Trivia

Personality

A fun-loving and energetic young woman, Maya believes in living life to the fullest by partying as hard as possible each and every night. Fortunately, she's smart enough to know exactly how much 'as hard as possible' is, as she's a mathematical genius who can keep exact track of her finances in real time down to the penny. When she meets her exact allocated budget, she knows that it's time to chill out and even when drunk has the self-control to actually do so. Friendly and flirty, she encourages anyone she likes to join in on her escapades. After all, it's not irresponsible of her when she can calculate their budgets alongside her own. As such, despite the initial impression people may get of her being a bit of a valley girl, she's actually one of the most responsible and loyal friends you could have, if a bit tight when it comes to money...

Misc.

• Her favourite food is orange gelatin.

Background

Maya's high intelligence was noticed as early as elementary school, from where she was pushed into pursuing higher education, skipping several grades. As she was a child she didn't fathom the significance of this and was very unhappy with it, feeling as though she was being deprived from having fun like other kids. Once in high school, people jealous of her intelligence and looks began spreading rumours that her intellect must simply be the result of a peculiar ability, rather than through any hard work of her own. Offended by this, as she indeed does not possess a peculiar ability, she decided that she'd rather just be happy than 'live her up to her potential', and dropped out of high school.

Though she initially had to take up multiple jobs get by, Maya's hard-working nature was proven as she found success as a personal accountant, amateur model, and Peculiar Ops agent. Nowadays she continues to work in all three of these sectors simply because she enjoys them, particularly at Peculiar Ops, having made good friends like Dana, Mustang and Cassie there. She strives to prove that non-peculiar people can get by there on their own skills, without having to rely on those with abilities.

Synopsis

Maya is one of the unfortunate agents who ends up getting roped into Saki's scheme to form a rival squad to Mustang and Dana's gang. Though dismayed to be a part of it, Maya does her best to manage the squad efficiently, only to have efforts thwarted at every turn by Saki's wild temper.
