Alice

Japanese: Inoue Kikuko (井上 喜久子)

Chinese: Zhang Qi (张琦)

Korean: Yeo Min-jeong (여민정)

English: Rachel Kimsey

Alice is an adventurer who belongs to a long-lived race and is at least 500 years old herself. She has allegedly seen the entire world and possibly even beyond, based on the description of Wings of Feasting, her reference to the Rubicon, and her narration of Aloy's Collected Miscellany in Dainsleif's place. While it is unclear what Alice does on her adventures besides satisfying her personal curiosity, she comments that "Teyvat's borders have grown fragile these past two years — looks like Mommy's going to have to get busy" as to why she had to quickly leave her family again after delivering the Wings of Feasting.

Like others were on other worlds, Alice was wary of Skirk's link to Surtalogi, but took the time to talk to Skirk and relaxed her attitude on that afterward. Skirk refers to her as the "Sustainer of the World's Borders," and states that Alice tolerates her presence but made her promise not to interfere too much with Teyvat's affairs. When Skirk asked why, Alice explained that many ecologists find it emotionally overwhelming to watch predators and prey in nature but still choose not to intervene — allowing the laws of nature to take precedence. In Alice's words, “some call this being a callous observer, but I think it's merciful at the same time.” Alice would eventually introduce Skirk to Dori, her regular purchaser, to whom Skirk drops in on occasion to vendor items when she needs Mora.

Alice's immense magical prowess has led Albedo to call her a "near-omnipotent sorceress," while Diluc states that she is the only other person besides Venti, the mortal form of the Anemo Archon Barbatos, who could have arranged the events at the Golden Apple Archipelago during Midsummer Island Adventure. Mona also speaks favorably of Alice's skillset and sought out Alice's successor — Klee — in hopes that their combined knowledge would be enough to read the Traveler's fate, failing to anticipate the possibility that Alice had not passed any of her magical skills on to Klee, or that she would be a young child. She also states that the Narukami Pillars on Yashiori Island, which suppress the Tatarigami and were allegedly created by the Raiden Shogun, were created with techniques that are "quite familiar to ."

Alice touts a commendable number of skills and contributions to the world of Teyvat, which includes but is not limited to:

• Astrology

• Alchemy

• Creating puzzles and Hydro Barriers throughout the Golden Apple Archipelago

• Explosives-crafting

• Creating Dodoco, an explosive doll which she taught Klee how to make

• Inventing a phonograph

• Inventing the Temari game

• Potion-concocting

• Testing various scientific endeavors and engineering projects, although most of her known attempts ended in failure

• Inventing a long-distance instant communication device

Alice became acquainted with the Khaenri'ahn alchemist Rhinedottir at an unknown point in the past, along with other witches in Hexenzirkel. The two have a close enough bond that Rhinedottir later sent Albedo, her apprentice and creation, to seek Alice out for help with his final assignment. Alice, in turn, brought him to the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt, believing they had the resources to build a large research lab for him.

Alice became acquainted with Yae Miko at some point, calling the over 500-year-old kitsune a "little girl" and recounts in the Inazuma edition of the Teyvat Travel Guide how easy it was to make Miko cry. Alice also mentions Asase Hibiki as "that killjoy shrine maiden" and Neko as "that fat cat," further indicating that she traveled to Inazuma after the cataclysm 500 years ago.

Sometime after the cataclysm, Alice met the Oceanid Idyia in Sumeru, who had fled Fontaine after the death of the previous Hydro Archon Egeria. Alice granted her wish to be away from everyone else and sent her to the desert with the Veluriyam Mirage domain.

When Hexenzirkel member I. Ivanovna N., also known by the codename "J", was about to get married, Alice and the other Hexenzirkel members sent her an invitation in the form of a riddle to meet with them.

Fifty years ago, Alice made a pact with her friend and rival, Barbeloth, resulting in Alice taking possession of her diary, and later leaving it in Klee's care.

At some point in time, Alice met Klee's father, another renowned adventurer, during her travels. They had Klee, and decided to stay in Mondstadt for a while to raise her. Around this time, Albedo sought her out at Rhinedottir's behest, leading Alice to take the boy in and insist on treating each other as a "real family," further insisting that Albedo refer to her as "mother." Alice also imparted Barbara with the "Idol Magazine," inspiring the young deaconess to become an "idol" for Alice's "Teyvat Idols!" group, although the group never came to fruition due to recruitment troubles.

Alice also met Dori at some point and became her first supplier. Dori always speaks highly of her and is surprisingly generous when it comes to sending Mora back to her. On the other hand, Alice also values Dori highly, such as when she narrated Dori's Collected Miscellany, and one of her self-proclaimed titles is "Supplier to the Renowned Lord Sangemah Bay."

Sometime after Crepus died four years before the game's start, Klee noticed Diluc's disappearance, which prompted Alice to look into the matter. After finding out about Crepus' passing, Alice sent Diluc a lengthy letter to express her condolences and give him words of encouragement. Three years before the game's start, Alice and Klee's father went to travel "somewhere dangerous and far away," and entrusted Klee to Albedo and the Knights of Favonius.

Alice began writing the Teyvat Travel Guide in the recent past, documenting notable areas and features in her travels, although its highly personal and subjective writing style makes the work read more like her personal diary rather than an actual travel guide. The Mondstadt and Liyue editions began circulating some time ago, as Jifang of the Wanwen Bookhouse claims the Liyue edition has been out-of-print for some time due to its unpopularity.

The Mondstadt edition was likely written shortly after Alice's arrival in Mondstadt, before raising Klee. During that time, she observed Amber's Baron Bunny and was inspired to build an explosive doll, which eventually became known as Dodoco. She also became known for performing aerobatic stunts after launching herself with an Anemo Slime, only to receive a Gliding Violation from Jean.

While writing the Liyue edition, Alice became acquainted with Zhongli, whom she described as "the sternest person" she knows. She also cured Echo of his stutter, but the potion's side-effects cause him to be compelled to perfectly imitate those around him, which he is still afflicted by to this day.

While the Inazuma edition was first published during the Irodori Festival, its contents set Alice's experiences as occurring shortly before the outbreak of war a year ago. She attempted to recruit Kamisato Ayaka for "Teyvat Idols!" only to be rebuffed at least six times, and befriended Yoimiya.
