Mae Borowski has a troubled past, primarily with depression and anger issues. Her emotional turmoil is later revealed to be a byproduct of dissociation. She's snarky and, at first, short with those around her, even referring to herself as "a jerk." As the game progresses, she becomes slightly more compassionate, sometimes comforting others who question their personal worth. 

Possibly due to her depression, Mae is rather nostalgic and often reminisces about Possum Springs as it was when she left for college. She often reflects on how much has changed since she's been away.

After being prescribed to do so by Dr. Hank, Mae keeps a journal.

Mae has been confirmed to be pansexual.
