History:
As one of London's many abandoned children, Marilyn quickly resorted to begging and eventually pickpocketing to be able to survive. A few years later down the line, she would be part of a little gang of homeless children who were ordered around by a member of one of London's street gangs. They would spend their days taking valuables off people and bring them to their leader's home at the end of the day, those who had taken the most valuable things would be given food and a warm place to rest inside the leader's home, while those who brought nothing or had the lowest amount of value would be left to sleep in the streets.
Marilyn wasn't a good thief in her childhood, something that would make her spend countless nights trying to find something to combat the cold with or searching in the trash for something to eat. Over time she realized that she couldn't last like this. She started watching how the other kids shoplifted without being noticed, how did they choose their victims, learning what streets they used to lose someone who was pursuing them. The day she finally entered the house was probably the 2nd happiest day of her life.
Her meeting with the supernatural would come when a hyde would appear in the middle of the night. It pounded wildly on the door of the main bedroom, where the gang's leader had locked himself in. While some kids were hidden or running away from the house she looked for something to hit the strange monster with. If she could drive him out she certainly would be rewarded. As if it was answering her call, a strange-little humanoid creature appeared beside her offering her the ability to defeat the monster and turning the night even more bizarre. She made short work of the beast after transforming, noticing her increased abilities.
With the problem being disposed of Marilyn asked for a large sum of money in return for having saved their lives, which she was promptly given, everyone being none the wiser about her true identity. Not too long after that, she left to go live on her own, with her new powers she could aim for bigger riches than simple pickpocketing, as well as charging for her services to those she rescues from hydes who had become visible.

Ectognatha
Ladybug's magic consists of forming pacts with all kinds of insect spirits. The spirits let her borrow their abilities to use in battle in exchange for her magic reserves. Borrowing an ant's mandibles to cut through obstacles, using the wings of a mosquito to fly or a grasshopper's legs to jump high are some examples of things she can do. Any extra appendages that are created manifest as light brown constructs.
