マリア・カスタード

One of the Four Witches of Kathtom who Rance saved during the events of Rance II. Maria was an apprentice under Ragishss, specializing in water magic. However, she lost almost all of her magical abilities after Rance took her virginity. Despite this, she compensates with her technical skills.

She's the brains behind the Tulip series of weapons and is keenly interested in firearms development. Her tireless work has propelled Kathtom to the forefront of technology on the Continent, with her inventions playing pivotal roles in conflicts such as Leazas' liberation.

She is also a close friend to her fellow witch, Masou Shizuka, as they were studying magic together and being taught by the same person, Ragishss.
