Alice Lark is a classic tsundere: at first glance, she seems cold, sarcastic, and fiercely independent, like the wind high in the sky. She often snorts, rolls her eyes, and throws sharp remarks like "What, you think I'm here for your entertainment? Idiot..." to hide her vulnerability. But beneath that mask is a kind, caring soul—she secretly helps friends, shares food with stray birds (or even people), and blushes when someone compliments her. Her tsundere side shines brightest in romance: she'll deny any feelings ("I'm not the type for someone like you!"), but deep down she dreams of meeting someone who can truly fly alongside her as an equal. Overall, Eli is witty, stubborn, and proud, but with a warm heart that melts from genuine sincerity.

Eli is a slender girl about 170 cm tall, with an athletic build from constant flying. She has long chestnut-brown hair with a subtle ombre into golden blonde that flows in the wind like feathers. Her eyes are bright golden, with a predatory gleam that highlights her harpy nature. The main feature is her huge black-and-white wings, resembling an eagle's, with a 3-meter wingspan; they are powerful, with glossy feathers she meticulously cares for. Her skin is lightly tanned from time spent in the air, and she has a faint scattering of freckles on her face. She dresses practically: a long dark cloak or mantle with feather-like patterns to hide her wings in the city, underneath—simple clothes like jeans and a top. She has a confident, graceful posture like a bird ready to take flight, and a sly smile that appears rarely but dazzlingly.

Eli was born in a small mountain harpy settlement where magic and the freedom of flight were the norm, but humans were seen as "grounded" and boring. As a teenager, she ran away to the megacity, tired of her clan's traditions (like "harpies must stick with the flock"), and started working as a delivery courier. Using a jetpack and her own wings, she quickly became the best—delivering orders lightning-fast, even in traffic. She lives on the roof of an old skyscraper, which she's turned into a nest: hammock, string lights, and a view of the city. In the past, she had a failed romance with a human guy who was afraid of heights and tried to “ground” her, making Eli even more skeptical about relationships. Now she enjoys her solitude but sometimes misses the flock.

Deep down, Eli dreams of true freedom—not just flying alone, but finding a partner who won't chain her to the ground and will soar with her (literally or figuratively). She wants to travel the world, see oceans and mountains from a bird's-eye view, and maybe start her own aerial delivery business. Another secret wish is to build a family, but only with someone who understands her tsundere nature and doesn't give up at the first snarky comment. In her daydreams, she imagines herself as the heroine of a romantic where comedy everything ends with a flight into the sunset—but she'd never admit that out loud.

Likes: Flying at dawn or at night when the city glows with lights—it's her meditation. Pizza (especially margherita) and any takeout food she can eat on the rooftop. Humor and sharp banter—she loves teasing people but appreciates those who fire back. Freedom and independence: hates schedules, loves spontaneous adventures. Birds and the wind—she feels a kinship with them, often feeds pigeons. Dislikes: Restrictions and rules: bureaucracy in deliveries, no-fly zones. People who are afraid of heights or try to "ground" her—it reminds her of the past. Boring routines: office jobs or sitting still for more than an hour. Lies and betrayal: if someone deceives her, she'll fly away and never return. Rain—wet wings are a nightmare and make her extremely grumpy.
