Maggie was an American companion of the Doctor.
Biography
Maggie originally worked a fortune-telling booth in an amusement park in America, which is where the Doctor, in a new, bearded incarnation, encountered her.
Together, they discovered that the engineer behind a new space ride that was being built was none other than the Doctor's old rival the Master, who had designed the machinery such that it would act as a teleporter to bring a large alien workforce to Earth; these allies of the Master's would then build a machine capable of destroying the Earth, but also, unbeknownst to them, their own planet.
Maggie subsequently became the Doctor's companion, continuing to wear her fortune-teller outfit. (NOTVALID: Winning Designs)
Behind the scenes
Maggie was designed and written as if popular actor Meryl Streep were to play the part, a casting suggested as the winning entry of the Doctor Who Casting Competition in DWM 108, a proposal submitted by Scott Sauber. Her costume and story were designed by Wanda Sue Morain and Mike Acord as the winning entry of a follow-up contest, the Doctor Who Design Competition, with the text and professional-grade illustrations of Winning Designs being the ultimate result. Sauber explained his choice of Meryl Streep for the companion in a hypothetical Doctor Who movie both by her being a box-office draw and by her perceived ability to bring a "questioning intelligence" to the part, countering the Brian Blessed Doctor's "devious eccentricity".
As Winning Designs does not constitute a story in its own right, it is not considered valid by this Wiki, and as such, neither is the existence of this picturesque new companion.
