Magdalena Santana

## Sigil

**Magdalena Santana/Vector Courier**, more commonly known as **Maddie**, was a member of Team Courier, working alongside Jasmine Duala. She was also best friends with Phoebe.

## Powers

Maddie's power is to change vectors at will on anything she touches, including herself. Generally, this means she can alter the speed and direction of anything she is touching, even if said object is completely stationary. As mentioned, she can do this to herself, as well as other people and monsters, although using her powers on living things is more costly than doing it to objects.

Maddie's usage of her powers tends to be rather creative, which has earned her the spot as the third best fighter in Team Courier despite her comparative lack of build for such a thing.

## Physical Appearance

Maddie is of latin heritage, and has a height of 160cm / 5'2. She has a rather average build, tending a bit to the athletic side. Before the Dream, Maddie had dark brown hair and hazel eyes. Following the dream, both have changed to a somewhat light pink. She keeps her hair in a short bob.

Her outfit as a Magical Girl consists of a sleeveless dress that Ellie describes as being "having an arrowy pattern, with all sorts of straight and bendy lines", as well as elbow-length gloves and knee-high boots, all of it in tones of red, white and pink. As with all Couriers, she also carries a satchel bag when out on patrol.

When not transformed or at school, Maddie tends to dress lightly but loudly, preferring t-shirts and jeans. It's also known she has a t-shirt stylized after the arrow pattern on her Magical Girl dress, although whether that's merchandise or custom-made is unknown.

## Personality

Maddie is bubbly and mischievous, constantly playing pranks and thinking up puns. It's been theorized, if not confirmed by her behavior, that Maddie does this as a way to distract others from any negative feelings or situations that are currently taking place.

Privately, Maddie has struggled with depression for many years, and although she has overcome it before, she still suffers episodes of depressive behavior, for which she sees a therapist. On the whole, she has improved a lot, and her current personality is more truth than coping mechanism.

Maddie is also very dedicated to things she enjoys, going a long way to plan her pranks. She is remarkably intelligent, boasting some of the best grades in Team Courier, and greatly enjoys her sparring sessions with Ryder and Chris, displaying a very competitive nature.

## History

Maddie was born on C.S.Y. -15.

Sometime during her early teens, Maddie began suffering from depression, a condition she eventually managed to overcome after being made a Magical Girl. Soon after, having been enrolled in Future's Promise, she met Phoebe, with whom she made fast friends. The two would a few years later become part of Team Courier. There, Maddie would be made partners with Jasmine, whom she also befriended despite their very different personalities.

Following Celina's death, Maddie withdrew and began to show signs of depression once more. In order to deal with this, she began to frequent her therapist more often, a fact she decided to keep from her friends in Team Courier so as to not worry them.

### Team Courier (Work)

The day after Ellie joined the team, Maddie, alongside Phoebe and Chris, took to training Ellie for the job. Reportedly, she kept aiding Ellie with traversing the obstacle course, and later also advised her regarding her concerns about Dawn.

While Ellie's investigations of Team Courier were ongoing, she discovered that Maddie had been hiding something from the rest of the team, related to the fact that she had been avoiding Dawn, despite the rest of the team aiding at her father's shop when possible. This brought suspicion upon her later, and once half of Team Courier were hospitalized following the fight at the blue building, she was cornered due to this and forced to admit her struggles with depression to the remaining Couriers.

On the same night, Maddie went with the remainder ofher team to investigate what was believed to be the base of whoever had been attacking Team Courier. In doing so, they were attacked by a monster, a confrontation that led to her death as the monster grabbed her and threw itself at the Outer Barrier with Maddie in it's grasp.
