General Description: Alice stands at four feet three inches tall and weights an even seventy pounds. Her build is slim and get muscular due to the child's affinity for Taijutsu. Her hair is light blond naturally in color and parted down the middle; going down to her shoulders and stopping in a straight line around her head. Her eyes are light blue in color, standing out against her darkly tanned colored flesh.
Her normal outfit consisted of a white tank top, white shorts, and black shinobi sandals. Alice has a strange branding symbol on her left hand; something she had no remembrance of receiving, but which is there nonetheless. She normally doesn't bother hiding it, as she cannot remember if she should or not.
About You!
Personality: On the outside she is like an emotionless shell. She is the perfect shinobi in that way and at such a young age. She can come across as cruel, heartless. Like she is nothing more than a machine or tool to be used for the 'greater good' or a desired out-come.
However, that's barely the scratch on the surface. There is so much more to the child than just the lack of emotions she shows others. She is a kind child deep down, caring and exceptionally loyal: the sort of loyalty that would have her marching into battle with the odds being a hundred against her just because the person she truly cared even thought of asking such a task of her. It's loyalty down to its very deepest and darkest core.
Alice, when she trusts someone, opens up like a book: outside of being kind, caring, and exceptionally loyal she's also bubbly and sweet. Adorable really once you get to know her and once she allows her true colors and nature to shine.
She is very child minded in the way she views things: sort of like a tainted black and white viewing of the world around her and how things should be. This child mindedness can be tainted even further depending on the views of those she is loyal to: whether they be evil or good she will follow them blindly.
Quiet. That has to be the most noticeable trait for the child. Even as a baby she hardly made a peep, choosing to try and communicate in other ways then through crying or other vocalized behaviors.
Smart. Alice catches on quickly to things, and despite her age she isn't confused by 'adult' conversations; though she plays well like she has no idea what's going on. It's a trait that's proved useful from time to time, when she's happened to over hear the right thing, and been able to tell someone she can trust what's going on, or what is going to happen.
Fluid. Alice loves to dance, and it's as much of her personality as anything. Dancing, acrobatics, grace. She's a fluid child who likes to be constantly in motion. Even when she's sitting still it is as if she's continuing to move; a slight sway, a ripple in her clothing, or her hair blowing in the wind. That isn't to say that she cannot be still, as she can quite easily especially when studying or reading, but she prefers movement far more, even if it's only a little bit.
Likes: Candy! Gummy bears, lollipops, pocky, you name it and she will eat it. Though she's not completely a candy junky it does take up the majority of her favorites; though she also has shown that she loves fruit and berries of all kinds, along with jerky.
Bright colors always fall beneath one of her likes: yellows, blues top the charts, but pinks, and greens don't fall far behind.
Learning. Alice yearns to learn anything and everything that she can. Like her mother, Alice is a very fast learner, and enjoys the fact that there is an abundance of knowledge welcome to her at all times.
Family. Alice, from the day that she was born, has been surrounded by the love and safety of her family; it's all she had known until the tragedy struck. Therefore it causes her to be very protective of her family or those she now considers such, while making her shy around almost anyone else. Her family is the center of her life, after all.
Fire. Out of all of the elements fire would have to be Alice's favorite. She takes to fire like a fish to water, and is often, lovingly, referred to as a dancing flame.
Music! It goes hand in hand with her dancing. Music is calming and peaceful for Alice, even if it has an upbeat or faster beat. She can listen to music for hours and never become bored of it.
Dislikes: Dark colors. Yup, even the usual black that most shinobi wear is something Alice avoids. She has even gone so far as to say that she would be the first ninja in the world to go around wearing white!
Bullies. There is just something about those who pick on the weak and defenseless that rubs Alice wrong. She knows that she is strong compared to most children due to her upbringing and Taijutsu training, but never dreamed of using it to bully someone. She sees those who use their abilities to bully or tease the weak without reason as unworthy of the power they possess. It has caused her to go so far as to stand up for and protect those she has found being bullied, even if she didn't know the person.
Motivations: Her family. It's really as simple as that. She wants to grow up to be as strong as the other members of her family, if not stronger. She knows that while they protect her now because of how young she is, that one day the roles will be reversed and the day will come that she will need to protect them. Therefore, even though she's only ten, she still studies and tries her hardest to remember everything that is taught to her.
