==Personality==
Alexis' manga counterpart is the same as similar to her anime counterpart in terms of ranking, strength, looks and motivation. She is the object of Bastion Misawa's affections. She is made awkward by her brother, [[Atticus Rhodes (manga)|Atticus]]' lighthearted attitude, usually reacting with a facepalm and sighs heavily each time other characters are referring to his weird habits or characteristics. She is particularly embarrassed by people calling Atticus by his self-given nickname "Rhodie" ("Fubu-king" in the Japanese version).
==Biography==
Alexis spotted [[Jaden Yuki (manga)|Jaden Yuki]] by himself. She said it was unusual to see him alone and asked where [[Syrus Truesdale (manga)|Syrus Truesdale]] was. Jaden replied that Syrus was Dueling a trainee teacher, whom Alexis understood to be [[Mr. Ryuga]]. She told Jaden of his 45-game winning streak and the rumor that he was taking cards from the students he defeated. This enraged Jaden who became Ryuga's fiftieth opponent. Alexis watched the Duel and wondered if something was wrong when Jaden had trouble activating a [[Spell Card]].<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|1|ref}}</ref>
Alexis had a lot of Duel reference material that she would sometimes lend to Jaden. One time he had her card catalog, which she needed immediately but could not find him, so they exchanged phone numbers to make things easier.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|4|ref}}</ref>
Following Jaden's defeat of [[Chazz Princeton (manga)|Chazz Princeton]], Alexis went to the video room, where she was not surprised to find [[Bastion Misawa (manga)|Bastion Misawa]] studying the Duel. She asked if he was as shocked as everyone else that Jaden won and asked how he analyzed Jaden. The aspect of Jaden's strategy that Bastion had the most difficulty with was Jaden's ability to draw the right card at the right time and surmised that Jaden may even be a genius. Alexis jokingly remarked "A careful analysis by Bastion Misawa the philosopher is concludes that... Jaden is a genius".<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|4|ref}}</ref>
As Alexis parted ways with Bastion, she received a phone call from Jaden, who was looking to borrow the [[Battle City (manga)|Battle City]] DVD. Bastion, who had a crush on Alexis and did not have her number, roared in frustration when she left the room. She text texted Jaden back later to inform him that she had lent the DVD to someone else. <ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|4|ref}}</ref> Alexis managed to get a hold of the DVD and brought it to the [[Slifer Red]] dormitory, but could not find Jaden and his phone was switched off. She phoned Syrus, who said Jaden was Dueling Bastion in the grove behind the Slifer Red dormitory.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|5|ref}}</ref>
Alexis went to watch the end of Jaden and Bastion's Duel, unaware that if Jaden won, Bastion would lend him the [[Duelist Kingdom (manga)|Duelist Kingdom]] DVD and if Bastion won, Jaden would give him Alexis phone number. She was puzzled by Syrus' vagueness when she asked him about the circumstances of the Duel and Syrus told her she was quite the enchantress. After Jaden won the Duel and demanded Bastion's DVD, Alexis assumed they were Dueling over the Battle City DVD and handed it to him. Jaden told her that Bastion had the Duelist Kingdom DVD and suggested that they exchange phone numbers, so that she could borrow it. After doing so, Bastion invited Alexis to come to his dormitory to get the DVD. When Jaden insisted he should be first to see the DVD, Bastion said "ladies first" and Syrus reiterated that Alexis was an enchantress.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|5|ref}}</ref>
Despite her disinterest in the contest, Alexis was a nominee for [[Miss Duel Academy]] and became one of the five finalists. She did not join the other finalists on stage, until it was announced that she tied first with [[Seika Kohinata]] on 198 votes. At that point, she was dragged on stage and tripped by Seika as she was brought to the host. The host asked how she felt, but as she tried to voice her disinterest, she was interrupted as someone pointed out there was one student who had not voted, Jaden Yuki. Seika realized that he was a friend of Alexis and accused them of fixing the contest, but Alexis claimed that the contest meant noting to her. As Jaden was pressured to make the deciding decision, Alexis began to walk away, saying she would leave it up to them. However when it was proposed that Jaden Duel Seika to determine who got the deciding vote, Alexis refused to allow someone to act on her behalf. Seika did not think she could win against Alexis or Jaden, so she suggested that Alexis and Jaden Duel. Alexis accepted, under the condition that if she won, she could have her entry canceled and if Jaden won, he would vote for Seika, either outcome resulting in Seika's victory. <ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|6|ref}}</ref> Although Alexis lost, she was considered to have put up a good battle and Seika deemed Alexis to be more deserving of the title. Alexis said the she wanted to be recognized as a Duelist, not just a girl. Jaden pointed out that the audience, who were cheering for her, recognized her as a Duelist and like anything at the academy, the decision should sway in favor of the stronger Duelist.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|7|ref}}</ref>
While Alexis, Bastion, Jaden, Syrus and Alexis were discussing [[Atticus Rhodes (manga)|Atticus Rhodes]] and [[Zane Truesdale (manga)|Zane Truesdale]] studying abroad, Jaden pointed out that Atticus had not entered a match, Alexis was not surprised and said her brother was a creature of whim. When Jaden asked why Syrus calls him "bro", when he has a real brother, Alexis and Bastion both expressed interest in hearing the answer too, but were interrupted by [[Vellian Crowler (manga)|Vellian Crowler]], who had mistakenly believed Syrus scored 0 in a test. He threatened to expel Syrus, unless he could defeat Jaden in a Duel. Alexis and Bastion figured Jaden could just let Syrus win, but Crowler said that due to his poor exam results, Jaden would have his Deck confiscated if he lost. When Syrus lost and [[Midori Hibiki]] pointed out that he had not actually scored a 0, Alexis danced with Jaden, Syrus and Bastion in celebration.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|8|ref}}</ref><ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|9|ref}}</ref>
Alexis participates received word that Atticus would be extending his time studying abroad, having appealed directly to the principal and would not be returning home with Zane. She suspected that it was because some girl in America had caught his attention.<ref>{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|16|ref}}</ref> Alexis decided to take part in the [[Zane Truesdale homecoming tournament]] and decided that in the interest of advancing in the tournament hosted at Duel Academy, it would not be wise to face Jaden or Bastion in the preliminaries.

GX|16|ref}}</ref> In the preliminaries, Alexis fought [[Reggie MacKenzie]] in the preliminaries and loseslost.
