Mara de la Cruz is a half-Blood Elf and one of the the most powerful mortals of the cast. She's an underground fighter, going under the name "Elf Diablo".
Backstory[]
In the late 1890s, Mara was born to a human mother and blood-elf father in the town of Todos Santos. Her father was a soldier stationed there, and Mara never knew their father’s true race until his unfortunate death. Their dad fought in the Garza Revolution, yet upon discovering his true identity, his very own comrades fired on him, killing him for fear of what he could do. Mara showed love only to her mother, both sides fearing her and not wanting her to exist. To blood elves, her unique ability due to her mixed heritage was a sign of the end for their race, and to humans, they were a Demon. This culminated in the Blood Elves attempting to kill Mara, yet only killed their mother, who desperately tried to protect her child.
Mara, with nowhere else to go, and ostracized, left her hometown. The next 123 years, they would hone their powers, and become a powerful fighter to match the level of martial artists. As such, she took up underground fighting, done between Blood Elves, Sun Elves, Mountain Elves, humans aware of them, and eventually the Beast Folk. They took up the fighting name “Elf Diablo,” not only a fun play on words, but also to eventually let go of the fear both sides saw of her as a monster. On their travels, they end up in the States and met Oren, who eventually showed them the Caifé.

Powers[]
Since Mara is half blood elf, she has the same magic as them. Pyromancy, called upon from the inner fire of their heart to burn whatever they touch, however Mara's pyromancy is different. For they can expel their fire, especially as shown in her signature move "Corazon de Fuego" or "Heart of Fire." Said move functions as a power boost, achieved only near the point of defeat.
Their half-human heritage allows them to ascend to even greater heights, access to more power than her elven brethren. Yet presumably like them, even she has some limit before their heart explodes.
Personality[]
Mara is quite stern, cynical, and forward, who struggles to show any kind of affection or love, and especially receiving it. They need to be loved, to be shown love. However, Mara does show her love quietly, helping Oren with harvests, snapping Kael’Thal’s spine back into place, and baking with Cyana, to the secret of everybody else. But in the ring, they’re incredibly passionate when fighting. In the ring, that's when they're in their element.
Trivia[]
- Their favourite colour is Blood Red.
- Mara is the only one strong enough to give relief to Kael'Thal’s back problems.
- They are fluent in both Spanish and English.
- According to P.M. Seymour, six characters that served as inspiration for Mara were Lohse from Divinity: Original Sin 2, Hammer from Fable II, Doman Kasshu from Gundam, Android 18 from Dragon Ball, Audrey Ramirez from Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and Marisa from Fire Emblem.[1]
