Alenrice Lucifen d'Autriche, referred to as The Daughter of Evil, is a princess of the Kingdom of Lucifenia and the twin sister of Prince Rintoine. Selfish and whimsical, she was well known for her short, tyrannical reign. She fell under possession of the Demon of Pride

Early Life
Alenrice was born in EC 485 along with her twin brother, Rintoine as heirs to the Lucifenian Royal Family. When they were children, she fled from the palace with her brother through a secret passage in the fireplace in their room and passed through the Forest of Bewilderment before arriving at a beach shore in EC 491. While there, Alenrice had tripped and cut herself, crying, and her brother treated her wound. The six-year olds dug up a small black box on the beach. Inside the box was a small mirror that released a demon that chased the twins. Rintoine wanted to go home because it was getting dark, but Alenrice told him to not be afraid and just hold her hand. Afterward, she heard from her brother about a how if she wrote down her wish, put in a bottle, and threw it in the sea, it would come true. Alenrice told her brother she wished that in her next life, she could be a horse because the palace was boring and she wanted to freely play outside with him anywhere they wanted.

Alenrice refused to share her snack with the lurking demon when it came out during snack time at three o'clock; thus she was possessed by it. As a result, she often went to the kitchen to eat until Elluki Clockworker managed to cast out the "demon" and banish it back into the mirror. This also exorcised most of Alenrice's memories of her brother Rintoine. Because her mother, Queen Alaina had died due to the Goula disease plaguing Beelzenia, a power struggle ensued and Alenrice was separated from Rintoine. The prince was later pronounced dead, making Alenrice the sole successor to the throne. Sometime after, Alenrice became acquainted with Michael Elphe and the two became very close. Their parents determined that on Alenrice's fifteenth birthday, she would marry Michael. At some point, Mcihael gave her a shell necklace as part of their courtship. At the age of thirteen, after the death of King Andre, the young princess assumed the throne.

Reign of Evil
As the new ruler, she imposed heavy taxes on all the townsfolk and purged anyone who opposed her. On her fourteenth birthday, Alenrice fled the palace via the secret passage in her room's fireplace due to a quarrel she had with Captain Marius the day before. She escaped on her horse, Josephine, and fled through the Forest of Bewilderment to an Anonymous Coast north of the palace. Staring at the coast, she was found by her servant, Rinto, and cursed the fact she was found before the ball, hoping to blame Marius for her sudden disappearance and have him executed. Frustrated, she yelled at her servant for finding her and then slapped him for attempting to clean a scratch on her right hand.

Realizing his intent, she allowed him to heal her small wound and considered using the scratch she received as an excuse to execute her Commander of the Royal Guard. After her servant finished, Alenrice noticed that the sun was setting and decided to head back to the palace. Rinto recommended they take the path toward the port since it was faster than the path through the woods, much to the surprise of the princess. Embarrassed, she began running towards the port and forgot Josephine. Rinto reminded her and she returned to mount the horse and continue towards the port. While returning, Rinto noted that she had been staring at the setting sun when he found her. Staring at the sunset again, she commented on how the sun was always alone, like her.

That night, Alenrice attended her birthday celebration, smiling on her throne, while Prime Minister Minisa publically addressed the guests. She was overjoyed when the servants delivered her gargantuan birthday cake that she ordered the chef to make for her earlier that same day.A few days later, Princess Alenrice sentenced a politician to death for angrily speaking out against her during a trial involving her and the ministers in the Hall of Sounds. After the trial ended, Alenrice left but later returned to the Hall, angrily calling for Minisa. When she approached her, she yelled at her for her poor quality food and lack of a knife when she ordered to have five knives while eating. As she yelled at the trembling minister, the servant Asana attacked Alenrice and attempted to assassinate her. Rinto intervened and disarmed Asana before she could kill the terrified princess. Regaining her composure, she ordered the guards to seize her, and had her executed the next day. Since then, she alienated herself from everyone save for four: Rinto, Charles Langley, Lolita Futapie, and Neyro Futapie. Of those, only Rinto was allowed to be with her in her room.

Three days after the assassination attempt, Alenrice stormed into the kitchen with more anger than usual and demanded for Lolita. When her son, Neyro, responded that his mother was absent, the seething Alenrice turned her attention to the servant and asked him if he knew about the rumors the princess heard circulating among the chefs about the ingredients arriving being "unnatural"; soon after, she queried if the servants were stealing food from the palace. Neyro was lost for words and Alenrice demanded to know if Neyro knew anything about the food that was being stolen from the palace. A chef joined the conversation and claimed to have seen someone stealing food from the palace barns that was too tall to be a servant. Neyro finally admitted she knew who it was. Her anger growing, the princess threatened to have Neyro's head cut off if he didn't tell her, and Ney confessed the culprit was Marius.

After dinner, Alenrice ordered Rinto to her room to congratulate him for protecting her from Asana days earlier, and asked if he knew how to fence. When Rinto confessed his father taught him, she bragged about her own fencing capabilities, but still commended Rinto's skills. Desiring the use of his swordplay, she wrote her order on a piece of parchment and placed it in a bottle before giving it to Rinto, ordering Marius' death. Alenrice told Rinto how she wanted him to do this, because the other palace guards wouldn't dare do it. Her servant asked why she used such an odd method to tell him and she claimed someone told her about it long ago, although she couldn't remember who. When Rinto asked why she wanted Leonhart killed, she said it was because she hated him, but also mentioned it was because of several vile rumors Ney told her, including that he planned to overthrow the country.

