Character Name: Margo Hanson
Canon: The Magicians
Canon Information: wiki
Canon Point: 4x3
Age: 25
God Houses: Mimir is probably the best bet because Margo is fantastic at manipulation, getting what she wants with what she's got as well as planning and strategy, coming up with plans or throwing an amazing party.

Tyr is next up because Margo is brave even when she's scared. And when it comes to diplomacy... she wavers back and forth. As queen of Fillory, she struggled with being diplomatic when emotions came involved but the whole reason she was voted High Queen was that she was able to bridge some gaps.

Personality: On the surface, Margo falls into that trope of the bitch with a heart of gold. Although Margo is generally kind of an asshole, speaking straight even when it will definitely hurt feelings, she has her many moments of sincerity. She cares deeply for her friends, her loyalty cannot be bested and she also sincerely wants to do right by Fillory and her subjects, even when they're technically not her subjects anymore.

Brutal honesty is her strongest suit, she doesn't sugar coat things for people even when it might be in the best interest of everyone. Ever the pragmatist/realist, she is often the voice of reason for the group. Margo is the most willing to fight dirty compared to the main gang, she's more willing to offer up bigger sacrifices for the greater good or to volunteer for the more dirty/tough jobs.

And despite seemingly being a superficial party girl, she is an expert magician and an excellent observer. You see, Margo has transformed from Mean Girl trope to the steely, badass High King of Fillory. She is a woman who knows herself, who sees herself with all her flaws, and likes herself most of the time, anyway. She’s been dealt her share of bad hands in life but every bad hand has forged Margo into the bad bitch she is today.

Margo has, by far, the filthiest mouth on the show especially whenever she's angry. She's also a master of pop culture references and a fierce feminist, forever stanning the fact that women's anatomy is stronger than a man's (she says things like "don't be a cock" instead of "don't be a pussy" or "ovary up" instead of "sack up") and not abiding by anyone with sexist attitudes.

There are parts of Margo that just will never be broken, they’re so strong, she knows who she is so thoroughly.

She has fought gods and won. She was voted in as High King of Fillory. She has fought elves and turned them into allies. She has loved and lost friends and even her own eye (speaking of: after making a deal with the fairies, she loses an eye but eventually she gets a fairy eye as a replacement). She can be the best, most loyal friend you've ever had or the worst enemy you never wanted.
