( THE BASICS )
Name: Jaina
Canon: Assassin's Creed
Character's (approximate) age: 30
Character's powers: Shapeshifting, general toughness
Is your character registered/will they be?: Registered
Where does your character live?: Heropa, Residence #020
Are you looking for roommates?: Not now
What is your character's job?: Police dispatch

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Maria is a would-be knight and personal steward of the recently dead Grandmaster of the Knights Templar during the Third Crusade. (Think Robin Hood.) So she's got a soldier's mindset from a time when this was a huge aberration for women, and also she's hella behind technologically, so...there is a LOT she doesn't understand and she's very cranky about it, but she's not unpleasant beyond that. She's still trying to find herself, and possibly a new purpose here.
What are your character's plans?: Learn what the hell this modern world is all about because she has no effing idea.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Naw
Is your character open for pairings?: She was married once and thinks she's 100% over that so she's not looking for that, but OOCly yeah sure.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Absolutely.
Is your character interested in teams?: She's really not sure about this superhero thing yet but she's open in the sense that she can work well with others.
What kind of plots are you after?: ALL KINDS but stuff that fits with a character who is definitely not throwing her lot into things enthusiastically would work best. Like, she's not stubbornly trying to find a way home because she can see perfectly well that she's not capable of getting herself there, but she wears her skeptical hat a lot. Maria is also the exact opposite of modern and still baffled by much of what she sees, so learning to understand and cope are priorities right now.
Anything else?: The communicators are basically witchcraft to her so for a little while I'm focusing on in-person interactions since it's hard for someone from the Middle Ages to take to smartphones.

tl;dr super-old fashioned semi-knight woman is new as hell and open to all kindsa things
