Mab (Dark Parables)

Mab appeared in the ninth Dark Parables game of 2015 called Queen of Sands. Mab, also known Queen of Sands, is a major character and the antagonist in the ninth Dark Parables game, Queen of Sands, as well as the protagonist of its bonus game, The Seven Ravens.

The most powerful of the Sandmen, Mab's long imprisonment by Hubert de Montafleur corrupted her and lead to her desire for revenge on Montafleur.

Mab is based on Queen Mab from the Shakespearean play Romeo and Juliet, and the mythological figure of the Sandman. She is also based on the fairy who cursed the prince from Beauty and the Beast and the daughter from The Seven Ravens.

Mab has floor-length silver (originally dark blonde) hair which is worn in one long braid. Her hair is easily as long as Rapunzel's, and can even be worn wrapped around herself (as when she is in her Old Woman form). Her eyes are pale violet but can take on a different hue when glowing with her magical powers. Mab wears a dark purple dress with gold trimming and asymmetrical sleeves.

Mab was once a kind Sandman but after Hubert de Montafleur imprisoned her in a bottle, her rage and desire for revenge turned her evil.
