personality
SWINDLER:: In a nut shell, Max is savvy. A New York native, he knows the city like the back of his hand, and what's better is he knows exactly who to scam. Whether it be pick pocketing, card scams, retail of illegally acquired items, etc, Max is a master. He isn't a bad guy, really, he just isn't a good one.
PROMISCUOUS:: He's also a bit of a whore. Not so much literally anymore, but he certainly does sleep around. At one time he boasted having seven girlfriends, one for everyday of the week, but in truth these were just frequent liaisons that he would have. And don't think him completely for the ladies. No, Max certainly sees some greatly attractive qualities in a man.
ADDICT:: Marijuana, Alcohol, Sex, Danger, Gambling. Not to nicotine, oddly, but this was mostly because he hates the odor.
BUSY BUSY BUSY:: This is one nimble mofo. He enjoys hip hop dancing, skateboarding, banging his drum sticks on just about anything, various feats of acrobats naysayers might call 'Dangerous'. He's fast, graceful, and spry as shit.
INTELLIGENT:: Surprisingly, he's got a bit of a brain on him, if he is so inclined to use it. On rainy days, he often goes to the library and read to keep out of it, having no technical residence. His main schtick is name meanings and orgins, various movies, jewelry, and drugs. Not just what the drugs are about, but why they were outlawed, who outlawed them. Etc.
AVERSIVE OF THE LAW:: He doesn't like cops. They never seem to like him much either.
past Max has no memory of his Mother, or of his Father. From his earliest days he had been in the New York foster care system, moving from house to house, family to family. He was a smart kid, but very mischievous and a bit of a troublemaker. It was here that he met Leopold, who, despite his dorky name, was actually quite savvy. He taught Max all of the essentials in making it in the city, acting as Leo's scout and sidekick.
But soon Leo turned eighteen, and vanished from Max's life. It was a little crushing to the twelve year old Max, though he had expected it. It showed him how little he could rely on people, and soon Leo was replaced by Prometheus the Ferret, who Max trained to grab various things discreetly from people. At first his foster siblings, then the foster parents, and then, eventually, people in the crowds of New York.
As Max got older, he neglected school, deciding he was too poor to even think about college. Instead he took to the streets, earning money doing various scams. A couple times he did whore himself out, particularly when he wanted something a little pricey. There was always a client looking for a strapping young lad to assist with some 'chores' when the wife was away, after all. Other times, he would make money legitimately. He is quite the little illusionist, able to make quarters disappear behind ears and what not.
present Ever the little scamp, Max is still doing what he was doing, only now it's without the distaste of a truant officer chasing him. He is technically homeless, couch surfing when he is able, finding life to be ever the adventure. His means of income are unsavory, and it would be best to check your pockets after talking to him.
family Parents: Unknown. Siblings: Unknown.
Has a Ferret named Prometheus.
likes Cards, Music, Movement, Excitement, Money, Gold, Women, Men, Animals, Booze, Risks, The city, Not knowing where he's going to be tomorrow, Adventure, fun, the ideals of communism.
dislikes Police, Prudes, Churches, Priests, Really any organized religion, Fake Jewelry, Cheap perfume, Girls with too much make up.
