DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Her eyes are a stunning, brilliant blue. She has this innocent look about her, even if she's anything but.
PHYSICAL APPEARENCE:

Maddie has always been proud and confident in her appearance. With gorgeous, dark brown hair that lays down her back in soft, luscious curls, she's never really had to deal with a bad hair day. If it doesn't look how she wants it to, she can just straighten it and throw it back into a perfect ponytail. Her features are soft and delicate, she's never had troubles with her teeth, and her skin couldn't be more compliant. Her body is thin and lithe, yet not overly so. Maddie has the curves that most skinny girls lack. Mae isn't necessarily the prettiest girl in the world, but she certainly knows that she's up there.

CLOTHING STYLE:

Generally, Mads likes to be comfortable yet still stylish. She wouldn't be caught dead in sweats out in the public eye, but it's her own opinion. The only jewelery that she wears is the occasional bracelet or necklace, but she always has a pair of earrings in her ears. Her skirts can get a little too short, her shirts a little too tight; she doesn't think twice about these sort of things.

LIKES: men, herself, modern decor, vintage things, stories, her mementos, games, competitiveness, sports, music, energy drinks.
DISLIKES: work, stereotypes, immature people, naivety, bitches, relationships, commitment, promises, early mornings, snow.
STRENGTHS: getting away with things, making men fall at her feet, and staying away from commitment.
WEAKNESSES: she's a complete and total slut, she can't help but steal from the men she's with, and she judges at first sight.
GOALS: get out of this town, get an enthralling job that doesn't require too much work.
FEARS: never changing, a relationship, love.
HABITS: Mads is always dropping things; growing up her brother called her butterfingers until she yelled at him and told him to quit. She always judges and doesn't give people a chance. After hooking up with a guy, she steals something of his, something unique, to commemorate the conquest. Her nose scrunches up when she's worried. Her left foot taps when she's getting restless.
OVERALL PERSONALITY:

promiscuous, flirt, slut
Maddie can't help it - she's always loved the fellas. Her eyes are always wandering around her, scoping out possibly prospects for her next conquest. It's become a game to her, one that she plays all the time.

childish, stubborn, doer
It's not all that common, but her childish side comes out to play every now and again. She often doesn't think before she does, and that can get her into heaps of trouble. Once her mind is set, it's hard to shake her off of the idea. But for the most part, her head is level, and she keeps a calm (yet coy and flirty) demeanor.

straight-forward, judgmental
Mads isn't one to hold back. She jumps to conclusions quickly, and within seconds of meeting you she'll have you pinned. Incorrectly, most likely, but good luck getting her opinion of you to change. And she doesn't like to hide her opinions.

protective, loyal friend
The few who do make it past all of her many flaws are those she considers to be her friends. Once you're here, as long as you don't betray her, you'll be there for a while. She'll stick up for you, stick her neck out for you, and try her best to be as good as a friend as possible.

troubled, psycho, klepto, commitment-phobia
After every single 'conquest', as she calls them, she snags something from the guy to put in her collection. If she can't get something that night, you'll surely hear from her again soon, and then you'll notice something missing. Maddie doesn't like commitment, she doesn't believe that someone can be with someone else for any period of time, as we're all changing on a regular basis. So she stays far, far away from anything that looks like a promise.

HISTORY:

Born into the Erikson family on December 13th, Maddie always gave them trouble. Thankfully, she had two older siblings to help her parents out in raising her. She was colic, got into everything as a toddler, learned things quickly. She would scream and throw tantrums in the middle of stores, for absolutely no reason. She was like a demon child. The Erikson family grew up in a small town in Vermont, and her school years thus far were easy. School and learning just came easily to Maddie, and she could have gone far in life, if that was what she wanted. No, she wanted easy. So she didn't really try, and she has no plans to head off to college. She wants to become a bartender, possibly. She isn't so sure about the specifics.

Both of her siblings, Maggie and Marcus, love her very much. They've been looking out for her for as long as Mae can remember, and it's never let up. Sure, they see things differently than she does, they believe in commitment and love and promises. Both of them are married, with kids. They often bug her about getting a boyfriend, at least to try a commitment, but that's not at all what she wants, so she ignores them when the subject arises. In Maddie's mind, all that love is is a warped form of lust, lies, false promises, and illusions. Where she got this idea from, no one in her family knows. Her parents have a wonderful, healthy relationship. Both of her siblings are in great relationships, married and all. But Maddie doesn't see the need to give someone her heart; she believes that she'd just be setting herself up for pain.

Her parents didn't really have much money, but Maddie didn't really care about that. They do fine. When they moved to Trenton when Mads was going into high school, she discovered her obsession with men. It started out simple enough; staring at them whenever she was out, flirting with them, kissing them. Kissing soon turned into more, and she lost her virginity before she even started high school. She didn't mind; she learned that she loved sex. Maddie had always loved men, and kept at her hookups and one night stands, always with the stealing of something to commemorate the night. It was just something that she started doing, and she honestly doesn't know what had happened to get her to start, but she can't stop. An entire chest full of various items is shoved in the back of her closet, and it's not something that anyone knows about, not even her siblings. It's her thing, it's her life, and none of their business.
