'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is one of '''{{clr|2|{{#Invoke:Survivors|getCountOfSurvivors}}}}''' {{IconLink|Survivors}} currently featured in ''{{IconLink|Dead by Daylight}}''.

She was introduced as a member of the original Survivor Quartet that released with the Game on 14 June 2016.


== Overview ==
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is an energetic Athlete, able to outrun most Killers.

Her personal Perks, {{IconLink|Quick & Quiet}}, {{IconLink|Sprint Burst}}, and {{IconLink|Adrenaline}}, give her advantages to escape chases and put distance between herself and the Killer.

She is all about escaping and avoiding bad situations. She can greatly surprise the Killer with her speed, when she is in a bad situation. 

Difficulty rating: '''{{clr|3|Easy}}'''<br>
''(based on only using her Unique Perks)''


== Lore ==
[[File:MT_charPreview.png|frameless|left|150x385px]]
:Additional Lore can be found in ''Tome IV - Conviction'': [[Eat Dust]].
''Perhaps it was her mother that had instilled the fierce streak in her or maybe it was her father that left them when she was a baby. Meg excelled at schoolwork but she was off the rails. Fortunately, an athletics coach encouraged her to channel her misspent energy on the track. She motivated herself into becoming a high school star and earned a scholarship to college. When her mother fell ill, Meg decided to give up her chance at college to care for the woman who had raised her. One summer’s day, on a long run deep in the woods, Meg vanished. Search as they did, they never found her body.''

''Meg is one of those who is just simply filled with energy. Unfocused and uncontrollable energy that had to come out. As a kid it came through rowdiness and rebellion. Someone had to focus Meg before something went terribly wrong. Fortunately, someone did. She started to run. Maybe from something undefined that fueled her energy. So to run equaled life. But to run now might attract those beings that crave the pain of others. But as she runs from something, instead of towards it, she understands something. She understands that speed is not of the essence. It’s reaching that finish line. Rather last but still breathing. She deludes whatever is out there as she glides through obstacles and fear, thus managing to stay alive.''{{-}}
