Maria Daido (大道 マリア, Daidō Maria) is a researcher for Museum and Foundation X and the mother of Katsumi Daido. During NEVER's raid on Futo City, she went by the alias Maria S. Cranberry (マリア・S・クランベリー, Maria Esu Kuranberī) during the events of Kamen Rider W Forever: A to Z/The Gaia Memories of Fate, originally introduced as an International Special Investigation Research Office member. She transforms into the Cyclone Dopant (サイクロン・ドーパント, Saikuron Dōpanto).

History[]

During her research and experiments she created the Necro-Overs. In an attempt to save her son's life, Daido was made into a refined subject, but this turned him into a monster and he and the others escaped and became mercenaries.

When NEVER started to make its move in Futo City, Miki went under the alias Maria S. Cranberry and helps the Narumi Detective Office against people of Futo who inadvertently became Dopants from the T2 Gaia Memories. Philip thought from her appearance that she was his mother, Shroud, and tried to get close to her.

However when Maria calls them to meet with the 19 T2 Gaia Memories they found she reveals she lied to them about her position, and that she is actually the scientist responsible for creating NEVER. She also reveals herself as the Cyclone Dopant that had been helping the people of Futo out and saving Akiko Narumi from the Trigger Dopant. She still gives the Memories to her son and eventually abducts Philip to power the Ex Bicker.

When the Riders counterattack against Eternal, Maria betrays her son by injecting him with a serum that causes him to dissolve. But Daido then shoots Maria in the stomach and escapes with the serum. Dying, she reveals to Philip that she lied because she wanted to love him as her son but couldn't so she lied to give them hope. Honoring her request Philip agrees to pretend to be her son. Maria thanks him then passes away.

In the Director's Cut version of the film, after the credits, a woman wearing the same clothes as Maria appears, changing into an appearance similar to Shroud. This meaning of this deleted scene is never properly explained by the creators, assuming that Shroud hadn't simply been wearing these clothes by coincidence.

Personality[]

Originally, Maria was a moral individual, as both a mother and scientist. From the grief she felt over Katsumi's death though, Maria became obsessed with reviving her son, collaborating with the villainous Foundation X to complete her research. In her single-minded pursuit, she would go as far as to enlist Katsumi into NEVER, turning him into a ruthless mercenary in the process.

With guilt overriding her sanity, Maria continued to assist Katsumi in any way possible, despite his increasing psychopathic behavior. Deep down however, a portion of her moral compass remained, feeling conflicted at what she was planning to do. Ultimately, her interaction with Philip allowed Maria to recognize her mistakes, attempting to stop Katsumi before dying.
