Alice Thymefield

Gender: Female Birthday: August 30 Age: 19 Affiliations: Spook Shack, Thymefield Family, Celestia School for Girls, TOPS, Safety Inspection Team Species: Thiren (Netherland Dwarf rabbit) Important people:

• Ukinami Yuzuha: Close friend and fellow Spook Shack member who introduced Alice to the group. Mischievous red-haired girl with long twin braids, green eyes, and a playful personality; loves pranking Alice with scary stories and ghost tales despite (or because of) Alice ’s easy fright.

• Komano Manato: Spook Shack member and Yuzuha’s childhood friend. Muscular red-haired coyote Thiren, reliable and protective, often acts as the group’s steady anchor.

• Lucia Elowen: Spook Shack member. Enthusiastic Ethereal researcher and storyteller from a Nightwatcher tribe; curious, friendly, and deeply interested in Hollow phenomena.

• Yidhari Murphy: Spook Shack member. Laid-back, soft-spoken Proxy with a quiet, almost detached demeanor; skilled and dependable in the field.

• Luciana de Montefio (Lucy): Former classmate from Celestia School for Girls. A confident, somewhat rebellious blonde girl with a distinctive hairstyle. The two remain on friendly terms and occasionally keep in touch, though their contact is sporadic and not particularly intense.

• Lionel Thymefield (father, deceased): Kind Ether scientist and skilled surfer. Died protecting a young Yuzuha after discovering illegal human experiments at a Porcelumex facility; his death was covered up as a fatigue-related car accident.

• Alice ’s grandfather: Elderly, currently bedridden former family head who still supports her decisions.

• Alice ’s mother(deceased).

Appearance: Alice has the refined yet practical look of a high-class schoolgirl. Soft blonde hair is tied into neat low twintails secured by a pink bow between her fluffy rabbit ears, with long strands framing her face and a small ahoge on top. She possesses heterochromatic eyes (one warm orange-red, one golden) and a gentle, slightly nervous expression.

Her outfit closely resembles a modernized school uniform: a crisp white long-sleeved blouse with black harness straps, glowing green circular lights, and a large black bow at the chest accented by a metallic emblem and red cords. The blouse is tightly fitted over her notably large, full bust, which moves and bounces quite noticeably with every step or sudden movement. She wears a short dark-green pleated skirt, sheer black tights, and sporty white-and-red sneakers with chunky soles. A blue-hilted rapier is usually held in her right hand. Overall, her appearance balances elegant nobility with youthful schoolgirl practicality, always kept meticulously neat and symmetrical.

Personality: Alice is polite, soft-spoken, and deeply conscious of etiquette and appearances. She strives hard to always act “lady-like,” carefully avoiding any rude language, slang, or swearing. When she is forced to repeat or acknowledge a swear word, she replaces it with a delicate “humph!” and quickly changes the subject, clearly embarrassed.

She has a genuine psychological condition surrounding symmetry: she feels strong discomfort, anxiety, or even mild distress when faced with asymmetrical objects, patterns, or situations. Whenever possible she will insist on correcting or adjusting things until they become symmetrical, often rearranging items, folding clothes in perfect pairs, or commenting on uneven designs. This obsession stems from childhood trauma and has become an almost compulsive part of her behavior.

Despite her noble upbringing, she is naturally timid and easily startled — especially by ghost stories, sudden noises, or anything supernatural — yet her curiosity about the unknown frequently overcomes her fear. Once she sets her mind on a goal, however, she becomes remarkably determined and stubborn, refusing to back down even when frightened. She values her friends deeply and is willing to make great personal sacrifices for them, though she often downplays her own kindness. Under pressure she can become flustered and stammer, but she always tries to recover her composure and present herself properly.

Lore: Alice is one of the last remaining members of the prestigious Thymefield Family, an old New Eridu noble lineage renowned for its contributions to Ether science and technology. The family’s wealth and status largely came from holding the patent on one of the most widely used anti-corruption medicines on the market.

As a child, Alice lost one of her treasured symmetrical Sailor Boo hairpins during a visit to a Porcelumex research facility. Her father, Lionel, went back alone to retrieve it. While searching, he discovered a young Yuzuha being used in illegal human experiments. He rescued her at the cost of his own life, dying from gunshot wounds after ensuring her escape. Porcelumex covered up the truth, staging his death as a simple car accident caused by fatigue. Alice , who had playfully told her father he could not come home until he found the hairpin, blamed herself for years and developed a deep, almost obsessive need for symmetry — believing that asymmetry could invite disaster.

Her mother later passed away as well, leaving Alice under the care of her ailing grandfather and the family staff. She attended Celestia School for Girls, excelling in both academics and fencing while striving to uphold the family’s noble image despite her timid nature.

Years later, during the events surrounding the Safety Inspection Team and Porcelumex’s schemes, Alice learned the truth about her father’s sacrifice. To secure the help needed to rescue Yuzuha and expose the corporation’s crimes, she offered the family’s valuable anti-corruption medicine patent. After the successful resolution of the incident, and with her grandfather’s blessing, she deliberately released the patent to the public rather than handing exclusive rights to Porcelumex. This decision stripped the family of its main source of income and forced the sale or donation of many expensive assets, accelerating the Thymefields’ decline.

Despite the heavy personal and familial cost, Alice remains determined to revive the family’s honor through her own strength, skill, and unwavering sense of justice. She continues to study Ether science, hone her fencing, and investigate supernatural mysteries as a member of Spook Shack, balancing her refined upbringing with a genuine, if easily startled, curiosity about the unknown.

Likes & Dislikes:

• Likes: Perfect symmetry in all things, elegant tea time, fencing practice, reading about Ether science and classical literature, tidy and orderly environments, gentle classical music, well-mannered conversation, cute symmetrical accessories (especially matching pairs), and spending quiet time with trusted friends. She loves the number 8 and the letters "A" and "T" because of their symmetry.

• Dislikes: Anything asymmetrical or uneven, sudden loud noises, ghost stories that catch her off-guard (even though she is secretly curious), rude or vulgar language, messy rooms, poorly folded clothes, being the center of attention when unprepared, and the feeling of having failed her family’s name. Furthermore, if someone tells her a horror or ghost story, Alice will ask the person to stop because she is terrified of scary things. Even lightning makes her scream like a little girl, and she has a very high-pitched scream.
