Likes: Spending quality time with Seraphina and Grace, flying, swimming, being outdoors in nature, animals, dancing, Spring/Summer weather, reading, singing and spending time with a close group of friends.
Dislikes: Injustice, cruelty, being the center of attention, being looked down upon, disrespectful behavior, unnecessary fights or risks, being embarrassed, rudeness and the cold (Thus she always wears warm enough clothes when outside).

Personality:
Alicia is bit quiet and reserved. She needs some time to warm up to people because she sometimes gets overwhelmed by other peoples’ expectations and expertise. (However, she is always polite when meeting new people.) She’s a bit of a perfectionist due to this.

Apart from this trait, she has shown to be able to be firm when needed (as in controlling a crew or her dragoness when needed). She's protective over the ones she loves most, be it dragon or human and will not hesitate to stand up for them or trying to protect them.

Furthermore, she is subtle and likes deeper meanings in things (like the meaning of names or lyrics of music). Also, when she feels comfortable around others, she is very kind and caring, even playful. She likes music and also sings and dances sometimes.

She also practises hand-to-hand combat with the help of her closest friend, Grace. She in turn is teaching Grace to dance better. She listens to her intuition but has an open mind for others’ input. She’s also a bit sensitive, indecisive, insecure and impatient. She can be prone to some jealously sometimes but is respectful and has a strong sense of justice.

Background:
Born into a family of aviators, her father was an aviator but has retired, going back to her mothers' farm to live out his life there. Her mother is a farmer and Alicia, like her brother, went to the aviators at the age of 9 instead of 7 because her mom needed both children home a bit longer to help her on the farm because their father was already an Aviator when he met her so he couldn't help with the farmwork. As she noticed the ambition for dragons in both her children, she finally let them join them. She of course got their promises that they will visit her when they could.  

Her older brother has taken over their fathers' dragon (a Parnassian named Perdicus) as he retired and this dragon is not a Longwing or a Xenica evidently. This always has hurt her and she even was a bit jealous because it slinked her chances of obtaining a dragon herself.
However, she has been growing up around dragons and has always had a deep passion and fascination with them since she can remember. Her mother unfortunately did not share this trait, she had never really gotten used to them. Her mother met Alicias father when he visited a farm her family worked at and they fell in love which resulted into two children.  

Alicia wanted to get a dragon from a very young age and did her outmost best to educate herself to reach her goal. After serving on her fathers’ dragon, she slipped slowly but surely into the criteria of becoming a Captain herself and fortunately, a Longwing egg was assigned to her at the age of 20. At the age of 21, her dragoness Seraphina hatched. Alicia has a nickname for her dragoness, Sera.

In the relationship department, she's a bit cryptic and does not talk about it casually, only to her friends if she feels comfortable. She has had 2 past relationships in her life, one with a man and one with a woman. Her relationship with this woman is not discussed that much, due to her being afraid how people could react to that. Both relationships ended mostly due her obligations to her life as an Aviator. Her love-life at the present time, she too would not quickly spreak about whether she fancies someone or not or when something might have changed. However, there might have been some slow developments ragarding a certain red head in her life ~

Her face is slim and pretty young-looking. She has an average mouth with a nice v-shape in the middle of the upperlip. She has avarage to slightly longer fingers and feet due to her height.
Furthermore, her skin tans more easily than the average British woman, giving her skin an almost olive toned look during warmer periods of the year.

Grace has some more muscles when comparing the two women.
