Maya Vie

Maya Vie was a recurring character in the second season. She was portrayed by cast member Eve Harlow and debuted in "The 48" with her last appearance in "Blood Must Have Blood (Part 2)".

Maya worked in the medical section of Mount Weather and also had ties to the Mount Weather decontamination unit. Her knowledge of the facility and willingness to help the Delinquents kept the majority of them safe and alive inside the mountain.

Early Life
Maya was originally born on Earth.

Maya lived with her father, Vincent Vie, in Mount Weather. When she was young, both her parents were part of a resistance movement within Mount Weather that refused the blood treatments from Grounders, resulting in her mother's death. After her mother's death her father decided to continue accepting the blood treatments because Maya was too young to be left alone.

Maya worked in the Medical Ward of Mount Weather and also assisted with quarantine breaches and decontamination.

Personality
Maya is a determined character with a gentle soul, and willing to help anyone in need. She has a revolutionary spark inside of her, which she got from her parents.

Physical Appearance
Maya has short, dark, frizzy hair. She is 5'6 (1,70 m) and has a medium physique. Due to living in Mount Weather her whole life, she has very pale skin.
