It's nice to meet you, though it isn't the first time we've met. I'm Alice Margatroid, the seven-colored puppeteer. As you can see, I specialize in magic that uses dolls.
Introduction
It's nice to meet you, though it isn't the first time we've met. I'm Alice Margatroid, the seven-colored puppeteer. As you can see, I specialize in magic that uses dolls. Of course, I can use other magic too... I should be of much more help to you than that magician in the black-and-white dress. Let's work together to solve this unprecedented incident and protect Gensokyo.
Purple Heart
Resolving incidents is more tiring than you expected, isn't it?
Blue Heart
You're just a normal human, so you should be careful not to work yourself too hard.
Green Heart
You overworked yourself again... OK, fine. I'm fully aware of how stubborn you are now. But please, just ask me for help if you need it in the future.
Orange Heart
Heehee... I feel really happy that you're relying on me like this. But if you ever end up pushing yourself too hard again... Let's just say you won't like me when I'm angry.
Pink Heart
I was so worried about you that I ended up pushing myself too hard, even though that was exactly what I told you not to do... Yes, I know. It's so silly that I can't even laugh. I won't let it happen again, so please don't look so sad.
Summer
I made a doll that feels chilly to fight the summer heat. Just put it against your neck like this... Oh, this is so nice!
Login
Oh, you're back. I researched some new magic while you were away. I can't wait to try it out.
Enhancement
I'm now one step closer to realizing my dream of a fully autonomous doll.
Return
I just came back. Oh, you don't have to thank me. We're both just doing what's expected of us.
Home 1
Apparently, there's a doll that moves of its own accord right here in Gensokyo. I heard this from Marisa though, so who knows if it's actually true... But if it is... *giggle*
Home 2
I heard this from a shop owner, but somebody in black once said that my puppetry made me look like a lonely solo performer. Yes, it's exactly who you think it is.
Home 3
There's a heartless shrine maiden who forgot about her old friend just because they hadn't met up in a while... You won't forget me, right?
Reaction 1
Have my dolls caught your attention? Heehee, would you like to play with one?
Reaction 2
If you ever have anything on your mind, just let me know. Please don't hold back.
Reaction 3
Would you help me come up with a new script for a puppet show?
Task
Do your tasks promptly and properly. I don't think much of procrastinators.
Task Complete
Good job. Take a break before getting back to work.
Mail
My dolls brought some mail for you. You should take a look.
Errand Finished
Really, you should just let my dolls do the errands.
Start of Battle
Heehee, shall I start the puppet show?
Mid-Wave
It's still too early for the finale.
Victory
OK, dolls, gather around. It's time for the curtain call.
Defeat
Don't worry. Let's just start again from the top...

Character Information
Temperament: Hyou
Hyou refers to hail, which are large balls of ice that rain down from cumulus clouds. It is a fitting temperament for Alice, who at first glance seems to have a strong will with a calm spirit, but that is not all there is to her. Alice is endowed with Wood Phase, from the kindness she shows to others, and Moon Essence, showing her hesitation as a young magician.
The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood.
The cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of handling dolls
Alice's ability to manipulate puppets with magic strings is unique to her. While the dolls move like they are alive, that is all Alice's doing. She can move multiple dolls at the same time. The magic strings she uses are invisible, but because of their length, she cannot manipulate dolls that are too far away. While it is said that Alice has her defenses down when she is handling her dolls, you would have to get through her dolls to get to her, and well... That is easier said than done.
