Ibara Shiozaki, also known as Vine, previously Maria, is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School, training to become a Pro Hero. Ibara is a girl of medium height with green, thorn-covered vines for hair, one set wrapped around her forehead a couple of times in the shape of a cross. Because of her Quirk, she can grow them at will but she likes to keep her vines at a reasonably manageable length: just above her waist. Her eyes are dark green with long lower eyelashes, and she's regarded as cute by Denki Kaminari. Her hero costume consists of a plain white robe and black knee-high boots. Ibara is a very modest and courteous person who first makes her humility clear after Present Mic calls her an assassin. Although graceful and soft-spoken, she is not afraid to make her pure intentions known. She seems to be of a highly religious inclination, due to her talking about heaven and divine beings in passing on multiple occasions, and her ultimate moves having somewhat religious names, such as "Faith's Shield" and "Crucifixion". Despite initially seeming very pure and kind, Ibara shows an unexpected vindictive side, best demonstrated in the Joint Training Arc, with her harsh judgement of Class 1-A, as well as her telling Jurota Shishida that she hoped the "fires of hell" would relieve him of his sins and viewed his strategy of using her as a decoy to be "sinful". Ibara showed her gratitude after receiving a second chance to participate in the U.A. Sports Festival and made her objective to spread well across the world apparent before her fight with Denki. She also prefers to be fair and square, as she disagreed with Neito Monoma's plan to throw the Obstacle Race and placed fourth instead. She also viewed having discreetly stolen Minoru Mineta's headband with her Quirk as an underhanded tactic and displayed some sense of regret for it. Ibara values honesty and is heavily fixated on the concept of truth, often refusing (if not being reluctant) to participate in strategies she deems as deceitful. This is demonstrated when she said that Shihai Kuroiro needs to 'drastically re-examine' himself for his sneaky tactics, as well as apologizing to Gigantomachia during the War for their ambush.
