history
A young girl born to slaves in Bosco, which was about the life she let there. Even though she doesn't remember a lot from there she still can remember the screams, the blood, the desperation and the face of her parents. Her life there was miserable if not outright lethal for a girl her age. Being a single child with no brothers or sisters, even then her parents never planned for her. When she was six years old, there was a massive rebellion and both many slaves and slavers died or were wounded. Many others used to confusion to escape. Maria and her parents among them. The rebellion was quickly crushed and most runaways hunted and taken back. As every slave was branded on their backs with the sign which depended on their owner, this wasn't really that difficult. As long as they still were in Bosco they could easily be found and taken back with magic. There were little to no slaves with magic potential and absolutely none that ever got a chance to develop their skills.
Maria's parents were very unlucky as they were ambushed by the border with Fiore. They however managed for Maria to escape alone, which probably had more to do with that she was just a child than they actually couldn't get her back. She wouldn't be really useful for years. For three days and three nights she wandered the unknown land known as Fiore until she met a dragon named Tsunami. Who was kind enough to take her in and feed and raise her. The dragon was way more relaxed, even if she was strict for normal human standards. Magic training was tough, but luckily Maria had magical potential she never knew she had. Maybe one day, with this she could go free her parents. Before she even felt remotely strong enough to take on that many people though Tsunami disappeared and her second mother in her life was gone just like that as well. All she could do now was traveling and living of charity or odd jobs. She was twelve at the time.
Wandering Fiore Alone for a while and to afraid to return to Bosco just on a whim she decided to find out what mages around here did for a living. With the information she gathered it seemed that most powerful mages gathered in guilds and that most mages that don't look up to guilds. She wondered if they accepted people that are on the run in other countries. Her mark on her still stung from time to time and it wouldn't go away even with healing magic. With that she looked around for a guild she liked. Raven Tail sounded scary, and Fairy Tail sounded outright weird if not dangerous. Sabertooth... Nothing seemed actually wrong with them, but they just weren't her style. Blue Pegasus sounded nice, but she heard someone say they were all rich, while Maria was happy if she had food and a roof for the night. From all guilds she could gather information on there were only two left. Lamia Scale, or Mermaid Heel. From what she could gather there wasn't anything wrong with either guild, but she figured the way it worked she probably couldn't join both. She asked if there was a guild here in this town, as it turned out Mermaid Heel was located here in Oak Town. She immediately looked to join that guild.
She was welcomed warmly in the guild and Maria liked what she saw here. For the first time in her entire life, she felt home, a place to belong. True her foster mother made her happy, but never made her feel at home. She started very small time, with just some odd jobs whens he first joined. When she was fifteen years old she teamed up with another girl, just a year older than she was. No matter where Maria wanted to look, what request she wanted to do. The other girl always agreed without remorse. That said she choose requests more often because Maria didn't know what to pick up first. They had many adventures together, from the lowest oceans till the highest mountains surrounding Fiore. One morning however, she had disappeared into nowhere and nobody in the entire town nor guild knew where she went. Maria went searching for her, but could never find her.
Primary Magic
Name: Water Dragon Slayer Magic Description: An ancient form of magic thought to humans by dragons to slay dragons. An offensive magic with destructive powers that also has the ability to heal others, but not the caster herself. Each dragon slayer can consume their own element to restore their own magic power and is completely immune to that single element. Maria's element being water this grants the user great environmental versatility which other elements usually lack. Dragon slayers by default also have increased senses: sight, hearing, smelling, taste and feeling.
Signature Ability
Name: Water Dragon's Boon Element: Water Description: The character can activate this ability to give herself and up to four other people have increased magical power and the ability to breath in both water and land. The increase in magic isn't really powerful, but enough to make a difference in fights between equally powerful mages. The user can keep this power up for long, but not too long, as that will make her tired.
