Frank Q and Maggie My

A married couple — whom Carl takes for police by their bearing — who stumbled into the dungeon with their teenage daughter and were told by their guide that the only way to survive was to kill other crawlers. Frank has three skulls when Carl meets him; Maggie has five. Their daughter, Yvette, would not.

First appears: Book 1

Series arc

As of book 3. A threat, then a tragedy, then a promise. In book 3 Frank is alone at a bar, one-handed, drinking: Maggie left him after the Maestro's show, took her class without him, and still has the Find Crawler potion. His revenge on Carl is a gift, the Ring of Divine Suffering, and the truth about Yvette: she wore it, Maggie chose Carl as the mark, and her mother killed her because she could not heal. Chris kills him in the club. Maggie is still out there.

Through book 1

Introduced as a threat (B1 ch. 20), revealed as a tragedy (B1 ch. 43), and left as a promise: Maggie's Find Crawler potion and 'I am going to watch you die. You and the fucking cat.' Zev rates the storyline tired; the book gives Maggie the last smile.

Through book 2

Not met; Mordecai prices Maggie's potion at millions (B2 ch. 2); still on Donut's list of enemies (B2 ch. 24).

Through book 3

Frank alone, a one-handed Night Elf drinking at station 101: Maggie left him, took her class alone and has the Find Crawler potion. His revenge is a gift — the Ring of Divine Suffering — and the truth about Yvette: she wore it, Maggie chose Carl as her mark, and when she could not heal her mother killed her (B3 ch. 19). Chris kills him in the club (B3 ch. 20). Maggie is still out there.

By book

Frank Q and Maggie My in book 1 — Dungeon Crawler Carl

Frank Q's name is over Rebecca W's corpse in ch. 13. In ch. 20 he steps out of a safe-room bathroom with a plausible ICE story and Maggie My steps out of stealth with a pistol; the system freezes them for shooting in a safe room and Carl leaves lit dynamite in a rat for them. The Maestro's footage (ch. 43) tells the truth: their guide told them the only way to survive was to kill crawlers; they ambushed a group as a family; their daughter Yvette never took part; Frank pulled the dynamite from the rat with Yvette behind him and lost a hand; Maggie strangled her wounded daughter — for the experience, Carl accuses, since the girl would have healed; 'You didn't get the whole story,' Maggie answers. Frank ends the book a hollow man who will not look up; Maggie ends it with a Legendary potion that will let her find any crawler by name, a vow to watch Carl and the cat die, and her first smile. Zev's assessment: it has potential, but nobody thinks they will live long enough.

Frank Q and Maggie My in book 2 — Carl's Doomsday Scenario

Mordecai tells Carl that Maggie should sell the Legendary Skill Potion if she has half a brain (ch. 2); Carl watches for skulls in the ruins (ch. 18) and Donut lists her among their enemies under the glass case (ch. 24). Not seen.

Frank Q and Maggie My in book 3 — The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook

Frank alone at the Desperado Club bar, which he has not left since getting off at station 101: a Night Elf Blood Assassin, level 17, one hand, a Seahawks beanie, blitz sticks. Maggie left him after the Maestro's show, took her class without him, blocked him, he thinks, and has the Find Crawler potion. His revenge is the Ring of Divine Suffering and the story that goes with it: he made Yvette wear it, Maggie chose Carl as her mark, and when the dynamite hurt her she could not heal, so her mother killed her. Customs Enforcement and Seattle PD, five years separated, a sheriff's parking lot at two in the morning (ch. 19). Chris kills him in the club and walks out (ch. 20).
