alice was enrolled at Riverdale High on the Northside of town. Alice entered the school & soon became known as the bag girl from the wrong side of the tracks with enviable hair & no friends.

She made acquaintances with the other kids, mostly Fred Andrews & Mary Maiden (who Fred would later marry & divorce). Alice did not get along with many girls other than Mary & had a rivalry with both Hermione Gomez & Penelope Blossom. However, she began dating another kid from the Southside, FP Jones. Not only were the two on the same side of town & enrolled in the same school but they both were members of the Southside Serpents. Though the Northside saw the Serpents as nothing but a bunch of no good criminals, they were a close-knit family that just also happened to deal in petty theft & drugs.

After a bad argument between her & FP, the two broke up & Alice ended up going through a post-break up transformation. She let go of her Serpent past, now dressing herself up in "better" clothes to fit in more with the Northsiders. It worked for Alice & she began dating Hal Cooper, a player on the football team. The two even went on to win prom queen & king their senior year.

### 2000 - 2018: Alice Cooper

When high school ended, her & Hal stuck together to some surprise of their former classmates. She enrolled at Carson College & got her degree in journalism. Eventually, the two got married & have three children, Chic, Polly & Betty. Together, Hal & Alice bought the local newspaper, The Register & moved in together at a house on the Northside (which happened to be next door Fred, Mary & Archie Andrews).

## Personality

Alice is a very protective parent when it comes to her family, especially to Betty, whom she was quite over-protective of when she found out that Polly was with child.

She can be judgmental toward others, as she was judgmental towards Betty's friends in the beginning, while also to her friends' parents as well. She was especially rude toward Jughead & FP due to their status & connection to the Southside Serpents. Because of this, she would looked down upon them even though she was previously affiliated with them in her teenage years.
