Genshin Impact has been making waves since its release, captivating players with its stunning visuals, captivating story, and diverse cast of characters. One of the characters that players encounter early on in the game is Alice, who remains shrouded in mystery. Despite being introduced early in the story, she has remained enigmatic, with players eager to know more about her past, motivations, and role in the game's overarching narrative.
Alice is a non-playable character in Genshin Impact who is heavily featured in the game's story. The lack of information about her only adds to her intrigue, with players speculating on her origins, relationships, and role in the game's unfolding story. In the latest Windblume event, Version 3.5 of Genshin Impact, players learned even more about Alice, adding further depth to her character. The game developers have demonstrated a keen attention to detail in crafting each character's backstory and lore, and Alice is no exception. With each new event, quest, or update, players learn more about the characters they encounter in Genshin Impact, making the game all the more engaging and immersive.
6 Alice Is Klee's Mom
Alice, the beloved mother of the charming and mischievous Klee in Genshin Impact, is a significant character in the game's narrative. Her relationship with her daughter has been extensively explored in various in-game events. For instance, the Midsummer Island Adventure in Version 1.6 was specifically designed to offer a fun-filled summer holiday for Klee. Alice played a significant role in organizing the event, inviting Klee's close friends to the Golden Apple Archipelago and secretly checking up on her daughter's well-being in Mondstadt. Alice is also credited with inventing Dodoco, the companion of Klee, a gadget inspired by Amber's Baron Bunny.
While Klee and Albedo call each other brother and sister, it is worth noting that Albedo refers to Alice as Aunt. This familial dynamic indicates that Albedo is more of an adopted brother to Klee than an adopted son, highlighting the depth of their relationship. Although both Alice and Klee belong to a non-human race that is similar to elves, with an extended lifespan, not much is known about Alice's physical appearance. Her husband, who is also an adventurer and Klee's father, is rarely mentioned in the game's narrative, thus his identity is unknown.
5 Alice Is The Author Of The Teyvat Travel Guide
The Adventurer's Guild publishes the Teyvat Travel Guide, a magazine that has released three volumes so far. Each volume features Alice's diary notes during her travels in Teyvat, covering Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma. As the author of the Teyvat Travel Guide, Alice aims to assist travelers in their exploration of the many lands of Teyvat. Besides providing detailed information about various regions within each nation, she also shares her experiences and opinions about certain characters in the game.
For instance, in the Mondstadt edition, Alice writes about her interaction with Lisa and how she perceives the Anemo Archon as undisciplined. In the Liyue edition, she mentions Zhongli as her travel companion and describes a strange encounter with a "weirdo" in Wangshu Inn, which is likely referring to Xiao. In the Inazuma edition, Alice mentions that Yae Miko used to cry so easily as a child and her persistent efforts to recruit Ayaka for her Teyvat Idols group. She also makes remarks about Yoimiya, Amber, and other characters throughout the series. The magazine lacks dated entries, making it challenging to determine when the events took place. Nevertheless, players who enjoy collecting archive entries can easily access each edition by completing certain quests or purchasing them.
4 Alice Is An Inventor
Alice is a multi-talented character in Genshin Impact, with skills in various fields such as being a strong mage, alchemy, and astrology. However, players have mostly seen her prowess as an inventor, known for crafting explosive devices, intricate puzzles, and toys such as Dodoco for Klee. She has also created several other items, including a phonograph, a long-distance communication device, and even the Temari game. The Teyvat Travel Guide frequently features Alice's ideas for new devices or eccentric concepts, some of which are met with silence when she shares them with others.
Although players have yet to interact with Alice in any Sumeru-related events or stories, Dori mentions in her 5th Character Story that Alice is one of her best suppliers for inventions. Dori receives new inventions from Alice often, which she sells in her store. In one of her voice lines, Dori notes that Alice's range of eccentric novelties knows no end, indicating that she particularly enjoys inventing among many other things.
3 Alice's Voice Actors Are Announced

For players who are interested in learning about the voice actors of Genshin Impact characters, Alice's voice actors for three languages have already been announced by the game, including Qi Zhang for Chinese, Rachel Kimsey for English, and Kikuko Inoue for Japanese. Rachel Kimsey is particularly known for her role as Wonder Woman in a variety of recent animated series, and as Claire Rieveldt in The Legend of Heroes. Kikuko Inoue is a renowned voice actress who has also played prominent roles in other popular video game franchises such as Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village, Rhea in Fire Emblem, and Ling in Arknights. She is also known for her portrayal of Lust, one of the main antagonists in Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
While some Genshin Impact voice actors also lend their voices to characters in the Honkai Impact, there is no indication that Alice's voice actors will feature in Honkai Impact. Despite speculation from fans that Alice may resemble Elysia when it comes to their voice actors, there are no overlaps.
2 Alice's Personality
Alice is primarily known throughout Teyvat for her immense magical powers, to the point where Albedo refers to her as a near-omnipotent sorceress. She is also renowned for her insatiable curiosity, evident in her interest in devising various crafts and concoctions, as well as her travels throughout Teyvat and possibly beyond, as indicated by her remarks about Rubicon and Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn or even Idols, none of which originally exist in Teyvat. Her mentioning terms outside the known Hoyoverse is an indication that she might be a fourth-wall-breaking individual.
In addition to her intellect and power, Alice has a destructive and impulsive side, as demonstrated by her actions in blowing up sections of Stormterror's Lair. Jean and Albedo also note that Klee takes after her mother in many ways. However, Alice also possesses a maternal instinct, caring for Klee's well-being and happiness even when she is not present. She has even expressed a desire for Albedo to refer to her as his mother, though he has thus far rejected the idea. Additionally, Alice has mentioned that Teyvat's borders have grown fragile over the past two years, implying that she possesses knowledge and abilities that rival even the gods themselves. In her remarks about the members of the Hexenzirkel, her self remark was that she never lies.
1 Alice Is A Member Of Hexenzirkel
In the Version 3.5 Update's Windblume Event, players get a glimpse of a secret society called Hexenzirkel, a group of powerful mages. Hexenzirkel can be translated as a Circle of Witches from German, however, can also mean a Coven. It's worth noting that not every witch or mage in Teyvat (such as Lisa or La Signora) is a member of this group, as Alice refers to the other members of Hexenzirkel as her sisters, indicating that they are not only fellow witches but also her closest friends. While their powers and abilities are shrouded in mystery, it's believed that the witches in the Hexenzirkel possess immense magical abilities, with some of them even having their own successors. Mona, for example, is considered to be one of the successors of the group. Little is known about the other members of Hexenzirkel, except for the names of a few and the initials of others. It is also known that the group gathers for formal tea parties.
However, the fact that Alice is a part of this secret society adds to the intrigue and mystery surrounding her character. The Hexenzirkel's true motives and goals are unknown, and it remains to be seen if their intentions are pure or if they harbor a darker agenda. While there's not much information available on the Hexenzirkel at the moment, it's clear that this group of witches is a significant part of Teyvat's lore and history. As players continue to explore the world of Genshin Impact, they may uncover more secrets about Alice and her fellow witches, shedding light on the true extent of their powers and the role they play in the game's overarching story.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
