 This article is about a villain-turned-ally in Power Rangers Ninja Storm.
|
- "You didn't think we really went bad?. We were just pretending."
- ―Marah revealing to a morphed Cam that she and Kapri only pretended to rejoin Lothor.[src]
Marah was one of Lothor's nieces by marriage and is the sister of Kapri. Like her sister, she was very ditsy and fashion conscious. She is bee-themed.
History[]
Ninja Storm[]
She was a decent fighter, as her powers were teleportation, energy projection, combat techniques, shielding, flight, clothing transformation, and weapon-hand extension.
Marah constantly annoyed her uncle, often failing him. Marah and Kapri constantly tried to prove to their uncle that they were evil enough to be in his army, and frequently showed up each other and the other generals in order to do so.
Marah's only real friend throughout the series was Beevil, who also resembled her, in certain ways.
One time, she pretended to turn against Lothor and to the side of good, and tricked Dustin Brooks into believing this too.
Marah briefly had her own giant robot to command, which resembled a giant Beevil that was repainted pink, instead of red. It was destroyed during its one time use.
Marah, along with Kapri, joined Vexacus and plotted to overthrow her uncle, pretending to be masterminds by hiding their ignorance. This ended up being a ruse and part of Lothor's plan to rid himself of his generals.
Lothor double crossed Marah and left her and Kapri on his exploding ship. She and Kapri left the ship with the Thunder Rangers and Cam. Like her sister, Marah ended up joining the Wind Ninja Acadamy. Cam was shocked when he saw her and Kapri arrive. Marah was uncomfortable with the Ninja outfits, thinking they made her butt look big, later arguing with Kapri, when she remarked that it wasn't as big as her head. Marah wore an orange ninja suit.
Dino Thunder[]
Marah and Kapri as students in the Wind Academy.
Marah and Kapri were shocked when Lothor reemerged, especially with the Wind Ninjas on his side. After Lothor captured the ninja students, Marah and Kapri agreed to rejoin his army. The girls later outsmarted Lothor and helped the Rangers free the ninja students.
Personality[]
Unlike most of the villains in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, Marah is a happy-go-lucky woman that's very easy going and is always seen cheerful, like her sister Kapri. She isn't very successful at evil schemes, but unlike her sister, she is very kind to her allies (and secretly, to the Rangers) and is very good friends with Choobo. Also unlike her sister Kapri, she is shown to have a good side with the Rangers, as shown in the episode "All About Beevil" when she becomes good friends with the Yellow Ranger, and deeply regrets having to betray him. However, this is also obviously because she has a crush on him. In that same episode, after Dustin leaves to help the Thunder Rangers, Marah states to herself that she likes being good. The fact that she said this when nobody was around could mean that her statement was genuine, which is further proven by her and Kapri's redemption in the series finale.

Design[]

Etymology[]
In Indonesian and Malay, Marah means angry, mad, and upset, which is quite ironic because of her easygoing personality.
Notes[]
- In the first part of the three-part episode "The Samurai's Journey", its revealed that Marah doesn't know the term "sarcasm".
- In spite of her role in the series, in the episode "Eye of the Storm", it shows that she is afraid of being laughed at by others.
- Katrina Devine also played Cassidy Cornell in Power Rangers: Dino Thunder. During the crossover episode, both characters met, and commented on their similarities (though both insisted that they were the better looking one).
- Marah might have had a divided heart, as in the episode "All About Beevil" when Lothor replaces Marah with Beevil, one of Marah's friends, she decided to work with the Ninja Rangers, but her mind does support Lothor, considered that he is her uncle, until she saw how terrible her uncle was. This was touched on again in the final part of the two-part series finale episode "Storm Before the Calm" as he left her and Kapri on the ship to be destroyed.
- Her and her sister's actresses share the same first name (Katrina).
- Marah's Pink Wind Ranger suit (despite being a dream-exclusive suit) is simply a pink-version of the Blue Wind Ranger's suit.
