Masha is a character from Barbie in the Nutcracker. She lives in Parthenia and is asked by Major Mint to care for the Gingerbread Boy and the Peppermint Girl, as he doesn't trust Clara and Nutcracker.
Story[]
Masha appears when Clara and the Nutcracker are taken in for questioning ("come, children," Major Mint says, gesturing to her, "Masha will take care of you"). It's probably safe to assume she's a maternal figure or childminder amongst the villagers, since the children are supposed to stay with her until Clara gets back. Masha never speaks and doesn't make any other appearances.
Physical Appearance[]
Masha is one of the older villagers, dressing in a way which is slightly different to that of the other women. Physically, she resembles the maid that works at the the Drosselmayer home.
Trivia[]
- In Russian, Masha (Маша) is a version of the name Maria. The story that Barbie in the Nutcracker is based on is The Nutcracker and the Mouse King by Prussian author E. T. A. Hoffmann.
