Trivia

  • Maggie Holt is a character from Wildbow's later web serial; Pact. Many of the details line up with the story, although largly as a side character.
  • The web serial Pact references Weaver Dice as a popular game, implying that the Parahumans universe is as equally fictional in the Pact universe as Maggie Holt is in Parahumans.<ref>Weaver Dice - Pact Wiki</ref>
