Trivia
- As a consequence of being the same level, Marla and Hestia have the exact same stats as each other throughout all their appearances in Gaiden.
- They also have identical stats in the final act of Echoes: Shadows of Valentia due to having the same level.
- In Gaiden Hestia and Marla share portraits, but one is flipped.
- The generic class portrait for witches in Fire Emblem Fates may be inspired by Marla's and Hestia's appearances, as the Fates witch has the same hair color—a very dark and high contrast purple—as the two sisters.
- In Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Marla and her sister Hestia use generic witch models in battle despite having custom map sprites.
- Despite only appearing as a witch in Shadows of Valentia, Marla has an unused set of sprites for if she appears in a mounted class; these sprites, however, are edits of Sonya's mounted sprites.

And they're both gone now..." — Sonya, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
