==Stats== ===Attributes=== Aspect 0 (5 AMPs) Domain 5 (10 DMPs) Realm 0 (5 RMPs) Spirit 1 (5 SMPs) ===Wound Levels=== *2 Surface *1 Serious *1 Deadly ===Gifts=== ====Immortal (The Gift of Amaranth)==== :Having completely internalised the concept of fragility, Alice has become effectively indestructible. Any attempt to mar her form results in blows splashing through her with the barest ripple. Similarly, as imperishable crystal, Alice does not age, nor is she subject to the caustic vicissitudes of the elements. She draws this unearthly power from her utter and complete self-reliance: as long as she exists to reflect on herself, she must continue to exist. It can be disrupted only if contemplation of the self - not just for Alice, but for the world - is no longer possible. ====Through the Looking Glass (The Gift of the Rabbit)==== :Having gone through the looking glass once, Alice now treats all reflective surfaces as portals to each other, effectively recognising no distance between these surfaces. To her, all reflections are contiguous and permeable; she can dive into a raindrop and emerge from your rear-view mirror, or a dark television screen. As this power relies entirely on her unique perspective, she cannot bring anyone through these portals with her. ;5 (Lesser Destruction of Distances +1 automatic -3 self-only -3 one trick +1 uncommon, 1 point ===Handicaps=== ====Affiliation==== =====Code of the Dark===== *Humans should destroy themselves, individually. *Humanity should destroy itself, collectively, except for a few toys. *Ugliness to human eyes shows one is worthy. ====Moon-struck==== *Restriction: Cannot harm or impede those whose perspectives are fractured and unique. ====Duty-bound==== *Restriction: Once a year, Alice must gather all the reflected light in the world and use these sparks of radiance to restore the dimming light of the Milky Way - it's part of her contribution to the Valde Bellum ====The Mirror Has No Faces==== *Restriction: A mirror reflects everything but itself, and Alice is all mirrors. She has no reflection, and her image cannot be captured. ====Urban legend==== *Restriction: Alice can be summoned by the following ritual: stand before a candlelit mirror. Immediately after the last stroke of midnight, blow out the candles, stare into your own reflection, and chant three times, "Bloody Mary". The summoning compunction is a holdover from a previous Power of Glass. It does not, however, force Alice to show mercy or consideration to her summoners, and when summoned she is likely to be annoyed. ====Limits==== *Focus: Kay's Eye, a small handheld vanity mirror made of troll-blown glass, which contains the essence of her magic. 5 DMP. ===Virtue=== Beauty. Alice's obsession with appearances while she was mortal has blossomed into a supernatural glamour. Nothing can contrive to make Alice appear anything but hauntingly beautiful. When poised and composed, she seems like a sculpture in her doll-like perfection; in dishabille she is a figure of tremendous poignancy, combining fell loveliness and moving vulnerability. ===Bonds=== *4 Her Estate *3 Kay's Eye *3 'Keeping up appearances' *3 Her Familia *2 The privileged position of the mad *5 points yet to be assigned ===Anchors=== ''None'' *None. Alice has yet to find a mortal deserving of her trust, nor has she felt the need for one. *2 Anchors
