History

Irreverent: At the forefront of everything, Mae is irreverent of everything and anything and often compiles it with either being blunt or snarky. She often talks back to the cops, offers brutally honest opinions to her friends and family, and even talks back to what she assumes to be God.

Supportive: While Mae is often a mess and steps on her own relationships in her blundering steps through any given interaction, she does genuinely care for her friends and family. They are the center of her world and she will do anything from offer to kill someone to listen to them pour their hearts out as she does for both Bae and Gregg’s meltdowns about their lives in each of their paths. She has honest (and only sometimes good) advice to offer, but she’ll always be supportive to the best of her ability to see them out of the dark.

Self-Defeating: On top of her troubles with Dissociation, Mae suffers from some depression and issues with self-worth, often culminating in a low opinion of herself and hat she can do. She has a scene where she’s in front of a mirror before a party, judging her appearance. Every time she tries to say something nice, an ‘inner voice’ displayed in red text says something mean back to her, eventually leading the player to having to choose between two response options that are both belittling to Mae, there’s a few times this happens in more mild forms, but the party she has a lot of anxiety about is the biggest example.

Outgoing: Throughout the game, Mae talks to everyone, while this could be argued to be a function of the game, she’s often found talking to herself or inanimate objects when no one else is around, she inherently craves companionship and will find it wherever she can, whether that’s baby possums in a hollowed out parade float or the local homeless guy. If she doesn’t know your name, she will learn it.

Tenacious: Whether a flaw or a virtue, Mae is stubborn and tenacious as anything. Even at her worse, curled up and terrified of her surroundings and self-medicating on cough syrup to sleep, she scrapes together enough willpower and bravery to leave her dorm room and make her way back to Possum Springs. She latches onto things and sticks with them, best shown in how she witnesses the ‘ghost’ she sees kidnapping a kid and then rallies her friends into hunting it with her despite their dismissal, it’s also showcased in how she not only argues with God, but seems to ‘fight back’ with the Black Goat Chthonic entity when it confronts her.
