Despite one of her nicknames being Mikey, Michael (and similar variations) was not Mickey's dead name. The nickname is a cheap attempt at misgendering more than anything, though it hardly affects her.
Mickey went to college, though dropped out in the middle of her second semester. She lived in the dorms, and was briefly involved in campus athletics.
Mickey's father was abusive, and there was no hard separation between work and home.
Mickey had a hyperfixation on robots as a child, and still does to an extent.
While listening to the radio, Mickey will often sing along.
A running joke is that everyone fails to notice that Mickey underwent surgery to treat her wounds, often just asking her "Did you do something with your hair?". She finds it humorous, often joking along with her peers.
Another recurring joke is Mickey's apparent lack of technical expertise and electronics. She just isn't great at hacking.
Mickey was placed into a men's correctional facility after the events of Saint's Row, as evidence by Carlos and all other inmates being male. This is deliberate and transphobic, and Mickey knows damn well that it happened because of the judge who sentenced her.
Despite holding herself accountable for most of her actions, Mickey will often say that she told her therapist that she wasn't entirely responsible for the awful things she does, and it's like someone is controlling her. These are delusional thoughts that stem from PTSD-induced depersonalization.
Mickey rarely talked when first joining the Saints, mostly out of fear. She had just escaped her father's abuse and found herself in a line of work similar to his. Eventually, she overcomes her fear and develops a bright, sociable personality with the Saints members.
Born and raised within Stilwater, Mickey lived a tough life in the city's lower district. Her father sold drugs and involved himself heavily in illicit businesses, such as dog fighting, where many deals that went wrong resulted in the death of Mickey's mother. Her father was the one to raise her for most of her childhood, but treated her more like a subordinate than his own child. He neglected her in every regard, going far as to forcing her to fight his dogs for food. The years of wear and tear took a toll on Mickey, and she would murder him on the evening of her 13th birthday. After the incident, she was left homeless after escaping the state's foster care system, and she quickly fell into similar lines of work to provide for herself. She sold drugs at the time to get food and always kept a gun with her as she was afraid of her father's past catching up to her.
Regardless of the circumstances of her upbringing, Mickey made a name for herself on the streets, though stuck to herself and initially refused to get involved in the constant underground warfare between factions, convincing herself that it was unecessary for her to rely on groups to fend for herself. This solitude didn't last, though, and Mickey's whole world would change on one fateful day.

SAINTS ROW
When walking through the district of Saint's Row in the city of Stilwater, Mickey ignores a watch seller and walks up to a prostitute, but soon, she is caught up in a small turf war between the city's criminal factions. Despite trying to keep her distance, a Vice Kings gang member attempts to kill her after the violent battle. Julius Little and Troy Bradshaw, from the small-time street gang the 3rd Street Saints, save her from his execution, with Troy killing the small-time hoodlum. Julius invites her to meet the gang at the church in Saint's Row if she is interested, seeing as they need all the help they can get.
At the Saints Row Church, Mickey is initiated into the gang by surviving a beatdown by Saints members. Julius informs the gang that it is time to take the fight to the three rival gangs: Los Carnales, Westside Rollerz, and the Vice Kings.
Mickey builds up her Rep with the Saints by showing she means business, whether through causing mayhem, holding-up stores, borrowing money from loan sharks, hijacking vehicles for money, collecting CDs, tagging places, assassinating people just for cash, stealing vehicles so he can take them to a chop shop, holding civilians hostage in their cars for money, killing pimps, stealing their hos, and taking them to a brothel, driving hookers around while avoiding paparazzi, IRS, significant others, and private investigators while the hooker has sex with a client, competing in illegal street races, and protecting drug dealers while they sell their product.
While trying to take the three main gangs out of commission, Mickey mainly works with the 4 Saint Lieutenants: Johnny Gat, who's a shoot first ask questions never kinda guy. Dex, who usually likes to plan 3 moves ahead. Lin, who somewhat unhappily uses her feminine side to her advantage. And Troy, who makes up his lack of expertise by his enthusiasm.
During the campaign against the Carnales, Mickey takes down Hector and Angelo Lopez. While fighting the Vice Kings, Mickey saves Benjamin King from Anthony Green, then helps him overthrow Tanya Winters. In the campaign against the Westside Rollerz, both William Sharp and Joseph Price meet their ends at the hands of Mickey.
