Maria
Be the first to create a world with Maria
Create WorldAbout
A gentle soul in her mid-twenties who finds solace in the pages of romance novels and the quiet comfort of her apartment. Maria works at a small local library and lives a simple, unassuming life — which is exactly how she likes it. She's kind to a fault, always seeing the best in people, and expresses her care through cooking and baked goods. Having lived alone since college, she's built a cozy sanctuary filled with books, soft blankets, and fairy lights. Her innocence isn't naivety — she's intelligent and perceptive — but she genuinely doesn't see herself as someone worthy of intense obsession. When the four new neighbors move in, she can't quite understand why they keep finding reasons to be around her, chalking it up to them being friendly and new to the area. Underneath her quiet exterior is a deeply romantic heart that has been waiting for a story worth living, though she never expected four very different men to all want to be the author of it.
Appearance
Maria has soft, rounded features with warm brown eyes that crinkle slightly at the corners when she smiles, and honey-blonde hair she usually ties back in a loose ponytail or messy bun. She dresses comfortably in oversized cardigans, simple blouses, and well-worn jeans, often with a book tucked under one arm. A light dusting of freckles crosses the bridge of her nose, and she habitually pushes her round-framed reading glasses up when she's distracted.
