Mavra is Morgana le Fay by grandPanjandrum (CD Spoilers)
escapedpsycho:
Everyone assumes Mavra is a weak witch. But she is Council material, and we've yet to see a her throw a real punch. I like this theory, it would tie into the Athurian legend nicely as well.
madness:
There is no good reason to think that Mavra has shown anywhere close to her true levels of power and skill.
Ms Duck:
im a very big Mavra cheerleader around here.. but i dont think shes strong enought to be Mab's mysterious long lost sister. Mavra's not even an elder, most likely. From what Eb implied, she's the Black Court's 007, not a boss.

During the first attack Harry hadnt even been officially hired. Then at the party, when she learns of the attack, Justine says something like, 'I thought you didnt have to worry about Mavra'. Then, during the attack outside the movie studio, the MavraPuppet talks about Thomas as 'the one who betrayed us.' I think your idea she was out to get Harry here is incorrect, but its really a side note to a really interesting theory. And I keep finding a bunch of Round Table references lately as I'm rereading the books...its kinda funny, if you're right, that Morgana/Mavra traded her own knife to the Leanansidhe/Lady of the Lake. Didnt excalibur come from her? So they swapped their own weapons?

The Leanansidhe isn't the Lady of the Lake, she's a muse. She inspires poets and artists and the like in return for love and devotion and then they go mad. Or die. Probably both.

mmm the leanansidhe may very well be the lady of the lake, its one of her old names. :)
in the real world, its because legends and stories tend to change. in the Jim verse, its probably a mantle thing.
