“ | Maggie Mako has the sweetest tooth of any of the Nightmare Critters. In fact, she will go absolutely bonkers for anything with sugar. Diet, schmiet. This girl doesn’t have time for healthy eating. | ” |
— Maggie Mako's twitter intro |
Maggie Mako[1] is one of the Nightmare Critters, a group of eight characters created by Playtime Co. who (presumably) serve as the antithesis of the Smiling Critters. She is presumed to have been made into a toy by Playtime Co. and might be featured in Chapter 4 as an antagonist.
Appearance[]
Maggie Mako is an anthropomorphic shark, characterized by turquoise skin that complements her thin eyebrows and expressive black eyes, which (like the other Nightmare Critters) are furrowed into a permanent glare. Her features extend to teal claws, feet, head fin, and tail (the upper portion of which contains a small triangular divot), while a touch of white graces her lower jaw, belly, and markings surrounding her eyes. In line with the other Nightmare Critters (and the Smiling Critters), Maggie sports a perpetual wide grin with a darkened inner mouth but possesses sharp triangular teeth. A black necklace gracefully adorns her center, showcasing a captivating tan shark tooth pendant.
Personality[]
“ | Maggie is always thinking about her belly. She's happiest with food in her mouth, and believe us, she's NOT picky. She LOVES sweets, but veggies? Yuck. Don't be surprised if she takes your "health eating habits" advice with a dabble of sugar, some chocolate syrup, whipped cream and a big cherry on top, all while laughing at you profusely. | ” |
— Maggie Mako's character description[1] |
According to her character description, Maggie Mako is the food lover of the Nightmare Critters. Her thoughts primarily revolve around her stomach, specifically its contents and whether or not it is full. Her highest levels of joy only blossom when she is gorging on food, and she is not finicky about her meals. Unfortunately, her eating habits consist mostly of sugary substances, as she possesses a serious sweet tooth. Maggie abhors vegetables and could not care less about healthy eating. In fact, she will openly mock anyone who attempts to give her advice on this topic.
Trivia[]
- Maggie Mako was the eighth and final Nightmare Critter to have her description revealed on Twitter (X).
- Maggie is the first critter to be based off a fully aquatic creature.
- The aquatic creature she is based on is the mako shark, hence her name.
- The scent of chocolate triggers relaxation and overall happier moods.
- Chocolate is also a symbol of gluttony, which Maggie is particularly known for.
- Maggie's inverse may be PickyPiggy, as the latter encourages healthy eating and teaches kids about the importance of a healthy body, while Maggie doesn't care about being healthy and will primarily eat items like sugary foods.
- Maggie Mako, Baba Chops, Rabie Baby, Allister Gator, Simon Smoke and Touille are the only Nightmare Critters to have visible teeth.
- Maggie Mako, Baba Chops, Allister Gator and Touille are the only critters who display a specific type of bone in their pendants. In Maggie Mako's case, her pendant is a shark tooth.
- Maggie, Simon, and Allister are the only critters with actual names.
- Interestingly, Maggie Mako lacks a dorsal fin on her back, which all sharks typically have.
- Additionally, Maggie has fingers on her pectoral fins, which traditional sharks do not have.
- Despite her addiction do sugary sweets, in a new image posted by Mob Entertainment for Halloween, Maggie is seen showing her bag of candy to Yarnaby. Which could give off the allusion that either she also likes sharing sweets with others, despite just hoarding it to herself, or she's just trick-or-treating with Yarnaby.