Doing her best also is a motivation in itself. She knows what she will one day be capable of, and knowing that she strives to push herself as hard and fast as she possibly can, knowing that defeat is never the answer. Because of this she will never deny or turn down a task; always willing to try something at least once, no matter how hard it might look.
Fears: Loss. Alice loves her family completely; they're what she has known since the day she was born. Therefore, even at her young age, she is smart enough to realize that no one lives forever, and so the idea of no longer being able to see or speak with one of her family members is a frightening one.
Alice also fears disappointing her friends and family. She wants them to be proud of her, to be proud of her success and choices in life, and the idea of disappointing them, or causing them to be upset over a choice she has made is also a major fear for the young girl, so much so that it causes her to be far less impulsive then most children and to think about the things she says and does before she says and does them.
History: What would you do if everything you loved and held dearly to you was suddenly taken away? What would you do if you couldn't remember it? Thoughts, memories, ideas, all gone because of some unknown means just to leave you stranded in a world that only partly made sense? That is essentially Alice's life now. Lost in a world she cannot understand with thoughts suppressed that she would likely never be able to know again.
However, this was not always such. Her life was not always such a confusing and confounding thing.
Alice had a loving mother and a loving father. They dotted on her as anyone did a child they cared for, and she was always provided for. Training and teachings came daily as she was taught to grow, taught to protect the village she called home. When her father wasn't busy working with her with training and teachings her mother spent time turning her into the up-most proper female that she could. Alice was taught early how to act, how to speak, how to be polite and use manners.
However, hardship hit the family quite early on in Alice's life. Her mother and father took ill; an unknown sickness killing them slowly but surely. Alice was left alone; found days later when the stench of the rotting bodies reached the neighbors house and they called the authorities to come investigate.
However, before they could reach Alice, she was taken by a man cloaked in shadows. Restrained in a way she couldn't get out of she was dragged off minutes before what would have been help arrived. She became the man's servant, but not before being branded on her hand with a specialized seal that, were she to escape by some means would erase all of her memories through a violent and powerful genjutsu. Alice served the man for a very long time, knowing nothing else but the treatment she received.
However, soon this man too became sick and the sicker he got the weaker the power he held over her got. There were timed lapses in this, and after careful planning Alice made her escape. However, as she did so the genjutsu came into effect causing her to lose not only her memories of the man but any past memories at all outside of her name: Alice.
Alice wandered for days until, sick and weak, she stumbled across the village: the same village she had been taken from all of that unknown time ago. After finding some scraps of food and water Alice began her life as a street-child: unaware of all of the budding power hidden within her, and waiting to be unlocked and tapped into.
RP Sample: Alice darted out from the darkened alleyway that she had been hidden within. She knew she had to time what she was about to do precisely or else she would fail and end up going hungry for another night. It was always best to wait to the evening hours to attempt to steal one of the cast-off loaves of bread that no one wanted. The merchants weren't paying as much attention to their wares and food they were selling at this point simply because no one would want the going stale bread.
When Alice reached the mouth of the alley way she didn't hesitate, knowing that if she did she would never complete her task. Instead, she darted forward while ducking down low. She snuck her way past the cart quickly, hand flashing out blinding to grasp at anything she could reach. Her hand met the feeling of a hard crust that gave way to a softer interior: bread! She yanked it free and then turned, darting back off into the alley way as she heard the shouts of "Hey! Stop that bart!" behind her.
Alice didn't stop there of course and instead used the familiar tunnel of alley ways to dart from one to the other, using the confusing maze of them all to mask where she was going. Once she reached what was home, a small box that was rather cozy since she had padded it with discarded cotton strips and covered it in cloth, she slipped inside.
Her heart was beating quickly in her chest and it took all of her concentration to keep herself from breathing like she had been running: she didn't want anyone to realize where she was hidden in case one of the shinobi of the village had happened to see her and take to following her. Seconds passed in agonizing slowness as she continued to clutch her prize, a small loaf of bread, between her two tiny hands.
When she got to sixty seconds and still nothing had happened she brought the bread to her lips and tore off a chunk; not chewing fast enough before she was repeating the process. It was sweet relief to feel something hit her empty stomach.
