Biography[]
Origins[]
Little is known about Alana's life on Earth prior to the Doctor's arrival. At some point in her early adulthood, she essentially inherited her parents' small hotel after their deaths, becoming the manager.
A Bitter Theft[]
After the TARDIS suddenly and inexplicably landed in the hotel lobby, Alana met the Doctor, and together they fought his first villain, a rogue geneticist and his monstrous, mutated "pets." Afterwards, the Doctor asked Alana to become his first companion, but she refused, intent on helping rebuild the hotel. One sneaky trick with a dropped sonic screwdriver, however, and Alana was trapped inside the TARDIS as it dematerialized, suddenly along for the ride.
The Witch Hunters[]
Alana demanded to be taken back to the hotel, but the Doctor willfully ignored her, setting the controls to 18th-century Venice...or so he thought. The TARDIS landed instead in 18th-century Catville, a small village on the western coast of the U.S.
Personality[]
Alana was an intelligent, practical and confident woman, relatively calm in the face of unusual stress and danger and more than capable of matching the Doctor's snarky repartee.
Appearance & Wardrobe[]
During her adventures with the Doctor, Alana was a relatively young adult female, early- to mid-twenties, of average height, with a somewhat pale complexion, shoulder-length black hair and grey eyes.
She regularly wore a black jacket, a white blouse with a black floral-esque pattern, a pair of black pants, a pair of contemporary-looking, rectangular-framed glasses and a single silver stud in a labret piercing.