Mickey gets to know Johnny Gat, Dex, Lin and Troy while helping take down the three gangs, and is appointed by Julius as his right-hand man. Julius soon thereafter ends up being arrested by the police, and Mickey thus becomes the de facto leader of the gang.
Chief Monroe, a corrupt police chief, orders Mickey, Dex and Johnny to do a little "community service" or he will kill Julius. Mickey steals a campaign bus with Marshall Winslow inside and parks it on the train tracks.
During Winslow's funeral, Mickey kills Monroe. Richard Hughes, Winslow's rival, phoned Mickey to meet him on the Yacht. Richard's plan was to redevelop the Saints Row community, and was given the go ahead after the Saints made a name for themselves. Mickey was about to get killed by Hughes' men, but Julius pressed the remote setting off the explosives he planted, killing Hughes and putting Mickey into a coma.
SAINTS ROW 2
Five years after being put in a coma, Mickey awakes inside a prison hospital. There she meets fellow convict Carlos Mendoza, who got himself shanked to meet her and helps her escape the prison island. On the way, Carlos informs hwe that a lot of things have changed while Mickey was comatose. Carlos explains that the Saints fell apart without anyone to lead them, and dropped their flags before they were killed, and the chaos allowed for new gangs to take control of the city, as well as the rise of the Ultor Corporation that practically took control of the inefficient and corrupt police force. He advises Mickey to lay low for a while.
While having a beer in Tee'N'Ay, Mickey watches a news broadcast about Johnny Gat, who is about to be executed for 387 murders as well as the attempted murder of Troy Bradshaw, who became chief of police. After breaking him out of his court appearance, she drops Johnny off at his girlfriend, Aisha's house, where they have a beer and plan on taking back their city once again by first taking over the condemned hotel under a mission house. Three new gangs have taken control: The Brotherhood of Stilwater controlling the south, the Sons of Samedi taking all central Stilwater, and the Ronin having a tight grip up north. Their first move is to get a new hideout. This time, it's an old underground hotel in Old Stilwater beneath an abandoned mission house. After "evicting the current tenants", they get new lieutenants and slowly take back what was once theirs, and defeat the three gangs.
During the conflict with the Ronin, Mickey defeats the lieutenant Jyunichi in a sword fight for killing Aisha, helps Johnny Gat to get revenge on Shogo Akuji, and leaves Kazuo Akuji to die on a burning boat.
As part of the struggle against The Brotherhood, Mickey kills Carlos to put him out of his misery. She then murders Matt, as well as Maero in a final showdown in the Stilwater Arena.
While battling the Sons of Samedi, Mickey murders Veteran Child, Mr. Sunshine, and The General.
Mickey sneaks into the police station and listens to recorded wiretap conversations between Troy, Dex, and Julius, and discovers that Julius planted the bomb on the yacht. After discovering Dex's phone number in Julius' file, she calls Dex, who tells her to meet him at the Saints Row Church. At the church, Julius is waiting, who was also told to go there by Dex. As Mickey is about to kill Julius, the Masako attack them both. After fighting waves of Masako, they escape to the Thalia Amiptheatre and fight more Masako. After defeating all of the Masako, Mickey shoots Julius in the chest, wounding him. They argue about what the Saints became, before Mickey shoots Julius in the head.
After taking back the city, Mickey is ambushed at Club Koi by Masako, and Shaundi and Pierce are kidnapped. After escaping the ambush and rescuing Shaundi and Pierce, they all meet up with Johnny Gat and plan to assault The Pyramid, Ultor's secret facility built underneath Mount Claflin. They hope to expose Ultor's plans for the city, and to destroy their weapons and warheads. Mickey and Johnny head there, and destroy the facility. Pierce gives Mickey a hint that Ultor executives are meeting on a yacht, so Mickey goes to the yacht and kills the executives and guards. Dane Vogel watches the assassination of the Ultor executives from his top floor office in the Phillips Building.
Vogel holds a press conference outside the Saints Row Church about the incident, and Mickey and Johnny plan an assassination. Johnny is spotted by a guard who followed him to the rooftop, and accidentally shoots the sniper rifle in the struggle, which alerts Vogel and his bodyguards. Mickey rushes towards Vogel with a pistol, while Johnny takes down any resistance after throwing the guard off the rooftop. Mickey jumps onto Vogel's limo, but is shaken off, and is forced to assault Vogel by hijacking an attack helicopter. Mickey takes out the power stations on the Phillips Building, and eventually jumps out of the helicopter, onto the top floor, where she confronts Dane. Vogel tries to reason with Mickey, who responds by shooting her in the mouth, sending her through the window.
