Character Sheet for Marika
Nickname(s)
Mari, Mascha, Maria, Piddlefox
Age
Generally in her late childhood or early Teens
Character Description
Marika is generally small in stature due to her mixed breed, although her big ears do make her seem taller than she is. Her furcoat has the classic make of a redfox full with brown furred "gloves" and "socks", orange/red fur over most of her body with a white section that starts from the front of her face just under her eyes, down her throat, breast, belly, crotch and butt and then goes down the back of her thighs until midway to the bend of her knees. Her Tailtip and the underside of the base of her tail are also white.
She has a full fluffy tail which is slightly longer and nearly as wide as her torso if she were to raise it high against her back.
Marika has long blonde (somewhere between sandy and honey blonde) hair which she either keeps it loose or binds it up in twintails, though as an adult she may also bind it in a more professional pony tail.
If drawn with pawpads, they are darkbrown/black in colour except for one pink bean on both her left hand and right foot,
Personality
Generally friendly and easy going towards other people, somewhat of a naive, bubbly happy personality at times but being a fox, she also has the tendency to have a mischievous calculating and sneaky streak if she puts her mind to it.
Does not like harming other people and would generally run from a fight but if put in a corner will use underhanded tricks like kneeing people in the crotch, biting and scratching since her small size doesnt give her a lot of strength.
While she understands the concept of decency and property she likes flaunting and skirting around just within (or beyond) the rules though she generally keeps it within the bounds of the law. There are certain rules or laws she thinks are stupid/hateful and will openly complain about if brought to attention (curfews/anti-dumpster diving/anti-homeless laws). She hates wasting food, littering and people just being assholes to the environment or other people.

Background/History
Marika is the first of two daughters of a Russian Oligarch (Tamed/Domesticated Redfox) and his Trophy wife, a Model from the United Arab Emirates (Fennec). Due to shady business dealings he fled the then failing UDSSR (Soviet Union) back when Marika was only a year old, but was caught by the authorities. Her mother was deported back but did not accept Marika or her sister whom were placed into the orphanage system and eventually sent to different places. Marika grew up without the knowledge of a family but in the somewhat safe confines of an Orphanage with various stints in foster families which didn't work out due to her dislike of constricting rules and mischievous behaviour or just bad family situations. Sometime after her 11th birthday Marika due to disliking the system of the orphanage, her getting bullied/picked on in the orphanage due to her small stature and being sent off to families who really didnt care for her in the first place ran away managed to sneak on a train to a big metropole and lived rough for a good two years. Thankfully due to her young age, people generally caught her slack/looked out for her on the streets, she managed to live with various squatting communities/homeless camps, managed to get along with a adolescent part-timer of a big grocery store who let her "steal" the food he had to throw out at the end of the day anyway after catching her dumpster diving once. These years also showed her some of the adult sides of life, both the sexual kind and the corrupt/criminal kind, but due to a mix of good luck, a few good souls in the homeless community and her picking up/imitating other peoples street-smarts she managed these short years on the road without violence done to her or getting caught up in deep crime.
After the latest police break-up of the homeless camp she last stayed at she was trying to find a place to rest in the evening. Getting caught by a resident of a small mobile home property after she tried to break into his toolshed for a safe/dry place to sleep in late autumn, she was thankfully pitied by the man in his mid 40s, who let her sleep, bathe and stay in his house and who gave her some of the old clothes of his daughter. Since she didn't betray his trust by stealing his stuff and sneaking out during the first night he made a deal with her that she could return in the evenings for a safe place to rest and free food which eventually turned into letting her stay in his home even when he was going to work. Since he gave her the freedom to roam she craved for but the stability, education and shelter she needed it then turned into a semi-sexual, semi-father/daughter relationship where he adopted her and put her back on her feet, enrolling her back in school and giving her a good life while she repaid him with good grades at school, being a housekeeper and his sexual partner. Even having her own place as an adult she often visits and spends time with her old man.
