Alice fits in with this... well, I'd call it I think a quintet at this point, but for the first third of the campaign, we had this trio of young heroes - Freddy, Jaime, and Alice. Freddy had experience, Jaime was completely green (blue), and Alice was pretty new. These characters all have taken a major role on the stage of the campaign (and later-comers like Traci 13 and Misty have as well). But because of this, these are some of the characters who have had the most development or most opportunity to set up relationships. Freddy maybe a little less so since he's so established in-universe. Jaime maybe the most, but he had a lot of negative interactions with PC's.

Alice has been a poor young soul tortured by the state of the world, but also with a weight of responsibility of power on her shoulders that she's still learning to accept. And because of this, she has gone through such strides in the campaign - subtle changes, but realistic ones. A person doesn't completely change in a year and a half, but they develop, and we've been able to watch Alice do that in real time. She just feels so alive. There's a lot of depth to her, and a cool part of that is that it is hidden because she has so much trouble being open with people. It's so cool.

Alice also just has a lot of comedic value aside - some characters are fleshed out, some are gimmicks. Alice is fleshed out and has gimmicks. She's the campaign pothead. Despite PC's like Saoirse and Lush partaking plenty of their own. Brennus had to get high to get a spell recently, and he did it alongside Alice (which was a stellar scene). Also, Alice has Rover, one of the most pathetic of animals. And recently, Alice started getting concussions... like, all the time. She usually wakes up in some other form, but it's become a bad habit of hers.

It's cool seeing the NPC's who become such a core part of this campaign. Alice was maybe always destined to be one, but these characters all take influence from player actions, and Alice still has a long way to go. It'll be great to see where she ends up - if her hubris or fear gets the better of her against the Spectre, or maybe, if she gets inspired to be more of a hero than she should.

I mean, her and Freddy already tangled with the Spectre alongside T'charr and Terataya, and she did fine there. Suffered a concussion though...

Hint for 10: This character is small
