Maisie Lockwood's History
Maisie is the biological daughter of Charlotte Lockwood. She was created by and born to Charlotte Lockwood. She was brought up and raised at Lockwood Manor in Northern California, the home of her grandfather Sir Benjamin Lockwood. Lockwood's housekeeper Iris was the one who primarily raised Maisie due to Lockwood's advanced age and ailing health. Maisie also grew up with Eli Mills - a businessman entrusted in safeguarding the Lockwood Fortune - as a supervising figure.
Although brought up as Lockwood's granddaughter, Maisie's true origin was that of a genetic clone of Charlotte Lockwood, Sir Benjamin's daughter who was one of InGen's scientists and decided to fulfill her desires of motherhood by creating a duplicate of herself and carrying her to term. Charlotte also developed a treatment that would clean Maisie's DNA from a genetic disease that ended up killing Charlotte when her daughter was very young. It also turns out that Maisie's origins were the cause of the falling-out between Benjamin, who took the fall for Charlotte in order to protect his daughter and granddaughter, and his partner
John Hammond, who opposed human cloning.
A fan of dinosaurs, whose skeletons and imagery are very present in the mansion, Maisie would at times pretend to be one ambushing Iris.
Maisie has more recently been raised by her adoptive parents,
Owen and
Claire, in an isolated cabin in an attempt to protect her from people who might want her because of her status as a clone, which has her feeling frustrated with her parents/guardians' over-protectiveness but knows they're just looking out for her. However, Maisie was struggling to know who she is and wanted answers about her biological mother that her adopted parents couldn't give her.
