History: Wiki Entry
Personality: Margaret is a stubborn, ambitious, dedicated woman stuck in an era where the furthest any woman is expected to go in life is to the head of a family dinner table. Raised an army brat, she always knew that she wanted to join the military herself as soon as possible and she typically thrives in the structure that the army provides. She holds a great reverence for the command structure, putting more stock in the value of rank and position than almost anyone else in the 4077 even as she loosened up over time.

A military psychologist once described Margaret as: "an interesting woman: on the outside, all discipline and strength, and on the inside, six kinds of passion looking for an exit." These passions include a hair-trigger temper, a desire for genuine human connection often complicated by her equally strong libido, deep care for her patients, and ambition enough to try and carve her place in this mans' world. These have all gotten her in trouble in various ways throughout her service in Korea, initially as more of an antagonistic force pitted against most of her fellow personnel and then later as someone who'd become more one of the gang, growing as tired of the war as any of them despite her loyalty to the military.

Because in the end, Margaret cares deeply about other people, despite any and all attempts not to, often hiding behind her rank and responsibilities in ways that put distance between her and the very people she wishes would include her. She struggles to show it, let alone actually form those meaningful connections she craves, but that doesn't change the truth. It's when she starts to allow herself to feel and care more openly that she really starts to come into her own.

Initial Game Plan: Margaret's going to immediately want to find work and settle into a routine to get some structure back after this weird turn in her life. Also probably drink a fair amount.
RP Interests: Other military types and medical types are a good ground for starting CR. She also desperately needs some lady friends! I'm generally interested in playing with her having to adapt to the lack of military structure or wartime pressure, getting her to lower her walls even further, so on. Also open to possible shipping/casual hook-ups. Someone destroy this woman's perception that she's straight.
Preferred Job: Physician! She's going to work in Hawkeye's clinic.
NSFW-friendly?: Yes!
