Biography[]
800 years ago, the Lava Minions were summoned by Ucumu to cause chaos and destruction on earth after Punguari inadvertently released him in her desire to become a full-fledged god. However, Ucumu's tyranny had come to an abrupt end as Sisiki and Chipiri sacrificed themselves to seal him back into the underworld, alongside his entire army.
800 years later, Ronnie Anne, after defying her mother, Maria, decided to skateboard down the mountain Punguari transformed into. However, a necklace she bought earlier causes Punguari to wake up from her petrified state (as it contained a gem that was part of the Mask of Many Faces). Punguari disguises herself as a 12-year-old girl named Shara, and manages to convince Ronnie Anne to help her find the Mask of Many Faces.
After finding the mask in a concealed artifact room at a museum, Punguari reveals her true form, and proceeds to trap, Ronnie Anne, heartbroken over the fact that her new best friend was a liar that just used her, in the artifact room. With the Mask of Many Faces, Punguari transforms herself into a god, and uses her new powers to create her own palace so she can party, causing the Earth to crack open and inadvertently unleashing Ucumu into the world once more.
As Punguari redeemed herself and helps the Casagrandes to save Mexico, Ucumu eventually emerges from the depths and summons his army of Lava Minions for a second invasion through the entire world. During the final battle, the Casagrandes manage to launch the giant chancla at Ucumu's face, causing the skin on his body to burn off, revealing his skeletal structure. Now in a weakened state, Ronnie Anne uses Punguari's magic staff to disintegrate Ucumu, reducing his body to ashes that fall into the very cracks he emerged from. Afterwards, Punguari proceeds to use her magic to destroy her temple, to which she uses the pieces to seal the cracks permanently, ensuring that Ucumu will never rise again.
Following Ucumu's second defeat, his entire army of Lava Minions petrify into statues, ending Ucumu's reign of terror for good.
