—Mad Maggie, Maggie's Misfits (C1:E131)
Mad Maggie is a Warlord of Avernus and the leader of the Knucklebones Gang. Her base of operation is known as Fort Knucklebone, and is a fortified compound atop a low plateau that rises out of a crater-pocked landscape.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Years ago, a thirst to experience the ultimate misery brought the night hag to the first layer of the Nine Hells. Followed to Avernus by scores of bloodthirsty redcaps, Maggie found pieces of a beautiful tapestry that chronicled the fall of Zariel. It recounted the angel’s descent into Avernus and her submission to Asmodeus, which led to her becoming an archdevil worthy to rule the layer. Mad Maggie is obsessed with Zariel’s cataclysmic saga and scours the wastelands of Avernus for more such relics. In the crucible of the Avernian wastelands, Mad Maggie has risen to become a respected warlord.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Driven by her lust for misery and her delight in the corruption of the valiant, Mad Maggie seeks to collect more artifacts tied to Zariel's fall from grace. When she became aware of Lulu's relationship to Zariel, the night hag tried to dig up Lulu’s lost memories, believing they might hold the most exquisite emotional records of Zariel’s descent.
