Alright, onto day two (except I took too long to write this)! I’m going to be doing each member’s day with a page of sketches because why not? So we’re starting with the vocalist, obviously. Which is Alice Rose!
While not the initial founder of the band (or the concept at all. That goes to Natsumi and Yumeru!), she’s certainly at the core of it now. She tends to seem to be calm, collected, and difficult to read, but she’s put up this act as a way to push people away from her.
She’s notorious for overworking herself, and combined with the fact that she typically gets easily exhausted due to her overall fragile health and refuses to let people get close enough to her to realize the problem, it’s difficult to deal with her at times. Her bandmates are helping her break this habit, because after a few occasions of her passing out after a live, they realized it needs to stop before it gets worse.
Despite being annoyingly stubborn and reckless at times, she is still possible to get along with, evidenced by the fact that she’s quite close with all of her bandmates (although she occasionally clashes with Kaida).
Also, she’s from the US! I haven’t decided where, but it isn’t that important, since she moved to Japan when she was about 5 years old. She is completely fluent in English still though, since it’s still the main language spoken within her family. It won’t be super important that she speaks two languages, but it is a thing to know.
She spends a lot of her free time gardening, and generally prefers plants over people for company. Except in the case of her bandmates, which are the only people she actively wants to be around. (And don’t tell anyone, but sometimes she talks to her plants if she has things she doesn’t want to tell people or when she’s working on song lyrics.) She’s pretty knowledgeable on plants in general, and if it weren’t for that, Tricyrtis wouldn’t have the name is has!
I hope that wasn’t overwhelming to read, I just REALLY like talking about my characters. Especially Alice. There are some little details I left out (her height, birthday, etc) but those can be found in her section of the Tricyrtis main document!
And for the fun fact(s?) here: the concept for her came to me in a dream (as well as one other member who will be coming later) and I had to scramble to make notes about her before I forgot, and my girlfriend was the one who said she should be named Alice and that stuck with her since!
