Mariana

Mariana is a secondary character of My Best Friend Marneao. She is a very energetic demon of Inferni. She is the wife of Kristoff and mother of Miltch, and a prisoner of The Angelinato due to her unique power.

Appearance
Mariana is a red demon woman, with tail and horns. She has long hair and blue eyes. She usually wears a simple brown blouse and pants.

Personality
Mariana is a strong-willed and energetic woman. She's a free soul and a rebel who would stand against anything she considers unfair. She would inherit lots of her personality to her son.

She is also a loving wife to Kristoff and a wonderful mother to Miltch.

Abilities
Mariana is the bearer of the Aspect of Ever-Changing Darkness. With even a little drop of the black substance from her body, she can transform any living creature into a Corrupted. Her son, Miltch, inherited it.

She also has the standard demon's abilities such as super strength, high speed, high resistance

Old Heaven
When Kristoff appeared in the Heaven after dying, Mariana greeted him and showed him the surroundings, and with time they fell in love. Later, Mariana showed him how her aspect worked by spilling a drop of black liquid on a table, which a rat drank. The rat mutated into a corrupted, causing danger to the Heaven.

The mutant rat was taken care of by the angel Gabriel. Yahveh and Lucifer pardoned the couple, allowing them to live on with their lives. Despite this, Lucifer couldn't find an answer to Mariana's aspect, at best guessing it was weird combination of her family aspects. After the incident, Kristoff was able to build a perpetual machine that would generate energy for Heaven. Their son would be born two years later. She choose the name after her husband lost a rock-papers-scissors competition with her: Miltch.

Kristoff's machine would bring a period of peace in Heaven that would be interrupted by Miguel's attack on the town. Baraquiel would later kidnap her and kill Kristoff.

War
Mariana has been captured since then. She is attached to a machine that would constantly stimulate her hands with electricity to force her to produce black matter, which would be used as fuel in Heaven. The revolution broke into Heaven's facility to recover her. They manage to evacuate her to a secret hideout, but soon Baraquiel finds them and ultimately kills her in front of her son.

Etimology
Mariana's name in Infernian runes is written:

Production Notes
At the beginning, there was not really a plan for the dark matter origin, but later, after giving Miltch the ability to create it, it was obvious that the origin of Heaven's black matter would have something to do with him so I went for one of his parents. During season 2 production, I was wondering who of Miltch's parents would be the demon, I ended up with Mariana.

Mariana was created to look like Miltch. Her son has his horns, arms and legs the same color of her. I also made her a rebel and with the same sense of humor and mood as Miltch. Also the introduction of Mariana in the story is a mirror of Miltch's

So yeah, Mariana is pretty much created to fill the needs around Miltch story arc.
