What was the name of the official mascot of the 1992 Barcelona Paralympic Games?

The story behind the answer

Petra was the official mascot of the 1992 Barcelona Paralympic Games.

Petra was an armless girl depicted in a stylized, colorful design. The character was created by the Spanish artist Javier Mariscal, who also designed Cobi, the official mascot of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games.

Petra and Cobi were separate mascots for the two movements, although both belonged to the same Barcelona 1992 visual culture. Petra represented the Paralympic Games, while Cobi represented the Olympics.

The Barcelona Paralympics were held from 3 to 14 September 1992. They were notable for a major expansion in participation and organization, helping establish the modern relationship between Olympic and Paralympic host cities.
