Reveling in her powers and overly cocky, she grew older but not wiser. Not seeing her parents also was a catalyst for her acting out, and she quickly hit a rebellious stage, believing she knew all and the guild had nothing more to teach her. In her infinite wisdom she decided to become an adventurer. Maria, her mother, and her 'auntie' - one of the lifelong friends that had helped her family get to Ul'dah - had a 'discussion' about it which quickly turned to violence. That Maria's first lesson in how she wasn't as omnipotent as she believed herself to be. <br><br>She was eventually allowed to leave on one condition - she could not go alone. Blue Willow(Auntie) sent her two oldest sons with her - Mighty Wave(Guardian) and Fearless Storm(Pugilist). During their adventures they met an Elezen conjurer named Vioxax Bijat and another hyur black mage simply known by Julian. They traveled together for a few years, until Maria and Fearless Storm decided to get married. <br><br>Shortly after their marriage the war came, and then the Calamity, and Maria lost her friends and her husband. The loss of Fearless Storm, who had first been like a best friend/brother figure, then a close fighting companion, to lover, devastated her. Instead of going into a depression, she channeled her energy into a deep, simmering rage. Instead of mourning she traveled, wandering aimlessly. She grew close to no one, did odd jobs as a mercenary or seamstress, and pursued the way of the black mage. <br><br>[[File:Fireishot.jpg|frameless|right|Maria during her darker years.]]For years she moved around Thanalan, avoiding family and friends. Maria changed her name and appearance, covering herself from head to toe so as to be unrecognizable. While doing this she searched ruins and dipped into forbidden research and magics - anything that she could find that would aid her in gaining power. Her end goals shifted constantly - did she want the power to wipe out the Garleans? Did she simply want the skills to eliminate those in power? Or perhaps she simply wanted power so nothing or no one could ever hurt her again. As time went on and she went deeper into the black arts, it eventually devolved into: "Because I need it." <br><br>However, her pursuits could not quell the burning rage within, and it became so overwhelming she drew the attention of a strange knight named Adel. This person offered to help Maria control the darkness threatening to consume her - if she abandoned magic for the sword. After some 'discussion', she eventually agreed.).</font></div><br> |

She visited his grave and began to collect money to buy a house - one of the two things they had dreamed of doing together. Through various interactions with others, and by 'locking away' what she felt to be negative parts of herself, Maria began to open up and slowly morph into the person she is today. A year and a half ago she put aside the sword and picked back up her staff, feeling secure in herself once more. She picked back up her research, but shifted the focus more toward the historical. Her aim being to learn from the mistakes of the past so as not to repeat them. <br><br> Months ago she was approached by Konner Kinkaid and invited to a company venture. Maria enjoyed being around the people there, felt welcome, and joined the OS&R for a time as their seamstress and offensive magic specialist. She eventually departed from the company and now has all but retired from adventuring altogether. She assists others if needed/asked, and offers consult to other companies regarding historical research, but is not affiliated with anyone nor has any desire to do so. <br><br>When Topmast Apartments opened, Maria procured a place to stay and moved some of her belongings in. She continued her research in historical magics, until she managed to finally find a small plot of land for a home. With the funds she had managed to save from her odd jobs here and there, she had her home built, and finally began her dream by turning her apartment into an alteration shop. Although it depleted the rest of her funds, she managed to finally open Maria's Alterations (Mist, Ward 5, Topmast Apts SD #6). She currently only takes on clients she already had, and has a request box, but hopes to have regular hours once she gains a reputation and more customers. She plans to consider adoption within the next few cycles, once her business gets off the ground..</font></div> |
