Mod:Fallout: The Frontier/Mae Caufield

Mae Caufield is a resident of Irvington. She is the rebellious daughter of Candy Caufield and Stan. She has an ill brother named Gregg.

She is very sardonic and hints that Mae is not her true name. She is close friends with Chloe Zaris who lived with the Caufields when they were growing up.

Background
Mae is a delinquent who has, for example, repeatedly defaced the graves in the town. Zaris is considering exiling Mae from the town if her behavior keeps up.

According to a memo:

"Mae Caufield is almost certainly depressed, though it doesn't seem clinical. Rather, it seems to stem from her general boredom with the town and its inhabitants. This boredom manifests itself violently through vandalism and general indecency. This behavior has only grown worse as she has gotten older. Mae's mental state has been dramatically worsened by her parents. They are excessively controlling, and give Mae little to no freedom. Every aspect of her life is controlled when she is with her parents. This is required when dealing with their son Gregg due to his condition, but Mae, despite her mother's insistence, does not have this condition. I have the blood tests to prove it. Ms. Caufield claims that Mae friend, Chloe, is the driving force being Mae's more violent episodes. Ironically, I find Chloe Zaris to be a good influence on Mae. Chloe helps redirect her aggression in more positive ways, such as art."

Quotes

 * "I'm just bored and hungry. I'm hungored."

Trivia
Category:Characters Category:Legacy characters
 * Mae is supposed to be parody/satire of creative, albeit lewd, rebellious teenage girls or 2010s hipsters who frequent sites like Tumblr.
 * Mae originally sarcastically joked about the Courier taking her virginity. She mentioned she was not yet 18, that she found the town very boring, and that she couldn't wait to do drugs and sex later. In her free time, she said she liked to draw, especially porn. The Courier could ask to buy some of her porn, but she declines, saying Chloe gets dibs.
 * These lines were removed in a patch because many people found this content cringey and iffy, contrasting the more serious nature of the rest of the story. A representative for the mod commented, "We have made changes to America and Mae's content. We have removed the Slavery lines, and the lines from Mae that were inappropriate. We recognize that these topics were not handled tactfully, however, there was never any malicious intent behind the writing of the lines."
 * Her name seems to be a blend of the characters Mae Borowski and Max Caulfield who come from video games about coming-of-age. Supporting this, Mae has a brother named Gregg and it is mentioned she hangs out with a Chloe.
 * Tgspy said that Mae would have been removed in the rework.
