*Background: Maria is a unremarkable young woman in appearance, and at the age of nineteen, more mildly pretty than stunningly beautiful (or spectacularly ugly). She tends to appear vague, nose most often buried in a book or pamphlet, than paying attention to events around her, but this is not the case, as the air of distraction masks an active and inquiring mind. She is of average height and medium build, a dark brown eyed brunette, with a olive complexion only a little pale from many hours spent reading rather than sitting in the sun, flirting from the balcony as her younger sister Diana does, ever hopeful of hooking a rich fish from the sea of young men. | *Background: Maria is a unremarkable young woman in appearance, and at the age of nineteen, more mildly pretty than stunningly beautiful (or spectacularly ugly).

| β | *Her elder brother Antonio | + | *Her elder brother Antonio fails to understand this, but he's the one with the family business to run, and the hand on the family purse, not her. Family relations have been complicated since she discovered his wife Bianca plotting with Mama and Diana to marry the inconvenient sister-in-law/daughter/elder sister off to the first suitor to hand. Maria's carefully considered response was to quietly make her way to her brother's chambers, and threaten Antonio with castration. |
*Perhaps the fact she was holding a blade at the time may have convinced him of her sincerity, perhaps the rightness of her cause, the advancement of magical learning for both greater knowledge and family profit, spoke to him, perhaps the presence of his mistress, (hastily concealed behind the bed curtains) may have the reason for his counter-offer of a large purse, and his blessing to depart as soon as possible to search for new tutors and other sources of mystical lore. | *Perhaps the fact she was holding a blade at the time may have convinced him of her sincerity, perhaps the rightness of her cause, the advancement of magical learning for both greater knowledge and family profit, spoke to him, perhaps the presence of his mistress, (hastily concealed behind the bed curtains) may have the reason for his counter-offer of a large purse, and his blessing to depart as soon as possible to search for new tutors and other sources of mystical lore. | ||
