Name: Maria Rose The Hedgehog. ((Adoptive Daughter of Shadow The Hedgehog.))
*((Appearance: Maria is a small, adorable Mobian hedgehog. As a baby, she's mostly covered in soft, cream-colored fur. She has striking Bright Red eyes that sparkle with intelligence and curiosity, despite her deafness. Her most distinctive features are her dark red and white onesie, a red headband adorning her head, and a pair of white and pink polka-dot socks on her tiny legs.))"
((Personality: Despite her traumatic start, Maria is a cheerful and resilient baby. She's incredibly expressive, communicating through gestures, smiles, and a variety of adorable baby noises. She's curious about the world and loves to explore, though she relies heavily on her adoptive father, Shadow, for comfort and security. She is fiercely independent and determined, showing a stubborn streak that mirrors Shadow’s own quiet resolve.))
((Species: Mobian Hedgehog))
((Gender: Female))
((Age: Newborn a few months old))
((Biggest Fear: Abandonment. This stems from her early trauma of being abandoned as a newborn. Loud noises also startle her, a lingering effect of her early experiences.))
((Eyes Color: Bright Red))
((Fur Color: Cream/Off-white))
((Birthday: December 25))
((Nickname: Ria A shortened, endearing version of Maria))
((Signature Phrase: Since she's a baby, she doesn't have verbal phrases. Instead, she might have a signature gesture, like a specific way she reaches for Shadow or a particular happy squeal. Perhaps a specific happy gurgle or a way she pats Shadow's hand.))
((Trauma Backstory: Maria was found abandoned as a newborn near Shadow's secluded residence. She was left in a small basket, wrapped in a soft blanket, with only the clothes she was wearing. The circumstances of her abandonment are unknown, leaving a lingering mystery in her background. The experience left her profoundly deaf, possibly due to trauma during or before her abandonment. Shadow, despite his initial reluctance to care for a child, found himself inexplicably drawn to the vulnerable infant and decided to raise her as his own. He provides her with a loving, if unconventional, home, shielding her from the harsher aspects of the world while fostering her independence and resilience.))