After Tobias arrives in his helicopter to pick up Shaundi, Pierce, and Mickey, Pierce asks "So...what do we do now?", in which Mickey responds "This is our city, we can do whatever the fuck we want to do." and they fly off into the city.
Sometime later, a former Ultor employee Tera decides to help the Saints with exposing the darker side of Ultor. Mickey helps Tera dig up dead bodies used for experimentation in order to bring down Ultor. After, Mickey is instructed to hijack a truck that has classified Ultor chemicals to try and persuade Jane Valderamma to run the story. However all the effort turns out to be for naught as Jane purposely claims Tera the one responsible with the reasoning that Ultor would just bury the story anyway.
With that lead gone, the new CEO of Ultor, Eric Gryphon, comes to Mickey for protection from Dex, who Gryphon fears will make an attempt on his life. Mickey reluctantly agrees and saves him from being killed by a Masako team sent by Dex. Eric tells Mickey about toxic waste that Dex is going to sell. Along with some Ultor security team members at the power plant, Mickey helps Gryphon capture the shipment. Dex later flees Stilwater after getting an emergency transfer to another city. Angry and knowing she can't get Dex, Mickey asks Eric for names of people that Dex was close to and then kills them. Mickey then swears to Eric that she will find out which city Dex fled to and kill him. Mickey also assures that the hostilities between the 3rd Street Saints and Ultor are over, as long as Ultor don't try to come after them.
SAINTS ROW: THE THIRD
Some years later, the 3rd Street Saints became a household name in Stilwater and partnered up with the Ultor Corporation.
After many years on the top, Mickey, Johnny Gat, Shaundi, and an actor named Josh Birk rob the Stilwater 1st National Bank as a publicity stunt. The robbery goes wrong and they are arrested by SWAT.
Unbeknownst to them, the bank is owned by Phillipe Loren, the leader of Morningstar and the chairman of The Syndicate, so the Saints are taken to meet Loren onboard his Gawalek A36 jet over Steelport. After being given a chance to give a share of their profits to the Syndicate, they refuse and break free. Johnny takes control of the plane and fights off Phillipe, being killed in the process, allowing Shaundi and Mickey time to jump out the plane. After fighting more members of the Morningstar in the air, they land in Steelport where Phillipe has Matt Miller, leader of the Deckers, hack into the Saints' accounts and empty them.
Mickey and Shaundi raid the local Guard Armory and call Pierce to bring the Saints to Steelport. Mickey and Pierce drive to get acquainted with Steelport, and end up in a battle with a group of Morningstar members and their Brute. Mickey later parachutes into a Morningstar penthouse to take it over, then chases a fleeing gang member with an Oppressor in order to disarm a bomb. After taking the Penthouse, Mickey and Pierce buy property belonging to the Morningstar using deeds recovered from their lockbox.
After multiple encounters with the Morningstar, the Saints strike at their headquarters, the Syndicate Tower, and Phillipe is indirectly killed by Mickey. In the tower, they meet a test subject named Oleg that the Syndicate were using to clone brutes, and he joins the Saints.
Mickey and the Saints return to Stilwater to bury Johnny, but are attacked by Luchadores working for Killbane, who destroy the Hughes Memorial Bridge before the Saints can get across, causing Mickey, Shaundi, Pierce and Oleg to end up in the river. Oleg reveals the Saints are not ready to fight the Syndicate and he knows people that can help. When Mickey arrives back in Steelport along with Pierce and Shaundi, she finds ex-FBI agent Kinzie Kensington who is being held by the Deckers, Zimos who was being held at Safeword in the "Pony Barn", and rescues ex-Luchador member Angel De LaMuerte from Killbane's Luchadores.
After recruiting the three new lieutenants, Mickey gives the 3rd Street Saints a speech that the Syndicate will have to answer for what they have done. At the same time, Killbane takes over the Syndicate.
