Appearance: She has long hair down to the middle of her back, shorter at the front and sides. Her hair is pale strawberry blonde in color. Her eyes are a rare and striking red as one might expect from someone of the sheikah bloodline. However, no one in her family, immediate or extended, shares this trait. While no princess Alicia is considered a decently attractive and healthy young woman. She is also very average for a Hylian and can be forgettable despite being pretty and red eyed.

Alicia favors simple dresses preferably in white, form-fitting at the torso and flowing at the legs and arms. Should an occasion call for more style or protection from the elements Alicia has a favorite red coat complete with hood. She wears soft tan moccasins when she must but would rather go barefoot and enjoy the feel of the earth. She must wear spectacles in order to see well and owns a masterfully crafted pair with thin gold rims. She also wears a simple golden puzzle piece suspended on a thin chain around her neck. Her tidy pouch is usually tucked into her dress but can be worn around her neck as well.

Personality:
Alicia has a mild personality and is known as a really nice person but is not very social. She loves art and literature especially and spends much of her time hidden away at the library. This does not mean she detests the outdoors in fact she often makes excuses to go out almost literally into the wilds if she can. At the very least she likes to visit her family at their farm, though she does have a small home in hyrule castle town.

Alicia is intelligent and taking classes to learn magic but she lacks ambition. She is also practical and can be resourceful, most notably using her impressive healing magic as a solid source of income. Depending on the circumstances Alicia values compassion over wealth and has been known to waive the usual fee for healing. She also has a generous nature usually in the form of gifting her paintings and other art and accepts little or no compensation. She tries to be fair minded and polite but she is somewhat socially awkward. Alicia truly enjoys helping others and learning new things even if she has no great plans to make something of herself.

Background:
Alicia was born a simple girl to a simple farming family. She has two older brothers and a sister as well as two younger sisters and a brother. Her parents and grandparents are still alive and well and she often visits them. Alicia's life has off been complicated by one simple fact, however. Alicia has visions of the future. The visions started when she was quite young and were mistaken for bad dreams. Bad dreams became night terrors and it became difficult for her to sleep at all. When she was four Ganon started his war in the south. It was during this time that disturbing similarities were noted between Alicia's past dreams and events currently happening in southern hyrule. She was taken to hyrule castle town to see if anything could be done for her.

In an unusual twist of fate, Alicia's red eyes and visions of the war got her mistaken for the child in a minor prophesy. It would be years before the mistake was realized and during that time Alicia gained the benefit of a top notch noble education. She learned the basics of a wide variety of things and was well taken care of during this time. Some things like fencing and archery never saw practical use but the fundamentals of magic and art led to more advanced studies later in life. It was also discovered that Alicia had great potential in the healing arts, in fact she was unnaturally gifted. The first spell she mastered was Life, an especially impressive feat.

And eventually, even as the war stagnated, the true child forseen in the prophesy appeared. It was a terribly awkward moment but it was hard to deny the blind sheikah that actually had some degree of control over her visions was who they were looking for. Alicia had no hard feeling over the mixup, she was instead grateful that she had gotten the opportunities she had and that they had found who they were looking for.

Having grown accustomed to life in castle town Alicia decided to stay and make it her home. She offered her skills as a healer to help cover expenses and she began honing her artistic skills. She also found some work at the grand library where she already spent much of her time. With a home of her own and decent income Alicia decided to enroll in school and continue her education in the field of magic.

Despite her reclusive nature Alicia has earned some renown for her healing and artistic ability. She even has some friends in spite of her shyness and awkwardness. Some of them don't even mind the disturbing visions she still has and which trouble her sleep to this day. the elixers, at least, help her sleep through the less horrific dreams.
