## Appearance

[START STATE]

Maggie is a short, pudgy girl with hazel eyes and dark brown hair. She has tan, freckled skin and wears a soft smile as a neutral expression.  Some would describe her as looking like a deer in headlights with her wide-eyed stare. Her appearance is well-kempt and unimposing, though she possesses a few striking facial features that have made her look almost comparable to that of an old marble statue. Her straight nose bridge gives her the traditional ‘Greek’ appearance,

## Characteristics & Description

[START STATE]

Magdalena, often known by the short form “Maggie”, is a charming and reserved girl. Raised by a conservative family, as many were in the 80’s, she is traditionally feminine, and naive. She has not been known to raise her voice or use any obscene words or gestures. Maggie is- for all intents and purposes- a very well-mannered young lady.

With her sheltered upbringing, there is much about the world that Maggie does not know or understand. As a result, she is very curious- and has continued her habit of journaling and drawing in camp to keep track of her new findings.

## Backstory

Birth into the Williams estate was not much more than a lottery. Parents John and Shirley were staunchly traditional, devout individuals who imposed their righteous way of life onto their children. With two older brothers preceding her, poor Magdalena had her work cut out for her from the day she was born. By the time her silvery hazel eyes could take in the world around her, she'd already embarked on what could only be considered as rigorous training. A training that many young girls her age in their old-money, old-fashioned community went through.

Shirley Williams was a kind but stern woman, well-known throughout the Tuxedo Park neighborhood for her extravagant parties and gatherings. For 'Maggie,' as she was affectionately known, the doctrine of her mother became gospel - her role within the hearth was that of a guardian of familial image and steward of immaculacy. To Maggie, there was nothing wrong with this; she had never known a different way of life. Besides, who didn't like helping their Mama around the house? Maggie found herself loving the busy days spent cleaning and baking at her mother's side. Sunday dinners were always the highlight of the week, with new flower arrangements set on the table and pies fresh out of the oven.

While many families in the community upheld similar values, the Williams family's standards were more exacting. They preached extreme modesty and particular behaviors, all under the guise of being 'ladylike.' Magdalena, much like her peers of the same age in her conservative Christian private school, was encouraged to adopt a gracious demeanor. Her naturally warm, kind-hearted disposition and soft-spoken nature made her a well-known and beloved figure among her classmates. This popularity came with its own set of responsibilities, as Maggie, an extension of her mother, felt compelled to maintain a flawless reputation. While her mother's desire for a pristine image had somewhat vain origins, Maggie embraced it with genuine enthusiasm, growing to believe that being loved and being of service were essential.

Though Maggie's upbringing was not particularly traumatic or difficult in her opinion, it was undoubtedly limiting. This upbringing left her with some 'outdated,' occasionally ignorant thought processes and, in comparison to her other peers, left her considerably weaker and less experienced, missing fundamentally important skills. Sports and most physically intense or 'dirty' activities were off-limits to Maggie, leaving her with little on-the-spot strategy, skills, and very little physical conditioning.

As she grew older, Maggie's world began to feel increasingly constricted. She was torn between her desire to please her family and the growing sense that there was more to life than maintaining the household and adhering to strict, traditional values. A curiosity for the world beyond her community started to take root in her heart, and she began to secretly explore her interests in books, art, and music, all of which had been considered indulgent by her parents.

Though there was not much time for her to explore this, unfortunately, as Maggie was approached and sent to Camp Half Blood months after her 'rebellious activities', leading her often to feel that this was the cause, and a punishment.

## Relationships

### Lucille Rosario

Lucille and Maggie met upon their entry to camp. Sticking together as their small group of friends formed throughout the first few weeks of their stay in camp. Maggie considers Lucille to be her sister, even if they are not related by blood. She would die for this girl.

### Stephanie Harrison

Similarly to Lucille, Stephanie is a girl that Maggie looks up to considerably, and is one of the only people that Maggie has, on record- become violent to protect. While their relationship has distanced as a result of the camp Civil war, Maggie still loves her, and would lay herself down to protect her.

### Maximos

Maximos, to Maggie- is someone special. She does not understand why she wants to be around him so much, but she does care deeply for him-even if he does not outwardly show the same sentiment back. While he is currently MIA In camp after the appearance of Hera, Maggie can be seen going to the Hermes cabin, and entering the CC room for a short period of time on a near daily basis. What she does there is unclear.

### Zoey

Zoey is possibly one of the most impactful characters to Maggie to date. Having met on their first day in camp, Maggie and Zoey shared a granola bar and some old jam packets to make the tasteless food at camp more manageable-- or just to avoid eating it entirely. Zoey is the reason Maggie had drifted from her traditional families ideals, and branched out into different things. She would never know how to wield a blade, if not for Zoey.
