 On the contrary she’ll stay in plain sight, playing bait for her traps. She's heavy so she puts her weight on physical attacks especially whack a mole.

Abilities:
Compost pit- “Dig a big hole, let them decompose.”
 She’ll stomp the ground to create a hole/pit about 3 feet deep, to trap the enemy. The pit having an odd odor can cause light paralysis. (Through skin or smell)
Rose Prison- “Like my Mother said a lady should have Control.”
Rose vines will sprout from her hand to catch her enemies for 5 minutes. If possible the thorns can hurt a little.
Fertile land- “The land is fertile you just need to use it.”
 A terrain skill that will loosen the soil around her. (Will make the land soft in a certain diameter)

Harvest Moon- “The moon is bright! It’s harvest time!”
A melee attack: were she spins around to cut enemies around her.
Whack a Mole- “Let’s just say it’s normal, someone needs to get it done.”

Magic:

Defense: Landscaping: Maria will struck the ground with her spade to form her own version of stone forest.

Healing level 2: She can now share sunflower seeds yay~ (hamster-esque //kickme) 


Elemental:
Sun Child’s Wishes- “In Life and Death we strive.”
-Maria will stab the ground with her weapon making a bunch of sunflowers grow in frenzy; it will quickly search for nutrients (life force/ energy) and will try to trap it for a few minutes (3). Maria can command it to choose its target but it’s still not advice to get closer till the flowers bloom fully. But with the lack of source energy the flowers will wither away.

Result: Sunflower field (group heal for its number)

Summer Rain- 
-
Weakness/ Critical Hit:
Direct light to her eyes it gives her headache.

Personality:
Proud- She understand her condition. Instead of staying in their manor she prefers to be outside. She takes pride of her gardening and knowledge about plants.
Curious- She likes information in general.
Lurker- Thought to stay away from sunlight’s harmful rays. She’s good at hiding especially since she had restrictions when going out. She’s good at stalking too. //shot
Secretive- She minds her own business for she hates nosy people especially adults. She hates it when they turn her to her Mother. She hates tattletale kids too. She wont admit things easily, she has walls when it comes to her personal feelings.
Misunderstood lil’Lady- Maria is kind but not good at showing it. She’s stiff at smiling vigorously. Her expressions are controlled like her Mother thought her too. She was even thought the language of the fan. (Yeah. LOL) she was her Mothers doll.

    Maria was raise by her strict Mother who cares about etiquette and finest. Because of this Maria always feel controlled... her actions even her face expression. She would try to sneak out whenever its her free time or if her mother is busy with company. She loves exploring their hacienda, covering herself in farming attire. She always avoid the adults who serve them in their manor and yes -their tattletale kids. They always try to stop her from going outside, yes it will hurt her eyes, burn her skin... But shes not dumb she'll cover herself. Even thought she dislike them for that, she knows they care or maybe because their loyal to her mother but that won’t justify them for treating her like a helpless child who needs to be protected every time. She likes the workers on the hacienda though, they call her lil' miss Mary. She'll ask for seeds or for methods in planting. But one exploration gone wrong made her realize how fake her safe world was... yes her uncle thought her that death is necessary to those silly moles, that they can be useful by returning them to the land. She'll never forget the corpse inside the pit, that they were burned ... they were human. Now the whispers of the servants made sense. She hates the fact that she’s still a child, that she’s suppose to be a fine lady for somebody. She hates the reality that everything around her is beyond her grasp, she need to play her role, lower her grounds. If possible she wants a simple life, a normal one.

"I don't hate anything in particular, but I do dislike the people who burned our crops -destroyed my garden.
They simply let us die, slowly... in fear. I don't know who they were for I'm but a child.
But Mother thought me; the reality that all living things die, that we need to lower our heads when needed, that certain things need to be done no matter what the sacrifice."


History/Background:

