Well, we've talked about our main character. Now, let's get to her (eventual) best friend; Alyssa Smith.
Alyssa is sixteen by the time the series starts, and she has actually been attending the same school as Ilyssa, but has gone unnoticed towards the blonde girl until now. Alyssa's home-life is not exactly typical; her mother died when she was very little, and while her father works to support his family, he's kind of lazy. As a result, Alyssa had to become the woman of the house; cooking and cleaning while attending to her little sisters needs. Despite being mature and responsible when it comes to her family, Alyssa is very much the anti-Ilyssa when it comes to school grades. That's not to say that she's dumb, as she is actually quite intelligent. The problem is that she doesn't really apply herself the same way Ilyssa does, and is therefore pretty much a C student. In continuing with the anti-Ilyssa theme, she is actually fairly good at Ilyssa weakest subjects; gym and home economics.
Being a natural Cherish Goddess, Alyssa has come to Earth in search of her world's greatest treasure; the Cherish Wish Chariot. She sees this as the perfect opprutuinity to become the town's Champion Goddess, she goes to earth with her sister and advisor Lady Doggykins. Due to her costume design, she adopts the codename Cherish Devil. As Cherish Devil, Alyssa has access to lava magic. Already a skilled athlete, her enhanced strength in Goddess mode enables her to use those skills to their full potential. Sadly, she has a rather nasty side-effect ability. If she is made angry in Goddess mode, her hair will catch fire. Sometimes, this may cause a dramatic effect. Though most times, it becomes a nuissance for her. For her weapon, Alyssa has been given a pair of hoolahoops, which she can use to concentrate her lava magic into much more direct attacks. In addition, her weapons have some unique abilities; their size is adjustable, and they can even be turned into long staffs when needed.
As far as relationships go, Alyssa was probably closest to her mom than anyone else when she was alive. She admired her mom dearly, and wished to be like her. When her mother died, Alyssa decided that it was her responsibility to become the town's Champion Goddess. After all, it was her mother's territory. This is why she is so frustrated with Ilyssa to begin with; not only is she mortal, but she is stepping on Alyssa's unofficial territory. As a result, she does all she can to try and trip her up during training. Eventually though, she overcomes this once she starts to see Ilyssa's softer side, and can't help but find herself starting to like the initally stand-offish blonde girl. Alyssa is also very close to her darling little sister Julia, who is roughly six years younger than she is. Alyssa mostly lets her do what she wants, being confident in her sisters choices and behaviour. But whenever she sees Julia trying to act or behave in a manner not suitbale for her age, she immediately turns into a standard nagging mom.
As far as personality goes, Alyssa is somewhere between being a girl and a woman. As stated before, she is fairly mature when it comes to her family and responsibilities. However, she has a tendency to be selfish, only wanting to further her goals at other people's expenses (such as Ilyssas intial threat to her). As a result, this makes her both arrogant, and overly egotistical and competitive. She is not overly impulsive however. Being a more experienced fighter, she can be very observant. Thus, only becoming implusive in panicky positions, or if someone eggs her on a bit too much. Alyssa does have her soft side though, being a very relaxed and laid back sister figure when not engaged in sports. Unlike Ilyssa, she is in touch with what's most important in life regarding yourself and relationships, even if she has her own issues she needs to work out. As a result, god forbid if you ever hurt her loved ones. Doing so will unleash a nasty short-fuse the likes of which one will tend to regret much later. In addition to sports, the only other hobby she takes any pride in is cooking. Of all the dishes she has made and created herself, her favorite HAS to be Beef Salad, the very first dish she ever created herself.
Well, that's Alyssa. Next time, we'll be talking about her little sister; Julia, A.K.A. Cherish Shpynix (and before you say anything, yes, I'm pretty sure that's spelt incorrectly).
