Literally "God from the machine", Deus Ex Machina originally referred to Greek plays, where the "gods" would be lowered onto the stage in order to provide a quick resolution to the story. Today, Deus Ex Machina refers to any improbably and/or overly convenient character or mechanism that comes out of nowhere saves the character(s) from their doom.
For a hilarious send-up of Deus Ex Machina, check out the spaceship scene in Monty Python's Life of Brian.

Get the Macina mug.A responsible caring person. Forgiving and understanding. Sometimes can be the funny one. But if you piss her off she will probably go somewhere else to let low and can go ballistic if with friends and family. She is also very bright and doesn't exactly like showing off. She likes attention but not too much of it. You can practically tell her about a series and she will watch it through t night. She also likes staying up late to catch up on movies where there is less noise. Man I can't finish all the nice things about her but she can do the unexpected. If you have a Macrina in your life hang on there you won't be disappointed. U will be like damn I am so blessed. If she is your girlfriend just buy her an empire
Macrina is the best girlfriend I have ever had, probably gonna marry her.
I call dibs on Macrina.
Damn she must be a Macrina.
