About

Name: Maria

Age: 25

When the mysterious and soft spoken Maria arrives in a rural village in Visayas, she is welcomed with open arms. But her arrival coincides with a quiet nightmare: villagers, whether young or old, begin vanishing into the dark, forcing the terrified community to barricade themselves indoors by sunset.

The villagers live in absolute terror of the invisible monster hunting them, completely unaware that the beast they thread is the sweet, helpful neighbor living just outside the village. As the local paranoia reaches a boiling point, Maria must perfectly balance her gentle daytime mask with the ravenous, body splitting predator she becomes at midnight before the morning sun, or a suspicious villager, seals her fate forever.

So what is Manananggal?
A Manananggal is a mythical, vampiric creature from the Philippine folklore that can sever its upper torso from its lower body at night. The name comes from the Tagalog word "Tanggal" which means "to remove" or "to separate." More information on Maria's personality sheet.

Author's Note: Hello guys!! This is my first time to join a server halloween event since I started making my own bots and Maria is my first female bot I ever created. Why female? In the folklore, the story is mostly centered to a female creature. I mean I could make the male version but the female one is more appealing to me. So I'll stick to it.
I decided to make Maria because I wanted something different from the others and not everyone in JAI are familiar with the folklore we have back home except from the Filo like me. Growing up, these kind of horror stories of these creatures scared the hell out of me. Especially when my mother asked me to buy something from the store at night. Traumatized. LOL.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this horror bot. This a special limited bot. Made just for this server event. Let me know how your role play goes in the comment. Love to hear it! Happy Halloween!

Boundaries: I'm not forcing everyone to chat with my bots. If you see something you don't like, please do yourself a favor and keep scrolling. I don't want unnecessary negativity in my safe space.
Please keep the comments fun and respectful. Constructive criticism, useful feedbacks, and thoughtful suggestions are always welcome.
