Marcy Long

Marcy Long is a settler traveling with Preston Garvey and his group in the Commonwealth $$ She is first met taking refuge in the Museum of Freedom in Concord.

Background
A refugee from the Quincy Ruins following Preston Garvey's lead, Long has steadily seen everything in her life go to pieces. Originally a settler in Quincy, she is married to Jun Long, with whom she had a son, Kyle. Both Marcy and Jun were skeptical of Mama Murphy's sudden visions of Quincy's destruction, cutting her off, but not before Mayor Jackson requested Minutemen assistance.

Although Jun considered the Minutemen freeloaders, he changed his mind when Colonel Ezra Hollis arrived, routing a Gunner detachment trying to take Quincy by surprise. Marcy, on the other hand, was concerned that despite the rout, there were too few minutemen to defend the town against a larger, more coordinated attack. Hollis' assurances did not ease her mind.

When Gunners attacked Quincy again, blowing up the highway and attacking with the height advantage, she was proven right. Only a small group managed to get away under Preston's lead, including Marcy, her husband, son, and shirts on their backs. The desperate flight across the Commonwealth took its toll: Gunners chased them away from Quincy, feral ghouls from Lexington and eventually, raiders cornered the few remaining survivors at Concord.
