Princess Alice is the third and current sovereign princess of Centralia.

Alice the Everchild
Despite being an extremely powerful incorporeal being from the distant planet Asteria, Princess Alice always appears on Earth as a young human girl. The Princess's eternal youth and immaturity is her defining feature: she never shows any signs of growing up, and indeed seems to find the idea of growing up confusing and alien on a conceptual level. In the Princess's mind, a child is not a stage of development, but just a kind of person you can be, no different from being red-haired or left-handed.
The Princess seems to take deep pride in her immaturity, which she views as a positive trait. When she's told she's acting "childish" or "juvenile", she takes it as a compliment, blissfully unaware that it was intended as the opposite.
Although the Princess typically has the appearance and demeanor of a 13-year-old, she sometimes acts and appears even younger. It seems that her apparent age shifts with her ever-changing mood. While some believe this age-sliding is a willful act on the part of the Princess, the broad consensus is that it is innate to her nature as the Everchild.
Personality
The Princess is almost always desperate for attention, going to great lengths to impress her subjects an gain their admiration. While, for example, most of her schoolmates travel to and from the school campus by train, the Princess insists on traveling with a full royal motorcade, parading through the streets of Havensborough in her pink convertible, escorted by a squad of police officers and royal guards. (This particular attempt at ostentatiousness tends to backfire: because the other children, having arrived by rail, are congregating at the train station, the only people present to watch the motorcade arrive at the school gates are a handful of unimpressed grown-ups.)
Powers
The Princess, being a construct of pure magic, has demonstrated a broad array of powers, seemingly having the ability to manipulate reality itself through the sheer force of will. She frequently claims to literally be omnipotent, though the veracity of this claim is questionable, as she often ends up in situations where she's clearly displeased not to get her way, which seems unlikely for a truly omnipotent being. (If confronted about this seeming contradiction, she will often insist that she simply doesn't like to interfere with other sentient beings' free will.)
Divinity
Princess Alice frequently claims to be a deity, though by her own admission, she does not know of anyone who actually worships her as a goddess.

Miscellaneous hijinks
On one occassion, after the Headmistress of DameAdorabellesAcademy forbid her to host a party on school grounds, Princess Alice directed the CentraliaHonorGuard to block off a portion of street in front of the school to use as a venue for the party. Havensborough law enforcement initially disapproved of the traffic disruption, but came around once Alice invited the Chief of Police to sing "Let It Go" on her karaoke machine.
Princess Alice's main mode of transportation is Livery, a transforming robot who assumes the form of a pink Cadillac convertible. Although Princess Alice is too young to obtain a driver's license, Livery "taught" her how to drive, though in reality he's doing all the work and letting her just pretend to be in control. (This has resulted in much confusion for the Princess when she attempts to drive a different car and finds herself unable to operate it.) Despite the objections of the boring grown-ups, Princess Alice insists her sovereignty means she doesn't strictly need a driver's license. After all, all Centralian driver's licenses are issued in her name. What's she gonna do, issue one to herself?
Although Princess Alice often drives by herself, if she's feeling especially ostentatious, she might travel with a full motorcade, including escorts from the CentraliaHonorGuard, barreling down the road with lights and sirens. She often travels with the motorcade when she wants to impress her schoolmates at DameAdorabellesAcademy, or to make a grand first impression for foreign dignitaries.
Princess Alice once attempted to scam the Tooth Fairy by repeatedly assuming the form of a 6-year-old so she could lose the same baby teeth multiple times. The Tooth Fairy, who apparently keeps detailed records of every child's teeth, caught onto the Princess's ruse and blacklisted her from further transactions.
Princess Alice occasionally wears her military uniform, especially when she wants to "remind" adult authority figures that she "outranks" them. She once got detention for wearing her military uniform to class instead of her approved school uniform. The Princess's military uniform is adorned with what appear to be various medals and decorations, but, when pressed on the fact that she's never been in combat--and, in fact, Centralia has never been at war--she admitted she made them all up to look cool. (The only "real" one commemorates the time she stepped on TsarinaMalice's foot at a conference and pretended it was accidental, which to date is the only casualty in the cold war between Centralia and Discordantia.)
Princess Alice's role as sovereign of Centralia entitles her to know where the Fairies come from--knowledge held by very few other than the fairies themselves--but she is sworn to absolute secrecy. The Princess often brags to her schoolmates that she knows where the fairies come from, but when they ask her to tell them, she reluctantly responds that she just can't tell anyone. Naturally, the other children dismiss her claim, assuming she's simply making it up for attention.
MOST OF THIS IS GONNA GO
Description
Princess Alice is an alien from the planet Asteria who generally assumes the form of a young but rotund human girl, appearing about 13 years old. Princess Alice's true age is not known, even to herself--"You kind of lose track after a few centuries on Earth"--but it is clear that she is a child even by the standards of Asterians. She often refers to herself as a goddess or deity, though the extent to which this is true largely depends on one's interpretation of what divinity entails.
As a construct of pure magic, Princess Alice technically does not need to sleep, but she was introduced to the concept of sleep by her Earth friends, and subsequently became addicted. She can now be found dozing off much of the time when nothing exciting is happening near her.
Magical powers
It was Princess Alice's immense magical ability that led PrincessJeanette to appoint her as the third ruler of Centralia. Alice is currently the most powerful magic user known in Centralia, though by her own admission, she has not yet learned to fully control her abilities. Those who are close to the Princess, especially TheHandler, go to great lengths to keep her occupied at all times so she does not inadvertently cause destruction with her yet-unrestrained powers. The CentraliaHonorGuard, led by PrincessNicki, also has several protocols in place to help keep the princess and her "crazy powerful magic" under control.
Princess Alice most famously uses her powers to manipulate her apparent physical age, usually assuming the form of an even younger child to "unwind". She has also been known to assume the form of an adult, usually in an attempt to inconspicuously enter spaces where children are not allowed, though this typically backfires, as she struggles not to draw attention to herself even at the best of times.
