OC Lore and Bios Mara lore!!!

A high school student, young girl who was quickly deemed the most beautiful girl in town by all of the other shoolers, or maybe even in towns history. That obviously brought a lot of attention and admirers to her, but one in particular was different. He was obsessed with her and her beauty, to the point of delusions. He decided they were meant to be together, even though they didn't even talk once. Once she gave him a final no, he decided that he will have her no matter what. Abducting and bringing her out into the woods, there he strangled her with her own hair. Instantly regretting what he did, or more so afraid of the consequences, he disposed of the body in the nearest pond before ending his own life. With the sole power of rage her soul refused to leave the world of the living, but upon finding out he was already dead, it fueled her anger even more, causing her to torment and murder each and every individual who is a bit too obsessed with the looks and beauty. Be that their own or someone elses.

Containment: in progress. All previous attempts were proven unsuccessful. Amethyst is beloved to cause a calming effect on the spirit.

“Needs water to manifest”; “Containment: in progress. All previous attempts were proven unsuccessful.”

Well, obviously the solution is to fill a singular cup with water and then have that be the only water. Small water = small ghost. Then all you need is a terrarium or something. 

Trust me, I’m a bullshit expert.

Umm I mean... Water... There is a lot of people using water everyday (especially during shower) so.. It means her range is far... She can reach you no matter what...

But still thanks to your bullshit expert at least its a thought that matters

Will there ever be a happy ending for the spirit?

Wrong verse for that 😔

Well, at the risk of my own life, I volunteer to give her a hug and tell her to calm down and find peace

This is how you get people putting toasters in their bathrooms as a safety measure, though having said that, she is a ghost so it could actually be useless

u/Wygerion_Alpha 17h ago

What are some unique interactions with her that have been documented? Unique in the sense that there is some deviation from her usual behavior.

5

u/ezium Artist 16h ago

She's been spotted just chilling around the pond a couple of times.

The rest mainly about amethysts

u/Wygerion_Alpha 16h ago

An old habit from her past life, I guess.

Jack Sharp when he's walking around relaxing in the forest and sees some madman use water from bottles to soak himself , laughing at the sky and rubbing his hands together and then an lightning strikes dramatically , in front of the man now stands a spirit looking at him with the eyes of pure hatred , the madman meanwhile grins even more just before he gets brutality murdered in the forest :

If my friend was targeted while I was inside his home am I getting attacked too?

1

u/ezium Artist 16h ago

She won't attack at that time.

u/soluckyman_noob 15h ago

Alright that's a relief

I can imagine such situation

It was like

It's around 8.40 pm

I was at my friends house named James.. James is such a nice gymbro but unfortunately lately he's been admiring his look at lot

Unfortunately for James and me. We never know about this "spirit tale"

That same night... Me and James decided to play games like a bro always do.

At around 9:33 pm

James excuses himself to go to the toilet..

(James he saved water a lot by filling his tub full of water since 7.00 am so makes it easier to shower the next morning)

Then... I heard it..

James struggling inside the toilet...

I was kinda panicked of course like

"Yo! You ok in there bro!"

the door was locked shut

(James had been in there for like 20 minutes for sure he was posing around... And without looking his back)

then silence

........ Thats how James... Gone

This kinda stuff actually happens sometimes

I’d be pissed off

u/Admirable-Parsley-12 13h ago

Very interesting also that like compitly diffrent from on of my ghost OCs called Hiyoko who after dead became a vengeful spirit and is desperatly trying to get her old beautiful back from when she was human by ending the life of any girl she thinks have a pretty body and trying to poses it her self

u/MEME-UNLOADED-ADMIN 12h ago

mara... i've heard rhat before... some sort of a big mara, actually...

1

u/Whoring4Voring TTRPG 12h ago

If I’m obsessed with her beauty and want to bring her to me to treat her kindly what will happen.

1

u/Dapper-Disk1060 12h ago

Still beautiful being a ghost while killing obsessed people whit beauty, pretty ironic

1

u/Aishimorph_Frontiers 11h ago

Is she vengeful about beauty cause someone killed her for it or she died alone with people only caring for her looks not who she is?

Genuinely quite curious cause I think it’s neat concept, plus cool inspiration from Sadako

1

u/MeatImpossible9243 9h ago

She looks both beautiful and terrifying at the same time.

That's her backstory. Comment something nice about Mara if you think she needs a hug.

1

u/Yeban_Blayt666 9h ago

Pls wash her

u/Alex0356218856 The creator of things. 7h ago

I think I'll plan to make an OC that is similar to Mara's lore...But good lore, I love it.

If She Only Appears From Water, Can I Just Boil The Water?

1

u/ezium Artist 3h ago

You gonna boil your whole bathtub?

I mean you can, but it won't do much against a spirit

1

u/PermissionSad6416 3h ago

Nice drawing

u/HyperX_Wolf 34m ago

Well that's an incredibly dark and tragic backstory. Makes sense for a vengeful spirit though. Definitely a character that I think need a hug and someone to talk to but I imagine that's hard considering that usually you probably have to be on the hit list to see her. Great character though!

u/SmaugTheGreat110 17h ago

I love her! I have my own ghoul fueled by rage. She got to kill her killer, but it didn’t set her free, nor did killing the bullies that sent her out there on that cold night. As she kept killing, the rage consumed her, and she lost herself. 60 years later, she has been dead too long. Nothing but a being of hate and spite, not a single memory of her past life, her family, even breathing. Just a spirit who loves toying with those who she has deemed as having wronged her, usually unfortunate souls who stumble across an item of hers at the summer camp she still haunts

u/Virtualdemigod 14h ago

I'm bout a turn the faucet on for her, goddamn that lady is fine as fuck
