Revision 7

Overview

Alf is a 4-star Ignis character with the Hero attribute in Silver Palace. She is MISS Maid No. 49 and the Detective's assistant. Her title is "A Story Truly Yours."

Profile

Appearance

Alf has salmon-pink hair and teal eyes with light pink pupils. She wears a short black maid skirt with white accents, cat paw belt motifs with shotgun ammunition, and four-leaf clover patterns on her outfit.

Combat

Alf's primary weapon is a lever-action shotgun that converts into a flamethrower via a Reactor mechanism mounted on her back. She is considered a beginner-friendly character with straightforward damage-dealing abilities.

Personality

Alf is clueless yet determined, with almost no common sense and an unshakeably innocent heart. She has poor housekeeping skills and limited situational awareness, but is surprisingly dependable when it counts, especially in combat. Despite being assigned as the Detective's maid, her actual domestic abilities are minimal.

MISS Affiliation

Alf is Maid No. 49 of MISS (Maid Institute, Society, and Services). The high designation number suggests a sizable membership; in-game framing positions MISS as both a personnel pipeline (matching maids to clients) and a quasi-information network with members embedded across Silvernia's districts. Her assignment to the Detective makes her one of the visible faces of MISS's coverage of the city's investigative class. Her partner in the Detective's office is Ashley, recommended through River Constabulary channels for clerical work, while Alf handles combat and field-support roles.

Element And Class

Alf is a 4-star Hero-class character with the Ignis (Fire) element. As a Hero (see Character Classes), her kit is built for damage output with straightforward rotations, which makes her one of the simpler characters in the beta roster to pick up. Her Resonance is a per-character meter rather than a team bonus: Alf fills her own as she attacks, and the effect that fires when it is full is set by her Reactor attribute. Her Ignis damage sits naturally in a team alongside Cinderella, who also carries Ignis, and it presses hardest against Glacies (Ice) enemies for enhanced damage.

Weapon Mechanics

Alf's lever-action shotgun converts to a flamethrower through a Reactor mechanism mounted on her back. The conversion is a visible gameplay state change rather than a cosmetic swap: shotgun mode delivers burst ranged damage, flamethrower mode provides sustained area pressure. The Reactor on her back is the same Silverium technology that powers Silvernia's civilian electrical grid via Spinotrodes, scaled down to a personal combat device (see also Combat System). Her official profile makes the same point through an in-world note pinned to the fridge door, a memo from the Detective reading "NO WEAPONS in the kitchen."

Beta Build Kit

The numbers below come from the second closed beta build. Figures from a beta are the kind of thing most likely to be retuned before release, and none of them have been published officially.

Reserve Ammo is her resource. It caps at 6 and returns at 0.2 a second. The third hit of her basic combo spends one; with none left, that hit becomes a forward charge that hands her three back, so she never fully stalls. A charged attack spends the whole reserve at once and each round spent adds 40% to the bullets' damage. The ultimate levels the flamethrower into a wall of fire and returns 6 Reserve Ammo. Landing melee, shotgun or flamethrower hits gives her a Stun Buildup bonus for 16 seconds, which is what makes her useful ahead of a teammate's execution window.

The first Potential break costs Rectified High-Temp Concentrate x1, Gold Mistletoe x3, Crude Metal-Blooded Claw x3 and 6,250 Ounces.

Story Role And Combat Rotation

Her domestic incompetence does not carry into the field. Her official profile makes the contrast itself, calling her quite clumsy in all manners of mundane household chores and surprisingly dependable during fights. In the beta build she worked as a rotation anchor: high uptime, low complexity, predictable Silverdrip contribution per encounter. Her execution finisher fits standard burst windows after a teammate fully fills the enemy stun gauge.

Acquaintance

Her Acquaintance panel in the second closed beta build carries a short profile and a five-level affinity track. None of it has been published officially.

The panel adds two habits that match her written character. She picks up new words from books and forces them into conversation at the first opportunity, and she learns practical skills fast, whether from talent or from failing at them stubbornly until they stick. It also records that she is friends with a great many cats.

Notable Quote

Her in-game title is "A Story Truly Yours," which fits a character whose official profile opens on the line "A speckless home, a speckless soul" and whose own quote makes protecting her employer the most important job a maid has. The combination of domestic facade and combat reliability follows Silver Palace's broader design pattern of weaponized everyday roles.
