| Physical Description: |
Of average height, average skin, hair, and eye tones, and what could be
considered 'average' dress, Mariette blends into the crowd pretty damn
seamlessly. She's a typical example of a human in Star City: the product of
generations-worth of mixed genes. She stands with an air of authority, even for
a fifteen year-old; her eyes reveal a sort of fearless attitude that has, more
then once in the past, gotten her in to trouble. Mariette's clothing is often in bright colours--yellows, oranges, pinks, etc. The style, while typical of Star City, is often looked upon as... odd by outsiders. With tank-tops cut at strange angles, sleeves that don't attach to any shirt, shorts that may or may not be skirts, and boots that often look more like sandals--well, she can look interesting. To top it all off, Mariette has several cyborware additions to her body--some that she has done herself, some by her mother. Along her arms are several Lumi-glow pads--their colouring is a sort of pink/orange. She has two 'antennae' (that is, glowing orbs of the same colour as her lumiglow pads) that hover a few inches from her forehead, as well as one enhanced eye (which itself displays info over others who already have installed Cyborware). The tendons on the back of her arms have been embellished with simple metal filigree, each 'chord' ending just before her fingers in a little, sharp hook. (dangerous looking, but she uses them more to hold wires when installing 'ware). Finally, her left leg has been replaced up to her knee with a standard replacement limb. In shiny metal, it's plain for the world to see. |
| Personality: | Born with her fathers sharp wit, and her mothers even sharper sense for detail, Mariette could have grown up a hopelessly stuck-up, rancid sort of character. Well, she could have if it weren't (at the same time) for her parents being who they are. For one thing, her father is a man of good manners and charisma, both of which have seaped into his upbringing of her. Secondly, her mother has, since Mariette was a little girl, been teaching her all there is to know about her own profession--Cyborware. While the girl has had a goal to focus on in her life, which gives her determination, and the people skills to get her where she needs to go, she still has a streak of selfishness that's going to be there forever. She sees life in itself as a kind of adventure: nothing is too dangerous to not be fun. Never has, never will be. She plans on having EVA cyborware installed when she reaches the legal age, but until then, she can always find adventures both on Star City, and wherever else she can find. |
