Profile


Physical Appearance

  • Red hair exclusively worn in ponytail that trails down to knee level
  • Red eyes
  • Fair skinned
  • Tall in height
  • Physically fit with lithe and strong muscles
  • Medium sized breasts

Clothing Style

Maranda's uniform consists of a black bodysuit with cutouts on the sides, shoulders, neck, and collarbone areas. She has various brown straps and belts for her weapons and supplies, and she wears black gloves and boots along with a black headband as accessories. Her gloves have some red cutouts, and her suit has some red line designs throughout. While on the job though, she ends up wearing a lot of different outfits to better blend in to her environment and go unseen. Her uniform is mostly for infiltration missions since it provides better protection from certain weapons and from rifting/magic.

Her casual style is typically trendy but not girly (I'd almost describe it as California trendy, but she wouldn't have any idea what California is considering her setting). She prefers cooler colors and rarely wears dresses or skirts. She'll more commonly wear jeans/kapris/shorts with a blouse of some kind with minimal accessories.


Personality

Maranda is the confident and cheeky leader of her faction of agents. Although she treats her work very seriously, she tends to have a sassy demeanor while going about her work and interacting with others. She finds a lot of fun in her assignments, regardless if they are challenging or not, and she will approach her tasks or enemies with an air of playful or teasing confidence. At times she can come off as cocky, but she knows her own limitations and knows how to gauge the gravity of any serious situations. She's a skilled actor and can take on any persona she needs to fit her assignment or better blend in, but when not required to hide her identity she tends to come off as a little flirty when speaking to others, especially her enemies to egg them on or throw them off their game. She tends to be a firm and well spoken mentor toward those she needs to look after, like her team members, but in general she prefers to be independent and not rely on much outside help regarding her team. She's capable of keeping a cool head no matter how grim things might be, but the only thing that can throw her off are terrible jokes.

  • A bit elitist and doesn't do anything that she deems beneath her

Backstory

Maranda graduated from Sakavist Academy and joined the elite Ninja Faction headed by their former mentor. Due to this, she has no memory of their time in the Academy from the memory wiping process after leaving the school. After the Academy was brought down by a student rebellion headed by The Lady Anatola, the Ninja Faction broke ties with the Sakavist organization and took to working independently, since the head of the faction was never very loyal to them in the first place. They now carry out their own work while occasionally taking assignments from the Anatolian Empire.

Currently Maranda and her team are hunting down the remaining leaders of Sakavist. Most of her knowledge of her past comes from her sister, Mini, who was a year behind her and didn't graduate before the Academy fell.


Trivia:

  • Maranda and Mini were created from a silly exaggerated bit my sister and I did of one over-the-top ninja and a clueless one. This tied into me writing some stories for my 4th grade class that involved them as "Crazy Ninjas." It was based on the general composition of the show Totally Spies in the sense that it included girl agents (in this case, ninjas instead of spies) getting missions to save the world from various villains.
    • Originally it was just Maranda and Mini, but in the 3rd or 4th installation of the series, I introduced Bebe to make the team three members like Totally Spies.
