Background / History
Alice is described as a human who became a Magician before entering Gensokyo. Though somewhat reclusive, she welcomes humans lost in the Magic Forest into her mansion for shelter. She later left the Demon World during a rebellious period and made her home in Gensokyo. 238 845
When Marisa brought Mo Yi to meet her, Alice initially assumed he was another human in need of assistance. Mo Yi's interest in her grimoire led instead to an exchange of magical knowledge: he taught her foundational Rune Magic concepts, including coding and artificial-intelligence principles. 240 252
Mo Yi later presented Alice with an Automaton Girl made from Eve's heart and a ceramic figure. The gift fulfilled Alice's long-held wish to create a sentient doll; she named the girl Aili and accepted her as a younger sister. 251
Alice continued developing her connection with Mo Yi, eventually intending to bring him to meet Kishin. She also practiced Spell Card techniques alongside Mo Yi and Reisen in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. 271 314
At a later point, Alice used the Book of the Demon God to create and then sever a fabricated memory world, afterward placing the future memories she had obtained into Mo Yi's mind. 490
Appearance
Alice has the refined, doll-like appearance associated with a Western Magician. Her features, fair complexion, and stillness are described as making her resemble one of her own dolls. 240
- Short blonde hair and fair, almost crystalline-looking skin. 240
- Deep blue eyes. 251
- Sleeveless blue dress, red sash, white shawl, and a red hairpin. 240
- Usually carries the Book of the Demon God. 240 1153
- Learned that Kishin had genetically altered her hair color, which distressed her. 1010
Personality
Alice is reserved but not withdrawn from people in need; she has a habit of sheltering humans who become lost in the Magic Forest. She is also notably combative for a Magician and will accept a challenge when offered one. 238
She can be anxious and self-conscious around Mo Yi, carefully preparing her mansion, snacks, and appearance when expecting him. Her feelings also make her jealous of rivals such as Houraisan Kaguya, though she chooses to assist when Mo Yi's safety may be at stake. 817 833
Alice is protective of her relationship with Mo Yi and wary of Kishin's interference, having learned to reject what she sees as her mother's overbearing “kindness.” 845 848
Abilities & Skills
Doll Magic
Alice's primary discipline is doll magic, allowing her to direct numerous puppets in coordinated combat and domestic tasks.
- Controlled more than twenty dolls at once against Marisa. 302
- Uses lance-wielding dolls to restrict an opponent's movement and create openings. 302
- Deploys other dolls for multi-angle bullet-hell bombardment. 302
- Has her doll army clean and manage tasks around her mansion. 817
Puppet Barrier
Alice can arrange her airborne puppets into a defensive formation.
- Her puppet barrier absorbed Marisa's mansion-destroying magic cannon and converted it into pure magic. 241
- Forming the barrier interrupted her charged ultimate attack and left her briefly vulnerable to Marisa's counterattack. 241
Magician Physiology
Unlike Marisa, whose body remains physically fragile, Alice's existence has transformed into that of a Magician.
- A direct hit from Marisa's magic cannon would cause her only minor injuries rather than kill her. 241
- Her heritage as Kishin's daughter provides her with exceptional talent and resources, despite her focus on doll magic. 302

Alice's grimoire is Kishin's treasured Book of the Demon God and the main source of her broader magical power. 240 1153
