'''Alma''' is a character in ''[[Heroes of Mana]]'' and a non-player character in ''[[Trials of Mana]]''. An Amazon of [[Laurent]], Alma feels no need to express her feelings; though under her tough exterior is a deep and thoughtful soul. She has deep feelings for [[Joster]] but set those feelings aside when she found out that her best friend, [[Minerva]], had fallen in love with him. She helps [[Roget]], hoping to reclaim her kingdom. By the time of the events in ''Trials of Mana'', she has become a loyal servant of the Laurent royal family.

Alma would eventually retire from the Amazons, after her friend Minerva died during the birth of her second child. From then on she was the nanny to [[Riesz]] and [[Elliot (Trials of Mana)|Elliot]]. When Nevarl seizes Citadel Laurent, she is among those who survived and started a resistance movement in the outskirts of Heavensway. When the Amazons retake Laurent thanks to the heroes, she stays there for the rest of the game and welcomes the princess and prince home at the end.

As the chamber maid of Citadel Laurent, Alma was privileged to have heard of a relic known as the Kind Sphere, used as part of a rite afforded Laurentian monarchs. She tells Riesz where the sphere may be held as part of her quest to unseal the legendary [[Class 4]].
