Personality: Alice Elliot is a very gentle and demure young woman, much like what you'd expect from a catholic girl of the early 1900s, though with the added perk of holy powers. She is strong, in both heart and mind, and though, like everyone, she has her doubts, she always ends up better and stronger than before.
Though caring, and almost innocent, she is not naive, and she isn't quick to trust. Even Yuri, the man who had saved her, was privy to her timid distrust. She doesn't assume, however, that everyone is out to use her; she's simply careful. It's better safe than sorry, after all, especially after the death of her father. Despite her cautiousness, she'll drop it all if it means helping someone in need, sometimes not even thinking of the dangers that may lie ahead her.
While Alice isn't particularly social, she greatly enjoys the company of others, though has no qualms with spending some time to herself. She's quiet, and enjoys quiet. She is thoughtful, and intelligent, although there are times she'll act without thinking. She tends to be very polite, even to a point that her enemies tend to make mention of it.
Mayor Lady: What a nice-mannered young lady. But you don’t have to worry
about your manners so much here. …For, it won’t change the taste of their
meat.
Despite how quiet she can be, that doesn't mean she'll let herself be walked on. She's known to have her outbursts, especially in high-tense situations. More than once she'll stomp her foot in frustration, usually because Yuri either seems too calm or takes the situation as a joke. She isn't the bravest young woman, but you won't find her running and hiding when things get tough. She's a fighter, even if the only thing she may want to do is run.
Like many others, Alice cares deeply for those around her, even going so far as to sacrifice her very soul for the man she had fallen in love with. Her sacrifice required no deep thought on her part, mostly due to the fact that she knew that Yuri didn't deserve to suffer any more than he already had; she wanted to relieve him of his pain in any way she could, and so she took on his curse.
Her adventure with Yuri ended with her death, but Alice wouldn't change a thing about it, because despite all the hardship and the pain, she got to spend it all with the very person she loved. The only thing she would ever regret was leaving him. Their journey gave her strength and courage, and provided answers to her powers; it's something she'll always cherish.
Abilities/Powers: Not only is Alice a very powerful white mage, she is also known as The Key of Light, a powerful source of energy that can be used in a great many rituals, and the very embodiment of positive magic. Her powers are wide, and varied, and only touched upon in the game. The character Zhuzhun Li calls her "demon-eyes" due to the fact that she can see and feel what others cannot, and is capable of sensing evil, though it's unknown if it's due to her status as The Key of Light, or simply another one of her traits.
Alice has several spells, and while most of them are defensive or healing spells, she also happens to have the second most powerful offensive spell in the entire game: Advent. Advent deals heavy light-class damage to any enemy in the field, and is especially powerful against enemies that happen to be Dark.
Her other spells include:
CURE (cures a small amount of HP to one ally)
HOLY EDGE (adds the element of light to any ally weapon)
BLESSED LIGHT (deals weak light damage to an enemy)
WISH (cures all negative status effects)
GOSPEL (raises all allies defenses by 30%)
ARC (cures all allies HP)
RESURRECTION (brings back one ally from KO with full health)
Aside from magic, Alice can deal some physical damage by attacking enemies with a book. To make it a little stranger, most of the books she uses are odd, holy items, and her strongest weapon happens to be the HOLY BOOK OF FLESH, a tome made of the flesh of a martyr.
As for weaknesses, Alice has her share of them. She isn't the most physical of people, and is about average in terms of strength. Her endurance is well tested through out the game, especially after she acquires the Four-Mask Curse, which is extremely draining for her. She's able to stay alive until the very end, though she does collapse once or twice. With her death, the curse is gone, but it's proof that she can suffer and push through quite a bit of physical and mental problems.
Just like her powers work well against something that is classed 'Dark', she is weak against Dark. Any magic that is dark will do considerable damage to her. She can also be overwhelmed by negative energies. For instance, if a place is filled with much death and suffering, Alice will be able to feel it; for her, it's a heavy mental feeling, and the worse an area, the heavier it is.

Sample Entry Two: The train gave a whistle as Alice sat down next to him. He smiled at her, and her heart stuttered; she smiled back, and he laughed. The last year had been tough on the both of them, their journey taking them from China to Europe to above the very Earth they stood together to protect; it was journey neither would ever forget.
They didn't say a word to one another as the train began to depart, instead their eyes were glued to the window as the world around them began to rush on past. Alice met Yuri on a train, but back then there was nothing between them--she was just the damsel in distress, and he just the rude hero that rushed in to save her--it almost broke her heart to know that their time together could end any minute.
I did it to save him. It took everything in her to keep the curse at bay, to keep breathing, but as time passed, it got harder and harder. Alice could feel herself dying, but she had kept on for him. She gave a quiet sigh, leaning against him. Her turned his head slightly, and she looked up. He smiled, and she returned it.
If only this moment could last forever. But it was starting to get hard to keep her eyes open. Neither of them had gotten much sleep since the Meta-God's destruction, too busy celebrating, too busy saying good-bye to their companions, and the trains rhythm was akin to a lullaby after all that, but Alice didn't want to sleep, not when she knew it may last forever.
I'll close them for just a moment.
Alice's eyes slid shut, her breathing slowed, and that moment lasted forever.
