* UndyingLoyalty: She has the reputation of being the most loyal first mate in history.

* AndroclesLion: Maisie cutting the line on her (and Jacob letting her) earns them her lifelong loyalty. She saves them from Captain Crow, a giant crab monster, and even gives them a ride back to civilization.



* ItCanThink: She is far more intelligent than she initially appears, bordering on SapientCetaceans at points. Not only is she capable of understanding that Maisie saved her and [[AndroclesLion decides to save her in turn]], Maisie and Jacob are able to communicate with her by miming, she shows tactical thinking in all of her battles, and she's capable of singling out captains from crews for her grudge against monster hunters. Overall, she seems less like an unusually smart animal and more like a person with a language barrier.



* CatSmile: He has a wide mouth that curves this way.


Added DiffLines:

* PlayfulCatSmile: He has a wide mouth that curves this way, and is certainly very playful.

Added DiffLines:

* PirateGirl: Maisie is a stereotypical one, as an orphan whose parents died at sea, who stowed away on the ''Inevitable'' because she wanted to have adventures like them. She is begrudgingly accepted into the crew (because of her age, not her gender) and eventually learns that it's a far less romantic job than she had thought. The ship's crew are monster hunters rather than pirates, but they [[DressedToPlunder might as well be]] pirates.
