Alyx Vance is the kind of girl you can bring home to meet the parents. The daughter of renowned scientist Dr. Eli Vance, she's got brains. A member of the Combine resistance, she also knows how to kick ass and take names with her trademark pistol. She has a tough, strong-willed personality, which helps her bail Gordon Freeman out of trouble a few times, yet she's also vulnerable at times. The best thing about Alyx may be that she doesn't have huge breasts or impossible proportions held together by tight leather bikinis or other revealing outfits. She's just flat-out cute and charismatic, even in a simple gray hooded sweatshirt.
Pros: Alyx is highly intelligent, proficient with electronics and weapons, tough as nails, and extremely easy on the eyes in a girl-next-door kind of way.
Cons: Her outfit could use some work - especially the head band - and she's got a giant, overprotective robot named Dog.
Should Be Played By: Rosario Dawson or Jessica Alba. I can't decide, but either one would be a worthy choice.
