Fictional character biography

In the film, Alicia Hunt is the girlfriend of Carl Grissom, the most powerful crime lord in Gotham City. She had previously been a model, and now spends most of her time shopping. Alicia begins having an affair with Jack Napier, Grissom's second in command. When Grissom discovers this, he sends Jack on a mission that he intends for him not to return from. At the Axis Chemicals Plant, Jack falls into a vat of chemicals, but does not die. Instead the chemicals change him, and he transforms into The Joker. Joker returns and murders Carl Grissom, assuming control of The Mob. When Alicia returns home that evening, she faints upon seeing Joker for the first time. Despite the initial shock, Alicia stays and appears to still be in love with The Joker. Even after he scars her face with acid, she still stays with him, although she chooses to wear a white porcelain mask after this. Joker says that the scars make Alicia "a living work of art". Some time later, Joker tells Vicki Vale that "Alicia threw herself out the window", although it is heavily implied, that he actually pushed her after telling Vicki that "You can't make an omlett without breaking some eggs" and then proceeds to smash her mask while laughing.
