Lady Margaret "Meg" Colborne is the youngest child only daughter of Gregory Colborne, the 11th Duke of Rothbury and his wife, Penelope, and sister to Sebastian Colborne, the Earl of Falstone, and Lord Raphael Colborne.
Now aged 17, Meg was a surprise to the whole family including the Duke and Duchess, who rather infamously despise one another. Neither of her parents were particularly interested in her as a child, so she grew up fairly isolated at the family estate in Northumberland. Meg tried to make herself accomplished in the hopes of getting their attention, and when realised that it wouldn't she stopped trying and spent her time on her own pursuits. As a result, she has grown in a somewhat socially awkward young who likes books and mathematics. Her mother has brought her to London to informally introduce her to society before her official debut next Season, and she has cajoled both of her brothers, with whom she has a close relationship, into participating in society with her.
Meg's parents haven't left her with the best impression of marriage, but she knows finding a husband is her best chance of getting away from them so she hopes to find a suitable husband soon - her only real criteria being to find someone she doesn't actively dislike.
Meg is an NPC and belongs to Sarah.
