Margie has a normal personality so she is nice most of the time. She will often comment on the tidiness of her house and her clothes. Margie rarely gets upset but can be very kind. She worries about nothing other than hygiene and tidiness. Margie loves clothes shopping; she may ask for the player to get certain clothes for her, for a small reward. She also enjoys fossil hunting.
 +
 +
In {{PC|short}} Margie is described as always relaxed and cheerful, as if on vacation. In the film, she is characterized as an artist and an aspiring fashion designer who hopes to someday show her designs all over the world. She is presented as calm, collected, insightful, and physically strong. This has not carried over into the games. Her favorite saying in the English localization suggests she values practicality and sensibility.

*Margie makes a cameo appearance in the first E3 trailer of ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]''.

Margie's design is multifaceted. In a symbolic sense, a white elephant represents just rule and natural purity within central Asian countries like {{wp|India}}, {{wp|Burma}}, and {{wp|Thailand}}.
