IC INFORMATION
NAME: Marinette Dupain-Cheng | Miraculous Ladybug
AGE: 14-15
CANON: Miraculous Ladybug
CANON POINT: Just at the end of Volpina, as she's about to meet Master Fu
CANON INFORMATION: Wiki and Marinette's page
PERSONALITY: Fighting evil by moonlight, winning love by--- wait, wrong magical girl show. Ahem. Marinette is an optimistic, kind, girl in middle school with a penchant for being irrational and clumsy -- I swear this isn't Sailor Moon.
So, Marinette! As one would expect from a protagonist in a superhero genre, she has a civilian identity and a superhero identity - and naturally, she has difficulty juggling her duties as a superheroine and student. As Marinette, she's kind, absent-minded, optimistic, a natural leader, enthusiastic about fashion and always ready to lend a hand or sass if necessary. She's a naturally supportive person who tries to make the people around her happy, occasionally at her own expense. She does, however, possess several quirks: on top of being forgetful, embarrassingly clumsy and, frankly, just embarrassing at times - Marinette has a tendency to be awkward and nervous if thrown a curveball, especially if that curveball happens to be one Adrien Agreste, who she has a massive teenage crush on. Marinette becomes so nervous around Adrien that she constantly mixes up words, stammers and struggles to have a basic conversation with him. While this behavior mainly manifests with Adrien, (due to said absolutely gigantic and all-encompassing crush), it can happen in other situations where she's nervous or anxious to please whoever she's with. Additionally, as a superhero barely juggling her double life, she tends to disappear frequently or arrive late to various events and class, with barely believable explanations or none at all. Aside from complicating her own life, this tends to exasperate her parents and her best friend, and lead them to think of her as severely air-headed at times.
As Ladybug, Marinette is far more confident and comes off as much more capable. Marinette's best qualities: natural cleverness, courage, and quick-thinking really shine, and Ladybug is a staunch protector of Paris and quick to quash any wrongdoing. Despite her kindness, she's no pushover. Ladybug is very pragmatic - she understands the gravity of her position and hides her identity zealously, even if it means deceiving her loved ones. She will also defeat akuma through any practical means - whether it's using her partner's hand to smash the item it's in or a civilian's whole body. Speaking of her partner, Chat Noir - they're constantly described as being 'made for one another', which is far truer than Marinette realizes. Unbeknownst to her, her wise-cracking, flirtatious, pun-loving teammate is actually the object of her affections, Adrien. And while she pines after Adrien and struggles to string two words together around him, she, while prone to some superhero bantering and a smidge or ten of flirting, generally brushes of Chat's consistent advances and attempts to charm her. While she can sometime undermine him as a partner or ignore his sound advice, they work extremely well together. They're almost always in on the same wavelength and when given even vague instructions, he will instantly figure out what she needs from him and do it. While she is often frustrated or exasperated by him, she trusts and values him very deeply. In a webisode Marinette even admits she would consider him as a romantic partner if Adrien didn't exist, before panicking at the thought of Adrien not existing.
Both as Ladybug and as Marinette, she has a strong sense of justice, will fearlessly stand up to villains or bullies to protect others, very passionately. While Marinette tries to tone down her person feelings and act as she believes as a hero should while Ladybug, she can be reckless, quick to lose her temper, and occasionally lets her personal feelings influence her superheroing (especially when it comes to one classmate in particular who is a huge bully). She isn't a perfect hero. Marinette has a deep hatred of liars, (something that causes her to lose her temper more than once) can become very jealous, single-minded, or blindsided by Adrien, and has the tendency to sometimes be self-righteous and/or shove her foot solidly in her mouth. While she isn't a malicious character, she can be brash, blunt and, at times, she acts thoughtlessly and hurts the people around her. Marinette's quick-thinking and active imagination can quickly turn into over-thinking - occasionally, her mind goes on wildly exaggerated tangents (or ridiculous daydreams) if things aren't going her way, especially where Adrien is concerned. These ridiculous daydreams or tangents are usually followed by her panicking over unrealistic scenarios, such as Adrien moving to Hollywood with a girl he literally just met.
