Siti Lampir Maimunah, known as Mak Lampir is a princess from the ancient kingdom of Champa.
Mak Lampir is a beautiful woman. Told, one day she met a traveler named Datuk Panglima Kumbang. They both fell in love but the Champa Kingdom rejected their relationship because Datuk Panglima Kumbang was a tiger demon who transformed into a human, also the tiger demon kingdom rejected Mak Lampir who was a human. The two kingdoms have long fought and killed each other.
Feeling disappointed with the Champa Kingdom, Mak Lampir went to meditate on Mount Merapi. There he met a teacher named Grandma Serintil. The teacher taught her about black magic which added to Mak Lampir's supernatural powers. Along with her increasing strength, the longing for Datuk Panglima Kumbang in Mak Lampir's heart grew.
