Appearance and Personality
Alice has pink hair, a jacket that covers up her arms and neck(similar to Letz Shake's)a bikini top and pink shorts. Alice is very much like Holly Summers from the first game, she is down to earth, honorable, and had no fear of death. She respects Travis Touchdown and is disappointed that she didn't encounter Travis after she achieved first rank. She has a dislike of the UAA's system an the way assassins are treated, her outlooks are similar to Travis's and she inspires him. She also wants to know how Travis was able to walk away from the top.
Story
As mentioned by Slyvia, Alice is obsessed with battling and spends her entire waking hour training to better herself.When Travis first encounters her she is burning some pictures and a presumably a photo album. She talks to Travis about how she feels about the UAA, and the ways assassins are being used as tools. She tells him many assassins, herself included, admire him as the "crownless king": the assassin who reached the top and then walked away, leaving the organization entirely. Upon defeating her Travis asks for her name, she tells to never forget an assassin named Alice. Before Travis kills her he agrees with her last request and she smiles. She is killed by Travis, falling forward on him as he vertically bisects her, coating Travis in her blood. Her death affects Travis greatly; when confronted by Sylvia after the fight,he yells at her about how assassins are people not just tools. He is so angry that he burns Sylvia with his katana. He then reveals his desire to be a hero by his own standards, to treat all assassins like humans, and to bring down the UAA.
Power and Abilities
Her weapon is a back-mounted machine with six arm-like appendages in a hexagonal pattern; all six store a beam katana, and the lowest appendage can lift her off of the ground and is also used as a scorpion tail. She can also throw many katanas at Travis using this device. It appears she controls the appendages with the movments of her arms.

Quotes
"I was hoping we'd fight after I became number 1."
"I've seen a lot in my journey up the ranks. An endless cycle of violence, now broadcast as a spectator sport..."
"Why, Travis? Why do so many assasian join, If we're all going to end up killing each other in the end?"
"Once we join the ranks, we can never get out."
"You are the crownless king, the one who got out."
"With you it's different! You're the No More Hero!"
"Free us all in a crimson sea!"
"Promise me you won't forget...There was once an assasian named Alice."
Alice's Past
Alice Twilight's past is mostly unknown, but when she is seen burning pictures before her battle several of the pictures can be seen. From the pictures we can see that she had a family, she was married and had a child. It is unknown of their where abouts now, but they could possibly be dead. It is also shown that Alice knew Margaret Moonlight. It could be assumed that they are sisters, but the accent difference is to be question however if Alice was Margaret's mother and was raised in America which would explain Margaret having an American accent and Alice having a possibly Polish or French accent.
Trivia
- The UAA leaderboard misinforms Alice's surname to be "Moonlight," when in fact this is the surname of Margaret. It is, however, possible that it actually is vice versa, or perhaps Suda is intentionally skewing the information.
- In the cutscene before the fight, Alice can be seen burning a small pile of photos that she was holding. The photos reveal that Alice and Margaret once knew each other and might have even been related, which might explain why Alice's surname was described as "Moonlight".
- Alice was the first brand new assassin to been revealed for Desperate Struggle.
- Alice's Jet-pack weapon resembles General Grievous from Star Wars, who could wield four lightsabers at once.
- Alice is similiar to Holly Summers in many ways. Both of them do not fear death, and are the only assassins to question Travis about life. Both of them speak in a cool and calm manner as well. Also,even though both of them are obviously in different ranks, they put up a good fight during battle. Both of their deaths the only one to greatly sadden and upset Travis. Espcially Alice's death, Travis was so upset that he did not notice that his blades has accidentally burned Sylvia's left hand.
- Alice is the first and only person in entire No More Heroes history to stain Travis with her blood. As evident when Travis diagonally slices her in half and has his face stained by her blood.
