Masks of Aygrima is a trilogy of young adult fantasy novels written by E.C. Blake. The Trilogy consists of Masks (2013), Shadows (2014), and Faces (2015). They take place in a kingdom called Aygrima which is ruled by an Autarch who requires all people over 15 to wear masks that reflect their jobs. In this world some people (known as gifted) have the ability to see and use magic which has many uses indicated by it's color. The main character is a young girl named Mara Holdfast who, unlike all other known people can see and use all kinds of magic. On her 15th birthday when she is masked the mask shatters and she is sent off to a large slave mine. On the way her wagon is destroyed and she and the other passengers are taken to The Secret City, home of The Unmasked Army, a group of rebels who wish to overthrow the Autarch.Compare to Utopia 58, a similar dystopian story in which citizens are forced to wear masks, but more post-apocalyptic. | |

Can't Kill You, Still Need You: The Autarch decides to not kill Mara in order to make her the next Mistress of Magic. In reality he wants to take over her body to extend his lifespan. The Lady of Pain and Fire does the same thing when she confronts her in the Magic Mine. | |

Villainous Lineage: The Autarch's father was apparently just as cruel as his son. Not exactly evil but the infamous gift that is known to be present in Aygrima's most infamous monsters is said to run in Mara's family, though it hasn't been seen in generations. | |

| Masks of Aygrima / int_173909 | comment |
Brainwashed and Crazy: The Autarch develops new masks to make citizens more submissive and to make it easier to take magic from them. The Lady of Pain and Fire uses magic to control the villagers to fight for her against The Unmasked Army. Later The Autarch does this to citizens of Tamita who were masked n the last three years in order for them to fight The Unmasked Army. | |

| Masks of Aygrima / int_32da91b8 | comment |
Out of Focus: Simona and Captain Gramm are rarely mentioned after their introduction, they even get an off-screen death and aren't mourned much by Mara. Captain March gets overshadowed by Antril and Chell in Faces, and Hayram shows up about four times over the course of the last two books. Alita shows up once in Shadows for about one paragraph and is mentioned once in Faces, Prella and Kirika are mentioned twice in Faces. | |

The Last of These Is Not Like the Others: While the first two books had images of important masks on their covers, the cover of Faces features a woman with the bottom half of her mask crumbled away, this image never appears in the book, the closest we get is the last Sun Guard who attacks Mara who has a similarly crumbled mask but is male. | |

Bittersweet Ending In Shadows, The Secret City is destroyed, but the Unmasked Army is saved by the Lady of Pain and Fire. In Faces, Edrik is made king and Mara is banished from Aygrima and leaves for Korellia with Whiteblaze and Keltan. It's implied that her desire to suck magic from people is reduced but also that Chell will eventually ask her to help with his war against Stonefell. | |

Mirror Character: The Child Guard turn out to be this to the unmasked slaves. They are the highest and lowest position a person their age could be in Aygrima respectively. Despite this they're both uses as sources of magic for The Autarch, with the slaves literally mining it, and the Child Guard being slowly drained of it to sustain his life. The effects of this on their bodies are also very similar, with both groups being sickly and weak as a result of The Autarch's exploitation of them. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Keltan, Hayram, Chell, Antril, Edrik, and a handful of the best fighters in The Unmasked Army are able to fight off a much larger group of Elite Mooks and were winning before the Mooks gave up. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Masks of Aygrima / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Kirika, and Grute are more than likely as agressive as they are because of their Abusive Parents. | |

Outside-Context Problem: The Korellian Sailors and the Autarch are this to each other because neither of them even knew about each other before they started fighting. | |

Action Girl: Mara is a magic using one, Illina, and Tishka are Badass Normals from the first book. The Lady of Pain and Fire was this during the first revolution, and she proves to still be this when she allies herself with The Unmasked Army. | |

Gambit Pileup | |

Gambit Pileup: The Final Battle is a pileup of Mara's gambit to kill The Autarch, his gambit to take over her body, The Lady of Pain and Fire's plan to do the same, and Greff's plan to kill The Autarch. Ultimately Mara is the only one alive at the end. | |

Hate Sink | |
| Masks of Aygrima / int_e5fd8bc2 | comment |
Hate Sink: Grute is the only boy in the prison Mara is put into. He acts lecherously towards the girls, nearly raping one of them and taking joy in their discomfort. He later kidnaps Mara, planning on taking her to a slave mine to trade for better treatment. Finally dying while trying to rape Mara, he's a perfect example of the kind of people that have no place even in the Autarch's brainwashed kingdom. | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |
| Masks of Aygrima / int_e7b0229a | comment |
Laser-Guided Amnesia: An interesting but Justified example of type III. The Lady of Pain and Fire uses magic to block Mara's memories of the day of their attack on the new magic mine, telling her that she went insane and almost killed everyone, and separates her from everybody in order to convince her of this. | |

Plagued by Nightmares | |
| Masks of Aygrima / int_e853bdb8 | comment |
Plagued by Nightmares: Anyone who has Mara's special Gift suffers nightmares and hallucinations of people who have died near them and that they have killed. This is justified since Magic is part of a persons soul and this Gift allows the user to absorb magic and by extension part of people's souls which causes the problems. | |

Greff, the Child Guard that Mara befriends, later allows her to impersonate him to break into The Palace, He later attacks The Autarch, distracting him long enough for Mara to kill him, though he dies in the process. | |
