## History

## Personality

Madeline is described as constantly being in a "soldier mode" of sorts. She generally acts aloof and avoids befriending and conversing with others unless prompted to. Despite her seemingly cold attitude, she is never outright mean towards anyone. She extremely dedicated to hunting down the Vani, to the point where she worries little about other things such as her past.

## Abilities

Madeline's primary weapon of choice is a scythe.

## Relationships

### Zahalkro

One of Madeline's teammates. Although wary towards him, she's slowly warming up to Zahalkro. She doesn't like it when other Vani pick on him.

### Charlotte Kingsley

One of Madeline's teammates and friends. Though she enjoys her company, she finds Charlotte's reckless attitude to be problematic due to how often it leads to the whole team getting in trouble. She hopes that Charlotte will one day realize her faults and try to improve upon them.

### Alex Creighton

One of Madeline's teammates and friends. She considers Alex a curiosity and values his company.

### Atlas

One of Madeline's teammates and friends. She finds them charming and puts a lot of trust in them when it comes to piloting. Their presence motivates her to learn ASL, as she often has to consult Zahalkro for translations.

### Megan Luvsik

She views Megan as an arch nemesis and nuisance, though also suspects that there's more to her than meets the eye.

### Bellojey

She considers him bothersome to deal, calling him a thorn in her side.

### Alatori

Enemy. She considers Alatori to be the worst of the Vani.

## Appearances

### Madeline's Memory

Madeline lives through her trauma one last time before the memory of it gets erased. Fast forwarding to a later point in time, she's then seen staring out into a field with horses running. A concerned Alex tries to get her attention, but she is unresponsive.

### Perennial Crisis

Madeline is first seen standing on top of a hill, next to a tree as she observes Kaylee and Xelzerin's garden from a distance. She then confronts the plant Vani and destroys his left horn in one fell swoop. She later pairs up with Arthur as they witness Kaylee's monsterization. While Madeline attempts to retrieve the tether, Kaylee disappears before she can do so.

### Anguish of the Patchwork Guardian

When Zone-B concludes that a series of deaths among organization leaders are apart of a Vani attack, they dispatch Madeline to handle the issue. After following the trail of attacked areas, she's able to find Benjamin and Insinera in a medium-sized city. Fearing Patch would be hurt in the oncoming battle, she tries to separate the two, but this only angers Insinera, with her beginning to burn the whole city down in an attempt to kill Madelinel. This backfires, however, as Madeline uses the opportunity to sneak up on Insinera in her blind fury and shoot her in her brand, incapacitating her.

### Cognition Factory

Following the tether cameos, Madeline makes a brief appearance inside The Factory.

### Arbitrary Sermon Side-A

Madeline infiltrates Alatori's sermon, hanging in the back as she observes the situation. She later takes a seat among the crowd until Alatori notices her presence. She attempts to take down the spirit Vani, but her efforts are cut short as she begins to monsterize, and passes out from the stress of transforming, allowing Alatori to escape with Elliot.

### Macguffin in the Limelight

Madeline is out in the city alongside Charlotte when she hears screaming. She glances to the side to find Alex being detained and captured by Reversal Co. scientists, angered by their cruelty. She appears again at the end alongside Charlotte and Zahalkro to rescue Alex and bring him back to Zone-B.
