Queen of the Insect Tribes (Ant)

Appearance:

• Long black hair
• Piercing black eyes that seem to see through everything

• Knows that Arita's loyalty, Kiris's intellect, and Ryuji's combat prowess are all essential to the kingdom

Alicia's goal isn't just for them to be friends, but for them to recognize each other's strengths and learn to delegate tasks. To this end, she occasionally assigns the three to the same job on purpose, though the results are usually disastrous.

Because Arita and Kiris have the worst relationship, she focuses on them, but she hasn't forgotten Ryuji. In fact, if Ryuji were a bit smarter, she would have asked him to be the mediator.

• Finds easy to talk to
• A personal favorite
