Mara and Overlord?I mean, they both feature purple skin, elf-like traits and magic powers. Call me crazy, I've always hypothized that Mara is Overlord's secret daughter. I smell a great fan fiction.

I believe Overlord, Mara and the people in The Zombie Master episode and the Emerald Knight woman are the same race of people. Klone also looks like he's from the same people but with different skin & hair colour. Amber may also be of the same people with different skin and hair colour as well. Like humans, I imagine skin colour depends on ancestry but they are still of the same genetic "type".
Which leads me to believe there are 3 different types of people living on Sagar. Mara and Klone's "high elf" style people, the Trobbits, and the "sprites" people: the Desert Sprites, Desert Dwellers, the fairy girl from "Tree of Evil", etc.

Yeah, your insight is pretty much right. Both Mara and Klone must belong to a "common" D.N.A. pattern, but their genetic phenotypes are slightly different each from other ---> like Caucasians and Mexicans (for instance).
How would you describe the "Sprite" people, by the way?

The "sprite" people are shorter and more delicate build than Mara's people but are taller than Trobbits. If I remember correctly, their skin tone is more a caucasian human colour (I haven't watched the episodes in a while! Getting forgetful...).

Uh, I'm wondering if the Trobbits are a stand-alone race, anyway.

Although I'm not really a fan of the idea of Mara and the overlord being related, something to consider is that perhaps Mara is the overlord's mother rather than his daughter :-o going by City of the Ancient Ones, Mara is quite old - old enough to have been knocking around Tamborion back in its heyday. Amber was at least frozen in ice and dumped in a cave for who knows how long, but ar far as we know Mara was active the entire time.

Also there are some significant differences between the desert dwellers and the desert sprites - one are little elf guys with big moustaches while the other have a dog/cat like face and ears (can't remember which ones which at the moment) - maybe we should start a thread about all the different races of Sagar?
