Alice
“The Knight of Wonderland”
Alice was Ryder’s first imaginary muse. When Ryder was being held in a room, awaiting his journey home, Alice was already there, sitting with him, the two engrossed in a copy of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Despite sharing the same name as the book’s protagonist, this Alice is no reflection of the classic character—she is something entirely otherworldly, a product of Ryder’s nascent powers.
Towering over most at an unnerving 6’6”, Alice’s height is largely due to her elongated lower body. Her limbs seem unnaturally stretched, with arms so long that her fingertips graze her knees when she stands tall. Her appearance is a collection of strange proportions that never quite feel right. Her bright blue eyes are set wide apart, her nose small and delicate, while her mouth stretches unnervingly wide, often fixed in a disconcerting, upturned smile.
Her sandy blonde hair cascades down to her knees, matching the length of her eerie figure. Dressed in an exaggerated, puffy blue gown reminiscent of Victorian sketches—though distorted and blown out of proportion—Alice presents an unsettling vision. Upon her head sits a crown of white and red roses, a symbol of innocence and beauty, contrasted sharply by her odd appearance.
Yet, despite her outward horror, Alice is a curious soul. Her wide-eyed fascination with the world led her to ask endless questions, as though she was trying to grasp every fragment of reality she found herself in. Her eerie presence is tempered by this innocent curiosity, making her not quite a nightmare, but something caught between wonder and unease.
