Personality
Prince Ali is kind and fun-loving. Due to his royalty, he is expected to act regal and to be safe, which he finds difficult, considering that he greatly enjoys doing new and exciting things. He feels constrained by his schedule and his chaperone's watchful eye, as while he has a good heart and likes helping others, he wants to do things on his own terms, and he understands when risks and detours should be taken. Able to recognize authenticity in people, he doesn't like good actions coming from selfish reasons, but he appreciates real, genuine compassion.
Relationships
Prince Ali's chaperone

Rose Lavillant
Touched by Rose's compliments, Ali asks Rose to accompany him to the children's hospital where he plans to volunteer and thereby befriends her. In the end card of "Princess Fragrance", he can be seen watching fireworks with her.
Chloé Bourgeois
After Chloé gives him Tikki as a gift for the sick children, believing her to be a stuffed toy, Prince Ali is slightly confused by Chloé's false modesty, and later on, he turns her down to spend time with Rose.
