**Nathalie Sancoeur** is a major antagonist in the French CGI animated superhero show *Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir*. She is Gabriel Agreste's personal assistant originally hired to help him and his wife Emilie find treasure. Nathalie is aware of Gabriel's supervillain life as Hawk Moth and helps him out in his quest to gain the Ladybug and Cat Miraculous to revive his comatose wife due to having romantic feelings for him, even risking her life to help him by using the broken Peacock Miraculous to become **Mayura**, despite knowing the risks.

However, Nathalie eventually turns against Gabriel in the Season 5 premier episode "Evolution" as his obsession with getting revenge on Ladybug and Cat Noir makes him abandon a chance to peacefully revive Emilie and herself without needing to get the heroes' Miraculous. She only remains staying at the Agreste mansion in order to protect Adrien from his father's increasingly controlling tendencies. In the Season 5 finale she presumably dies after getting knocked out by Monarch, but she is revived after Gabriel sacrifices himself to make a wish.

In the French version she is voiced by Nathalie Homs and in the English dub she is voiced by Sabrina Weisz.

## What Makes Her Magnificent?

* During the season 2 finale, she allowed herself to be akumatized into Catalyst, and used her powers to boost Hawk Moth's powers and allowed him to become Scarlet Moth, allowing to send out multiple akumas at once and create an army of akumatized villains to fight Ladybug and Cat Noir.
* When the heroes catch up to Hawk Moth and nearly defeat him, she used to Peacock Miraculous to create a giant Butterfly Miraculous to attack the heroes which allows Hawk Moth to escape.
* In the Shanghai special, she allowed Hawk Moth to try and steal the Prodigious by buying the sacred Cave Key from Cash.
* In "Miraculer", she suggests to Gabriel that he should use Lila's manipulation tactics to get Chloé akumatized in hopes of making her one of his allies. Nathalie uses the Peacock Miraculous to create a Lollipop Sentimonster to make Chloé watch another one of Ladybug's fights where she doesn't call for her to be Queen Bee. This angers Chloé and makes Hawk Moth nearly succeed in akumatizing her, before she manages to shake it off using her willpower. In the same episode, Mayura attempts to use the Bee Miraculous to convince Chloé to join her and Hawk Moth's side. When that fails she puts up a good fight against Queen Bee until she retreats as Queen Bee nearly took the Peacock Miraculous from her.
* In "Feast" she, under Hawk Moth's orders, travels to the Louvre Musuem as Mayura and uses her powers to release a dormant Sentimonster that was created by Master Fu many years prior to the show. This allows Hawk Moth to akumatize the Sentimonster and because of this he later learns what the Guardian of the Miraculous looks like.
* In "Ladybug" she decides to let Hawk Moth akumatize her into Catalyst once more and uses her powers so Gabriel can become Scarlet Moth again. This allows Scarlet Moth to send out multiple akumas in attempt to akumatize Marinette and her friends after she was falsely expelled from school by Lila. This only fails due to Nathalie's illness from using the broken Peacock Miraculous, and as a result Hawk Moth unknowingly got close to taking Ladybug's Miraculous.
* In the same episode, despite her dwindling health and Gabriel's warnings she uses the Peacock Miraculous to create a Sentimonster version of Ladybug which she uses to draw out Cat Noir. Mayura uses the senti-Ladybug to trick Cat Noir into thinking she is in love with him in order to distract him from her trying to take off his Miraculous. When the Senti-Ladybug redeems herself and turns against Mayura, the latter disposes of the former.
* In the Season 3 finale Nathalie unplugs Chloé's Bee Signal, a light she uses in hopes of getting Ladybug's attention so she can give her the Bee Miraculous, which Hawk Moth takes advantage off as he manipulates Chloé into becoming his ally. As Mayura she helps Hawk Moth fight Master Fu as Jade Turtle, even creating the same Butterfly sentimonster as the one she created in the season 2 finale to break Jade Turtle's Shell-ter. After Master Fu names Ladybug the next Guardian of the Miraculous and gives her ownership of the Miracle Box, Nathalie reveals that she stole Fu's tablet which has the translated version of the Miraculous Spellbook on it, which allows Gabriel to mend the broken Peacock Miraculous.
* In the New York special she creates a Sentimonster version of Robostus to dissuade Ladybug and Cat Noir while Hawk Moth is in New York, and upon learning that the heroic duo are in fact also in New York she destroys the sentimonster.
