Lucia Mar

The show's first star: a girl of about thirteen in a yellow soccer jersey with rottweilers Cici and Gustavo 3, whose dogs shred a cow-sized spider on the premiere (ch. 14). By the second floor she has silver armour, a personal shield, four crawler-killer skulls the show does not explain (ch. 39), and a dog that mauled Odette's producer (ch. 29). Zev says Carl's appearance fee now equals hers (ch. 44). Carl notices that her dogs carry no skulls or stars because they are pets (ch. 39); Mordecai cites them when he explains that crawler pets are a different sort of thing, and that had Donut stayed a pet Carl could have bonded another (ch. 47).

On the recap: a Lajabless — half the day a beauty, half a skull, one goat leg — and a Black Inquisitor General (ch. 7). At the Desperado Club she froze the room, stole tequila, let her dogs maul the pet room and brained an Elite gnoll with a mace (ch. 15). The recap invents a feud with Donut and she accepts it on an arena show: 'Cici and Gus will tear this puta apart' (ch. 21). First on the leaderboard with a bounty of 1,000,000 (epilogue).

First on the leaderboard all floor (ch. 3, ch. 25), level 35 by ch. 24, banned from the Desperado Club for life (ch. 8); a necklace of monster tongues stolen by her own dog (ch. 8); a room of five stairwells found before anyone (ch. 13); a mantaur beaten to death against a train, and one rottweiler suddenly twice the size of the other (ch. 29). 'Do you think that means this Lucia kid isn't as crazy as she looks?'

The recap shows her murder Ifechi: a boy thrown at Florin, an insult to her father nobody spoke, a conversation with someone who is not there, and a Rubber spell cast on Ifechi's head so that Florin's shotgun kills his own lover; she signs confessions for the two admins she has killed and stays in the dungeon (ch. 4, ch. 19). Mordecai: the spell has a vulnerability and the show has stopped editing it out — 'They might want her killed.' She rolls a frozen pyramid, works with a group, is shown sobbing alone after Gustavo kills a party (ch. 20), and is everyone's favourite feed (ch. 18). Carl decides her tears were manufactured for the same reason a puppy was made fragile (ch. 29). First on the board until the last night; second after.

She kills a stegosaurus through her dog and eats its eye on the recap (ch. 21); she is mayor of Alucarda, having killed R'aggah (ch. 29); she has fought Donut (ch. 30). In her saferoom she punches herself in the face and cheats the room with ejection traps (ch. 34), takes a stuffed decoy for Donut and teleports into Vrah (ch. 35), rips a mayor in half, orders milk, talks to someone named Alexandro, loses Cici — 'They all must die' (ch. 37). At the party she is a frightened kid against a wall (ch. 67), then a girl named Jill who wants her mother, then the swagger again: 'She killed Cici. I kill her' (ch. 71). She hands out tequila ringed by hunters (ch. 72), cowers behind Florin (ch. 75), and teleports out before the boss fight begins (ch. 77).

Buys every teleport trap and all the alcohol (ch. 57); the Battle of Beijing — no cards, an empty hand, Fang and his wife killed for a key — and then five Tier 3 doggie doors dropped at the stairs because Florin asked (ch. 63). Friendly, then not: a score to settle with Donut on the next floor (ch. 63).

Drinking at the Possum Envy on the Reaver border (ch. 18), not answering messages, a dog that ate Mukta (ch. 28), unaffiliated and hiding (ch. 39). She walks into the Nest with a dog and cleaves Toyotomi, Bomo and the mages in half (ch. 70, ch. 71), crawls the ceiling of the Donkey Kong ramp — 'Give me your dinosaur […] It is justice I seek' — and, tumbling down tangled with a crab, 'I don’t want to play anymore' (ch. 71). Conscripted, she spits burning tequila at her own face, sits with 200 player-killer skulls and a child's perfume, and speaks as Diah: the dark, the cold, a river through the room, 'We take turns' (ch. 72). With Gustavo dead she stands unflinching in a gale tower's line: 'Now the Eulogist has another ally in the dungeon, and now you can't kill me. Not unless you want all the children of Earth to die' (ch. 72). Zev: 120,000 children in one wing, and if she goes they all go (ch. 73). Two nets on the Nest, one powered by the towers (ch. 75). She sobs on the ground at the end with Florin, Jurgen and Imani urging a deal, and parties with Florin into the stairwell (ch. 85, ch. 86).
