Maine

Maine (メイン州, Mein-shū) or Everette "Ever" Modesty Pelletier Atwater (エベレット・モデスティ・ペルティエ・アトウォーター, Eberetto modesuti perutie atou~ōtā) is a fan-made character in Hetalia: Axis Powers. He represents the State of Maine.
==Appearance==
Maine is a tall, slender young man with messy, short golden blond hair with forest green eyes and pale skin. He has a birthmark on his shoulder that represents Moosehead Lake, a birthmark in the middle of his chest that represents Mount Katahdin and a cross necklace that represents the Popham Colony. He also has a scar on his stomach that's from the Dummer's War. Most people usually see Maine in a blue flannel with a brown Carhartt jacket, jeans and black winter boots. However, he can be seen on the docks with his lobster trapping getup or his sailor's uniform.
==Personality and Interests==
Maine is a introverted and reclusive young man who's known for being quite peaceful and friendly with a soft voice. He doesn't like being forced into social situtations and isn't much of a speaker. Maine doesn't mind being overlooked and goes out of his way to hide in plain sight. Like Upstate and North, he doesn't like visitors and he also has a hard time finding confidence.
He's known for being a pacifist, but did support the American Revolution (after a lot of convincing from his siblings). Due to being the oldest among the Northeast, they often joke with him about having 'older brother instincts' as he always seems to appear whenever there's a fight or whenever someone's hurt. He doesn't like to see or hear fighting as he had enough of it when England and France would fight over ownership of him. They also love to call him 'Little England' due to his similar appearance to him and 'Little Canada' because foreigners keep mistaking him as a part of Canada, not that he cares.
Since Maine's home is mostly unclaimed wilderness, he lives in one of his many forests. No one really knows where he lives because he keeps it a secret. Maine loves to take walks through his forests. He also has a deep love of his rocky coasts and loves being around water. He often spends a lot of his time at his piers or on a rowboat out in the ocean. Maine's quite skilled in catching lobsters, sailing and fishing. Maine usually fishes and/or catches lobsters to look at them, but he will eat his catches sometimes. He's also quite skilled in other winter activities such as iceskating, skiing and snowboarding.
His favorite genre is horror and likes to put on a horror movie when Mass is around to scare him. Maine usually speaks English, but is very fluent in French. He usually only speaks French to annoy Mass or when he's talking to Canada and his provinces. Maine's favorite foods are baked beans, fish, lobster rolls, maple syrup and Moxie Ployes. He has a Maine Coon he named Pine Tree and a blue lobster he named Snack.
==Relationships==
===Massachusetts (Theo R. Sullivan Atwater)===
Maine and Mass are the only two boys in the entire region of New England. However, they're distant with each other. Mass used to live with Maine and was raised by him for most of his childhood with Plymouth. However, they drifted when Mass started to rebel. Maine usually avoids Mass whenever possible. It's not that Maine hates him, it's just Maine considers him to be boorish and hates how disrespectful he is to other people's opinions.
===Connecticut (Minty C. Murphy Atwater)===
Despite not seeing or even talking much to each other, Maine enjoys her company, though she can get too hyper for him. Maine usually visits her as 'it's cold in his state' according to Connie, and he doesn't like company in his house. Maine was the one who accidentally got her into lobster rolls and begs him to get her some when he visits.
===Rhode Island (Ren H. Rhodes)===
As well as enjoying Connie's company, Maine also enjoys Rhode's company. Maine admires Rhode for her confidence, something of which he struggles to find. They usually sit down at the pier or get on a rowboat and talk. Usually, it's Rhode doing all the talking which is mostly about architecture. Maine finds it cute about her obsession for architecture. In turn, Rhode finds it funny about his obsession with lobsters.
===New York State (Brooke A. Verhoeven)===
Maine enjoys York's company. Despite the fact they don't really talk, he enjoys the hikes they go on. When she does talk to him, she's quite nice to him. Maine doesn't really know why Upstate seems to like him, but it's probably because of his calm and quiet nature.
===New Hampshire (Ava G. Collins)===
Maine likes to hang out with Hampshire. One of the reasons he doesn't hang out with Hamp as much is because of Monty's personality as she's a little too loud for Maine. However, when she isn't there, Hamp and Maine are quite talkative together. They both enjoy horror and usually watch some movies when Maine comes over. Maine thinks of Hamp as a little sister and likes to teach her things he knows, like how to catch lobsters.
===Vermont (Monty S. Allen)===
Maine doesn't like Monty as she's a little too loud for him. However, Monty has been trying her best to lower her voice and get to know him better with Hampshire's help. When Hamp was a colony, Monty and Maine worked together to teach her French. They ended up succeeding.
===New Brunswick===
Maine is quite close to Brunswick. He likes to spend time with both her and Quebec.
===Quebec===
He enjoys his company.
===Abenaki===
For all of his childhood, Maine was raised by Abenaki and the Wabanaki Confederacy. Maine likes to Abenaki as his father and the rest of the Wabanaki Confederacy as his uncles and aunts. Because of living with them for such a long time, Maine understand and can speak a lot of the Wabanaki Confederacy's languages.
===Plymouth Colony (Reverie Kirkland)===
Maine agreed with Rhode when she overtly despised Plymouth. Though, he wasn't so open with his hatred, preferring to agree with Rhode when she argued rather than flat-out saying he was repulsed by her. He hated her thinly veiled arrogance and refused any contact with her unless it was necessary. He wasn't upset when she died when the Dominion of New England was broken up.
===America (Alfred F. Jones)===
America is usually too loud for Maine and Maine usually avoids him. Thankfully, America usually forgets about him and doesn't visit him. However, he calls him a lot. Maine usually pretends he's busy or with his siblings and he needed to call him back later.
===England (Arthur Kirkland)===
Maine is distant with England, but not as distant as the others. Though, he was unhappy when England tried to set up a colony named New Ireland twice in his state, both times were during wars.
===France (Francis Bonnefoy)===
Like England, Maine doesn't exactly like him as France and England used to fight a lot over him. Maine had wished they would get along, but they didn't until France lost in the French and Indian War. Unlike England, Maine does visit France from time to time. France isn't his favorite, but he's better than going with Mass to visit England and hearing them fight again.
===Canada (Matthew Williams)===
Maine usually is the one to initiates meetups or chats with each other. During these meetups, Maine and Canada can spend hours together. Maine does like Canada and his provinces better than America and most of his states, but he still likes Rhode and Connie and sometimes, Mass.
