Marianne (メアリアン, Mearian) is a mysterious character of the manga series, Are You Alice? who has some connection to Alice.
Background
Alice Liddell and Lewis Carroll had a good relationship with each other. They were in love with one another, as though they were lovers. However, Lewis had not once even kissed Alice. Lewis was a writer, and Alice enjoyed hearing him tell her his stories.
Alice Liddell's pet cat, Dinah, who later abandoned that name and took the name of Cheshire Cat, picked the brother out of the rubbish bin and saved him. Dinah loved Alice Liddell as she was his mistress, and he's her pet cat. But the brother was hardly human in appearance, having been destroyed by Lewis. Dinah travelled to various different worlds, looking for body parts to rebuild the younger brother.
Slowly, bit by bit, Dinah put the brother back together, specially getting blue eyes and blonde hair just like Alice Liddell's. Dinah named the younger brother, Alice.
Alice loved his elder sister, Alice Liddell, deeply. Dinah and Alice both decided that Alice had to travel into Wonderland to save Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell, who were both trapped inside that world.
The White Rabbit was in love with Alice Liddell, whom he found wandering around Wonderland, which was completely empty at that time. He decided to protect Alice Liddell at all costs, and named her Marianne.
Appearance
Marianne has long, curly blonde hair with a small portion of braided hair in front of her. She wears a black headband with a ribbon as its design. Her outfit is similar to a maid's usual dress where her main dress is coloured blue and her apron is white with a big ribbon tied around her waist. She wears a pair of white stockings and black shoes.
Personality
Marianne, as she appears entirely in Chapter 8, is rather an adorable and caring "sister" to her "brother," Alice, who served him a table of sweets and stuffs when he "falls" down to her place. She can be clumsy in some cases and also sweet. However, once the name of "Alice" is spoken, she tends to have an intense anger and emotion to it.
Her name is something important to her and it is the sole reason for her existence. She is usually seen deliberately asking for her name that is taken away from her, but somehow, when she was "killed" by Alice, she "gives" it away to Alice for him to be happy and satisfied.

Trivia
