Sister Maria is the latest of a line of women dedicated to the service of the Goddess of Mercy.  She was born in Newhaven, and took over the town [[Newhaven temple|temple]] a few years ago, shortly before her mother passed away.  She appears content with her life, and puts no effort into changing the status quo.

Maria's faith, and the power of her patron goddess, run __strong__ within her.  The divine power she wields is strong, both for healing and protection: the light of the Temple Crystal is **true** Jewel Light.  Just keep in mind hers is the goddess of //Mercy//, not Healing, or the Nurturing Earth Mother.  If you've been ripped nearly in half by an enraged boar, your two options are //Final Rest// (peacefully go on to the afterlife), and //Last Day// (You get 24 hours of normal function to get your affairs in order).

Most days of the week Maria can be found teaching the children of Newhaven the basics of reading, writing, and number, either in the temple, or at the [[Old Theater Ruins]] when the weather is nice.  Her usual companions are her assistant [[Iop]], acolyte of the Herd God, and [[Gephart]] a Shoushou possessed short bow.
