Character Name: Maria Cadenzavna Eve Series: Senki Zesshō Symphogear Timeline: Post season 3 (GX) Canon Resource Links:Maria @ Symphogear wiki
Personality: "Seilien coffin Airgetlam Tron”
From an early age Maria lived within a compound that housed orphans that would be the reincarnation of “Fine”, the only person she had was her little sister Serena. She wanted to protect those who were weak like her by accepting them and providing the connection they truly needed. After seeing her sister die in order to save her life and the lives of those around her, Maria’s heart was conflicted over not only her ideals but what her sister truly wanted to do with her own power.
Maria taking on the role of “Fine” in order to lessen the burden of those she cared for was also due to her conflicted heart and wanting to protect the weak from the strong. Because of this ideal Maria took in Shirabe and Kirika who were also held in a compound for orphans that could serve as the reincarnation of “Fine” and treats them like family.
Even with her ideals of protecting the weak, Maria didn’t want to have blood on her hands; and couldn’t mentally take the idea of killing or physically hurting another human, nor want anyone else to have to dirty their hands with that action. Along with this, part of the reasoning for her to be a singer and idol was to help those with music be able to use it to better themselves and change the world. Though in her case, it was being able to use a Symphogear in order to fight and save the world.
Because of this, she takes on the lie of being a double agent instead of the full blame for what happened due to her and FIS actions against mankind in order to allow those close to her maintain a normal life instead of being locked away. Which leaves her in a situation of being recorded all the time and not allowed out of sight from the government unless it’s for her job of being an idol. Another lie Maria willingly accepts because she doesn’t want anyone else to get hurt, even if she rather take the full blame for her actions and what she caused due to her own conflict.
Due to her nature of not being able to physically hurt others, Maria ends up being taken advantaged of often. Which causes her to have even more mental conflicts and what truly is the right thing to do. As seen with Dr. Ver using her in order to destroy and kill more and more in order for him to see his goal go through in the name of “justice”. Taking it all on as a mission that must be completed, even if she is lacking the determination to complete it and just talking herself out of the resolution needed. This also comes into play with why she agreed to help with the plans to start everything, since she wanted to create a peaceful world off the ideals that her sister held and what everyone else wanted in order to save everyone.
In less non emotional damage areas, Maria is extremely mother-like. Even stating that she feels like she’s being overly invested in making sure everyone is eating correctly and getting enough sleep. Along with taking food back from events that were brought in for her since she wants to make sure Shirabe and Kirika are eating enough veggies because they’re still growing. To having Shirabe and Kirika sleep next to her when it’s cold so they don’t get sick. Plus, covering up Tsubasa after her gear was damaged and her clothes vanished because she didn’t want her running around naked. Besides the motherly actions Maria ends up taking on, she also tends to talk big and then deeply regret it right after saying things. Her first meeting with Tsubasa ended up with her saying “try to keep up with me on stage” instead of just trying to introduce herself normally. Overall Maria is just a kind and sincere and cute girl who simply wants to help and protect everyone she holds dear.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
+ Momcat mode, Maria tends to treat Shirabe, Kirika and every one of the gear users as her family even making sure people are eating right and people go to school. +/- Keep moving even if you’re afraid, Maria is scared while fighting and going against anything that she knows she can’t beat on her own strength. Though it doesn’t stop her from putting on a stance victory and trying to remain calm in the face of danger. + Plus Maria knows that her weakness is what allows her to improve and be human, so she doesn’t use it as a reason for her own failures. + Singing, of course a top pop idol has some impressive singing skills. Even though Maria wasn’t trained or even went to school for music she is the only one who can stand with Tsubasa. +/- Being on stage is one of the few times she allows herself to have fun and smile, noted by pretty much everyone, though she tries to be serious all the time. - Past image, Maria has a hard time forgiving the mistakes made in the past, along with the death of her sister. Even after becoming friends with Tsubasa and the others it’s still the image she saw when Carol’s defense system went active. - False idol. A title she took up in order to allow Shirabe and Kirika to have normal lives. It’s a lie to her and the world saying that she was really a double agent and not really the cause of what F.I.S did. Maria hates putting on another mask and having people control her actions. Since she had to live a lie already while pretending to be “Fine”.
Pokémon Information Affiliation: Trainer Starter: Igglybuff Password: Atomic Fireball
Samples First Person Sample:
[ Maria was slightly confused at being told to go on an adventure and given a pink blob of a pokemon called Igglybuff. ]
This isn’t London or Tokyo… the staff for the venue are going to be angry if I’m late for the rehearsal time.
[ She did have her idol persona and whatnot going on back home that was making the whole wake up in a new place quite troubling. ]
This Igglybuff that they gave me, she’s quite cute I have to admit; almost like a squishy pink plushie you get for someone as a gift. As much as I want to take care of her though, I don’t think I can bring something like this home.
[ The Igglybuff was hiding in-between where Maria was sitting and her long hair, a bit shy at meeting anyone. ]
If any member of S.O.N.G sees this please make sure Kirika and Shirabe are at least being taken care of. Before I left for London I had left Chris in charge of them but if I can’t get a hold of people back home it’ll be a problem.
