CHARACTERName:Maria Fortuna
Age: 37
Gender: Female
Symbol: - White Fang Symbol:
Occupation: White Fang Member
Appearance: Maria's most noticeable trait, being a faunus, are a pair of fluffy bear ears on the top of her head. She has brown, slightly wavy, fluffy, shoulder length hair and a similarly colored bear's tail, though it is normally under her clothes or poking through a hole in her pants. Maria also has warm chocolate eyes and a slightly smaller than usual nose. Height wise, she is 5'6 and clothing wise, out of her White Fang uniform, she prefers pants.
- Face claim:
History: Maria's parents were killed at an early age. They had lived in a small apartment in a not too well off part of town. During the revolution, when Maria was still a teenager she came home to find her parents murdered by two humans, the knife just coming out of her mother's neck. Terrified as the two men came towards her, she fought back and killed them.
A few White Fang members who had been watching them as prospective recruits came in upon hearing the screaming and found her knelt by the bodies, blood drying on her hands. She has been a member ever since. After recruitment, she had been placed in Silenus' garrison, mostly taking part in other recruitment operations. Over time she had developed a sort of older brother-younger sister relationship with him, though at times she still tries to remember that he is her commanding officer.
Personality: Although she is a White Fang, Maria does not hate humans simply for being so. When it comes to normal humans, she simply dislikes interacting with them, either of fear or suspicion about their intentions. At the core, she is simply unnerved at being surrounded by humans. However, the second a human hurts a fellow faunus in what she sees as a racist or hateful way, she instantly hates them and immediately gets cold, recalling her memories of her parent's murders. The fellow faunus though, she is warm and kind, caring, and very considerate.
Recently, Maria also tends to show a cuter side of her around her kind, and if she were to warm up to someone, she gets very affectionate. At times she can be motherly, impulsive, shy, and single-minded, depending on the situation. Two of these times though are when she is drunk and when she is sleepy. Only a social drinker, Maria only drinks with others. However, she does have a weak tolerance to alcohol, driving whatever mood she was in to be stronger as she gets drunk (e.g. if she were sad, she would get more and more depressed, or if she were nervous, she would get more and more fidgety). Sleepy Maria is a different thing all together. After a good couple hours of rest, Maria wakes up twice. The first time, she is still mostly asleep, her decision making fairly flawed and doing what she wants, regardless of the repercussions. She is also much more touchy-feelly and childlike in her speech, not really caring about what the conduct on touching others is while she's still an eighth awake. After a few minutes, she simply falls asleep again before waking up normally.
Strength: Being a bear faunus, she has much more strength than her appearance lets on, allowing her to wield her massive blade in one hand, though she prefers two. Also, she is highly skilled in acrobatics, much like other White Fang, and can easily traverse cityscapes. She is also a good shot with her pistols, an accurate range of 45 feet. After some training, she has grown better at using her weapons, rivaling hunters in skill though a veteran, or someone of equal skill, still outmatches her.
Weakness: Other than her strength, Maria is not nearly as good at fighting as veteran hunters or huntresses are. She can at most fight four or five beowolf at once. Also, she is fairly gullible. Her current practice with her weapon means she is still quite as well versed in it as a seasoned hunter would be. Thus she would have difficulty fighting one, even hunters in training may prove a problem one on one. Also, not quite used to the swords size and weight, she still has difficulty stopping the blade mid swing, needing to complete the swing or let it strike something to stop it.
Semblance: None.
WEAPON- Original Weapons:
Name:Standard White Fang sword.
Primary Form: A standard, one edged sword give to her by the White Fang. It has a red hilt, silver blade, and a curved hand guard.
Name: Standard Whit Fang pistol.
Primary Form: A standard White Fang pistol given to her by the White Fang. It holds 10 rounds in each magazine.
History: These weapons were given to Maria upon her recruitment into the White Fang. She has been training with them ever since.
Name:Ursa major
Primary Form: A large sword (about 5 feet end to end) with an extra grip behind the blade, above the hilt. Near the tip is the opening of a barrel, the firing mechanism of the gun being inside the blade and the trigger on the hilt. Two large magazines, the shape of a normal assault rifle magazine are on the blade, one on each side below the second grip. When empty, they simply spring out. Maria has a large scabbard on her back, though one side remains open to easily pull the sword out.
History: An "upgraded" version of Maria's original sword. Upgrade may be the wrong word to use though as only the hilt of the original was still used.
- Ursa Major:
Name: Ursa Minors
Primary Form: A pair of White Fang pistol modified for easier reloading. At her thighs, Maria has upgraded holsters which allow her to place a new magazine by simply swinging the empty grip of the pistol by a ready to use magazine at the top of the holster, working much like how a magazine holds bullets. In total, she as twelve extra magazines, twelve on each side.
