Her mother saw new opportunities in Golden Grove and decided to live there for a better life. Maddie has moved a lot in her life, so she got used to moving around. After moving to Golden Grove, she met Qiu and Tamarack. Initially, she didn't care to become friends with them, but later became best friends with them because of spending time with them for so long.
Fun fact: Maddie has a much stronger connection with animals than with humans because animals don't judge about what you think or say. This made her have an obsession with nature and wildlife.
Maddie only talks casually to people she feels comfortable with. While alone she acts (or with someone she trusts) she acts more herself.
Maddie has an extremely quiet personality, consistent with her appearance of looking like a mannequin. Many describe her as beautiful yet uncanny, as she was born with skin as white as paper, sharp facial features, paranoid eyes, long white hair, and very tall. Her appearance brought a lot of unwanted attention to her. Despite all that she was still the best hide-and-seek player known to man.
This led her to become very clingy to Qiu and Tamarack. She was especially clingy to Qiu, as they were popular too and she wanted to learn how to navigate popularity. Aside from this, she felt distant from them because she cared about how people thought of her while Qiu did not. Qiu gave up trying to please everyone, as Maddie hadn't done so herself.
Due to school stress, Maddie would lie to her mother to rebel against her. Lying about after school clubs and having after school tutoring. With having extra free time, she would hang out with Qiu on the days they skip their ballet classes or hangout in the forest. Maddie would remove all her frustration in the forest, shedding all her outer clothes and only wear her inner clothes which are tank top, and some shorts. Throughout the forest, she walks barefoot, climbs trees, and swims in a nearby lake near the forest. She got used to the cold autumn weather at Gloden Grove and became resistant to poking twigs, sharp rocks that got between their feet, and the feeling of dirt.
Fun Fact: Maddie nicknamed Qiu xióng which means bear in Chinese, as he's always wearing a fuzzy jacket. Tamarack's nickname is Biene which means bee, because when Tamarack was child, she was a very 'busy bee' in Maddie definition.
Maddie only calls out Qiu and Tamarck with their nicknames (yes even in public). This is because she feels like she can talk freely to them.
Maddie will fight physically and emotionally for Tamarck and Qiu. As Maddie sees them very dear to her, and if something wrong ever happens to them she assumes the problem could lead Qiu or Tamarck to disappear from her. This could cause problems if the fights are physical. Despite her looks, Maddie is surprisingly strong, and she can fight well, but she lacks self-control when fighting. Resulting in many consequences for her.
Cute fun fact: Maddie unknowingly would get very close and snuggly with Qiu and Tamarck when by their side. Hugging them without any thought, grab hold of their clothing, leading on them, or rub her head against them when she has a lot of energy. This sometimes comes off as teasing or flirting to many.
(IDK why I did this, but it was fun to write out my character in the game.)
