| ~ Diaz reassuring Grizz. |
Diaz is a supporting character of the We Bare Bears franchise.
Like her fellow Poppy Rangers, Diaz is an amazonic and adventurous little girl scout/park ranger and troop who is friends with Ranger Tabes and the three bears, more especially Grizzly Bear. Diaz shows high commitment to her aforementioned fellow Poppy Rangers, but Diaz is described as more curious and entertaining, meaning that she is prone to asking too much questions and/or dwells in seeking for truth, but has a high sense of humor. Additionally, Diaz is also the most intelligent, selfless and rational of the Poppy Rangers. Outside of her career as a park ranger like Ranger Tabes, Diaz is typically seen casually playing with the other Poppy Rangers and having fun, more especially by having tissue and pillow fights and/or flying kites with the other Poppy Rangers.
Diaz is voiced by Marissa Soto.
What Makes Her A Shojo Hero?[]
- Heroic/Honorable: Diaz works with the other Poppies as a heroic team in We Bare Bears in several scenarios, such as saving Wallace from the Hurricane Hal, and assisting Grizz, Panda and Ice Bear into defeating Agent Trout, their arch-nemesis, leading to the latter's deserved incarceration and getting his public reputation and image permanently and ultimately destroyed for unlawfully imprisoning and torturing the bears. Additionally, Diaz and the Poppies have defeated their arch-rivals, the Ivy Rangers, in the annual Peewee Ranger Games, who were known for their disrespectful, juvenile, abusive and spoiled behavior and even xenophobic behavior towards Grizz. Plus, Diaz was the one to offer Grizz his kite to save Wallace from the Hurricane Hal.
- Kind/Gentle: Diaz is very kind and affable to whoever they meet and/or interact with, especially to Grizz, whom she affectionately calls him, "Bear Guy," and Ranger Tabes, whom she often calls her "sir," and always follow Tabes and Grizz's commands regardless of the severity of danger that awaits from them.
- Bubbly: Diaz is extremely bubbly, shown when she and the Poppies take legitimate enjoyment of Grizz getting attacked by bats while embarking through the Howling Mountain Cave, Diaz and the Poppies investigate Grizz's supplies out of both enthusiasm and interest, Diaz and the Poppies sprint out of the Ranger Station in excitement to fly their kites before the Hurricane Hal strikes, and after the Hurricane Hal strikes, Diaz has fun with the Poppies in the Ranger Station by having a tissue/pillow fight with each other (more specifically, Diaz has a fun pillow fight with Murphy), but Diaz isn't necessarily hyperactive. In her character portrait, Diaz is directly described as "curious and witty."
- Optimistic: Diaz is a relentlessly optimistic kid who is always happy to help and reassure other people if required. Even during the most dangerous and darkest moments, Diaz still attempts to find a way out of it and offer other people hope, despite getting the Poppies, Grizz and herself stranded in the Howling Mountain Cave, and offering Grizz a positive influence by cheerleading for him in the Peewee Ranger Games in order to motivate himself from his lack of skill in kickball to defeat the Ivy Rangers and Ranger Zhao, and was even passionate enough to reassure Grizz that he will succeed before cheerleading for Grizz in the final round of the Ranger Games.
- Determined: Diaz is determined to help other people or save those from danger.
- Youthful: Being a kid, Murphy has a zest for living life to the fullest by going on exciting adventures, exploration and doing whatever she wants, as long as if it does not cause harm.
- Idealistic: Diaz believes that the power of teamwork with the other Poppies is powerful enough to take down any threats, which is no wonder she has a pure bond with the other Poppies. Additionally, Diaz and the Poppies plan on how to motivate Grizz from his lack of kickball skill in the Peewee Ranger Games to defeat the Ivy Rangers, that is through cheerleading.
- Believes in the Power of Friendship: Diaz is best friends with not only the Poppies, but is close friends with her superior commander, Ranger Tabes, and the three bears, more especially Grizzly. No matter how much trouble and danger Grizz and Tabes got themselves and the Poppies into (along with Diaz herself), Diaz still desires to continue bonding with them and motivate them, especially in the darkest and most unpleasant moments, being remorseful for being dismissive towards Grizz for goofing up in the Peewee Ranger Games.
- Has a Sweet Tooth: Diaz likes eating pizza, and once starvation took over them in Lord of the Poppies, Diaz attempts to crave on eating Grizz as she hallucinates the latter as a delicious hamburger. Diaz even went as far as biting onto Grizz's leg out of appetite.
- Short-Tempered: Diaz is quick to anger, such as when Grizz's incompetence hits Diaz and the Poppies' patience and when Diaz argues with the Poppies. In Lord of the Poppies, Diaz and the Poppies have a heated and toxic quarrel with each other that outright escalates into a brutal Ranger War, with Diaz lunging onto Wallace to seize the Elite Ranger Guidebook, which is what the other Poppies are after to gain leadership.
- Is a Cutie: Diaz is extremely cute, among the cutest characters in the We Bare Bears franchise, being almost young and adorable as the Baby Bears.
