Melusine - Coca - El Cucuy - Cuca
The later three links are actually things that you can find and research about in the real world. The etymology of their names is similar, while both Cuca and El Cucuy play similar roles in their narrative, Coca only being given a name in the Iberian Peninsula convinced me that it would be possible to connect the the first two to the dragon by way of them being legends from the same land, grounding the transition of identities on the concept of fairies being affected by their names.
Like Vortigern being made to be Oberon because the fairies claimed he was.
Melusine became the dragon Coca, because that was the name she received by humans when she fled after her curse was active.
El Cucuy was a specter, the leftovers of Coca's mind after her body was killed by St. George, which eventually evolved into the Witch, Cuca, when her legend arrived on the New World.
Really, this sheet could have been 3 separate ones if I didn't bother linking them all together. In fact, if she were in another class, she might as well be another person entirely because of how fairies and names work.
She's an actress with a history of playing different roles.