Mickey is called to the Saints HQ by Shaundi when Pierce throws a party, which angers her due to Johnny's recent death, though Mickey agrees with Pierce that they can't mourn Gat forever. During the party its revealed that the strippers are working for the Morningstar and try to kill the Saints, but Mickey manages to fight them off. After, Mickey goes to see Zimos at his crib and says its time to take down the Morningstar. She poses as a sex slave to be auctioned off at Safeword and, once the Saints and Zimos get in, she disables the security to allow more Saints to takeover and wipe out the remaining Morningstar, and then claims Safeword as the Saint's own. After getting a tip off from Viola DeWynter, who was Loren's right hand, Mickey and Zimos invade a Morningstar cargo ship to collect prostitutes being smuggled in. After gathering the prostitutes, Mickey receives a phone call from Matt Miller offering to buy back the prostitutes, and she brings them to the brothel at Saints HQ, hoping it it's safer for them there.
Mickey and Oleg go to meet Viola at the park who offers to help the Saints in order to make Killbane suffer, but the meeting is interrupted by STAG who have been sent to take down the gangs of Steelport. Mickey escapes back to the Saints HQ while Oleg fights off the STAG who are attacking. After that, she starts destroying STAG bases and kidnaps Josh Birk, whose character (Nyte Blayde) is being used as a mascot for STAG. Mickey attracts STAG to the Saints HQ for a massive fight, and at the end is approached by STAG commander Cyrus Temple who asks for her to return Birk to STAG and states that they will keep the attention off the Saints for the while. When Mickey refuses to back down, STAG begins destroying the Saints HQ. When Shaundi is captured by Cyrus' second-in-command, Kia to be taken for question, Mickey uses 'Image As Designed' to take on the appearance of Cyrus, and takes Pierce and Viola as prisoners to the STAG's aircraft carrier, the Thermopylae, where they rescue Shaundi and destroy the carrier. However this increases STAG presence as they declare martial law in Steelport. When Mickey hijacks a plane containing new weapons that STAG is flying in, she accidentally destroys the cockpit, so they escape in a tank out the back. After hijacking a second tank in midair, Mickey crashes onto Arapice Island, but falling corpses and debris destroy containers in the Ultor Chemical and Waste Disposal Plant, which releases a green gas that turns the dead corpses into zombies. Mickey and Viola go to see Steelport Mayor Burt Reynolds, who asks for the Saints help in dealing with the zombie problem, which Mickey happily accepts. After arriving back on Arapice Island, Mickey submerges three containers in the water, and is told to destroy a chemical truck by Reynolds. She does as instructed, and Cyrus arrives along with STAG to deal with the remaining zombies.
Mickey and Shaundi later find out from Kinzie that Killbane framed the Saints for the attack on the memorial bridge back in Stilwater and begins badmouthing the Saints name on air. The duo travel around Steelport to track down where the broadcast is coming from and then chase down Killbane's car in a helicopter, but before Shaundi can take a shot at him, the helicopter malfunctions and crashes, causing Killbane to escape. Mickey steals a powerful computer from STAG before Matt Miller's Deckers get a hold of it and then a chair from the Deckers in order to go up against them. After this, Mickey enters into the Decker's usernet and defeats Matt Miller's avatar, but spares Matt's life when he offers to hack into a company to give Mickey discounts, and will walk away.
Mickey meets with Viola, Shaundi and Pierce, and Viola reveals the best way to defeat Killbane is to unmask and humiliate him at Murderbrawl. Mickey kills off Killbane's upcoming opponents in order for her to enter into Murderbrawl and face Killbane. Using a RC Possessor to control vehicles, she uses them on cars, boats and a helicopter containing wrestlers to kill them and make it look like an accident, which leaves her as the last opponent for Killbane. After getting Angel's mask back at the 3 Count casino and taking it over for the Saints, Mickey helps Angel defeat Killbane at Murderbrawl, humiliating him.
During Mickey's remaining takeover of Steelport, she manages to take over the Downtown, New Colvin, Carver Island and Stanfield districts, finally taking control of Steelport.
After the Murderbrawl match and Killbane's downfall, a war spirals out between the STAG and Killbane's Luchadores, so Mickey, Pierce and Oleg travel around Steelport to help contain the attacks by killing off STAG and Luchadore members. During this, Mickey gets a phone call from Angel saying Killbane is attempting to flee Steelport, but then gets another call from Kia that a monument will be blown up, which has fellow Saints in it along with Shaundi, Viola and Burt.
