Character history

According to the game's lore, the new heroine of the Apex Legends story, Siomara 'Mara' Contresas, was born on the ice planet Pagos and raised by a single mother. Mara received a gift in the form of a sniper rifle in her early childhood, and her curiosity allowed her to master the useful skills of a hunter and learn about the world around her. Mara's mother Zenia often gave her the Encyclopedia of the Outlands, which Shiomara learned from A to Z.

At 18, Mara's curiosity led her to discover a prison ship from the planet Gaia, the Vantage. Despite Zenia's prohibitions to explore this place, Shiomara still did what she wanted and through this realized that she had lived a lie all her life. In fact, Siomara's mother was not born on Pagos, but was sent there on a prison ship to serve her sentence. During transportation, the ship was attacked by prisoners and because of this lost control and fell into a crevice. When Mara got into trouble staying aboard the ship, the bat Shiomara rescued flew up with a whistle from her owner and called for Zenia's help. The latter reached the place where Mara was at the site of the shipwreck under the snow, but due to the fact that Mara received serious injuries, they could not cope with the illness on their own. Zenia had to send a distress signal to save her daughter and as a result, she lost her freedom for the second time.