Believing Neyro wouldn't lie, she told Rinto about her scheme to silently kill Marius without the public's knowledge. The next night, Alenrice invited Marius to join her in her room. Joking, they talked about Queen Alaina's crushes before Alenrice commended Marius for stealing from the palace to feed the people and agreed with his cause, offering to allow him to freely transport food from the palace to the hungry masses if he received her permission. Offering the overjoyed Marius a drink, Alenrice explained that it was Blood Grave, the favorite wine of Kronos Conchita. They continued celebrating until late at night, where Alenrice's plan of drugging Marius before Rinto assassinated him succeeded in killing the Commander of the Royal Guard. Afterward, Alenrice had his body disposed of in the nearby river.

Sometime later, a conference was held in the Halls of Sounds regarding the political discussions in Elphegort and the Sfarz Firm. Rinto reported first to the princess about his meeting with Keela Sfarz. Disinterested, Alenrice asked Rinto what her snack for the day would be once he finished. Afterward, Minisa gave his report. Alenrice was stunned when she saw the Elphe family's gift octopus for her court mage, Elluki, and gladly let her have the gift. Alenrice asked if King Michael spoke about their wedding and Minisa gave her Michael's letter. Reading it, she became outraged that Michael cancelled the marriage and had chosen a "blue-haired girl]]" instead. The ruler screamed for Lolita, and the member of the Three Heroes arrived and was ordered to uncover the identity of the woman Michael loved. Later on, she cried, broken-hearted.

Lolita reported to the princess her scant findings while she was in her room along with Rinto and Elluki. Infuriated, she smashed the jewelry box with Michael's gifts to her on the floor and had a tantrum. Minisa entered her room, hearing the noise, and Alenrice calmed down. The princess ordered her minister to slaughter all the blue-haired women in Marlon. When the minister tried to reason with her that the forests between the two countries made it impossible to invade, Alenrice ordered them to be burned. When Elluki spoke out against Alenrice's rash behavior, she ordered the mage to be executed. Elluki immediately resigned and left; the seething Alenrice ordered Rinto to kill him.

Blue War
During the Blue Hunting, Alenrice and Neyro spoke in the Servant's Room and learned that Rinto had been keeping Kyla's location secret from her. When Neyro left, Kyla walked in and the princess venomously questioned him about his apparent betrayal. Claiming she couldn't hate Rinto, she wrote down an order on a piece of parchment and placed it in a bottle: Kill Kyla. After Kyla was confirmed dead, Alenrice, Neyro, and Charles hung out together in the palace's Heavenly Yard. The three teenagers talked until Alenrice heard the Levin Church bells signal it was three o'clock, saying it was snack time while Rinto brought her brioche to eat.

After the attempted assassination on Minister Minisa, Alenrice and the other ministers convened in the Hall of Sounds to discuss the war in Marlon and the shortage of soldiers due to the prolonged conflict. Alenrice mentioned using Gumillio Venom's mercenaries, which the conference eventually agreed upon. With the Asmodean Company hired, Gumillia respectfully thanked the princess in the Hall of Mirrors. She noted how his "beautiful" face made her mistake him for a woman and Gumillio insisted she didn't judge him by his appearance. After ordering Rinto to show Gumillio the palace, she left. Sometime after that, Rinto had served her cake at three as she watched the sunset in the Heavenly Yard. She noted the sky foretold an apocalypse.

Lucifenian Revolution
When the Lucifenian Revolution broke out, she attended the war meeting, asking if it was over yet before yawning then asking Rinto what the day's snack would be. During the war meeting a week after, Alenrice assured the panicking Minisa that King Michael would not abandon her if they asked for assistance. When Rinto brought her snack, the princess refused since she lost her appetite. A week after that, when the Elphegort and resistance armies merged and Elphegort refused to send troops to defend Lucifenia, Alenrice was shaken and her hands trembled, distraught and afraid by Michael's gesture of apathy. The following week, Alenrice left the Hall of Sounds war meeting after hearing that the revolutionaries were approaching the palace, and many of the ministers were attempting to or had already fled.

As the revolutionaries began to overtake the palace, the unnerved Alenrice ate snacks in her room with Rinto. She finally weakly asked her servant if she would be killed and began breaking down. When she tried to continue eating, she dropped her fork and asked Rinto to hold her hand. When the servant complied, she calmed down and confessed that she just wanted to be strong like her mother, barely holding back her tears. Thanking Rinto for always being with her despite her loneliness, Alenrice was asked by Rinto to swap clothes with her.

After doing so, Rinto told her to escape the palace on Josephine and revealed he was her twin, Rintoine. Shocked, Alenrice begged Rinto not to act as the bait to let her escape but after hugging his sister, the former prince locked the sobbing princess in her room. Failing to open the door, Alenrice begged Rinto to fill the void in her memories and hear more about their past. When he left, she weakly begged for him not leave her alone, banging on the door before escaping on her horse and fleeing the palace.
