< Reliable;; Being the innovative, stubborn person she is, Alice will get done whatever it is she's tasked with, a valuable asset for her fellow teachers to take advantage of. < Innovative;; When backed into a corner, rather than give up, Alice is the type to turn her mind towards unexpected solutions to improvise a solution that might even bring her an advantage. < Level-headed;; Even if the chips are down and the enemy closing in, Alice won't get flustered, examining her options calmly before making her decision as to what to do next. < Flexible;; Alice may start every morning with a definite goal in mind, but she's not opposed to having a wrench thrown into her plans if it's a good challenge with the possibility of a reward at the end. < Cautious;; While Alice won't over-analyze a plan searching for all the possible ways it could go wrong, she by no means makes rash moves that could backfire on her, especially in matters of the heart. < Patient;; Rather like a cat awaiting a mouse to emerge from its hole, Alice will wait for however long it takes for her to achieve results, observing until the moment arrives to pounce. > Sharp-tongued;; Alice has a tongue like a rapier, and while she will draw it back for people it would behoove her to not get on the wrong side of, she can be downright vicious when unleashing it on someone. > Short-tempered;;Alice might have good control of her fiery temper, but she is actually rather easy to anger, and when she is, her "passionate Irish blood" ensures she doesn't stop until she's gotten all the anger out. > Single-minded;; When Alice sets her sights on something, she's not going to stop until she's accomplished whatever it is she set out to do, pursuing her goal with such determination that she will sometimes let other opportunities pass her by. > Prideful;; Alice's grandmother imparted a fierce dignity into her, and while it hasn't turned her arrogant, she's also ill-suited to swallowing any perceived disrespect to her or her family name. > Two-faced;; There are precious few people Alice holds dear enough to never betray, and unless she counts someone in that number, she has no problem with turning traitor. > Controlling;; Alice is actually a bit of a control freak, and while she can take orders with barely a blink of an eye, she would rather take command of a situation than risk herself becoming someone else's puppet. > Independent;; Sure, Alice can take orders, and okay, she can work with others, but with her strong will, she's more likely to do something rash when with someone else than she is alone or in command of things. |

> Alice teaches her own variety of classes at the University of Clearwater, what she calls Historical Theology - namely, she takes different religions and shows how they have shaped the movements of empires and affected history. She is also a researcher and amateur anthropologist who specializes in old Nordic customs. > Alice is a blank Fighter who is prone to swapping Sacrifices often since she makes a point to only be a stand-in for units until they find their other half, at which point she bows out of the unit. > Alice still has her ears and fluffy tail and is damn proud of it. Anyone who tries to say anything to her about them will get a death glare about it, the woman very much proud of the fact she has kept her ears and tails as long as she has. She is heterosexual in nature, having been brought up that her duty to her family was to have a child, and as such, any feelings she might have for her own sex are immediately muted to fulfill her familial duty. < Alice was brought up by her grandmother for the most part, a staunch old girl from England who hailed back to the old Vikings. The Isengard family is an old name, once nobility and considered the king's right hand man, but then the Vikings declined in power, as did the Isengards. The Isengards themselves ended up being stuck in England, their boats burned, and they have lived there ever since. Alice's mother was a lawyer who had no time for her once her father passed away when she was three, so she spent much of her time at her grandmother's house learning the old ways. She was reared to be prideful, to act decisively, and her grandmother actually ended up finding a sacrifice for her when she was eight, teaching her how to spell-battle and how to obey a sacrifice properly. She was taught that a fighter was disposable and that a sacrifice loving his or her fighter was pointless since they would only leave when they found their true partner - the Isengards had a long history of being blanks, often serving as the stand-ins for the royal family until their other halves could be found, and not even the many generations since then could dull that trait. When Alice turned fourteen, her grandmother passed away, leaving the girl more or less alone in the world and with everything she owned, to be placed in a trust she would receive an allowance from when she turned eighteen and would gain full access to when she turned twenty-one. Her mother took the girl back, knowing that Alice could and would take care of herself, but there was a catch. The woman lived in Clearwater, and that meant that Alice would have to leave her home behind. The girl was permitted to stay with a family friend for a few days, long enough for the funeral, and then she was flown away to Clearwater and enrolled in Rosewood Academy, albeit it under her birth name, Dawn. Alice immediately make a point of insisting her name was actually Alice - the one her grandmother had given her - rather than Dawn. She was a powerful fighter, able to take a good deal of damage before she would stagger, and she accepted her sacrifices' commands while taking damage for them expertly. When she graduated, she went back to England for a while, fully intending on following in her grandmother's footsteps, only to find that once she got into her mother country, she didn't quite fit in. She spent a couple years studying in college, but she felt a stirring restlessness that nothing could quite seem to solve. And then she discovered a note her grandmother had left her, the old woman telling her that the Isengards were an old family of warriors, of which Alice was the last, and that she was well on her way to redeeming her father in the eyes of the gods for his sin of marrying an outsider and betraying sacred secrets of their ways, but she needed to get stronger before that could happen. More importantly, however, she'd have to do it on her own terms, and find a way to continue the family name. Tasked with this duty, Alice quit her job as a teacher's aide to the chair of the history department of the college she attended, instead moving back to Clearwater and devoting all of her energy into getting a teaching certificate. She just knew that her destiny lay with Avalon, the only place for her to get stronger and perhaps find a sacrifice strong enough for her to keep rather than swap out repeatedly, and as soon as she obtained her certificate, she applied to be the history teacher, and got the job. This may be her first year teaching, but she's no pushover, and she won't stand for any mischief, that's one thing for sure. |
