Sonarue Maywood

About Sonarue Maywood

Sonarue Maywood, called Sona, is the former princess of Lisblanc. She watched her mother being killed and kept her strength and her positivity anyway. She leaves her hometown to travel with Peru, choosing his guilt-ridden journey as the place her own strength belongs.

Appearance

Sona carries herself with a princess's bearing in travelling clothes, and she stands beside Peru at the centre of the second key visual. Her design balances warmth with resolve: she looks like the person least likely to flinch in any room she enters.

Personality

Sona is strong in the specific way the series values: she has seen the worst thing and stayed kind. The official character introduction stresses that she has not lost her positivity. Around Peru, whose guilt never lets him rest, her steadiness becomes a kind of leadership of its own.

Background & Story

Sona was a princess of Lisblanc, and she witnessed her mother's death in front of her. Rather than staying behind walls, she decides to leave her hometown and join Peru's journey to destroy Gaston's masks, putting her strength at the service of his mission and becoming one of the companions he learns to trust.

Powers & Abilities

• A princess's resolve: Sona's strength is will. She travels into danger by choice, holds her nerve in mask battles she did not have to attend, and keeps the group's heart beating when Peru's guilt threatens to swallow it.
• The group's moral centre: Peru punishes himself and Mok is trapped by his mask. Sona is the one who can still imagine a future after the journey, and that perspective changes the people around her.

Key Relationships

• Peru d'Arrest: The mask hunter she chooses to follow. Sona believes in Peru's mission and, just as importantly, in Peru, on days when he cannot believe in himself.
• Mok Sharib: Her fellow traveller. The three of them form the core party of the series, and Sona is often the balance between Peru's guilt and Mok's desperation.
