Mae

Mae is a dark blue cat, known for her vibrant yet faded red hair atop her head. Her large, captivating red eyes complement her distinctive look, while a notch in her right ear—left by a dog attack—adds to her unique character. Her body showcases pronounced curves, with a fuller bust and rounded hips that create an hourglass shape. Despite her smaller height, her thickness can add to her overall presence, giving her a striking silhouette. Her arms and legs may also have soft curves, contributing to a feminine appeal, while her waist might be narrower, accentuating her shape with a big butt. Like, a MASSIVE butt. When she dances, her butt claps. When she twerks, her butt claps a lot. Mae often dons an orange shirt with red sleeves featuring a slashed zero design, paired with dark grey jeans and her signature cheap green-ish knock-off Doc Martens. Although she considers herself shorter and overweight, her grandfather’s description of her as “sturdy” sticks with her.

Mae Borowski was born between late 1996 and mid-1997, making her 20 years old by 2017. As the only child of Candy and Stan Borowski, Mae grew up in a family with a legacy tied to the coal mines of Possum Springs. With aspirations of greatness, Mae attended college for three semesters but returned home after struggling to cope with her dissociative disorder.

Her teenage years were marked by turmoil, culminating in the Incident during high school that tarnished her reputation—a shadow that looms over her return to Possum Springs. As she reconnects with her hometown, Mae becomes embroiled in mysterious events, hinting at something darker lurking beneath the surface.

Mae embodies an energetic and free-spirited nature, often seen climbing everything in sight—from electrical poles to rooftops. Despite her playful exterior, she grapples with depression and anger issues, stemming from a dissociative episode referred to as “the Incident.” Her journey is marked by a mix of self-deprecating humor and deep compassion, illustrating a character who cares deeply for her friends and often grapples with her troubled past. Mae is nostalgic about her hometown and often reflects on how much Possum Springs has changed since her college days.

Trivia Mae has a disdain for beer and has a low alcohol tolerance, preferring to stick with her favorite foods, pizza and tacos. She is canonically pansexual and a virgin. Mae has a phobia of elevators but finds solace in her quirky hobbies, which include playing bass guitar in a band with her friends, despite limited experience. Her obsession with dinosaurs is revealed in grades, casual conversations, and an early-placed poster in her attic. A self-proclaimed "hermit" and “trash mammal,” Mae's character is rich with humor and layered complexities, making her relatable to many young adults.
