Further Information

Description

Maggie is a stout woman with pale skin and brown hair, its thickness betraying her Lithuanian roots. Her cat-eyes are usually disguised with mirrored red glasses, but those close to her will be aware of the deception. Her dress tends towards the functional rather than the formal, although she will occasionally dress up dramatically. Cat jewelry is featured among her accessories, as is a bent tree of life, in the Romuva style.

Inspirational Playlist: I Gotchu

Stories I'm telling.

Deep roots: Maggie practices a somewhat homebrew version of Romuva, the indigenous religion of Lithuania. How does she choose to continue an existence in the darkness while following a religion of fire and light?

Keeper of the lost: Maggie is also a protector of things that other people don't always care about. Stray cats and endangered wildcats are her obvious front, but her drive as a guardian doesn't necessarily stop there.

I don't understand your meat noises: While Maggie is afab, and currently presenting as female, that's not always the case.

Be true: Maggie carefully chooses her friends and rewards loyalty with unshakable loyalty.
