Max was always an introvert at heart, but had so much to share with the world, but could not through conventional means. He would freeze up or say entirely the wrong things with blunt and unfeeling words - which was not his intention. It is why he chose solace and expression through song and music. It could reveal his inner thoughts and emotions without having to interact with anyone at all. He would take great comfort in traveling west from Zabokar and into the mountains, where he could write out his songs and playtest them for the wilderness and the feral animals around. His talent became legendary in the underground circuits of Zabokar, ultimately ending up with him owning his own jazz club. Despite it failing due to his inability to properly manage the place, he never lost his love for the craft and the music. He passed this love onto his younger sister, Taylor, and was personally happy and honored to have been a part of her rearing in the art of musical expression. He'd never admit it, but he was proud of his little protege.
