She was originally known as a mysterious girl who is fixated on Kanon Shibuya. She is a member of KALEIDOSCORE, a sub-unit under Liella!, and she is also a new member of the group herself. She debuted with the song Butterfly Wing when she was still a solo idol. Her image color is lavender.

Background
A girl from Vienna, Austria; the youngest daughter of an important musical family. She has been called a prodigy for singing since she was a little girl. In order to follow her older sisters' footsteps, Margarete tried to enroll in a prestigious music academy in Vienna, but she failed the entrance exam. However, Margarete's parents decided to give her a second chance, and they made a deal with her involving Love Live, which is famous enough for people in Vienna to know about it. If she wins first place in the Love Live, they will use their influence to get her admitted to the academy as a transfer student. Determined to achieve her dreams, Margarete decided to travel to Japan in order to participate in Love Live.

Appearance
Wien has a slim figure with long, purple hair that is curly, with half of her hair being in a braid along the top of her head. Her eyes are green in color. When she was a third year junior student, she wore a uniform consisting of a red vest, black jacket and a white collared shirt with a black tie. As a Yuigaoka student, she wears a uniform consisting of a dark blue blazer, a black shirt and skirt and a white collared shirt with a red ribbon.

Personality
Wien is a cold-blooded, passionate and stoic girl, and doesn't seem to express much emotion, but can act recklessly or overdramatically when fussy. She's strongly confident in her abilities and talents, always delivering powerful performances, and never wanting to be compared to other idols, especially Kanon. She takes her aspirations very seriously, and isn't afraid to affront others she deems lower than her level.

She can also have a cute side, though.

Her favorite saying is, "Stick to your guns."

Hobbies
Wien is shown to be skilled at both ballet and singing, incorporating ballet into her choreography.

Trivia

 * Wien is...
 * Initially implied to be from Austria, as Wien means Vienna in Japanese and German, the capital of Austria.
 * In "Dream", however; Wien tweets her posts in English.
 * Her profile in the official site reveals that she is indeed from Austria; her mastery of Japanese and English can be explained because her profile also says that one of her best subjects is foreign languages.
 * The first idol to join an idol group while initially not being a main character.
 * One of the nine girls to join a group after they debuted (like Shioriko Mifune, Mia Taylor, and Lanzhu Zhong), following Kinako Sakurakoji, Mei Yoneme, Shiki Wakana, Natsumi Onitsuka, and followed by Tomari Onitsuka.
 * In the MV of Butterfly Wing, she is shown to be a ballet dancer.
 * Like Lanzhu Zhong in Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS, Wien antagonizes the protagonist (in that case, Kanon) in some occasions.
 * Unlike the former, Wien actually suffers from the consequences caused by her antagonistic behaviour (as she lost to Liella! in Season 2 Episode 11), while Lanzhu just simply apologized while disregarding her actions in the second season of the game's story.
