Maybelle (メイベル) is the mayor of City of Bose and the owner of the local Anterose Restaurant.
Profile[]
Introduction[]
A bright and energetic young woman who serves as the mayor of the commercial city Bose. After her father's passing, she inherited his political base and became the youngest mayor in history. While she can be somewhat lazy at times, such as skipping prayers at the Septian Church, her attentive and generous nature has earned her the strong trust of the people of Bose.[1]
Appearance[]
Maybelle is a young woman with bright blue eyes and long wavy straw blonde hair which is tied back with a red ribbon. She wears an ash and red dress made up of two layers, with long purple frills and an opening at the bust. The dress has a collar which is fastened by a golden brooch with a dark blue gemstone. A matching set of pins connects a golden cord in the front of her dress. She also wears small brown flat shoes with silver toe caps.
Personality[]
Mayor Maybelle is a pleasant and easy-going person who doesn't brag about her vast wealth and who's still trying to prove herself worthy of her father's heritage. While she's usually polite and proper, she can be spontaneous and unrestrained as well, as shown when she was the only mayor at the banquet to openly voice her misgivings about the duke's ascension to the throne and the way the announcement was handled.
Maybelle's election was rather controversial at the time due to her age, seeing that she's leading Liberl's commercial hub while still being in her twenties, but her critics changed their minds when she proved her competence as a leader. Despite her upper-class appearance, Maybelle isn't one to rule the city from an ivory tower. She frequently checks up on the affairs in town and makes an effort to inspect the market whenever she can and even whenever she can't, like during her church visits. She tends to play hooky from mass while having Lila and Sarah pray in her stead. This is also the case when Estelle, Joshua and Scherazard first meet her; rather than attending church she's busy scolding two merchants in the market for bad business practices.
Aside from her mayoral duties, she's still a very savvy businesswoman and while she leaves the daily management of the Anterose up to the restaurant manager, Maybelle likes to eat at other restaurants whenever she's away from Bose and if the food impresses her, offer the ones responsible for the food jobs at the Anterose. As a result, the staff at the Anterose is composed of people from all over the country and even beyond.
While Maybelle tends to leave the Anterose to Manager Lechter and the praying to her maids, she's still an extremely busy person who's usually swamped with work. While this frustrates her, she's also the type of person who thrives on having a hectic schedule. She's apparently like her late father in this way.
