[color=FF6E8A]Age:[/color] 19

[color=FF6E8A]Gender: [/color] Female

[color=FF6E8A]Race: [/color] Human

[color=FF6E8A]Rank:[/color] 6 of Sword

[color=FF6E8A]Appearance:[/color]
Maribel is a somewhat taller woman, standing at 6 feet, weighing about 170lbs, with a slim but strong build. She has silky red hair that she keeps loose and has light, brown eyes that elude a kind of innocent naivete. She looks to keep her appearance immaculate, sometimes spending hours just polishing her armor. Her casual attire consists of light, flowing dresses or tunics.

[color=FF6E8A]Personality:[/color]
Maribel is a devout follower of the goddess Mayon, swearing an oath to protect the weak from those that wish to bring them harm and bring said dark beings to justice. As such she is a kind and gentle individual, innocent in her world views that besides those that obviously display evil behavior, that all around her also follow her frame of mind in wishing to protect and serve. She is also quite naive, often believing the words of strangers as truth.

She has a strong sense of justice and a large protective streak, unhesitant in her efforts to keep others safe even at the cost of her own well-being, such as putting herself between others to stop anything that may be trying to bring them harm. She has a more defensive, support based mindset when in battle, looking to buff or protect her allies, doing minimal fighting unless she is desperately required.

[color=FF6E8A]Brief Backstory:[/color]
Maribel basically never knew her parents, though she knows they were adventurers who perished on a quest while she was barely a toddler, so she was taken in by the church. At first, she was raised to be a servant to the church, a sister or a nun of sorts that would devote herself to the churches of Reon and Mayon. However, when she started to exhibit a strong will to protect others, often protecting other children from larger bullies even if she came back battered, bruised and bloodied, it was decided she needed to be taught to protect herself, and eventually, when she was old enough she was inducted into the Paladin training regime to best utilize her talents.

While the Paladin training was difficult, her desire to serve Mayon as best she could would keep the girl going no matter how much her body would ache after the strict and intense training sessions, no matter how many times she was hit by wooden weapons, the burning in her arms and legs as she built up strength. It was all worth it when she reached the stage of training that she is at now; practical experience. It allowed the Paladins who had gotten this far into their training to experience the real world, their first taste at what they would be getting themselves into. It would also teach her how to work with adventurers and others in general outside of her order, a valuable experience for a situation that was sure to occur in the future. So with a letter of recommendation, she signed up to the guild of Estival.

[color=FF6E8A]Equipment:[/color]
A sword, mace, armour and shield given to her by the church.

Clothing and provisions as one might expect a young adventurer to carry, though of note for clothing is some ceremonial outfits or more fancy ball type outfits.

[color=FF6E8A]Skills:[/color]
Weapon training: As a Paladin in training, she has been training with swords and maces to best utilize her shield.

Divine Magic: While her mana fuels her magic, her magic was a blessing giving to her by the priests of Mayon, a wonderful holy magic to allow her to protect and serve in the goddess's name. Using this, she manipulates water, is given some healing abilities and other related abilities.

She also has an education in a few fields, mostly the history of the church/country and the like, but also basics like maths and reading/writing.
