Madeline then encourages herself again as the level ends. However, the Bird teaches Madeline how to dash before she falls, allowing Madeline to reach solid ground. Immediately afterwards, Madeline tries to cross a bridge which collapses as she runs across it, causing her to begin to fall. Before Madeline leaves, the Old Woman warns Madeline that Madeline might not be ready for Celeste Mountain, but Madeline dismisses the Old Woman as crazy and leaves. After passing a few challenges with the help of a Bird (who teaches Madeline how to climb), Madeline encounters an Old Woman, who Madeline gets directions to Celeste Mountain from. Madeline mentally encourages herself to continue on her journey before entering a snowy area. She comes to Celeste Mountain to challenge herself and to find motivation in her actions by reaching the summit of the mountain, despite both her own problems and the dangers of climbing the Mountain. There's little we know about Madeline's past.

Still, she presses on, determined to drive out unwanted thoughts from her own mind and take control of her life even when it's pointless and harmful. Her courage is noted by other characters, some even berating her and calling her foolish, warning her to turn back before she gets herself hurt. Madeline is shown to be strong-willed and determined yet heavily conflicted, climbing the mountain to spite herself.

In this version, she also has long red hair, pale skin, dark blue eyes, what is presumably a green snow jacket based on her design in the remake, and white boots. In Celeste Classic, Madeline appears considerably shorter, as well as having more cartoony proportions. According to Celeste's developers, Madeline is transgender. In her official art, she is shown reaching for a strawberry with wings. Throughout the events of the game, she wears an aqua snow jacket, dark grey pants, black and dark grey walking boots, and her brown climbing backpack equipped with a red sleeping mat and plastic water bottle. Madeline is a short, young Canadian woman with pale skin, brown eyes, and long thick burnt orange hair with one wayward curl.