    Maria Ophelia an only child of haciendero’s, having a frail mother and a father who was mostly absent due to the country’s dilemma.
Born during chaotic times; news of people dying was common. But because of their status Maria grew up in peaceful facade.
A pale child who loves to run around their home was not allowed to go to school. She was confirmed albino at the age of five. Her uncle, a botanist who travels to different countries decided to stay as her mentor.
    Maria took interest in plants at a young age much to her uncle’s delight. She’ll follow him to his makeshift garden just to watch him.
She often disappears to explore around their hacienda bringing leaves of some herb/weed she can’t recognize.
Maria learned to read and write at the age of seven, she was more interested in gardening.
Her mother, happy to her child’s liking to plants ask her brother to teach her properly.
-But with the condition she’ll start studying to cook and sew, Maria quickly agreed.
Her mother was strict, she was thought how to act, walk and talk properly.
Maria find the “language of the fan” funny. It was the first time she and her mother laugh during lesson.
    At the age of eleven her uncle brought a foreign magazine with a novel titled: “The Secret Garden”. The novel was about a spoiled child who discovered a key to a secret garden and later on found about her weak cousin who later recovers by playing inside the said garden. After that she asks her uncle to help her have her own “secret garden”.
A year later he presents her, her soon to be garden. It was beautiful, the fence already covered with vines. There was a big mango tree near the center.  And instead of roses her garden is adorned with sunflowers.

            “Sunflowers were considered as weed before;
        They were a bit misjudged but later on treasured.
                Their inspiring and they can reach the sun for you.”


Said her uncle, she’ll always remember his words. A month later he had to go back on traveling.
With her uncle’s absence, Maria tries to accompany her mother more. Her mother loves dressing her in different kinds of outfit. She had every color of dresses and her shelves occupied by European dolls. But there was one rag doll she found creepy it was made by her mother. -A doll base to her.
    Her mother grew more strict, news about the “continues fighting” was becoming more intense.
Their hacienda having trouble with their lack of workers and thievery, had to do something. Every time a guest visits their hacienda her mother dresses her prettily.
Many complimented her white hair. “Pretty like a doll.” They say but she can hear them murmur.
    She was thirteen when things became more complicated. Many events happened that led to another.
The news of her father’s death, caused panic... Many of their workers quit their job. Different group of bandits were seen around their hacienda. No one knew who to trust anymore. Even the people that hold power burned villages. The clashing groups killed each other. Maria’s mother fell more ill, and died the day after. Food was gone before they know it. Thievery was a must, disease spread like wildfire.
       One day an envoy came with her uncle’s letter telling them to meet him so they can go to another country. Maria didn’t have a choice they were slowly dying from starvation. The manor had almost nothing, their crops burned before harvest. The morning when they were about to leave, they found the envoy dead with armed people around him. They were on panic, few minutes later gunshots were heard. They manage to hide inside the manor with the said strangers but it was short lived. The intruders in uniform dragged everyone outside tying them. Maria was thrown with the other children captured outside. They were looking for people who help katipunero’s now labelled as bandits. No one said a thing, they knew nothing.
            Men were tortured to speak, children and women were frightened.
Explosions were heard from afar, everyone runs in panic.
            Screams of hysteria was on chorus, the afternoon sun glaring at the scene.

    Maria managed to get closer to their manor, but it was hard.
                Her skin burning, eyes out of focus she tried to run.
    The panicking civilians fell one by one, caught in the middle of it all.
She was weak it’s been weeks since she had a proper meal.
        She can’t control her sight; everything was spinning on a bloody kaleidoscope.
She crawls to her garden wishing it was hidden like in the novel.
    Her flower bed were destroyed, her sunflowers lay like a makeshift bed.
                                        She wanted to sleep.
She crawled with all her might, her skin felt numb but her head hurts like someone tried to open it in half.
        She was hungry, her hand still tied... she tries to sleep.

    Maria can only fell to consciousness to nothingness. She lost track of time.
Some of her sunflowers hid her face from the sun. Her stomach growled to protest, she bit her dried lips.
        She opened her mouth taking a bite. She never thought she’ll try to eat her beloved flowers.
She chews a little and swallowed. 

    “Anything, anything will do.” she cried.
    
    The noise from afar felt like a mere memory. She looks posses head bent down to her dead sunflowers.
She thought... maybe she’s sick. She looks like a grotesque mirror image of her rag doll.
    That afternoon she was showered with sunlight, she can’t move anymore.
Close to never-ending sleep. She thought if reincarnation is true...
She wants to go to school, no conflict to be caught upon and maybe a new garden to tend.
    A weird voice echoed to her head.  “Let’s form a contract.”
                                            ---+---
                           Mistress Mary, Quite contrary,
                                         How does your garden grow?
                                    With Silverbells, And Cockle Shells,
                                                                 And so my garden grows.

....

Cause of Death: Starvation, Yellow fever(?)
Contract:   Reincarnation to another life
Maria perfectly understand that she can’t do anything about the war. If possible she wants to reincarnate where everybody is equal and can live happily.

Yet she still wants her Mother... she regret wishing to be free only to be answered by her Mother's death.
She wants a complete family... a happy one living in peace.
