Maera Noirette

Maera Noirette is the mother of Nyssa Noirette, currently hospitalised due to some form of serious illness. Nyssa spent her student funds attempting to pay for Maera's medical bills.
As of Arc 2, Maera is in remission, and resides at the apartment she used to share with her daughter.
== Appearance ==
Maera looks a lot like her daughter, with pale skin and black hair, but their are clear differences - unlike her daughter, Maera has green eyes, and is most notably human as opposed to faunus. She keeps her hair in a ponytail over one shoulder, and wears a hospital gown due to her poor health.
Following her discharge from Mistral's hospital due to her going into remission, Maera wears a collared white shirt under a brown sweater.
== Personality ==
Maera is a kind and considerate woman, insistent on making sure her daughter is well despite her own ill health. She expresses pride in her daughter and is concerned when she puts herself down or shows a lack of faith. Most notably is her concern about Nyssa being the victim of discrimination.
Maera says she 'promised' to be a better mother, suggesting she was not always one in the past. This may be because Nyssa is a faunus and Maera had trouble understanding how to raise someone whose issues she could not properly comprehend, but it is also likely that she was detached from her daughter due to past trauma surrounding the girl's father that she was initially unable to overlook.
