I too think that the actress playing Alicia (and, probably but not
certainly, Alicia the character) is of Middle-Eastern descent, or possibly
somewhere down the eastern coast of Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, etc., where
interracial marriages are somewhat common). I wouldn't have said Indian, but
I could be wrong.

Parvati and Padma Patil, on the other hand, are almost definitely Indian
Sub-Continent (could be Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Bangladeshi, etc.) from their
names.
