[b]Name:[/b] Marianne Malvo (legally changed) Natalie Nishimura (birth name) [b]Nickname:[/b] [b]Age and Birthday:[/b] 51; May 20, 1963 [b]Sexuality:[/b] Asexual formerly Bisexual with a heavy preference for women [b]Appearance:[/b] http://scifiempire.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Agents-of-SHIELD-Seeds-Ming-Na-as-Melinda-May.jpg [b]Personality:[/b]In her early life she was friendly, prone to playing pranks on her coworkers, and generally happier, though still rather quiet. Later in her life she became emotionally scarred and caused her to become the rigid, somewhat withdrawn person starting with a tragic experience. She is fiercely loyal doing whatever it takes to keep her friends safe, sometimes her methods are harsh even cruel. She subscribes to the philosophy that the morality of one’s actions can only be judged by the consequences of the actions. [b]History:[/b] She was raised in a family with a long history of military service, she wanted nothing to do with the sexual discrimination inherent in the military. She chose to serve differently, she joined the CIAI. After training she moved to Europe. She served throughout the waning years of the Cold War. She performed several assassinations a few with a bullet from several buildings away but most were with poisons slipped into drinks of the men she was flirted and danced with. The assassinations never bothered her, they were orders and she always followed orders without question. After the dissolution of Soviet Union she was recalled back to the United States, it was her first time back since she finished training. It didn’t feel like home, she was constantly restless and on edge. For a time she trained future female agents, but with the budget cuts there wasn’t many to recruit. In 1993 after the February 26th bombing of the World Trade Center she was put on counter-terrorism. Her specific assignment was to root out and eliminate those who financed terrorists. It was on her tenth assignment that everything went pear-shaped. An oil tycoon with a beef against the west was funding terrorism, it was supposed to be a simple mission, dose his drink at a party and leave. As always there was security and security requires a team. Her team watched from the outside, at one point half her team became corrupted, those that were corrupted lead an assault to protect the target. The members of the team that weren’t corrupted were all killed. She was nearly killed; the person who shot her was her lover. After being shot she tracked them down, to this day she can’t and won’t recall everything that happened, all she can and will tell you is that it was completely necessary to destroy the entire building killing a hundred people because it was absolutely necessary to end the threat to every nation on the planet. She was sent to prison for the rest of her life until she was approached by Mr. Lincoln with an invitation to endless wonder. She accepted the invitation and has been agent for the Warehouse ever since, as a Warehouse agent she has seen endless wonders & terrors. She has seen her friends, coworkers, and partners died, one thing has always remained the same she lived, constantly watching those she cared for die. When she was promoted to Warehouse supervisor she took on a consequentialism view point to ensure that no one under her charge would ever die.
