Basic info
Marianna came from the city to get away from the racket of the city life and play it simple. She decided to be a Mailman, or rather, Mailwoman. meeting a lot of new people, being her reason.

She's very bright though she tends to also be very forgetful. She enjoy company and but she tends to forget her manners. Whenever she speaks she has a hint of a spanish accent from the fact that she is a fluent spanish speaker, and because of this she forgets to speak english sometimes.

She loves her job but due to her forgetful tendancies she forgets how to open a mailbox you will usually find her kicking and punching mailboxes around town.

She's very interested in singing but she's too shy to do so. She also finds magic and the paranormal interesting she tends to take interest in the Wizard

First Meeting
You will wake up in the morning hearing the malicious beating of metal near your door, and you go to investigate. You will see Marianna punching your mailbox.

Mari: Open you stupid box!

She proceeds to stop and catch her breathe and sees you

Mari: *gasp* oh my I'm sorry did I scare you?

You shake your head and introduce yourself

Mari: Ah! so you're _____! Good to meet you! I was wondering who'd moved here!

You are confused as to how she know your name

Mari: *gasp* Oh! Sorry I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Marianna. I'm the town's Mail person! That's how I know your name, speaking of which here's your mail!

She smiles and hands you your mail, which you proceed to read. When you finish she will continue to speak.

Mari: I'm sorry for banging on your Mailbox but I tend to forget how to open the darn things so I get really mad, but if you ever need anything I'm usually in town hall! fue un placer conocerte!(it was nice to meet you!)

she'll wave goodbye and go off in a rush, you'll wave goodbye soon after.

Finn: She's strange but her hearts in the right place!
