Mad Maggie was a night hag warlord and leader of the Knucklebones Gang in Avernus in the late 15th century DR.[1]

Personality[]

Mad Maggie on the surface acted as a gentle grandmother but in truth she was a cruel and scheming individual. She had become obsessed with Zariel's story as she had a great interest in the corruption of valiant souls.[1]

History[]

Mad Maggie went to Avernus in search of the ultimate misery. There she found a piece of a tapestry that chronicled the history and the fall of Zariel. Wanting to know more, Mad Maggie searched all over the plane for many years for more pieces of the tapestry.[1]

In the Year of Three Ships Sailing, 1492 DR[note 1], Mad Maggie may have met the hollyphant Lulu, who inside her fractured memory knew all about Zariel.[1]

Relationships[]

Mad Maggie ruled over the Knucklebones Gang, comprising many fey creatures, a collection of redcaps, her fiendish flesh golem Mickey, the kenku Chukka and Clonk, a pair of imps, and a flameskull.[1]

Notes[]

  1. Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus is set in 1492 DR per the "Baldur's Gate Gazetteer" section (p. 159) and a clarification from the adventure's lead writer. Baldur's Gate III, which is a direct sequel to Descent into Avernus set immediately after its events, is also set in 1492 DR. In an apparent error, pages 7 and 47 of Descent into Avernus describes certain events as occurring "fifty years" after 1444 DR (1494 DR).