[ Maria let out a small sigh, she was worried about her two adoptive siblings more so then her current state. ]
Third Person Sample: Igglybuff was sitting on Maria’s shoulder trying to cover its face with the girl’s pink hair. Maria just smiled and moved a few strands of hair over to help, even if she was a bit shy it was cute. Even if she didn’t like admitting the fact she liked cute things out loud if someone saw this there would be no doubt someone would think that she wasn’t a nice person that wanted cute pokemon.
“Serena if you keep hiding like that I won’t be able to see you.”
Maria ended up naming the Igglybuff she was given as a “trainer” after her little sister. Maybe it was the smile the pokemon had or being a little shy or just giving off the vibe of something that needed to be protected. She instantly gave it that name and didn’t notice until she was out of the building with Igglybuff in her arms.
Serena poked her head out from the mass of hair now moved to the shoulder she was sitting on and looked at Maria to try and get the message of “Don’t worry!” across.
“I guess you’re just shy, that’s ok we just met so it’s natural”
All Maria could do was give a gentle smile before offering a bit of pokefood to try and build a stronger bond. It was going to take some time to build up trust, something she knew all too well already given what had already happened in her own life. Thankfully Serena could tell that Maria only wanted to be friends and get to know each other and gladly ate the food offered before leaping down from the shoulder into Maria’s arms.
“Did I do something wrong? Ahh where did I put the other food, you must still want food right?”
Sadly, Maria ended up taking the good gesture as being a bad caretaker and couldn’t relax. Maybe being an idol was a far better job compared to taking care of a pokemon.
Before we make our final decision on your application, we would like a revised personality section for Maria.
While the information is all there, we believe that proof-reading the section for spelling and grammar errors and re-organizing your paragraphs will make your points clearer and stronger. As it stands, we found the section difficult to follow and want to be sure what we learn about Maria is exactly what you want to convey.
You will have one week to complete these requests before the character is available again.
From an early age Maria lived within a compound that housed orphans that would be the reincarnation of “Fine”, the only person she had at first was her little sister Serena. Maria took in Shirabe and Kirika who were also held in a compound for orphans that could serve as the reincarnation of “Fine” and quickly treated them as adopted little sisters alongside her own blood related sibling. She wanted to protect those who were weak like her by accepting them and providing the connection they truly needed. After seeing her sister die in order to save her life and the lives of those around her. Only to hear the people around her say it was a waste for such a valuable test subject to just die. Maria’s heart was conflicted over not only her ideals but what her sister truly wanted to do with her own power. Maria ended up taking on the role of “Fine” in order to lessen the burden of those she cared for. But doing so conflicted her heart and ideals about wanting to protect the weak from the strong and so forth.
Even with her ideals of protecting the weak; Maria didn’t want to have blood on her hands which meant she couldn’t mentally take the idea of killing or physically hurting another human. Nor wanted anyone else to have to dirty their hands with that action in order to reach an end goal. It’s not until she gets her sister’s repaired Symphogear that she accepts that her weakness and ideals are her real strength. That chasing the image of what “true” strength is only causes conflict and isn’t what Maria needs in battle.
Due to her nature of not being able to physically hurt others, Maria ends up being taken advantaged of often as she doesn’t want to fight or risk injury to those she cares about. Which causes her to have even more mental conflicts and question what truly the right thing to do is. As seen with Dr. Ver using her in order to destroy and kill more and more in order for him to see his goal go through in the name of “justice”. All Maria could do was sit back and follow orders and get punched in the face if she didn’t go along. She took it all on as a mission that must be completed, even if she was lacking the determination to complete it. This also comes into play with why she agreed to help with the plans FIS had even put forth, since she wanted to create a peaceful world off the ideals that her sister held.
Part of the reasoning for Maria decided to be a singer and idol was to help those with music, for people listening to be able to use it to better themselves and change the world. Along with the fact she has the most fun and freedom while singing. Though in her case, it was being able to use a Symphogear in order to fight and save the world. Because of this, she takes on the lie of being a double agent instead of the full blame for what happened due to her and FIS actions against mankind. Allowing those close to her maintain a normal life instead of being locked away. Which leaves her in a situation of being recorded all the time and not allowed out of sight from government guards unless it’s for her job of being an idol. Another lie Maria willingly accepts because she doesn’t want anyone else to get hurt, even if she rather take the full blame for her actions and what she caused due to her own conflict and lack of resolve.
In less non emotional damage areas, Maria is extremely mother-like. Even stating that she feels like she’s being overly invested in making sure everyone is eating correctly and getting enough sleep. Often taking food back from events that were catered since she wants to make sure Shirabe and Kirika are eating enough veggies because they’re still growing. Mainly due to the fact FIS didn’t have much money and Maria was the one making any sort of money due to being an idol. Plus having Shirabe and Kirika sleep next to her when it’s cold so they don’t get sick, and covering up Tsubasa after her gear was damaged causing her clothes to vanish. Because she didn’t want her running around naked in front of the public. Besides the motherly actions Maria ends up taking on, she also tends to talk big and then deeply regret it right after saying things. Her first meeting with Tsubasa ended up with her saying “try to keep up with me on stage” instead of just trying to introduce herself normally. Which caused her to have a mini depression scene in her dressing room since she wanted to do her introduction like a normal person.
