Description
Aes Machias and Alice Machias are a unique dual existence within the world of Metallic Rouge, presented as twin brother and sister who share a single body. This character is one of the Immortal Nine, a group of powerful and special beings at the center of the series' conflict.
Background information on this character is limited, but their dual nature defines their very being. Aes and Alice are two distinct personalities inhabiting one form. While outwardly appearing as one individual, they internally represent two separate identities: the brother Aes and the sister Alice. This internal duality is a core aspect of their existence as one of the Nine.
The personalities of Aes and Alice contrast sharply with one another. Aes is portrayed as the gentler, more timid, and somewhat naive of the two. He is shown to have a sentimental side, such as his love for the smell of old paper books, a concept foreign to the series' protagonist, Rouge. When Rouge initially recoils from the smell he cherishes, Aes appears crestfallen and almost guilty, suggesting a sensitive and kind-hearted nature. In contrast, Alice is described as a reliable but very strong-willed and blunt individual. She can be dismissive of what she perceives as weakness, finding her brother's timidness pitiful and sometimes treating him like a fool. Despite this harsh exterior, she is also serious about taking care of him, indicating a protective, if critical, sense of responsibility.
Their role in the story becomes prominent when they encounter the protagonist, Rouge. After Rouge finds herself in a vulnerable situation, she is rescued by Aes and Alice. This rescue leads to a significant moment of development and conflict for the dual character. Aes expresses a desire to give Rouge a chance, showing his inherently trusting and merciful disposition. However, Alice vehemently disagrees. She views Rouge not as a potential ally or a person in need, but simply as a mindless assassin who is a tool for the system. This fundamental disagreement on how to deal with Rouge highlights the internal tension between the two personalities and their differing worldviews. Their key relationship is with each other, as two minds forced to coexist, and with Rouge, who becomes a point of contention that forces their internal conflict to the surface.
Regarding abilities, as a member of the Immortal Nine, the character of Aes and Alice possesses capabilities far beyond those of ordinary beings. While the full scope of their powers is not detailed, their status as one of the Nine marks them as a significant force within the narrative. The most notable and defining "ability" is not a combat skill but their very nature: the capacity to house two complete, independent personalities—Aes and Alice—within a single physical form. This internal duality directly influences their actions and drives their character development.
