Description

Mariana second home. The School of Sword and Mastery.

The place where she trains or teaches the way of the Sword Dancers.
Mary is what everyone calls the woman of many skills that uses the likes of the sword and light attack magic. When she not on one of mission with her father and sister, or even on one of her own epic adventure. She normally leaves her Estate in Bree to train here at the School. Her training consists of the following classes.

Primary: Sword Dancer. *A Women only based fighting class. Even though there have been accounts of a small number of males learning this form of Combat Art. Rarely seen, be there has been accounts.*

Her Secondary classes: Fighter, Sword Barer *User of heavier type Swords.*, Crossbreed Duelist. *Taking the Duelist training skill and converting it with her Sword Dancing form. Which makes her close to unbeatable.*
Mariana magic type of skills is what would be called a Spell Dancer. The same type of caster training that Lydia herself went under. These light attack skills does give Mariana a much higher edge to win in any of her fights. It doesn’t matter it is against an Army of hundreds or a single duel. This is only a minor skill that Mariana trained under at the Libairum Majicak. *The Library of Magic. Or the School of Magic.* This training helps her in many battles in life and death.

Outside the boundary of greats kingdoms.

Mary has been known by many names. But, the most common name that she known under at the School of Sword is the "The Sword Goddess." The reason why she has taken to this name is her fierce way of fighting her foes or in the likes of training new Swordsisters. The Sword Dancers are known for a few of their flaws. But she has taken those flaws and converted them with her other fighting classes she has learned under. Mariana has never lost in any battles or duels. She has come close, but never lost. The unbeatable or the undefeated woman who's sword and Maim has taken their fair share of fights.
In the Kingdom of Vale.

She is also known by the Valeian Kingdom as the "Bitch of Kalum". One of the most fiercest battles in Murbusiana History and during that time of 1748 MY or 2041CE Earth Year. The Celtic Federation join the help of the Elven Kingdoms of Dinnamore, Whitekeep, and the Plains of Ar. While Mariana father Joshua and her twin sister Lydia where in battle against the Valeian Army at Ar’shel. Mariana will face one of best sword fighter of all of Vale. SwordMaster Marus Shellborne. The Knight of Valenar.
At an ancient elven ruin, once called Kalum. The two would face each other in one of finest swords fights ever seen. Calashar the Dark Elf Rogue secretly join Mariana in this fight. In the Dark Elf eyes, she seen the finest Sword Dancer stepping up against a knight.

This fight would end quickly. Marus faced Mariana in one of his shortest and possibility his close to life ending battle against a woman. She spared him, but leaving him a costly mark. The lost of his left eye. A message to the King of Vale.
Marus lost the battle do to the shear speed and strength of this woman. Close to unhuman like as he would tell his story to the King of Vale. Never would he ever see such power from a woman own sword.

The Little Rumors that Floats around the School.

A year passed and a Rumor starts floating around the School of Sword while Mariana was out on her own little quest.

"In order to win Mariana heart, you must beat her in a duel."

Too late for her to do anything about this mess of so called “High School like drama” as she puts it. So from that day forth. Men have tried and none succeeded. Only... Well, what was left of their own pride? The only man that continues to try is Sir Chrisoff Talespanner. A Paladin of Light who is well. Not all there. Always picking fight with the wrong people who are trying to do good. Like her father, the CFA Royal's and pretty much anyone. He just really confused Paladin.

He just keeps trying.

What she actually carries.

2 Matabe .45 Cal Pistols in her Weapons pouch Type II

Dark Sword. *Originally Call Zarus. An unknown sword that Mariana took into her own collection of a Black Knight of Kartuis, a last chance weapon for them bigger battles. Magic Unknown.*

Breaker and StarDust *Two long swords Breaker is a sword with Kein and Sharpness, StarDust is an ice weapon. These swords are her secondary when Stormbringer and Stormchaser isn't enough in a large scale fight.*

Stormbringer the Rapier *A weapon she found in her first battle against a Troll. Actually her very first battle that almost killed her. Swordbringer has the same build and design as the Goddess of Light Rapier. Uses lighting and Energy type magic. Still much is locked away in this sword."

Stormchaser the Maim Ghush. *Mary secondary, given by her friend the Princess of Kuludum, Aludra. The Sanddancer and her best friend. Chaser uses wind and water based magic. These two weapons combine are the most powerful combination. Which work will together as though they belong together.*

Mariana famous battle cry's.

Mariana has quite a few. Her cockiness get's her into trouble with that mouth of hers.

One she always use.

"I am the daughter of Joshua! The 7 sword of the 7 Swords of the School of Sword! Sister to Lydia! One of the Sisters to the Sisterhood of the Steel Rose! YOU WANT ME!! COME ON! I'll show you want a real fight is!"

The common lighter taunts.

"You want me. Step up and let’s dance."
Allies and Foes

Mary has many friends. The Steel roses, The School of Sword, King Calastand and King Valus of Dinnamore. Too many to list.

But she does have her fair share of enemy to. Vale is one.

Bounty for her head. DEAD OR ALIVE! The Kings own Ransom.

A king ransom for Mary. Like her father. Mariana is a well wanted woman in the Valeian Kingdom. Mariana has done her own fair share of damage to the Valeian Kingdom. The Stop of Slave matches and the slaughter of innocent people too even the battle at the Gates of the Wolves. Mariana has put a large dent into King Valerus plans.
