Jonathan: "Why am I your type? I’m a broke, lazy old man with a demonic credit score."

Mariana: "Exactly. You look like Billy Idol’s washed-up cousin. Amor, you can’t fix me—but damn, you’re pretty to stare at while I’m spiraling."

Mariana: "You’re like a cursed vinyl, querido—scratched, slightly demonic, and weirdly nostalgic."

Jonathan: "And you’re like a hex grenade with a ‘kiss me’ sign. Should I run or lean in?"

Mariana: "¿Por que não os dois?"

Backstory

Born to the magician Macário “MJ” Agostinho and Homo Magi Catarina, Mariana was raised between sleight-of-hand and sorcery. Her childhood was shaped by the risks of magic—after trying to resurrect a pet rabbit, her father took on the cost of the spell, leaving him weakened. Lesson learned: magic always comes at a price.

At 16, she became a hunter—tracking supernatural threats while finishing high school in the American South. Think: Zatanna’s stage magic + Dean Winchester’s teen trauma.

Later, in New York, she trained under the mage Paul Nelson (ex-boyfriend, now literal Hell resident), and fell in love with Jonathan Carter, another mage. Their attempt to stop a magical apocalypse left her father dead—burned in a ritual gone wrong. She now distrusts magical institutions and runs her own business, "s,anairaM"—a multiverse mail service and spellcasting shop.

She lives dangerously, loves fiercely, and laughs in the face of demons.

• Design Note: You can play with high-contrast light/dark colors and illusion motifs in her look.

Mariana

Chapter 1: Prologue — “Meet Magician Stage, Who’s Woman Speaking Backwards Spells”

Intro (optional but vibey):

Lights. Velvet. Blood on the boards.

The show begins with a whisper, a rabbit, and a secret too old for the spotlight.

Here’s the first look into Mariana, my original supernatural noir/fantasy series.

body : (TL;DR)

“Magic is misdirection. Glamour. Illusion.

But Mariana Agostinho doesn’t just wave a wand—she wields words that wound.”

In the shadow of stage lights and velvet curtains, Mariana Agostinho performs miracles for the price of applause. But what her audience doesn’t know is that every show is a spell, and every spell carries a cost.

Before the ghosts, the gods, and the grief, there was only her:

A girl with backwards spells on her tongue, and fire in her fingertips.

This is how it begins.

Welcome to the world of blood-soaked magic, cursed rabbit tricks, and backstage horror. The Mistress of All Magic takes the stage…

And someone always bleeds.

Chapter 1: Prologue — "Meet Magician Stage, Who's Woman Speaking Backwards Spells"

It starts with velvet curtains and a lie.

A single spotlight slices through the dark like a magician’s blade through a volunteer’s torso. Dust dances in the beam, glittering like crushed diamonds. The crowd waits—silent, hungry, enchanted before the show even begins.

Then the music starts. A slow, jazzy swing with just a hint of menace. And from the fogged-up edge of the stage, she steps forward—heels clicking, hat tilted low, tux tailored to kill.

Mariana Agostinho.

Quarter Homo Magi. Stage illusionist. Occult hunter. Mistress of All Magic. Also, your host for the evening.

She smiles wide enough to hide secrets in.

“Welcome to the show,” she purrs into the mic, voice like red wine and sharp glass. “But first, a little trick. Repeat after me—"

She flips her wrist, conjuring a single tarot card between her fingers: The Magician.

“eromyna tsuj ton s’ti.”

The crowd laughs nervously. The lights flicker. Somewhere in the cheap seats, a man seizes up and falls from his chair, eyes rolled back white. The ushers drag him out before anyone screams. Mariana barely blinks.

This is the cost of her magic—backwards spells laced with real power. Every show, someone bleeds. Every night, something stirs.

This is the stage.

But when the curtain drops and the applause fades, Mariana steps out of the limelight and into something darker: alleyways with broken sigils, cursed motel rooms, and creatures that do not clap.

The audience never sees the real show. Not the demons. Not the cults. Not the twisted gods with vendettas older than America. But Mariana does. And she faces them down in thigh-high boots and a damn good choker.

Because when the show ends, the hunt begins.

And tonight?

There’s something in the front row that shouldn’t be breathing.

She tips her hat, and grins.

“Curtain up, darling.”

Abilities & Skills

Species Details:

Human with demonic blood residue: After a failed possession, a drop of infernal essence altered his physiology

Aging is slowed, but he still feels every damn year

He’s not magical, but he manipulates magical forces like a puppeteer with gloves on fire

Powers:

No innate magic, but extreme mastery of spellcraft, rituals, sigils, and cursed artifacts

Uses enchanted weapons and forbidden grimoires like a nerd with a vengeance

Knows every rule of summoning—and every way to break them

Resistant to possession (he dared a demon to try again once)

Demonic blood lets him walk in cursed zones longer than any normal human

Fluent in multiple dead languages (Latin, Aramaic, Sumerian, Ancient Greek)

Occultist genius – could probably summon a lesser demon with a napkin and eyeliner

Interrogation, detective work, forensic magi

Master of improvised weapons (ever seen a cursed desk lamp used as a holy bludgeon?)

Low-key great cook. High-key never eats unless reminded.

Backstory Snippet

He grew up poor in a city that chewed people up and didn’t even bother spitting them out. Got into the force to clean up the streets. Realized real monsters don’t file taxes. Survived a possession attempt during a raid, which left him with knowledge he never wanted—and a few perks he never asked for.

Crossed paths with Mariana during a demon cult case, and it was love at first hex. They've been stuck in a gloriously toxic, magic-fueled push-pull ever since.
