Marie

Marie is a citizen who worked as a bartender at the tavern she build in the Oriana Kingdom. She was once a prostitute from the Lawless City, having spent five years working in a brothel at the age of 13 when she was sold and became one of the leading prostitutes in the red light district.

Appearance
Mary is a very beautiful young girl, sporting reddish purple hair and eyes and having white skin. In her second meeting with Shadow, she wore black lingerie in contrast to the color of her skin.

Personality
Mary has shown to be professional if a little naive. Although she does hope one day she could leave the life of a prostitute. Unlike most people, Mary is the one of the few people who saw Shadow as a hero.

Red Moon Incident
During the Red Moon incident, she is one of many attacked by the Ghouls and Vampire. She survived her first encounter with them thanks to Shadow. While her senior informs her that Shadow is a criminal, Mary didn't believe it. As the crisis worsened, she was saved by Shadow a second time. After he advised her to leave the city, Mary took all her belongings and used the opportunity to flee the city, earning her freedom once more. Mary thought about one day to repay Shadow for saving her life.

Oriana's "Black Rose" Civil War Wedding Incident
Marie would go to the Oriana Kingdom and set up a tavern there at the Saisho Stronghold, where she would garnered the lust of multiple men. While servicing a young teenage boy, a group of Oriana soldiers barged into her tavern, demanded Marie for her money otherwise they would had her sleep with them as an alternative payment. Marie offered what little money she had left in order to protect the boy from their wrath when he tried to defend her.

A while later, Marie heard her windows being opened. She looked out and found a mysterious jet-black robed figure. The figure left before Marie could respond. Marie noticed on the floor was the money she offered to the soldiers. She cried in happiness, realizing that Shadow had once more looked out for her.

Powers & Abilities
Marie doesn't display any combat capabilities nor magical abilities making her dangerously vulnerable.

Her life as a prostitute allowed her to be mentally prepared to offer herself to men.

Shadow
The two encountered one another at the Lawless City when the Red Moon incident occurred. Shadow cut down the ghoul that attempted to attack her, saving her life. Unlike her fellow prostitutes who viewed Shadow as a threat, Marie saw him as the only one protecting them from the vampires. It's heavily implied she developed romantic feelings for him.

After leaving her old life and started a business running a tavern, Marie wished to one day repay Shadow for what he'd done for her.
