Name: Maria Schneider Rank: Flieger Age: 20 Height: 5ft 5" Weight: 9 Stone Hair Color: Blonde Eye Color: Blue Planet/Station of Origin: New Berlin Background Information:
Maria had it all until she was 16, her family loved her - there was always money on tap. She was accepted to be the next big thing on the holonet until a brutal robbery on her home left both her parents dead and all her worldly possessions either stolen or destroyed. As her father didn't believe much in insurance, the payouts were miserable and Maria swore revenge. After training herself how to fly and shoot, she joined the secondary ranks of the Military. She wants to find those responsible for her parents death - the only link the police have was that the assailants came from Liberty. This is as much a reason as any to see all Liberty forces (lawful and unlawful) swept aside.
In order to get to her current position, Maria has had to do some dark and mysterious things which haunt and trouble her. She has a massive distaste for Junkers. This may have something to do with ending up on Bonn Station after her parents were murdered and being "sold" to a Junker slave driver on Kreuzberg. No-one currently knows how Maria developed her mechanical and repair skills, or how she escaped from the Junker's clutches. Merely that she gained control over a Wraith VHF and used it to escape and join the Military.
Maria is very vulnerable, and desperately needs the support of her fellow officers and superiors in order to regain the self confidence that she used to have as a child.
Basic Personality Traits:
Maria is a sharp and well educated young woman. She had to balance school life with her singing career on the Manhattan broadway. After her life changing events, she has spiraled into a pit of despair and self loathing. She is disgusted at what she had to do to live and escape, however she is determined to make a better life for herself now. The skills she did learn in those dark four years have a massive effect on how she reacts. She knows she is beautiful, and she knows that she can turn a mans head and she uses such beauty as a weapon. The only problem is her lack of confidence, which will come in time.
