History: http://themagicians.wikia.com/wiki/TV:Margo_Hanson
Margo’s wiki page is pretty limited, so I’ll fill in some blanks with information canon has provided. Margo grew up in a household run by cold, distant parents in Los Angeles, California. She learned of her talent for magic sometime during adolescence. In canon she has admitted to having issues around this time, and we’re talking serious issues. Margo was so ill-adjusted that she wound up as the mastermind behind a magical bank heist in her senior year of high school. As far as we know, it went off without a hitch. She attended UCLA where she majored in theater, but the real story begins in grad school. Having passed the nearly impossible entrance exam, Margo found herself as a student at Brakebills University, pegged as a specialist in physical magic. There she got to know Eliot Waugh who would become the best friend she’d ever had. The two of them would be partners in crime throwing parties, dabbling in the illegal, and participating in orgies together. Their lives would change with the arrival of a younger student named Quentin. With him came a lot of trouble and plenty of near death experiences, but also the opportunity to travel to another world named Fillory. In Fillory, Eliot learned that he had royal blood and was crowned High King. He chose none other than his Bambi, Margo, to rule as High Queen next to him, and for Quentin and another of their friends to fill out other positions in the royal court. It wasn’t smooth at first, but that was only a taste of what was to come. The source of all magic in all worlds, the Fillorian Wellspring, had been tainted, and therefore magic in every world was experiencing brownouts. Spells were temperamental and a solution needed to be found. That responsibility now fell on Eliot and Margo’s shoulders. In addition to that, after being duped and deeply offended by a Crown Prince, Margo declared war on a neighboring kingdom in the heat of the moment – A war, as it turned out, that Fillory could not afford to fight. Once more, Margo had to return to Earth to pull off another magical bank heist to steal enough gold bars to fund the war she had caused. Even then, it wasn’t so easy. Problems kept mounting up until Eliot decided to solve their problem by challenging the king of the neighboring kingdom to a sword fight. He believed that, with magic, he could become an expert swordfighter. It was true – A magic spell had him fighting even more impressively than the other king, but the Wellspring was fickle. Fearing that Eliot would die due to a magical brownout, Margo bargained with the only beings in Fillory that could help ensure the magic wouldn’t run out – the fairies. They agreed to fix the Wellspring in exchange for a child and Margo was willing to have a child for them, but they wanted the child carried by Eliot’s pregnant wife. Desperate, Margo bargained off Eliot’s unborn child thinking it would save his life. The Wellspring was fixed, but the bargain was for naught. Eliot returned to the castle declaring to Margo that he had ended the war by agreeing to marry the king of the other kingdom. She kept her bargain with the fairies a secret. It was only when Eliot’s wife went missing and people around the castle were turned into rats that Margo’s secret came out. Eliot, heartbroken with what his best friend had done, sent Margo to the best room in the dungeon, ordering his men to make sure that she got all of her amenities. Behind his back, she drank a potion that would send her to the fairy realm, intending to solve the mess on her own. That’s the canon point I’m taking her from.

CRAU Game History: Margo showed up in Eudio making fast friends with Danny Rayburn and Kylo Ren and also found a source of support and relief in her best friend Eliot Waugh. She spent her time there not doing much more than having a good time and hunting for a house to share with El.

Incentive: Margo only wants them to restore Fillory’s magical wellspring to its original state so that magic can exist independent of assistance from the fairies.

Threat Level: Medium

Margo could be considered fairly dangerous given her magical abilities, but she is unlikely to hurt anyone unless provoked. Of course, if you take into consideration her temper and fragile pride, she is more easily provoked than others.

Notes: Margo is talented in magic. This means that she can brew a selection of potions, charm items or substances, cast spells, or even levitate things. She is not the most talented witch she knows, but she is capable in her own right. She will be bringing clothes and her crown with her.
