Bio

A war doctor who became a private physician when the fighting was over. Coral Rem's family hired her to look after their son and she's been by his side ever since. When Coral left on the Velvet Eclipse she followed him along, determined to keep him healthy. Haunted by her past as a soldier she struggles to fight against enemies, but she has a duty to act as Coral's bodyguard in the more dangerous parts of their journey, despite Coral himself refuting this idea. The kind of person to act like a stone cold killer while internally begging the other person to get intimidated and leave.

Despite all this, she insists on carrying around both a rapier and a longsword so she has access to both a light attack and a heavy attack.

Character Relations

Coral

The person she finds it easiest to joke around with, and her longest term patient. Worries a lot about him and questions how dangerous the journey to the other end of the world is going to be, but knows he needs to go out and experience the world too.

Plakad

A little suspicious, being a complete stranger, but amicable enough. Having someone to fight beside helps her open up a little more and accept more sides of herself. They have a certain amount of camaraderie.

Gallery

Between the big round glasses and thick eyebrows and short-ish brown hair I felt a little odd about how similar the design was to another person's character. I tried to tweak it a little by adding a braid and a bit more of an "old-fashioned" hairstyle, also (hopefully) made her look a little older as well. I think this design fits her character a little better, but it's going to take a while to used to.

Some sketches of Maria that turned up in groupdraws, featuring Coral and Plakad.

Old material

Initial design pass that turned into a reference sheet.

Finished reference sheet, I'm not certain exactly how her swords attach.
