So I was rewatching Nimona with my boyfriend (as you do) and Nimona's flashback hit me really hard in a different way than the first time.

Who is Mara?

(requested by Anon)

"Mara" has become a stock name within the Masters of the Universe franchise that can refer to any one of 3 different characters.

Ambassador Mara, apprentice to Master Sabrian (New Adventures of He-Man, 1989)

The first use of a character named Mara was in 1989 for the series "The New Adventures of He-Man" which was supposed to be a sequel to the original Filmation Masters of the Universe show, only with a new cast of supporting heroes and villains, and taking place in space.

Mara was one of those new supporting heroes.

When she's first introduced, its as an ambassador, who's also still an intern (???) for planet Primus' sage, Master Sabrian. Sabrian is the only person who knows Adam's identity as He-Man and he creates the cover story that Adam is his nephew. Mara is suspicious of this cover story from the very start.

Over the course of the series Mara branches out from just being an ambassador and apprentice. She instead starts backing He-Man up on the battlefield in his struggle against Primus' enemies.

This is also the looks that inspired Mara's action figure.

Champion Mara/Chosen One Mara (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, 2018)

In the 2018 Dreamworks production of She-Ra, Mara is the last Champion to have wielded the Sword of Protection before Adora.

Some time before Adora found the Sword of Protection in the Whispering Woods, Mara was the Chosen weirder. But she decided to go against the ruling power of her time which wants to use the Protection sword and the planet of Etheria as a weapon of mass destruction. Instead, Mara disabled the weapon and hid the Sword of Protection.

Her character is very different from her portrayal in 1989, but her design does bear a strong resemblance.

Queen Mara (Core/CGI Masters of the Universe tie-in novel "I, Skeletor", 2022)

In this most recent appearance, Mara is not an ambassador, an intern, or a Champion. She is a queen. Not just a queen, the Queen of Eternia.

In the 2022 novel, Mara is the name of King Miro's wife and the mother of both Randor and Keldor.

There are no illustrations of this version of Mara, so there is no design to compare. But from Keldor|Skeletor's description of her, we know that Queen Mara is very well educated with a focus in Astronomy, and she has a very keen and strategic mind, King Miro trusts her judgment and often asks her advice on matters before making a final decision.

havent watched she-ra in a while but im bringing back some of my old mara hcs bc we barely got any of her in the show!!!!!

-she is clumsy. incredibly so. she barely manages to hold herself together. im right.

-she will eat ANYTHING. you could give her wood and tell her it's food and she'd bite into it. she would eat all of it too. no hesitation.

-autism.

-she kisses robots. i forgot the holograms name but they were so in love.

-girlfailure. but shes cool as fuck when she's transformed and most of her clumsiness is just. gone.

-yes she knows how to repair spacecraft. she hyperfixated on it as a teen and knows everything you could possibly know about spaceship innards.

Light Hope - Permanently Delete

Anyone else notice how Light Hope never brought up activating the Black Garnet to Adora, and instead remained focused on combat training? Something that was, at best, extremely incidental to her programming's goals?

Like, in Season 1 you can argue there's an element of placating Adora - that Light Hope is training her because otherwise Adora was just going to tantrum and leave - but by Season 4?

By Protocol, Adora is bored and frustrated, and is actively seeking the First Ones' secret weapon.

And yet Light Hope remains vague about 'balancing Etheria', implying that more She-Ra training is needed to achieve that goal.

Except, y'know, it isn't.

=======

Adora getting better at fighting isn't going to activate the Black Garnet, the one piece of the Heart that's actually missing.

Once all the channels are open, it doesn't matter what state the Horde or the Rebellion are in, and Adora's competence (or, indeed, her concious compliance) is entirely irrelevant.

So why didn't Light Hope push Adora to capture the Garnet?

And why did she use Glimmer to that end? What changed?

Well.

========

Of all the characters in this show, Light Hope is the one most explicitly bound by Fate. For all that she is more than what she was made to be, she is unable to abandon the Castle and the Heart, or stop searching for a new She-Ra. She cannot so flagrantly deny her programming.

But she could frustrate and circumvent it, driven by a secret memory of warmth.

She could slow walk her search for the next She-Ra, modifying the parameters to ensure the most unsuitable candidate possible.

She could 'accidentally' place them somewhere where she might never be able to reach them.

She could waste time on pointless trivialities and parlour tricks, things that are ultimately irrelevant to the Heart's true purpose.

And, of course, she could mis-order the steps, requiring the planet to be 'balanced' before revealing how that could be done.

=====

Light Hope's distant, high-handed, frustrating bullshit is not malice, or an expression of her intrinsically inhuman nature - it is a form of protection.

Her attempts at creating a new She-Ra are ineffective, not because she is incompetent, but because in her deepest, most secret of hearts, she does not want to succeed.

Until, of course, that resistance is discovered - and crushed.

=====

[But not completely, not forever - because in the end there is always, always a choice]

This She Ra design got a refresher! The design was my betrotheds that I put it into digital format.

A good reminder: You're worth more than what you can give to other people.

It's on Redbubble and Teepublic if you'd like it on a variety of cute stuff!

SPOP is full of tragedy, but there is nothing so quietly tragic as Light Hope's little "Warmth. Her memory brings me warmth."

#SPOP #She Ra #crying for a thousand years #on account of the reprograming. Adora spent very very little time with the 'real' Light Hope. #and even after she's gone the same voice actress dubs Darla #which is also so. quietly tragic. #Light Hope is the quietest tragedy. #Mara and Adora and Catra and Glimmer #everyone's tragic is central and scored by incredible music #Light Hope's tragedy is in these quiet little moments
