About Alice
Early Life
Alice was born in Ishgard to noble house of Pelletier, with a name that has been lost to the dust of time, as she was born a boy. She was very cleaver young girl who was immensely interested in the sciences and spent any money she got on a new book. This thirst for knowledge has gotten her into trouble when she tried to imitate her sister, who was a knight of Ishgard, and be a brave fighter. She tried to learn the spear in secret which resulted in an accident that her sister had to save her from.
The War
Several years after war broke out Alice packed her stuff from her work in Ishgard and went to apply in the year 1572. Her skill with machines was noticed so she got assigned in a research front to reverse engineer Garlean tech for Eorzean use and without the need of ceruleum. Unfortunately for Alice the magitek proves more difficult than the steam valves and gears she is used to, but the lead researcher, E'latru Rov, took Alice under her wing. Despite all this Alice always was on the back foot with magitek. Eventually a relationship grew between the two, but it was all too quickly torn away when Garleans came in and blew up the research facility and Alice got blown by the explosion into the ocean which is what allowed her to survive. An ancient fairy from Nym, named Iris. They got to know and trust each other and eventually Iris gave Alice a soul stone and Alice dedicated herself to searching for knowledge.
Modern Day
After learning the way of the scholars of old from sane tonberries and Alice left the ruins of the floating city with Iris for the search of the knowledge. She would do odd jobs for gil to pay for books and other supplies for her research. After her involvement in the war, she had a distaste of violence, but that didn’t stop her from taking jobs that involved killing. Once Ishgard reopened its borders, Alice managed to save enough gil to buy a small house there, which she filled with way too many books. Now when she isn't reading a book at her house, she's on the hunt for a new cafe to try.
