My DA is named Maria Lambert. And she is not having a good time.

Lots of people just make personas that follow the storyline so far established, but my story goes off that. Just a heads-up in case that's mentioned at one point.

Many people have different colors for their DAs, most commonly (that I've seen) being purple and green, but Maria has two. Orange, before imprisonment in the mirror, and purple with hints of oranger after imprisonment.

Since WKM takes place in the 1920s, I decided to shove her into that mirror for a hundred years or so, bringing her out sometime around late 2020. Christmas, to be more specific.

Maria's... not mentally well. She wasn't from the beginning;-I mean, she met Damien at a college party, so what do you expect?- but it got worse after his and Celine's betrayal. Especially since she loved him.

And he loved her.

She's a sweetheart, and a pacifist at best. You'll know when she's pissed or scared because that's when she gets violent and desperate. Especially the first time she meets Dark/Damien after imprisonment in the mirror.

Best personality trait? Probably her conversational skills. She's an ex-politician, what did you expect? She knows how to talk people down, how to draw secrets out. there's something about her that most people just like, though it goes down a little after her time in the mirror. It's a little unnerving to look in her eyes. (They're purple after she gets out.)

Mark finds her and wipes her memory of the manor's events after she gets out (like- directly after she gets out. She doesn't get a break) and that makes her a little... oblivious for a while. It’s kind in the idea to give her a new life, but twisted that he is hiding her from the truth and not letting her make her own choices.

Dark find out. He gets pissed.

Cue her finding out about her abilities during a heist.

This leads into me rambling about my personal categories for people who came out of the house messed up. And that’s a post for another day, but just know Maria falls under the “body horror/cryptid/shapeshifter” category, along with some teleportation, glitching, and illusion work. Mirrors hate her. Fish fear her. Literally two men want her and have been in a custody battle for a really long time but let’s let them deal with that-

Anyways. I love her. She’s my queen. There’s much more, but I thought that’s enough infodumping for now.

*cough* Yeah
