The Mana Goddess, also known as the Goddess of Mana, is a recurring character in the Mana series.

Background

The highest and most holy deity of any world in which the series takes place, the Mana Goddess is oft positioned as the benevolent, yet stalwart creator god and maker of all things living, Her powers so vast as to defy description by any language. Embraced by good and pursued by evil, She exists as the very essence of the Mana Tree, from which all life and spiritual force are said to emanate. She is even rumored to grant the fondest wishes of one's heart and soul should She be approached with pure intent.

Yet in spite of possessing such far-reaching, world-shaping power, the Mana Goddess is not a perfect deity by definition. She often enters the world as a mortal regardless of whether She is a spirit or not; and so, a common plot in each world involves the selection and/or appointment of a chosen champion to ensure Her will is done and Her consciousness kept safe from all harm; as She goes, so goes the world She oversees. Any significant presence of darkness therefore gravely weakens the Goddess so that if She falls, Her world falls with Her. However, a female of any tribe closely linked to the Mana Tree may succeed Her to prevent the world's collapse. This often comes at the cost of the woman's mortal life and body, with the added effect of mana power becoming dormant until the new Goddess matures, at which point the cycle may repeat.

History

Heroes of Mana

“The creator of Fa'Diel who now inhabits the Mana Tree. In ancient times, she used the Sword of Mana to defeat the benevodons who wreaked havoc on the world, then sealed them into eight stones. She then metamorphosed into the Mana Tree, and has since watched over the world from Sanctuary.”
Notebook

Echoes of Mana

“The alter ego of the Mana Tree that serves as the source of life. She seeks the Mana Sword in order to restore the world that has been lost.”
Square Enix Official Website

Serving as the player's main guide through the early story, the Mana Goddess first appears as the benevolent presence that awakens the twins Quilto and Quilta from their nightmare. She seeks to restore the Echoes, memory fragments of worlds past and present, to rebuild what is now a wasteland devoid of life and memory. The twins have the unique ability to travel into worlds borne of Her sacred fruit. As they progress through the Echoes, the Goddess sends the heroes to resolve ever more complex corruptions of each world they visit as they seek out the Mana Sword.
