The daughter of a very wealthy and respected family, Maryann grew up as a friend of Francis Harcourt. He sees her as his very important childhood friend, but Maryann wants more. She is very posessive of Francis, and is upset at the relationship he seems to have with Nadja. While not nearly as menacing a threat as Herman or Rosso and Bianco, Maryann does make some trouble for Nadja's love life. (Taken from "www.niko-niko.net")
