Alair is the sister of Lune, a general of Laya in the ancient war that devastated civilization aboard the Alisa III. When we first meet her in Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom, she has been captured by the Orakians of Divisia after waking from a thousand years of cold sleep. In order to progress through the game, it is necessary to rescue her. She heads off to Lune soon after, appearing later to offer her hand in marriage to Nial.

Following in the footsteps pioneered by Phantasy Star II, Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom gave each playable character an individual head shot portrait to make them more recognizable to players. This was especially vital for this game, which tended to use the same set of graphics for several characters with slight color changes. Unlike the similar pictures of Nei and friends, however, these portraits were used for speech in important story scenes and the standard character menu. The previous game restricted the portrait availability to Rolf's house, but this one allowed the players to see the characters at any time they were available for play.
