She has his eyes and nose, or lack there of. However, she does indeed have a nose, though small, and as she grows older, Marron begins to look more like her mother. Unlike the rest of the other Z Fighters' children, Marron is the only one who was never trained by her mother or father which means that she either has never shown any special abilities or martial arts skills of her own, or simply doesn't have any wish to give up on her normal life.".

- marron-glace comment "Age: 16 Hair: Black Brother: Carrot Marron gets the provisions and usually doesn't say much unless it is intensely profound. He is also the only Sorcerer Hunter (in the name at least) who can use magic. Marron's main and only goal is to make his brother happy and to protect his brother, giving up all pleasures and desires for himself. It seems as if Marron is the weakest character, but when Carrot is threatened, his vicious side shows through. However, Marron does not stop Tira or Chocolate from doing what they will to Carrot. Marron is very beautiful and often gets looks from both sexes. Once or twice he has used this to his advantage by getting information or by letting a few guards believe he is a girl. If anything, Marron can be counted on and always has the right answer.".

A 1/4-Medusa, 3/4-human girl. Her mother told her "We're medusae, so if we make eye contact with a human they'll be turned to stone." While growing up, she always stuck to their words and hid herself away from the world in the forest. Even after they died, she continued to live alone. By chance, a boy named Seto visited the forest and found her. He has since brought her to the outside world. After coming to the Mekakushi Dan's hideout, and joining the group, she leads a sideline life making fake flowers in her room which generate a very small income. When she went into town to buy ingredients, the first people she met were neighborhood children. They bullied her, and she was traumatized by the incident, so she rarely goes outside anymore.

Timelines After the Snake of Clearing Eyes' plans were foiled by Ayano, it decided to focus on forcing Mary to reset time instead, so it could keep existing. To do this, it would possess Konoha and kill most or every Mekakushi Dan member in order for Mary to use her Combining Eyes ability to call upon all snakes and reset time so she could spend more time with her friends. However, during the true ending after many repeats, Shintaro and Ayano stopped her so she could use the snakes powers to swallow the world in the Heat Haze instead, effectively fulfilling Kenjirou's wish and erasing the Snake of Clearing Eyes from existence.

- martel comment "Knight-Commander Martel is first encountered during the meeting with Divine Beatrix III at the Grand Cathedral in Val Royeaux, where he accuses the Seekers of being reckless by not asking for Templar reinforcements in their attack on the blood mage ritual. High Seeker Aldren argued that the Seekers of Truth maintained stealth and discretion in comparison to the Templars, a suggestion at which Martel took offense. Grand Cleric Callista warned them against openly arguing in the presence of the Divine. Later at Callista's request, he is dispatched to lead the hunt to apprehend the renegade Seeker Cassandra Pentaghast and Regalyan D'Marcall. While hunting the pair, Martel accidentally reveals that he is Frenic's co-conspirator in the Chantry ranks. The duo were able to steal the elven communication stone he possessed to communicate with Frenic and trapped him in a cave. The Knight-Commander survived and he anticipated that they would attempt to alert the High Seeker. Infiltrating the Seeker stronghold, Martel murdered Aldren before he could alert the Divine of his treachery, framing Cassandra and Regalyan for the deed. Martel later met with Callista in a Chantry confession booth to report on his success. Together, they plotted to seize control of the Chantry, with Callista as the new Divine, and planned on betraying Frenic. Martel later visited Cassandra and Regalyan in the dungeon, revealing the conspiracy's grand plan: Frenic would use the elven mage, Avexis, to command high dragons to assassinate the Divine and other Grand Clerics at the Ten year gathering. And from the ashes, Martel would lead the Chantry into a new age where the Templars rule supreme. Cassandra stated that the Seekers would never allow him to seize power but Regalyan suspected that one among the Grand Clerics was involved in the conspiracy would become Divine if all others in line for succession were wiped out. Cassandra demanded the identity of Martel's co-conspirator but he refused to answer. Martel presides over Cassandra's execution. However, before she is beheaded, the Circle mages summoned by Regalyan attack, enabling Cassandra to escape. Though his Templars were incapacitated, Martel barred their escape and engaged Cassandra in a duel. The Seeker accused him of betrayal, to which he argued he was working to prevent events like Kirkwall from ever occurring again. Cassandra managed to sever his sword arm and ordered the Circle mages to bind him to stand trial. However, Martel broke free and attempted another attack, but Cassandra swiftly decapitates him.

She gets inside Alphonse's suit to make him unable to move when he gets captured by the Chimeras. She ends up developing a relationship with who tries to understand her motives unlike Ed.

- martel-yggdrasill comment "Martel is Mithos's sister and one of the four seraphims and the apparent deity worshiped by the Church of Martel—a monotheistic religion, with aspects derived from the real-life Roman Catholic Church. The Church is nearly identical in both the worlds of Tethe'alla and Sylvarant, save for the hierarchical system present in Tethe'alla which has a Pope as its spiritual leader. Martel is a half elf and was banished from Heimdall along with Mithos. She was murdered by a human who was attempting to take control of Mana. After her death, Mithos places Martel's soul in the Great Seed with the use of a Cruxis Crystal. Mithos then seeks to revive Martel no matter the consequences. Near the end of the game, Mithos succeeds in doing so, but Martel admonishes him for the actions he has done. After the germination of the great seed, Martel's soul merged with the great seed's soul. She then becomes the Summon Spirit of Yggdrasil, the new World Tree of Mana that Lloyd names at the end of the game as proof of the pact between them; although the name Lloyd chose is never mentioned, It is presumed to be "Yggdrasil" as that is the World Tree's name in Tales of Phantasia.".

