Edit: Is the Mara's species really 'None'? Wouldn't it be 'Unkown'? Obviously it has to belong to a species, even if it's the last of it's kind. - The Doctor
- It's not the last of its kind, it's the only of its kind: a one-off, unique creation. --Paul A 02:56, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Is it though? In Kinda Tegan also encounters two old figures in the Dark Inner Place who are playing a kind of chess with each other. Where they not also Mara? Is there only one Mara or or are there several? Actually, you know, I don't know why I'm asking this as its only a fiction. Although I have to say both the Mara Doctor Who stories are particularly chilling, the ending of the second one being especially bleak. Both stories are full of Eastern religious references and ideas. Powerful stories! ThePeg 20:42, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Next rewrite should probably mention the brief reference in the Torchwood episode 'Small Worlds', where Captain Jack compares the creatures to the Mara, and states how the word 'nightmare' was derived from their name. --Wolfe 19:06, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
