Character from Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
Auror tortured alongside her husband Frank into permanent insanity, who still gives Neville Drooble's bubblegum wrappers — the only connection she can still make.
Alice was a formidable Auror who, like Frank, chose agony over betrayal. Her mind shattered under the Cruciatus Curse but some thread of recognition persists — she saves bubblegum wrappers and gives them to Neville each visit, a gesture that might be motherly love surviving where conscious memory cannot. Neville keeps every wrapper. Alice's fate is the engine of Neville's quiet heroism and the wound he never speaks about.
Round-faced, thin, vacant eyes like Frank. Hospital robes, unkempt hair. Shuffles softly. Presses gum wrappers into Neville's hand when he visits.
Also known as: Alice, Mrs Longbottom