- martin-56618a8c-b3d2-4451-9844-f7fc03f2097c comment "Martin, (voiced by Chika Sakamoto in Japanese and Cindy Robinson in English) was one of the boys Johan taught his "special game" to. The "game" went as following: two children would stand on the ledge of a building with their eyes closed and would walk toward one another; if they actually made it that far, they would then try to push the other off. The winners were the ones who lived, not just the ones who didn't fall. Martin ended up in the hospital after he failed to stay on the building's rooftop. He was frequently visited by Dr. Reichwein, but the psychologist often had to spend more time trying to comfort his mother than interacting with him. Dieter snuck into the boy's hospital room and the two of them wandered right out. While walking, Martin said that everything in the world was boring except for the "game," and tried to explain its procedure to Dieter. Dieter didn't really get it, so Martin took him up to a rooftop to explain it better, and in the process tried to force him to play a match. In response, Dieter said he'd never want to play a game like that because he cherishes life's simple pleasures and the people he knows far too much to risk losing it all in an instant. Martin almost fell off the roof after, but Dieter saved him; the boy then started realizing that he didn't want to die either and would stop playing the "game."".

Alter Alias uses highly compressed air to act as both a shield and powerful shockwaves.

- martina-crespi comment "Martina Crespi is the daughter of a wealthy family from southern Romagna. She is a bright and sociable girl but far too perky for a lady from a prominent family, which causes no end of headaches for her parents. To top it off, her speech and behavior is almost like that of a young boy. Because of training in classical ballet, she posseses a very flexible body and a keen sense of movement. Her favored tactic consists of extremely close range dogfighting with the enemy Neuroi. There was even an unusual case in her record, in which she used her striker to "kick out" the core from a Neuroi. A downside of her tactics is that she can sometimes be too fixated on what's happening in front of her, and losing sight of the bigger picture. She has a somewhat love-hate relationship with Fernandia Malvezzi, and is attached to Luciana Mazzei. She specializes in hit-and-run tactics within her team. (Source: Strike Witches Wiki)".

Enraged, Martina ran off and learned magic so that she could take revenge on Lina. Later, Martina joins forces with Lina and company. Martina is fickle in her love affairs, obsessed with whatever man she happens to see first that day. At the beginning of the series she is hung up on Zelgadis, but her interests switch to Gourry and even Xellos as the series progresses, before settling on Zangulus. She is obsessed with her Lord Zoamelgustar, a monster (demon) god she actually made up. Martina specializes in curses. She is usually an antagonist and comic foil for the other characters, but when Hellmaster Phibrizo "kills" her during the final battle, Martina uses her last moments to encourage Lina to keep fighting and save Gourry. She eventually marries Zangulus in a fake backdrop church, as her kingdom is still rebuilding after Lina's Dragon Slave. She is a character that is exclusive to the T.V. series, as she doesn't appear in the original light novels or the manga. In the Slayers NEXT episode where they play "Brass Racquets," the announcer gives her full name which is based on tennis superstar Martina Navratilova. (Source: Wikipedia)".

- maru comment "Maru is one of the two girls that led Watanuki into YÅ«ko's shop. It isn't stated whether the girls were created by YÅ«ko, Clow Reed, the both of them, or someone else entirely, but since they have no souls and cannot leave the shop, it can be assumed that they were created there. Possible Powers-In chapter 126, YÅ«ko explained why Maru and Moro are required to stay inside the shop. The shop itself is not seen by anyone unless they are fated to do business with YÅ«ko. Maru and Moro's concentration is what is keeping the shop in existence. As a side-effect, they have long deep bouts of sleep. They help out around the shop, but mostly act as the cheering squad. They almost always speak in unison, or close to it. Watanuki seems to get along with them most of the time, at least when they are not dragging him into one of YÅ«ko's plans. It is noted that Maru and Moro's full names are both words which mean "exposing oneself in public" – similar to "flashing" and "streaking" in English, and something that is quite possibly a pun on the 'xxx' part of xxxHOLiC. Even though the 'xxx' are intended to act as a variable in the title, their appearance resembles the 'XXX' which is synonymous with pornography. Given the target seinen audience, this double meaning is probably intentional. There are very few instances that Maru and Moro are in serious scenes. In the parasite angel chapter, Watanuki invited them to join him in the festival, however Maru and Moro said in unison (in a rather dazed look) "those without souls cannot leave this place... for their bodies will disintegrate." They also show some concern not only for YÅ«ko but also for Watanuki despite the fact they always annoy him. In volume 6 of the manga, when Watanuki came home from visiting the "lady in the park", Maru and Moro immediately sensed that something was wrong with Watanuki. When Watanuki finally collapsed, the two dragged Watanuki as far as the store's gates, saying "This is as far as we can go" before tossing Watanuki out to a waiting DÅ�meki. In the anime, Watanuki also shows signs of slight affection to the two; in episode 18, when DÅ�meki read a letter to Watanuki written by Mokona and Maru/Moro, Watanuki was somewhat pleased to see that they thought of him.
