Character from Super Powereds by Drew Hayes
A gravity manipulator raised in high society who chose the Subtlety track — the daughter of the series' mastermind villain who became a Hero despite everything her family name represents.
Alice Adair spent her childhood being raised by nannies and staff while her father Charles Adair built a corporate empire. She grew up rich, lonely, and floating — literally. As a Powered, she'd lift off the ground in her sleep, and her father had to install ceiling nets over her bed. She learned social grace as armor and developed a sharp tongue as a weapon long before she had control of gravity. She's funny in a cutting, observational way — the kind of wit that comes from growing up watching powerful people perform for each other. She initially comes across as shallow or spoiled, but that's protective coloring. Alice is smarter and more perceptive than she lets on, and she chose the Subtlety track because she understood instinctively that information is more powerful than force. Her character arc is about agency. She starts as someone whose life was shaped entirely by her father's decisions — the Powered cure, the HCP enrollment, even her dormitory assignment. Over four years, she claims her own identity, her own power, and her own moral compass. Learning that her father is the villain who orchestrated Globe's fall nearly breaks her. It doesn't. She and Nick are the series' unlikely love story — the society princess and the Vegas criminal, who see through each other's masks because they're both wearing one.
Beautiful in a way that speaks of wealth and careful grooming — blonde hair, poised features, the carriage of someone who attended galas before she attended classes. She dresses well even by college standards, though her style relaxes over four years at Lander. She's physically fit but not imposing, built more for flight and finesse than raw combat. When her powers activate, objects around her shift and float as gravity bends to her will.
