Alicia Neff

Alicia Neff is the wife of Victor Neff and the soon-to-be mother of the couple's unborn child. She lives with Victor in their new apartment at 12 DuPont Crest, having recently moved to allow her to study. She is far more calm and level-headed than her husband, often talking him down from anger or emotional outbursts, though she admits to having hormonal mood swings due to pregnancy.

In the Waking World
She appears mostly in the first chapter of the game, though has small appearances in many others and is still a major character throughout the story. She initially appears in the kitchen making breakfast for Victor while he sleeps. If Victor attempts to leave the apartment before Mr. Morton delivers their key, she will ask him to stay as she doesn't feel comfortable around him. After some prompting, she explains having a strange dream involving him, later revealed as Mr. Morton's intrusion in her mind via the Dream Machine. After the hidden camera is found in the Neff bedroom she feels more justified in her distrust and calls the police. She remains on hold to the police until the end of Chapter 2, where she is forced into a dreaming state by the Machine.

In the Dreamscape
Inside the Dreamscape, Alicia is Captain Neff of the SS Albatross, a flying cruise ship manned by a crew of identical copies of Victor. Among the crew she has a reputation as a strict but fair Captain, with every member of the crew sharing stories of her alleged activities in the war. She appears only at the end of the Chapter, first possessed by the Machine but later as herself, able to communicate lucidly with Victor. In the real world she remains asleep, only waking at the very end of Chapter 6.
