Profile
The face on the billboard. The redhead smiling up from the magazine ad. She is that face you might recognize but could never put a name to in a million years.
Mary Jane Watson has lived in New York since she was a child, growing up in Queens and going to college at the city's own Empire State University. A model by trade, MJ's true passion lies in acting which she pursues in every way she can. Although yet to make it big, she has a demo reel that includes several print advertisements and even a shampoo commercial. Her more dubious claim to fame is her connection to Spider-Man, with whom she has a habit of crossing paths ...

Description
Description
A heart-shaped face, bright green eyes and dark red hair. These are what leap out when looking at Mary Jane Watson. Her hair has been gathered up in a loose braid, hanging down over her left shoulder and run through with paler highlights of blonde. The small amount of make-up she has applied smooths out what is already a clear complexion, a slight darkening around the lids of her green eyes making them pop as the first feature most people notice when looking at her. A pointed chin and full cheeks frame a toothy white smile, her entire face more accustomed to beaming grins than frowns.
On her upper body she wears a white t-shirt that only loosely fits the definition of the word. It hangs loose enough to leave one shoulder exposed, but clings tightly enough to trace the shape of her chest and the flare of her hips. Screen-printed across her chest is a red and black artist's rendering of Spider-Man's mask, worn and faded though it seems it may have been printed that way rather than through wear and tear.
History
History
Mary Jane Watson - MJ to her friends - was born in Montoursville, Pennsylvania to Philip and Madeline Watson. Her father was a teacher but never able to hold down a permanent job, prompting the family to frequently pick up stakes and move from place to place. As a result, Mary Jane became quite good at making friends and self-sufficient enough that it never bothered her too much to lose them. The trials of this vagabond lifestyle took their toll on Philip and Madeline's relationship, and before her tenth birthday MJ's parents had divorced and she had gone to live with her mother. They stayed with a number of different relatives before taking up permanent residence with MJ's Aunt Anna in Forest Hills, Queens. MJ spent her teenage years growing up in a cozy little house with a couple of nice neighbours, May and Ben Parker, and their nephew whom she always seemed to miss out on meeting.
MJ was the popular girl in high school, friends with everyone regardless of their place in the social strata even though she sat firmly at the top of it. She enjoyed drama class and dreamt of being an actress, playing a number of roles such as Juliet in Romeo and Juliet and Blanche in A Streetcar Named Desire. Shortly after she graduated high school, Madline grew sick and died. MJ resolved never to sacrifice her dreams for the sake of others and moved out of her Aunt's house, determined to make something of herself as an actress.
Personality
Personality
MJ moves to the beat of her own drum. As a child she moved frequently from place to place, never staying long enough to get to know anyone too well, so she learned to make friends quickly and easily but to always rely on herself first and foremost. No matter who she is talking to, MJ is naturally bubbly and effusive to the point that almost anyone is naturally drawn to her and she tends to make friends with the greatest of ease. But while she can turn this gregariousness on like a faucet, she can just as easily turn it off and come across as detached, cool and aloof depending on her mood. For the most part, though, MJ is the sort of person everybody wants to know. Her tastes can be eclectic and avant garde, making her more of a trendsetter than a trend follower.
Abilities
Skills
Actress
MJ majored in acting at college, and while modeling pays her bills she longs to make a go of it as a professional actress. She has studied a wide variety of acting methods and employed them at different times, at home with the Stansilavski Method, theatre games, and improvisation. She understands stagecraft well and various camera and make up techniques to a point. On top of her knowledge of the craft, she has memorised parts from a number of different plays ranging from Shakespeare to Arthur Miller. This is where her true passion lies, and it shows in the raw talent and breadth of skill she has as an actress.
Combatant
While far from a master of martial arts, MJ has taken some self-defense classes and even tried her hand at stage fighting. She has enough understanding to know how to throw a punch or deliver a kick without doing herself an injury, and knows how to throw her weight into swinging an impromptu weapon like a baseball bat or a pool cue. One on one against an unarmed, average human she stands a definite fighting chance. That said, she lacks the ability to really mix it up with the tights-and-fights crew and will probably retreat to the sidelines or, at most, risk the occasional blindside attack when her opponent isn't paying attention.
Dancer
MJ has a natural grace and poise that makes her well-suited to dancing. She took several dance classes as a small child, although her family's constant moving from place to place never let her settle down and truly hone her skills. She has picked up different moves here and there from stage performances or small television projects, and even took a few classes while in college. She is quite capable of maintaining her balance while performing complex moves, and knows how to look good while doing it.
Model
While at university and since graduation, MJ has kept a roof over her head through modeling. She has appeared on billboards here and there, glossy magazines, and posters on the subway. She has even found work as a runway model from time to time, showcasing the latest and most expensive designs for a number of New York-based designers. While it may not seem like much, MJ knows what it takes to look good on camera and exude the kind of demeanor her employers are looking for. Not to mention she is well at home at a photoshoot or fashion show, knowing all the technical terminology one needs to be a professional in that arena.
Seamstress
Resources
Career
While not a blockbuster superstar, MJ gets steady work as a model. Enough to keep a roof over her head, pay her bills, and keep her in moderately expensive clothes from time to time. She will not be flying around in her own private jet or even booking first class tickets, but she can eat out at a nice restaurant occasionally and keep relatively up to date with the latest technology without breaking the bank entirely. Of course, the downside is that all of this trades on her looks and if she fails to get a job for a few months she will quickly find herself plunging into a lower socioeconomic bracket.
Condominium
MJ has a relatively (by New York standards) spacious apartment in New York City. There's very little that is special about it save that it is a private space of her own and somewhere she can go when she needs to hide out. She managed to pay for it outright with a few lucrative modeling contracts and the savings from all her teenage and student jobs. It's no penthouse suite or Manhattan townhouse, but actually owning your home in the Greatest City in the World is nothing to sneeze at.
Minor Celebrity
MJ is not a household name. Most people who know her face don't even have a name to put to it. But her face has been seen on billboards, posters, and the sides of busses around town. On rare occasions, she can trade on her minor celebrity status to get into a club that is ?full' or a table at a restaurant that is otherwise booked solid. It doesn't always work, and people are more likely to just look at her and wonder where they know her from, but it does happen enough to be a useful arrow in her quiver.
Super-Friend
Weaknesses
Celebrity
Although not readily recognisable as a household name, MJ's celebrity status does have a darker side. From time to time, certain people see her face and become obsessed with her. While any stalkers she has had so far have been generally tame and easily scared off by restraining orders, it seems only a matter of time before one takes things too far. For someone as frequently in the public eye as MJ is, this can put her in real danger and, more importantly, the sort of danger she can't always see coming.
