Maéva, mostly known as "Shorty", is a female character who was introduced with a small cameo in Sift Heads 3, and later became a playable protagonist in the Sift Heads Series.

Early Life
Shorty was born in 1990. Shorty has a hazy past - although she grew up in a wealthy French family, she quickly became bored with her daily life. Wanting to live dangerously, she began to flirt with drug dealers across Eastern Europe in search of a new adventure. However, things began to go awry for Shorty, which led her to leave the country and join forces with the infamous bounty hunter, Vinnie. Although Shorty had a minimal role in earlier SH games by mostly serving as Vinnie's eye candy, she gained a more active and integral role in the games, later becoming a playable player in the entourage. From there on, Shorty and Vinnie would continue establishing their reputations as notorious bounty hunters.

Appearance
Shorty is usually depicted with grey hair, red heels, and rouge lipstick while donning a red femme fatale dress. Like Vinnie, she can be always be seen wearing sunglasses. Though she is sometimes seen without them.

Abilities
Shorty is a weapons expert and an experienced assassin with skills on par to Vinnie and Kiro. She is the best sharpshooter of the group and ideal for tactical diversions.
