Alice

Alice, carrying the Brute's Knife.

**Alice Kiyoshi** is character in the *Jack & Bella* franchise and one of the 5 main protagonists of the upcoming anime *Jack & Bella R*, produced by Imaginate and Round 1 Animations. She is the biological sister of Arsia who is the last remaining Valkyrie from her kind known as the Royal Valkyries, who came from a royal palace long ago.

## History

### Birth & Early Life

Alice is the firstborn daughter of her Valkyrie mother. She lacked any powers but has the spirit of wanting to become a Royal Valkyrie warrior. One day, while reading the Valkyrie's guide book (at age 11), she came across a mysterious yet magical brute who can give away powers and disappear. Alice told him at she wanted the power of a Valkyrie, in which the brute gave her the power of a Brute Valkyrie, gifted with the Brute's Knife.

This surprises her mother and father who were at first strict but then got more caring and decided to teach Alice of how to be a Valkyrie warrior. The Royal Valkyrie Palace was invaded by Satan's demonic forces. Alice intervenes with the other Valkyries, in which she is very skilled until she confronts Satan. Her father gets in the way, fighting for her. He then tells her to run to her mother to escape the palace and move to the Aidem Kingdom.

### Mid-Life

Alice and her mother, as well as her newborn sister, Arsia, ran to the Aidem Kingdom and serves as substitutes, without the need of a king. Suddenly, her mother suffered from a illness and has died, making Alice and Arsia the only family left of their own kind.

When both Alice and Arsia's mother died, she treats Arsia as a mother-figure and royal sister at the same time. However, her sister has no kind of DNA or spirit, so Alice sent Arsia to Capital Boundarier to let her live like a normal human while she focuses on becoming more and more stronger and better from her previous experiences...

## Personality

Alice comes off as a hard-working, sometimes serious, calm, noble, and emotional young woman, rarely if ever being silly like the other characters (for Japanese/anime purposes). She constantly aims of becoming more stronger and be just like her mother, father and her kind, the Royal Valkyries. Hence, she frequently looks to Jack (and sometimes Bella) for advice to achieve her goals. Since becoming Jack's disciple, Alice is very reverent and protective towards Jack (who she refers to as "Mix" (a play on the war god Mixcoatl)).

Alice can also come off as pretty annoying, since she always have to do lots of monologues, which can get some characters frustrated or annoyed, mostly Jack. Although her long, annoying monologues is viewed as the only thing that is silly from Alice.

Aside from her seriousness and annoyance (sometimes), Alice is a very nice, helpful, passionate, yet an emotional person. She can't seemed to let go of her pride on getting more stronger to beat Satan and his goons for killing her father. With that aside, she can give everyone a warm smile/mood when they interact with her. Alice also makes Hot Cross Buns, her favorite meal, to make everyone have a comfortable day.
