Maqi is Ari and Jamayeda's son. When he was born, he had an ailment similar to autism as well as the inability to speak. This caused Ari to plead for the Oracle's help, but the Oracle refused to help, saying that it was a small matter and not the concern of Kandrakar, for the concern of Kandrakar is that of the universe. This angered Ari and also made Ari attempt the impossible in his dimension; capture a banshee. He had succeeded at this task and even captured the most powerful of the banshees, Yua. However, Yua was unable to grant Ari's true wish, and so he decided to challenge the power of Kandrakar by using his banshee.
