{{IS_A=Character}} {{Name=Maria Antonia Fantasia Philomel}} {{Gender=Female}} {{Class=Spark}} {{Source=Comic}} {{Description=Maria from the short story [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/cgi-bin/ggmain.cgi?date=20051212 Fan Fiction]. Her real name is Mary, last name unknown; the long Maria name is her alter ego in the story, and the pseudonym she adopts when she runs away with the [[Circus]]. Agatha's biggest fan. The castle is just outside her village, so she has attached herself as a native guide. Might be a very low-grade spark herself (possibly the [[fabric spark]]?), and wants to hook up with the circus. She's borderline too young, but they are thinking about it. Note [[Lars]]' description of people who run away to join the Circus (v4, p75) -- that's Maria. Maria is actually [[Agatha]], transformed by the [[Mirror of Amagog]], which essentially tweaked reality to write her into it. Only [[Dingbot Prime]] knows about this, but there should be ample hints in this direction. For instance, [[Othar]] should perceive her as a replacement Plucky Sidekick. Question: if Maria is from the nearby town, why haven't her parents come after her? Answer: she did a pretty good job of avoiding it being a hassle for a couple of weeks, and her Mom wants her to have a brief chance to live her dreams. They're paying attention, and if it sounds like the Circus is about to leave they will come for her, but they're giving her a week or two to do something stupidly educational.}} {{Potential=Fair}} {{PotentialNotes=Probably in, but the same player as [[Agatha]], assuming that we go with the [[Agatha Transformed]] plot, so she doesn't count as a player.}} {{Plot=Agatha Transformed}} {{OldToDo=Needs a lot more meat, but seems like a good character to have. Might be the nucleus of a villager group, including the [[Spark Groupie]] and maybe the [[Fake Spark]].}}
