Kachina	About the Pyro Archon  Media:VO_Kachina About the Pyro Archon.ogg Media:VO ZH_Kachina About the Pyro Archon.ogg Media:VO JA_Kachina About the Pyro Archon.ogg Media:VO KO_Kachina About the Pyro Archon.ogg I never could have dreamed that the Pyro Archon herself would one day call me a hero of Natlan... She's the idol of every warrior in our land, so being recognized by her is like... *sniffle* I just get overwhelmed every time I think about it, sorry... *sniffle* Sorry, sorry! I shouldn't have started crying...
Kinich	About Mavuika  Media:VO_Kinich About Mavuika.ogg Media:VO ZH_Kinich About Mavuika.ogg Media:VO JA_Kinich About Mavuika.ogg Media:VO KO_Kinich About Mavuika.ogg For most of my life, I've been getting others to pay a price. Then, the Pyro Archon used the Ode of Resurrection to bring me back from the Night Kingdom, and suddenly I was the one paying the price... Only then did I finally understand it from both sides. To the stronger party, the "price" is a bargaining chip, and to the weaker party, it's a sign of what's at stake. What matters is whether you have the courage to make the gamble.

I really admire her, not only because she's the Pyro Archon, but because... she looks super cool when she surfs! I've challenged her to a race before, actually... Huh? You wanna know who was faster? In that case, let's race, and I'll tell you once you beat me!

Trivia[]

• Mavuika can be seen wielding Kinich's Earth Shaker Claymore.^[6]
• According to Sundjatta, Mavuika was raised as a member of the Scions of the Canopy before ascending to the position of Pyro Archon.^[7] This was hinted at previously by Mavuika's family picture, which depicts two Yumkasauri alongside her family,^[8] and her statement that that her sister Hine was an architect who helped rebuild the Scions of the Canopy tribe.^[9]
• As Archon, Mavuika worked with the six Ancient Name heroes from the time of the Cataclysm, but she had personal connections with some of them before that.^[10]
  • She grew up alongside Burkina within the Scions of the Canopy; when he received his Ancient Name while they were still children, she hinted to him her aspirations of becoming Pyro Archon.
  • A child prodigy, she visited the home of renowned warrior trainer Sundjatta and apparently convinced him to take her on as a student.
  • As an adult, she was friends with Wanjiru and had wrestling matches with her. She always won, but did lose at least once a few days before being invested with the Archon's power.

Etymology[]

• Mavuika may be named after the Māori fire deity Mahuika, who is typically depicted as female. She is the wife of Auahitūroa, the god of comets and origin of fire. She is the figure from which the hero Māui obtained the secret of making fire.
  • This is further supported by the name of her sister Hine, likely named after the goddess Mahuika's sister, Hine-nui-te-pō.
• Haborym (also called Aim or Aym in The Lesser Key of Solomon), is a Great Duke of Hell. In human form he appears as a handsome man with three heads, of which belong to a serpent, a man and a cat, whilst also riding along a viper. He carries a firebrand with him, in which it is said he uses to set cities, forests, and castles ablaze.