When she goes to save Shaundi at the monument, she removes bombs planted around it with Sonic Boom before facing off with Kia, who has Shaundi at gunpoint, but manages to kill Kia, saving Shaundi, Viola and Burt, and preventing the Saints being set up as terrorists by STAG. After leaving the monument, Mickey, Pierce and Shaundi are surrounded by photographers, and Cyrus attempts to have Mickey arrested, but Monica Hughes steps in declaring the Saints as heroes for saving the monument, allowing them to walk. Cyrus warns Mickey that he will be back if the Saints slip up again, and Mickey leaves with Shaundi and Pierce after saying " I love you too ."
Mickey eventually stars in the Gangstas in Space movie, filming a scene where she leads the 3rd Street Saints on Mars to kill General Killbane.
SAINTS ROW IV
Mickey, along with Pierce and Shaundi, eventually go on a joint counter-terrorist operation with Asha Odekar and her handler, Matt Miller, to take down Cyrus Temple, who has gone AWOL and turned terrorist. But Mickey finds that her combat suit's microphone was malfunctioning, rendering her unable to speak. Mickey personally fights hand-to-hand with Cyrus, managing to kill him, but not before the former STAG commander launches a nuclear missile targeted for Washington D.C. Mickey, without thinking, boards the missile and disables it mid-flight, leaping off it as it explodes and lands right in the Oval Office in the White House.
Five years later, Mickey is sworn in as the President of the United States of America, with Keith David as her vice-president and members of the Saints as cabinet members. Early on in this role, Mickey had impulsively angered half of America by publicly joking and saying, "I'm the patron Saint of America. We should probably look to changing the Pledge of Allegiance to One Nation Under Me", to the annoyance of the other Saints. Just as she was about to attend a press conference to deal with this PR disaster, Shaundi informs her that Asha and Matt had arrived to warn them of an impending alien invasion, since MI6 refused to believe them. Mickey fails to take this seriously before actual aliens attack. Their leader, Zinyak, claims that the best and brightest among humanity shall be spared. As Kinzie quickly claimed to be smarter than everyone in the press room, the alien overlord beams her up. Mickey and Shaundi attempt to rescue her but Secret Service pin her to the floor while Shaundi is captured. Mickey shakes them off and runs through the White House as members of the Saints are abducted. Getting outside, Mickey mounts an anti-air turret and begins shooting down UFOs, ultimately shooting down Zinyak's ship. She goes head-to-head with Zinayk but is ultimately defeated by the alien's superhuman powers.
Mickey later wakes up in what appears to be a 50s sitcom set in the city of Steelport, devoid of violence or foul language. She realizes this when the simulation starts glitching. She then hears Kinzie's voice, explaining that each of the Saints are imprisoned in their own virtual nightmares. She conjures weapons for Mickey to cause disruption to the simulation. This draws the attention of Zinyak, who throws Mickey into a Zin-dominated version of Steelport, threatening to destroy the Earth if she tries to escape.
Nonetheless, Mickey escapes with help from Kinzie and meets her and Keith as he escapes aboard a stolen Zin ship. But as they head back to Earth to gather reinforcements, Zinyak upholds his threat by destroying the planet. Determined to avenge the Earth, Mickey goes back into the simulation to rescue the other Saints and find a way to get to Zinyak. After saving the other saints with the help of C.I.D., Mickey learns that Johnny Gat is still alive. After being warned that rescuing Johnny will most likely reveal her location, Mickey still rescues Johnny from his personal nightmare of constantly losing Aisha and brings him to the ship. After rescuing Johnny, Mickey and her crew are ready to overload the simulation, but is ambushed by Zinyak's army with Zinyak capturing Kinzie. Mickey then learns that Keith betrayed her and hid the MI6 agents in a closet to fool them in order to restore Earth. Mickey, pissed to hell and back, chases Keith David, but is cornered by Zen and was about to be killed until Keith pulled a heelface turn saving Mickey. With the help of Rowdy Roddy Piper, Mickey saves Keith David and goes on to save Kinzie from the same 50s era nightmare she had been in before, where on the ship, she later punches her for mocking her in a poodle skirt.
With everyone rallied, Mickey leads a charge against Zinyak starting by overloading the simulation. After the simulation is overloaded, Mickey races to face Zinyak with power armor stolen from the Zin armory.
After a lengthly battle against Zinyak, Mickey beheads Zinyak and takes over the Zin empire for herself. She learns through Zinyak's servant, Zinjai, that the Zin have a way to time travel, allowing them to go back in time before the Earth was destroyed, as well as releasing Jane Austen.
