Personality: Mary is nice to everyone. She smiles almost all the time, and she always remembers to use her manners, even when dealing with horrible super villains or terrorists. She has a little bit of a temper, but she always feels sorry after she's unleashed it upon anyone. When caught in hell, Mary marvels her teammates by continuing to use perfect manners. She doesn't like to even stamp her foot in anger. She's a good girl, who believes in treating others the way she would like to be treated, and in not saying anything at all if she doesn't have something nice to say. She's devoted and religious, attending church every Sunday, yet she doesn't pass judgment on anyone. She's kind and accepting of people, regardless of how they treat her. It takes something very horrible to make Mary lose her temper. Despite this, she's still able to become very violent during fights. It's not unlike her to completely decimate monsters and bad guys. She'll just be very polite while she rips their head off.
She's the good, pure girl next door, raised by a nanny in an extremely well off family. "Holey Moley" is the worst thing that passes through her lips. She cares deeply for humanity and animals alike, and hates to have to see anyone suffer for any reason. Mary fights valiantly for justice, and always wants to do more to help people. Sometimes at a loss of what she can do, she expresses mild annoyance when anyone with the ability to help others isn't doing so. She's shown to be incredibly naive and innocent about many things- she doesn't understand why people do bad things. One of her biggest flaws is her sensitivity. Mary does not take well to people being cruel to her, or to others, and she has a very hard time forgiving herself for her own mistakes. Despite all these things, she remains a strong optimist, and believes that everyone has a bit of good inside of them.
Contrary to what you might think from the above though, Mary does have a pretty big ego. Thanks to her powers, she's near invincible when she's powered up, and she knows it. She's not exactly shy about her powers in front of fellow heroes, proudly raising her hand up high when asked "Who's the strongest here?". She may seem like it at first- but Mary's not shy. Her naive personality may hold her back from always understanding people, but she loves to interact with them nonetheless. No matter who you are, where you're from, or what you've done, Mary will always want to be your friend, and Mary will always want to help you. And she's not afraid to tell people this. It's a bit of a joke that while she's graced with the Wisdom of Solomon, she doesn't always use it. She speaks her mind when she wants to- and though she will feel terrible about it afterwords, she will tell someone off if they are treating her or someone else poorly. Mary stands up for people- regardless of if they want it, or not.
Endlessly devoted, when faced with a task, Mary does not stop until the job is done. This devotion carries on over to anything else she does- unfortunately, including things like phone calls. Getting stuck on the phone with Mary is not a good thing, unless you really like baby talk and babbles about the cutest Marvel Bunny ever. She enjoys getting groups of people together to do various different activities, the simple child-like things in life, and flirting with Freddy Freeman. She also enjoys making people happy, and will do whatever the heck they want, or do not want her to do. In Mayfield, she might be mistaken as a drone for all the cookie-baking and complimenting she'll be doing.
Despite what people think from her bubbly, generous exterior personality, Mary has an extremely fragile interior. She cracks easily from mental anguish, and doesn't do well with pressure. She cries a lot, she beats herself up mentally any time she can't save someone, and she has a hard time coping with things in life. In the end, she always manages to pick herself up and move along, but there's a large part of Mary that feels as if it's her duty to protect and save everyone. Failure to do so is extremely painful to her. She's easily swayed by other people, and in the future is even tricked into becoming evil and giving up her powers. Abilities: Granted magical powers by the wizard Shazam, Mary as Mary Marvel has powers superior to Superman, and supposedly is granted the Wisdom to hold all these powers. The Wisdom part is shown to not actually be all that great. But, Mary's first power is to transform into Mary Marvel. This includes the costume, the slightly taller and significantly more muscular body, the longer hair and the unbreakable fingernails. In this form, she's invincible, bulletproof and strong enough to lift 500 tons. She can fly faster than a speeding bullet, and is granted with most generic powerhouse abilities. She's skilled in both fighting and pie-baking. Sample Entry:http://towerofanimus.dreamwidth.org/5983.html#cutid1 Please excuse the gross format, my OpenID didn't go through.
