== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Maddison, or Maddi for short, first met Chloe when they were in first grade. Despite her young age at the time, Maddi knew that Chloe was different to everyone else due to her behavior and from there she befriended her and they became best friends along with another girl named Alisha. The three girls have been best friends and because Australians are known for their mateship, the three girls looked after one another during their time in primary school and high school, especially because Chloe would frequently find herself getting into fights and being bullied by other students.
Maddi was a victim of domestic abuse from her father and her mother, Emma, was never allowed to see Maddi again after a court case in 2010. Chloe, Melissa, Michael and Jayden became Maddi's true family. Melissa provided Maddi with things her father couldn't be bothered to give her-decent clothes, a mobile/smart phone and even helped her learn to drive and she earned her Ps in early 2018. It wasn't until a bit later on in the year where Maddi's father discovered that Maddi was insured and thus tried to kill her several times to get money. One night, Maddi drove to Chloe's house, wanting to stay away from her father for a little while. She was welcomed inside with open arms and given dinner and was offered to stay the night, she kindly accepted. However, Chloe and Maddi's relationship became something more overnight when Melissa went to wake up the two girls and found them sleeping together in the same bed, almost completely nude.
Sympathetic, Maddi apologized to Melissa, stating she would never try to embarrass her daughter in such a way, so she left, still putting her clothes on. This incident made Chloe come out as bisexual, thus leading to further bullying. Maddi's domestic abuse came to an end when Chloe decided to pay Maddi a visit and found her father violently abusing her. Maddi begged for help, saying that he was going to kill her. In a violent outburst, seeing her best friend being attacked, Chloe attacked her father and they eventually went to court. Maddi was adopted by Melissa and welcomed into her family with open arms.
Maddi went to formal and gradated a couple of days later with Chloe and her other friends. She moved out in 2023 and moved to Brisbane city to become a police officer. She got married to Liam Andrews about five years later and had her first daughter, Sophie and second several years later, Kirra.
=== Saints Row (2018) ===
On Earth-87469 during the Zintek Revolution which began in 2016, the Australian government and Australian Defence Force began salvaging the alien technology that crash landed throughout the country and used it to rebuild most of the major cities, further advance normal and military technology and established the most advanced and elite military corps in the world-ANZAC X. Maddi and Chloe were among some of the soldiers to be transferred to the ANZAC X military program where they were transferred to the 26th battalion, and have been serving their country in that same battalion ever since.
But after the ANZAC X military program was corrupted by L.E.G.I.O.N. prior to Devil's Night, Maddi lost her husband and youngest daughter, Kirra to the devastating event while her oldest, Sophie, was severely injured. Maddi helplessly watched as her daughter begged for life as she was tormented by a squad of Helltroopers. Maddi couldn't do anything else except say that everything was going to be alright. The Shocktrooper told Maddi not to make promises she can't keep and forced her to watch as he deliberately broke Sophie's spine in three major places, permanently paralysing her from the waist down. After Maddi rushed Sophie to the emergency section of the hospital, She went back out to find Liam and Kirra, but she was too late and they both died in her arms.
Maddi was told that Sophie would never walk again and what remained of her arm had to be amputated, followed by the loss of her husband and youngest daughter, they were both burdens on Maddi's life. Believing she failed them all and blamed herself ever since. Maddi stayed with Sophie in the hospital for weeks, and Sophie's friends even visited her. After a few weeks, Sophie was allowed to return home but was confined to a wheel chair for the rest of her life. Maddi eventually went into a deep state of depression and refused to eat major meals for the next week and a half, only making food for Sophie, who also suffered from depression because of her disability. Maddi was allowed to stay off work until she could get herself together. Maddi only stayed at home and was most often spotted lying on the bed, sitting in the kitchen, dining and lounge, mindlessly staring ahead. It eventually got to a point where it frightened Sophie, which made Maddi snap out of it and get herself together.
Luckily for the both of them, Sophie was given back her other arm and her ability to walk by state-of-the-art cybernetics designed and built in Australia.
== Personality ==
Maddi is extremely kind and loyal towards her friends, but shows great signs of aggression towards people she doesn't like or those who have a go at her friends. Depending on her mood, she will either threaten or attack them. Maddi's bond with Chloe runs deep to the point where they get inappropriate or sexual when they joke around. Like all friends, their friendship isn't perfect and hasn't come without arguments from time to time. She gets along with children and has soft side towards Chloe's daughter, Chelsea, also being a mother of two daughters.
During her recruitment to M.A.Y.H.E.M. at Chloe's request, Maddi is somewhat jealous of Shaundi seeing as Chloe and Shaundi are now best friends as well, making Maddi feel replaced but this is later sorted out when the girls talk amongst themselves later on.
Like others, Maddi seeks justice against the ones that killed her family. Though her methods aren't as violent as that of Chloe or some fellow agents, she will use most means necessary to deliver justice. Maddi shows signs of loyalty not just towards Chloe but towards most of her fellow agents and new friends, being a major part of her personality, willing to do anything if it means putting her life on the line for theirs.
== Appearance ==
In her flashback before, during and shortly after Devil's Night, Maddi has short, boy cut hair with her fringe flicked to the left and was often seen in her police uniform. But during her deep state of depression as weeks went by after Devil's Night, Maddi didn't keep her hair that short anymore and let it grow longer, by the time she got out of her depression, she trimmed it to shoulder length. Her default appearance when out of her M.A.Y.H.E.M. uniform is small boots with women's denim short shorts and a white tank top. Both in and out of uniform, Maddi wears a blue bandana around her neck. She also has a small nose piercing on the left side of her nose.
When Maddi gets a cybernetic implant fitted to her head, she has all her hair shaved off, much to Chloe's disgust. But as the game later progresses, her hair begins to grow back until it reaches the top of her shoulders, where she keeps it at that length unless her hairstyle/length is changed through customization.
