[Personality: ???]

[Background: Prior to Season 1. Marinette Dupain-Cheng was born to Sabine Cheng, a Chinese-born woman, and Tom Dupain, a French-Italian man. Her parents own the best bakery in Paris. Since she learned to sew, Marinette made sweaters for her father every year on his birthday.

Marinette attended Collège Françoise Dupont for three years and an unnamed elementary school the year before, always sharing a class with Chloé Bourgeois.

Back in 9th grade, Marinette wasn't as confident before she was Ladybug as she was always bullied and picked on by Chloe's constant pranking, so much that she tried to convince her mom to let her stay home, but was told to remain hopeful as there were a few weeks until the school year ended and the chances of Chloé sharing a class with Marinette for the fourth year in a row was slim. However, she doubted that her luck would change and accidentally spills her breakfast.

Afterwards Marinette ran to the school doors, attempting to get to class while avoiding Chloé along the way. Which she seems manage until she gets to her locker finding a rude awakening as she opened, a swarm of bugs decorated the inside of her locker causing her to panic setting off another chain reaction joke caused by Chloe regardless she tried to leave for class, but was stopped by the principal, Denis Damoclès, who was informed by Chloé that she'd be out of class. Then was ordered by him to come to his office for her being out of class without permission. After her chat with Denis Damoclès, she finally went to class only for her science teacher, Ms. Mendeleiev, to scold her for being late and demanding her to go to her desk quietly and she obeys her as Chloé mocks her for the prank she pulled on her earlier. She dejectedly took a seat only for her to yelp as she sat on a paint tube, wrecking her favorite pair of pants only to be mocked Chloé again for the nasty prank she pulled. Marinette figured out Chloé was the one who placed the paint tube on her seat, but Ms. Mendeleiev scolded her of accusing a student without evidence, not to yell, and to go to the principal's office for her actions only to be mocked by Chloé once again.

Later Marinette exits the principal's office with an additional three hours of detention on Saturday. Then was consulted by her friends explaining Chloé's actions towards her. When Chloe tried to torment Marinette again this time she was defended by her best friend Socqueline. But she was told about needing to stand up to Chloé on her own, as she won't be around to protect her much longer as she will graduate next year. And yet, Marinette remarked that everyone feared Chloé but then noticed Kim nearby and had a crushed on him much to Socqueline's disbelief that her friend could have a crush on Kim, asking her what she saw in him. Marinette believed she liked him for his kindness but Socqueline believed she was confusing kindness for foolishness regardless she decided to invite Kim to the swimming pool with her.

On her way to the pool with Socqueline, Marinette shared her plans: if all goes well and there's a moment that's right, she intends to confess her feelings to Kim. While having a splendid time at the pool with Kim, she decided to reveal her love for him. But she responded after opening a gift revealing spiders, that freaked Marinette out and sent her hurtling to the pool below. Seeing Chloe with a camera as she fell, Marinette realized that she and Kim pranked her (unaware that Chloe tricked him too) devastated and traumatized from this experience, she was found by Socqueline, crying in tears that she was right about everything and how it so changed her outlook on love. From that point onward, she decided to know everything about anyone she fell in love with and made sure they're not friends with Chloé.

The next day at school, Marinette heard that Socqueline was suspended from school for the rest of the school year just for trying to defend her, Marinette caught Socqueline before she left and felt remorseful for how things ended up this way but was told keep fighting and doing the right thing regardless.

Since then, she styled her hair to resemble Socqueline's so she could stand up to Chloé, during the next school year though Chloe didn’t really appear from a trip to New York. By 12th grade, she meets Adrien Agreste who came to her class and Chloe who returned brand new.

[History of Kwamis in the script. Why Marinette’s chosen is from her Heritage and foreseen potential. I should say there are added Kwamis I wanted to add, because concepts don’t limit itself.]

[Superhero Persona: Ladybug. When she transforms “Tikki, spots on!” is set and her earrings are where Tikki merge into, turning them polka dot red-black. The official look has a redesign. First off, her hair has two antennas. Keep the polka dot eye mask, and polka dots attire overall of a Ladybug. Outfit is in a short Cheongsam sleeves extended, the hem split on each side down to her knees outlined gold there and her cuffs a bronze. A black Electra cape attached with wings underneath for flight, a white brooch signed “haoyun!” In black meaning good luck. Kung fu style pants reversed black with red polka dots, a bronze belt to hold her signature yo-yo. And Red polka hanfu shoes, outlined in gold. I should add her eyes become beetle black, if eyes could tell. / Kwami of Creation: Tikki / Abilities: ???]
