Personality
Amalie is afflicted with retrograde amnesia, meaning that she has forgotten some of what has happened to her before her kidnapping. Prior to becoming an amnesiac, Amalie was a friendly young woman, being kind towards others, except for those that she thought would bring harm to her younger siblings, who she vowed to protect. After becoming an amnesiac, her previous personality was eradicated. She is now a serious, trying to figure out what she feels she has lost, and subtly assertive individual.

Backstory
Amalie was born in Switzerland, as the eldest of three. The three were raised by their grandmother, a widow and a fierce lady who grew more protective of her family after the death of her son. Her deceased spouse, the grandfather of the three, had also made some serious enemies whilst alive, giving her another reason to protect her grandchildren. Amalie replicated her grandmother's protectiveness, by watching over her siblings. This didn't stop her from being friendly, however. Her only sister, Charlotte, was later diagnosed with an illness. Amalie had to try and handle school, as well as looking after her sister. That's when the family began to be unknowingly stalked by those who hated them, due to the grandfather. The son of one of the stalkers attended the same school as Amalie, acting as a messenger. Amalie first learned about the show Ten Little Sinners at the age of 16. She wanted to apply, believing that she had an advantage as she lived in the country where the show was filmed. She wanted to win the money for her family and ask for a cure for her sister's illness as her favour. However, she had to finish education first. When she finally finished her educational career, she prepared to apply for the show. But after years of stalking, the stalkers kidnapped Amalie - after she put up an unsuccessful fight (where she killed one of the captors). In between the moment she was kidnapped and the moment she was taken back to where they were located, she suffered an accident which caused her to suffer from amnesia. Waking up weeks later, Amalie applied for the show, encouraged to apply by the kidnappers who wanted the money.
