Then came the terrible night her family got taken into custody by AEGIS agents and she fled to the professor's lab, one step ahead of them. Desperate to help her escape, the professor gave her an "aetherial booster" he had been working on to increase her powers -- it worked all too well, letting her fly decades into the future before she could turn it off. Finding herself in the insane present day Halcyon city was a shock. It was an even bigger shock to find that somehow there was already an Alicia Monteverde here in this time... but she called herself Ambassador Bell now, and she'd... led a revolution on Isla Tormentosa, then come back as ambassador? Worked for AEGIS? Saved the world? Killed people? So many stories, she couldn't make sense of them all. Even when she tried to avoid them, people keep telling her about this person, this other self. Alicia thinks of her as the older sister she never knew or wanted, but she knows it's worse than that. Ambassador Bell is her. | Then came the terrible night her family got taken into custody by AEGIS agents and she fled to the professor's lab, one step ahead of them.

Her future self is Ambassador Bell, a powerful villain -- or antihero -- in Halcyon City who wears armor and has developed her powers to a frightening degree. She has been around and active since the Bronze Age as a major player and has fought in most of the secret wars on one side or the other. At some point she participated in the revolution on what is now the Republic of Tormentosa and got named Ambassador-at-Large afterwards, which gives her diplomatic immunity in Halcyon City as long as she isn't actively breaking the law. | Her future self is Ambassador Bell, a powerful villain -- or antihero -- in Halcyon City who wears armor and has developed her powers to a frightening degree.
