'''Maria Hurston''', née ''Maria Wharton'', was the wife of [[StarCitizen:Jasper Hurston]]. '''Maria''' married Jasper in [[StarCitizen:2799]], at the age of 22. Jaspers parents disapproved of his marriage to '''Maria''', an event that would lead to him being disavowed from the Hurston family, and eventually all but forgotten.<ref name=":0">{{Cite Jump Point|title=Portfolio: Maria Pure of Heart|volume=10|month=7|startpage=25|endpage=30|accessdate=2023-05-19}}</ref>

While there are no plaques or memorials to her husband, '''Maria's''' life is memorialized in the name of the [[StarCitizen:Maria Pure of Heart]] medical facility.<ref name=":0" />

The cause of the falling out between her husband and his family was due to '''Maria's''' heritage. The Wharton family was once a prominent family within the [[StarCitizen:United Empire of Earth]], having built the space port in [[StarCitizen:Quinton]], and the biodomes over [[StarCitizen:Jata]]. The Wharton family however would fall out of the public sphere of influence after being blacklisted by the [[StarCitizen:Messer Era|Messer Regime]] for the ''heinous'' act of refusing to build internment centers.<ref name=":0" />

== Life and Career ==
'''Maria''' spent much of her childhood impoverished and living in a tenement high-rise in Jata. After having their family legacy destroyed, the Wharton family became staunch anti-Messer activists.<ref name=":0" />

In [[StarCitizen:2792]], at the age of fifteen, '''Maria''' was photographed alongside her parents celebrating the overthrow of the Messer regime in the streets of Jata. She would become a ''[[StarCitizen:Spectrum]]'' celebrity overnight.<ref name=":0" />

'''Maria''' would go on to utilize this newfound fame to call for a variety of progressive issues and to lift her family out of poverty.<ref name=":0" />

=== Family and Personal Life ===
'''Maria''' would be introduced to Jasper Hurston through a mutual friend. The two would form the foundation of their relationship bonding over a shared sense of family history and politics that worked against them.<ref name=":0" />

It would be '''Maria''' who would convince Jasper to stay at [[StarCitizen:Hurston Dynamics]] in order to leverage his position to bring about changes for the better. '''Maria''' would use Jaspers position within the company to raise her own prominence and fame by hosting charity events.<ref name=":0" />

=== Whistleblowing ===
In [[StarCitizen:2803]] Jasper would share an internal report that was debating whether it would be cheaper to comply with a wave of new environmental protections and workers rights laws, or fighting them in court, with '''Maria'''. The couple went on to contact a ''[[StarCitizen:Terra Gazette]]'' reporter with the names of employees who had been seriously injured in an explosion at a Hurston weapon manufacturing plant and were subsequently "off-booked" as part of a predatory labor practice that prevented Hurston Dynamics from having to housing and health care to its employees.<ref name=":0" />

After the ''Terra Gazette'' broke the story supplied to them by '''Maria''', she would go on to start a fundraising campaign to pay for the healthcare of any workers that had been "off-booked" by Hurstan Dynamics. This highly public admonishment of the company would result in Jasper and '''Maria''' being summoned to the companies headquarters by [[StarCitizen:Alton Hurston]], Jaspers father and the CEO of Hurston Dynamics at the time.<ref name=":0" />

Subsequent negotiations with Alton would result in '''Maria''' stopping her public criticism of the company in exchange for the company hiring her to address the issue, and Jaspers transfer back to the Headquarters.<ref name=":0" />

=== Later Life and Career ===
in [[StarCitizen:2804]] '''Maria''' headed the largest expansion of Hurston's healthcare program to date. However, '''Maria''' and Jaspers life after moving to [[StarCitizen:Earth]] was made difficult by a faction within the Hurston family who resented the couples rise to power. The faction would dedicate themselves to opposing initiatives led by both Jasper and '''Maria''', such as '''Maria's''' continued attempts to expand the company's healthcare policies.<ref name=":0" />

=== Corporate Takeover ===
By [[StarCitizen:2811]] '''Maria''' and Jasper realized that they were being stonewalled at every turn in their attempts at modernizing Hurston Dynamics. The couple reasoned that the only way to effect any real change would be with Jasper being named CEO, and that the only way they would obtain that goal was with a complete corporate takeover.<ref name=":0" />

After secret meetings with various family members ranging in levels of support, in an attempt to secure support for their takeover, Jasper would be summoned to Alton's office and ultimately fired for plotting a coup. '''Maria''' would attempt to get Jasper his job back by threatening to expose the company's illegal dumping of toxic chemicals into a lake on [[StarCitizen:Asura]], however, in the end her attempts would fail and Jasper would never work for the company again.<ref name=":0" />

=== Hurtson Health Foundation ===
In [[StarCitizen:2812]] '''Maria''' would launch the [[StarCitizen:Hurston Health Foundation]], a charity whose focus was on providing medical care to every former employee of Hurston Dynamics that had been "off-booked."<ref name=":0" />

=== Legacy ===
Following her death in [[StarCitizen:2880]], Jasper and '''Maria's''' son, [[StarCitizen:Chesterfield Hurston]], would dedicate the brand new and state-of-the-art medical facility in [[StarCitizen:Lorville]] to her.<ref name=":0" />
