= History = Maira was born in Midgar to a single mother. She has very few memories of her before she died, and unfortunately most of them are unfavorable. She grew up knowing that her mother had been wooed by a mysterious man who left her with a child to raise on her own soon after she became pregnant. Her mother remained extremely bitter about this turn of events. Maira was a sickly child, and to support her ran a small potions shop in the slums. They were almost constantly on the edge of poverty, often homeless. It was no surprise when her mother and Maira both took ill. Despite her history of sickness, Maira miraculously survived the sickness, while her mother did not. Thus, at the age of six Maira became an orphan. It was also at this time that Maira began to see Uist. He appeared to her in a fever-dream, and when she woke, clear-headed, he was there before her and has been by her side ever since. Maira was unsure of his presence at first, but alone as she was he became a balm to her. He assured her that he meant her no harm, that indeed he was there to help protect her and guide her. He is a precious friend, her constant companion, even if no one else in the world can see him. Maira was taken in by an orphanage where she spent the remainder of her childhood, living in the shadow of ShinRa, though she did not have any strong feelings of hate for the company as many do. Her last brush with illness had not been her last, and Maira spent much of her time between fevers, struggling to survive. Unfortunately, this paired with the fact she talked to an invisible friend caused her to not really have much in the way of friends growing up. The woman who owned the orphanage was kind to her, but distant. The other children were reluctant to speak with her, and she could rarely keep up with their games. Around the age of thirteen, Maira saw a vast improvement in her health. It was at this time that she also discovered that she had a talent for magic. While materia was certainly difficult to come by in the slums, she found a fire materia while exploring an abandoned building with Uist. Uist encouraged her to keep it and wanted to help her nurture her gift for magic. By the time she was sixteen, Maira began to aspire to a better life. She thought to perhaps join ShinRa, who she thought would train her to use her magic. Clearly, it was not meant to be, for just before she was about to pursue that avenue, Wutai’s Godo Kisaragi makes a pact with the Shadow Lords that allows The Heartless to overrun Maira’s world. With SOLDIER and Wutai fighting and Heartless invading Midgar, Maira was caught in an attack. She tried, with her one materia, to protect the orphanage and met with some degree of success. However, there were too many Heartless for her to possibly handle, forcing her to flee. Following the advice of an unknown voice, she was led by Uist to a door she had never seen before, through which she fled, with no other choice. So it was that she left her home behind. Maira woke in Traverse Town, tucked into a bed in the second district’s Inn. Uist sat by her side, unseen by the moogle that kindly looked after her while she was unconscious. Traverse Town, being no stranger to refugees from Worlds of Darkness became home to Maira, where she got a job mixing and selling potions at a small shop while she continued to study magic in her free time. While exploring Traverse Town and other worlds, Maira met and has befriended many people who have truly changed the course of her life. She befriended Avira, who started the group VALKYRI, and is proud to be the group’s second member. = Personality = Maira is young; naive in some ways but world-weary in others. She is no stranger to poverty and struggle. She is no stranger to loneliness. That said, she usually manages to remain upbeat. While the darkness of her world haunts her still, she finds hope knowing there are people who fight against that darkness. It was an amazing and exciting revelation for her to find out that there are more worlds out there, full of possibility. She hopes that she will be able to help fight against the darkness and perhaps see her world put to rights. Maira is eager to make friends and connections. She is kind hearted almost to a fault, friendly and often exuberant. Having been hopelessly ill for most of her life, her new health (while still below average) gives her a chance to experience life. This new outlook has also given her a thirst for thrill seeking. The rush of adrenaline is something very much sought after by Maira. She has developed a love of all things fast; vehicles etc. If Traverse Town had an amusement park, she would be a frequent visitor. Maira also has a love of sweet foods and strange food combinations. It is not unlike her to put ice cream on top of steak and pour chocolate sauce on chicken. She might very well live on ice cream if she could. She continues to work on her magic, which is quite powerful. Indeed, it is too powerful for her many a time. She has trouble controlling her emotions and has been known to occasionally set her bed aflame at night whilst in the grip of a nightmare. She hopes to gain better control and sorely needs training, which it seems she might just get from the kind-hearted Aerith! = Relationships = {| border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 745px; height: 194px;" ! scope="col" width="80" | |- |<b>Allies</b> |Uist, [[Avira]], [[Angantyr Vespar]], [[Aerith]], [[Faruja]], [[Ivo Galvan]], [[Katyna Redsvaren]], [[Kaze]], [[Legion]], [[Mercade Alexander]], [[Minerva]], [[TRON]], [[Sarafina Carenze]], [[Percival]], [[Skoll Ulfang]], [[Vespa]], [[Tifa Lockhart]] |- |<b>Adversaries</b> |[[Leon]], [[Morrighan Alazne]] [[Garland]], [[LEXUS]], [[Seith]] |- |<b>Acquaintances</b> |[[Ariel]], [[Artyom]], [[CHIEF]], [[Deelel]], [[Deidra]] [[Evja]], [[Faris]], [[Hati]], [[Kamon Lionward]], [[Kim Possible]], [[Lavi]], [[Leida]], [[]], [[Riku]], [[Raiya Fujihara]], [[Isaac Hanlon]], [[Reize Seatlan]], [[Sora]], |} ===Allies=== {| border="1" cellpadding="2" |- ! scope="col" width="100" | Name ! scope="col" width="100" | Status ! scope="col" width="500" | Thoughts |- |Uist||Deep regard||"My first friend, my almost constant companion and protector...my /father/....I miss you so much." |- |[[Avira]]||BFF-ness||"I will always be here to support you Avira, no matter what!
