Maya's power is an as-yet unnamed ability to kill people in her vicinity.
Characters
- Maya is the only character known to have this ability.
Limits
When distressed, Maya secretes a black liquid from her eyes. People near her when she manifests these symptoms rapidly become ill and die, also secreting black liquid from their eyes. According to Maya y Alejandro the blood of Maya's victims is also turned into black liquid. The maximum range of this effect is not yet known, but seems to be substantial as she is able to kill all of the guests at a wedding reception in Four Months Ago....
Maya appears to have little, if any, control over her ability. This power seems to manifest when she is in fear or grief, or becomes emotional.
Alejandro's ability can negate this power and even reverse the effects on victims if applied quickly enough.
Memorable Quotes
"It is a new illness. You fear it will spread. You fear... yourself. What you carry inside you is black. Enough to kill the devil. No one can heal you. You are cursed."
Notes
- Maya's ability is referred to in several updates on Hana's website.
- In the episode commentary for The Kindness of Strangers, Tim Kring says that Maya emits "a plague ... that makes people sick".
