Before the Christmas in 1924, Mary bought a state-of-the-art submachine gun for Anson as an early Christmas present. The novel and manga revealed that she received it from an agent by the name of John who was working for the Allied Kingdom. The gift soon was stolen and kept by Tanya during the battle of Fjord.

How to use a Victory/The Finest Hour; Chapter V: Internal affairs
After Mary learned about his father's fate in her grandmother's house in Arkansas, she volunteered to become a soldier to take revenge on the Devil of the Rhine even though she was below the minimum age for volunteer soldiers. At that moment, she prayed to the God and received the same blessing as Tanya from Being X.

Abilities
Prayer/Blessing/Gospel Magic

The user can cast a spell by praying to Being X stronger than Tanya's powers. The speed is faster than an average human. In addition, the firing abilities exceed Tanya's capabilities with 100% exact hit to the target.

She can blow a whole battalion (48 men) with only one artillery spell, as opposed to Tanya's, which can only wipe out a whole company (12 men). However, it reduces her mana to fifty percent of her full power, as shown during her first mission as a volunteered soldier of US.

Rage Mode

The user's hatred and a grudge against "Devil of the Rhine" become the source of the power. It exceeds the limits of Blessed User. The operation orb of the user becomes brighter and regenerates mana quickly.

However, as a side effect, the user loses control of their own movements and reason.

Quotes
Catchphrase: "Curse you, Devil of the Rhine!"

(Mary's declaration [Episode 12]) : "I declare that for the sake of the peace I must protect and for the sake of the family I love, I will give my whole power! To make a world that no one else has to experience the sadness of losing their family to the Empire. And to enact God's justice! I swear by my good heart which believes in the Lord! May the Lord's grace be with me!"

(Mary to Tanya) : "I finally found you! Devil of the Rhine!"

Trivia

 * Her name "Mary Sioux" or "Mary Sue" comes from the trope Mary Sue. However, because her character was rewritten when Youjo Senki became a light novel, she doesn't fit the trope very well anymore.
 * She is the only person who can match Tanya von Degurechaff in many battles.
