Character Description: Maria Tachibana
Cool and reserved, Maria was born in Russia and fought during the chaos of the Russian Revolution, where her ferocity on the fiery battlefield earned her the nickname "Kazuar." After leaving Russia, Maria fell in with the New York Mafia, where Major Ayame Fujieda met her, and then brought her back to Japan to join the Flower Division. A brilliant strategist and fighter, Maria served as the first Captain of the Flower Division. Maria, however, felt that she would be better suited to assist a commander and help make strategic decisions, and requested Ayame bring in someone who would be better suited to unite and organize the Flower Division in to a more cohesive unit.
A talented actress on stage, Maria is said to look absolutely dashing in men's attire, and can commonly be found portraying the charming Prince in the various productions that the Flower Division puts on. Maria is also renowned for her marksmanship abilities, and her weapon of choice is an Enfield Mk.1 Star Revolver. Maria is also a talented Koubu operator, and serves as Lt. Ohgami's second in command on the battlefield.
