Ari DuCheng

Arianne DuCheng or Marinette Dupain-Cheng is one of the recurring characters in the Miracuverse AU. She is an alternate universe version of Marinette Dupain-Cheng, coming from the Stray Miraculous Universe.

She is a young designer that heads the haute couture Aria brand.

Physical Appearance
Arianne is a teenage girl of half-French and half-Chinese descent. Her hair is blue and is of modest length; going slightly beyond her shoulders, usually having them straightened. She has bluebell eyes and paler skin, with some freckles on the bridge of her nose and her cheeks.

Civilian Attire
DuCheng often opts to wear her own designer clothing, taking inspiration from various fashion cultures. On the first day of school at College Francoise Dupont, she explicitly took inspiration from the Seoul street fashion scene, wearing a face mask and a long coat.

Personality
Arianne is a self-aware, devoted and expressive character. Much like her counterpart, Marinette, she takes it upon herself to help people going through issues. In contrast to Marinette, she paints herself as a dismissive and open realist; even once openly crying in public because of "nostalgia". However, when it comes to dire situations, Arianne demonstrates a strong will to protect and defend, especially those who are defenseless, or are dear to her.

Around people close to her, such as Rien Sauvage, she openly acts flirtatiously, even if it is a platonic relationship. However, she also tends to show a more genuine side, where she often takes the role of a listener.
