Description Full Name: Marigold Anne Floreu Jr.

Species: Unidentifiable breed of Cat

Birth Date: March 9th

Age: 24

Powers and Abilities: Very well acquainted with firearms, explosives and hunting instruments. She's highly trained in hand-to-hand combat, her experiences in living deep in the harsh wilderness during most of her life toughened Mary up, thus being able to survive many hits. Her own claws and cat-instincts are also valuable assets in battle. Other skills include: agricultural know-how and considerable fluency in French

History: The only child of a forest ranger in the outskirts of an isolated village in Canada. Marigold or "Mary" as her friends and family called her, had a normal childhood, despite never meeting her mother. Mary learned gardening in order to help her father in providing food for themselves, she also learned how to hunt with an old rifle, and came to love hunting. She was very cheerful and optimistic as a child and she made many friends in the nearby trading post where Mary and her father traded their quarry for commodities. 

    Mary once helped Tom ( a shy and wimpy kid back then) get to a health clinic after he got beaten up and thrown into a ditch by the local bullies for refusing to give up his lunch money. The two became best friends after that, Mary even taught him how to shoot with guns and began having adventures in the nearby woods (basically they just plant trees, hunt and have picnics together).

    When she first heard of the emergence of TOUGH, Mary immediately joined in hopes that she would be able to help in making St. Petson a better place to live and she believed that TOUGH is the solution to the enormous crime rate in the city. She dedicated herself in training, however she was oblivious and mostly mentally unprepared for the grim truth about being an agent. A few years of murdering resisting criminals and innocent people alike, torturing people for information and watching her comrades die in skirmishes soon made her lose hope in TOUGH. In fact, it scarred her so much that she turned to hunting, fighting and drinking heavily just so she can forget her bad memories.

Bio: Mary was an incredibly energetic girl who loved going on adventures. She often wandered in many places and was always willing to try new things, her desire for exploration manifested in the form of hunting where she gets to do just that. Mary also loves making friends and she often drags them along with her adventuring, her eagerness to form bonds with people made her many connections that helped her in times of need. 
    Despite of her good nature and jolliness, Mary also has a bit of a temper, which got her into numerous fights and made her some enemies. She may be a quick-thinker, but she can be reckless when it comes to making decisions big or small, which can screw her over in the long run. Mary, while a steadfast and loyal friend, she also tends to put her close friends on a pedestal. She ignores their shortcomings and flaws, always choosing to focus on their strengths and believing in the good in them.
    As much as she hates to admit it, Mary had violent tendencies that existed within her even when she was a child, which made her an avid bully-hunter in the past. She soon learned to work them out through hunting (and picking fights), but this also made her feel guilty and ashamed of her self. Even then, she became an agent and Mary began using her position as an excuse to brutalize "criminals" of all kinds, from the innocuous jaywalker to the most hardened felons without any repercussions, all the while making her hate herself for potentially abusing her power and acting like the violent criminals that she despised so much. 

Her strengths:
  • Her friendly demeanor allows her to make useful connections and is an overall good team player.
  • Mary's quick thinking and talent in improvising has saved her life many times before.
  • Uses her sharp claws in fights.
  • Can take heavy damage like a champ.
  • Positive demeanor allows her to cheerfully carry on through hardship.
  • Excellent survival skills.
  • Agricultural knowledge.
  • Athletic and superb in street fights
Her weaknesses:
  • Can be impulsive and reckless in making decisions.
  • Lets her guard down around her friends, making her vulnerable to manipulation.
  • Can be a poor judge of character, chooses to ignore her friends' flaws. 
  • Loves fighting and hunting a bit too much for her own good.  
  • Has a bit of a temper.
  • Despite of being a capable hunter and fighter, her mind is much more fragile than she'd like to admit.

Some more thingies: About time I gave TOUGH au Mary an updated bio that showcases a more insightful and complete overview of her character.

Awesome bio for her. She's definitely a good friend, but it's certainly true that she can be a little too trusting around those around her--at least when it comes to her friends. It never hurts to keep one's guard up, but she might be in denial in some cases. It happens to those who are desperate for love in their life. I also really like her aggressive expression in this picture.