* In "Optigami" it is revealed she created a Sentimonster named Optigami, which also works as a camera, to keep track of all of Ladybug's temporary allies, whose identities have been revealed courtesy of Chloé as Miracle Queen in the Season 3 finale, in their civillian lives in hopes of learning Ladybug's true identity. When this was unsuccessful, she and Gabriel form a new plan to learn Ladybug's secret identity by having Optigami inhabit a Miraculous and in turn follow Ladybug back to her house. This ultimately only failed because of sheer luck on Ladybug's side.
* In the Season 5 episode "Evolution", after Gabriel gets his hands his hands on all of the Miraculous in the Chinese Miracle Box, save for Ladybug and Cat Noir's, due to making a deal with his nephew Félix, Nathalie suggests using the Rabbit Miraculous, which has the power to travel through time, to give his past self a USB drive with the information on how to fix the broken Peacock Miraculous, which in turn w,ould save Emilie from going into a coma after she used it. When Gabriel doesn't go through with it and instead chooses to follow his desires to beat Ladybug and Cat Noir, Nathalie chews him out for choosing his petty grudge over reviving both her and Emilie, and states that she will no longer help him and that he deserves help from no one. She still decides to stay at the Agreste, but only to protect Adrien from Gabriel.
* In "Passion", when she realises that Gabriel's degrading morals are going against what Emilie wanted, she requests Gabriel to akumatize her, while having the secret intentions of wanting to gain Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous for herself so she can make a wish using them before Gabriel can. Per her wishes, she gets Akumatized into Safari, a wildlife ranger themed villain with the power to have perfect accuracy in her attacks, and is transferred the powers of the Goat Miraculous, also at her request, which she uses to create a box of gadgets that have the power of several other Miraculous. She uses the Fox Miraculous' power to create an illusion of Timetagger, a previous time-travelling villain, to draw out Ladybug and Cat Noir, and then she uses the Bee Miraculous' power to shoot multiple magic bolts, one of which manages to hit Ladybug and stun her. She then fires several more bullets in order to hit Cat Noir, causing him to go underground into the sewers and detransform back into Adrien, after which Safari's bullets lose him as she technically lost her target. Marinette and Adrien swap their Miraculous and become Lady Noire and Mister Bug to further protect themselves from Safari bullet's, since they were targetting specifically Ladybug and Cat Noir. After this Safari continues to put up a very good fight against the heroes, which is helped with her ability to never miss her opponents, before Mister Bug eventually realises where her akumatized object is and breaks it, defeating Safari.
* Throughout the rest of the fifth season, Nathalie would further encourage Adrien to disobey his father's orders as he becomes more and more controlling, such as allowing Marinette to enter the Agreste mansion to see Adrien in "Protection" and telling him he is to free to love who he wants in "Revolution".
* In the Season 5 finale, when Nathalie realises Gabriel is now closer than ever in getting the Ladybug and Cat Miraculous as nearly every human is hypnotized by his Alliance rings, she decides to go down to the basement where Emilie's comatose corpse and Gabriel are located, using her crossbow in attempt to threaten Gabriel, before he transforms into Monarch and knocks her out. Nathalie is found by Ladybug, whom she gives a phone with videos of Emilie on it in hopes of convincing Gabriel to stop, before she presumably dies, before she is revived by Gabriel sacrificing himself to make a wish.
* Overall, she is more consistently magnificent compared to Gabriel, who, while has moments of being intelligent, has multiple disqualifying factors, such as having moments of being very headstrong which leads him to pulling incredibly stupid moves, has moments of being a buttmonkey as well as having some pretty bad villainous breakdowns, and becomes more and more cruel in Season 5. Nathalie on the other hand always keeps her cool, is shown to have standards as she objects to Gabriel's more questionable actions, and ultimately has none of his mitigating factors.

## What Makes Her A Baddie?

* For most of the show she was Hawk Moth's ally out of her own accord, creating Sentimonsters to help him out and helping him out in other ways, such as giving advice.
* She spitefully destroys the sentimonster Ladybug when she turns against Nathalie and joins the heroes.
* She attempted to steal Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous in order to make a wish before Gabriel could, despite knowing it would have cataclysmic consequences.
* In the New York special she destroys the Sentimonster Robostus she had created earlier to help Hawk Moth before Ladybug could use her Lucky Charm ability to repair the damage caused, meaning any potential casualties would be permanent.