Prior to becoming Ladybug, Marinette was constantly bullied by That One Popular Girl Chloe Bourgeois, and her low self-esteem and horrible luck meant she previously had not stood up to her. Upon becoming Ladybug, she began slowly developing confidence and learning to stand up for herself, but in her mini-crusade to stop Chloe's bullying, she sometimes crosses the line and acts similarly. She's also guilty of some other shifty actions: stealing phones, especially to cover up a mistake she made - and letting her infatuation with Adrien encompass and blind her, whether it's accusing everyone of theft aside from him, or plastering her room with pictures of him and copying his schedule. Her Kwami, Tikki, acts as her moral compass, especially in these off moments, and, thankfully, Marinette usually realizes she's right.
That isn't to say Marinette is a bad character; just a human one. While she makes mistakes and has flaws, she is able to admit to her own mistakes, puts the wellbeing and happiness of others before herself, and regularly risks her life to save Paris. Even if she slips, or loses confidence, or loses her temper and act boorishly, in the end, she always does her best to make amends and apologizes for her wrong actions. It's important to note that Marinette always takes responsibility for her poor behavior.
On that note, even if she may act confident (and certainly, being the heroine of Paris means she's been slowly gaining some real confidence), Marinette has poor self-esteem and doubts herself regularly over the course of the series. At first, she even refuses to be Ladybug and nearly gives up several times in her first stint because she believes she'll fail. With the encouragement of Chat Noir and Tikki, she is able to push past it (to an extent), but the doubts linger throughout the first season. She's also known to be unable to say no to anyone, something that hasn't changed.
ABILITIES: Using her earrings and Tikki, her kwami, Marinette has the power to transform into the superhero, Miraculous Ladybug. As Ladybug, she's faster, stronger, more resilient, and capable of more feats, such as parkour. Her suit absorbs damage and allows her to take falls or scrapes that otherwise might be lethal. She's equipped with a magic yo-yo that functions as a weapon, a grappling hook of sorts, a communicator, a tracker, a tiny magic super computer, akuma purifier, and even a shield if she swings it quickly enough. As Ladybug, she has two special abilities related to good luck/creation:
Lucky Charm: Ladybug has the ability to manifest an item out of thin air that will help her out of any situation. Most of the times, the item is not a straightforward solution to the situation she's in, rather, Ladybug has to use creative thinking in conjunction with the item to resolve it. Also, once this power is used, Ladybug has five minutes before she's detransformed.
Miraculous Ladybug: This ability cannot be used without her first using Lucky Charm, but once she has, she's able to use this move to repair damage done to buildings or people by the akuma she fights -- restoring everything to their natural order. As Paris tends to get torn up during her fights, after she's used Lucky Charm, she tosses the item received up in the air and calls out "Miraculous Ladybug", causing a swarm of ladybugs to fly up and repair the damage and replace misplaced people and items, every episode.
As Marinette, she's a very talented fashion designer and artist. She's able to create things like hats, bags, special sunglasses, a rock album, a sticker designed to smell like sweat and rock and roll, all in a matter of hours. She wins contests, gets the attention of celebrities, and is even commissioned for her work. She's also talented at sketching and otherwise creative. Marinette is very ingenuitive, great at problem-solving, and quick-thinking.
INVENTORY: Her miraculous earrings, which allow her to turn into Ladybug. Coming along with the earrings is a magical creature called a Kwami, Tikki, who gives her her powers and acts as her advisor.
Aside from that, her clothing, her bags, a handful of cookies for Tikki, her sketchbook, her cellphone, and some sewing materials.
MEMORY ALTERATION: So Chat Noir and Ladybug are apping together, and we'll be sharing the memory alternation for both characters.
Papillon, the villain of Miraculous Ladybug, has fled Paris to his secret lair. Our heroes, Ladybug and Chat Noir, follow him through a portal that leads them to Subnautica -- but not out. They can tell from arrival that Papillon's lair is somewhere in the underwater space planet, so until they find him, they must stay in Subnautica to protect and help the people living here in any way they can -- while searching for him in the meantime.
