Personality, Strengths and Weaknesses
You would probably rather have Maggie-Rae as your enemy than a friend as she inherited her papa, Ori’s hot temper and caustic personality. But there are certain individuals that she can learn to trust and vice versa. Maggie's relationships with people tend to be more transactional then emotional, though she can occasionally feel fondness or empathy. However, like a good Mandalorian, she’s extremely loyal to her clan and would do anything to help and support them.
For the most part Maggie-Rae is ruthless, sadistic, selfish and brash which makes her an excellent enemy unless you're a spineless coward. When she's in a bad mood, her thick Concordia accent can be heard across the hilltops like the mating call of a harpy.
A capricious tomboy, the Americus woman prefers fun to stability and chooses to one-night stands with both men and women, rather than settling down.
History
Maggie-Rae was born in conflict. Ori Americas, her Papa and brother of Jo Americas, had moved the family to from a small pleasant farming community on Concord Dawn to an even more remote idyllic agricultural commune on Concordia seeking peace, quiet and tihaar. Not long after Ori fell in with a criminal gang and quickly stacked up numerous gambling debts. With loan sharks circling, one night at the small caravan of speeders, crawlers and dilapidated ships that they called home, the family was attacked, and Maggie-Rae emerged into the world, but her mother Lina did not survive. Devastated by his wife’s death, Ori was left to raise three children by himself. Instead of cleaning up his act, he joined up with a fearsome gang of marauders who would stop at nothing to advance their goals. They were called Tal be Me'suum'ika (Blood of the Moon). Ori Americas found a new hideout and branched out into more criminal activities like extortion for resources, stealing, smuggling, distilling moonshine and kidnapping for ransoms.
Adolescent Maggie-Rae did as she was told - hunting, foraging, cooking and cleaning. But when the Tal be Me’suum’ika girl turned nineteen she learned more advanced Mandalorian skills - combat, shooting, melee weapon wielding, riding war droids. One day Maggie-Rae at target practice in the woods, hitting rusty cans with a Mandalorian Ripper, stumbled upon a starved drifter named Ting who she quickly tried to kill, but realizing he had more than a few survival skills which would make him useful, brought him home to Papa.
Ori despised Ting and refused to let Maggie-Rae near him, so after forty-eight hours the love-struck pair eloped and moved back to Concord Dawn. At first the duo with little in the way of weapons, ammunition and food, lived a meager, low-class existence. Their whirlwind romance quickly turned into endless bickering, not to mention Maggie’s difficult time processing her mother’s death which was marked by periodic bouts of depression and psychosis.
Eventually Maggie-Rae fell homesick for the caravan on Concordia, but too proud to crawl back to her Papa, she sought refuge with the larger Americus clan, lead by Jo, Orin’s brother, seeking the protection of family and blood.
Where they go, she goes.
