History
A troubled young girl, Ali grew up in New York City with her parents. At an unspecified time, her mother passed away, leaving her father to raise Ali as a single parent. Over time, Ali grew more and more rebellious, believing her father didn't truly love her. She spent most of her days roller skating around the city, occasionally committing acts of theft.

One day, Ali stumbled across the Opal Gem after a mishap with a criminal named Mel. Unbeknownst to Ali, the Dark Twins were searching for the gem, and tracked down the young girl. Jason manipulated Ali into believing she could join their family, so Ali led the twins to where she had hid the gem. Jana immediately snatched the gem and turned on Ali. Tenko and the Guardians of the Magic later came to Ali's rescue, telling Ali that her father does love her and believe that she's a good person. Ali ultimately gave the gem to Tenko, allowing her to defeat the twins.

Afterwards, Ali's father revealed that he and Tenko agreed to let Ali join the Guardians to learn and train to be a better person. Ali embraced her father, reconciling their differences.

After hearing about a hunter discovering the Diamond Gem, the Guardians traveled to Africa in search of it. Ali accompanied the group, and when they learned that the hunter, Travis Cage, had captured Ninjara, Ali joined Princess Tenko, Steel and Shonti in search of them. However, when they found Jana and Jason, Jason used his Mesmer-Disk to mesmerize Ali and the others, leaving Princess Tenko alone to defeat the villains.

When Pearl Rider, Tenko's horse, was poisoned by Jana, Ali stayed behind with Shonti, Steel, and Bolt to watch over the dying creature and protect the Tenko Box. Tenko and Hawk later returned with Hawk's grandfather Knowingwolf, who cured Pearl Rider's sickness.

Over time, Ali believed she should become a Guardian herself, though Princess Tenko did not believe she was ready. After hearing of the Cat's Eye Gem in Egypt, Ali and the Guardians once again headed off to find the stone. However, while exploring the depths of King Hepsut's tomb, Ali triggered a trap which sent them through the floor. Soon, they were being surrounded by sand that was falling from above. Ali panicked, believing they would be buried alive, but Tenko told her to remember her training.

Ali overcame her fear and helped find the Cat's Eye Gem, but Jana and Jason had reached the gem first. The two groups fought, but as the Dark Twins realized they were losing, Jason grabbed Ali and fled. The twins ran up the top of the pyramid, but Steel shot Jana with a metal ring that encircled her. Jason threatened to throw Ali off of the pyramid unless Tenko gave them the gem. Tenko, not wishing any harm to come to Ali, reluctantly agreed and gave the twins the gem. Jana shoved Ali anyway, though Tenko managed to grab her hand and save her from certain doom. Ali, shaken, blamed herself for the loss of the Cat's Eye Gem.

Powers and abilities
Ali is in possession of the Morganite Gem, given to her late in the series by Princess Tenko. However, the series ended before Ali was able to use her powers, leaving her abilities ultimately a mystery. The Mattel doll suggests her gem has granted her defensive powers, such as her wrist shields. Equipped with roller skates, it is also implied she may have gained super-speed.
