Appearance
Maria has dark brown hair with the tips of her hair coloured from blue to light purple. She wears a bright red punk rock styled top made from fake polyester fur and dark red stylish trowsers. Her eyes are green. Most of her taste in style is based on one of her favourite book characters called the empress of change.

She has two small fox ears that are somewhat hidden underneath her hair to avoid her being made fun of for being a fauna. She also has a small tail hidden by her dress. She also has a tatoo of a mape on her head that was made by her father.

As she gets older Maria gets given strong lightweight knight-like armour from Master. The design of the armour is the same as Masters armouruses the same shock absorbing technique that woodpeckers have in their skulls to absorb impact and nullify them.

Personality
Maria is a very calm and playful little girl. She has a fear of pirates and Grimm. Maria likes to play with and sometimes even pretend to be Maki Kuronami. She is good friends with team OGRE and team MAID and often writes to them.

She wants to become a great huntress in the future and trains regularly. She often studies different battle techniques and sometimes constructs home made obsticle courses out of anything she can find. She has a slightly morbid sense of humour.

Abilities
As a child, Maria has very limited combat skills. She like most faunus does possess excellent night vision and she is good at finding hiding places. Her aura was unlocked by Maki. So far she only seems to have a quick-healing ability.

She has learned from cooking programs how to be a skilled cook and regularly cooks for Melira and Saffron and practices any and all combat techniques that see finds in books or on tv shows. She does have good building abilities and tries to train often.

Backstory
Maria was the daughter of Billy Bones. Billy was a pirate. The crew he was with was small but they received a job from a anonymous person who wanted them to deliver a shipment of dust to him and he was willing to pay them a handsome amount of money for their hard work. But during a stormy night, Billy stole the dust and hid it on land.He then tattooed the map onto Maria. When the pirates saw that their dust was missing, they examined the scene and discovered from the clues they found that it was Billy who stole it. They handed him and Maria the black spot, a pirates death sentence.

Billy and Maria then escaped at early dawn and ran into the Emerald forest. Billy told Maria to meet him at the temple at night so he could keep the treasure for himself. But after they split up, Maria got attacked by Grimm and was saved by a student at Beacon called Gretel. She then took Maria to Beacon where the members of team MAID and team OGRE nursed her back to health and protected her from the pirates who were trying to kill her. Maria became good friends with them and became a fan of Maki due to Makis personality and because Maki activated Marias aura when she was badly injured by one of the pirates.

After a while Maria was placed into a well guarded orphanage where she was adopted by her favourite author Melira "Goldstein". She frequently writes letters to her friends at Beacon and lives a happy life with her new guardian.
