Biography

One of the smartest members of the Dragon Clan, Mary’s knowledge and study of a variety of techniques qualifies her as the young forest dojo’s #2 Student. She’s also the only Dragon clan member skilled enough to spar with Jalen spear/Tiger Style. Jalen and Mary are frequent sparing partners and have become close friends. As a teenager, Mary was an accomplished dancer, but also took up martial arts as a means of protection during frequent trips to the downtown ballet studio where she trained. As a college student she has transitioned fully into the martial arts, partially as a means of keeping her hot tempered half sister Jordan/Cheetah Style out of trouble.

In addition to great flexibility and balance, Mary is also fantastic jumper. Her jumping ability is second only to the frog style. A defensive specialist, her knowledge of different Fighting styles allows her to defend against almost any technique. The Freeman sisters have separately tangled with Lin/Snake Venom on previous occasions, with Mary claiming the most recent victory (Urban Shogun Character Guide, 2011).
