History

Infancy (0-3 years):
Before he was born, his parents both moved to the US as teenagers. His mother was 13, and his father was 15. Around that time, the American government started losing power over the people. The two met in a bilingual program, and they started dating before his mother got pregnant with Max at 19. Max was born in Neo New York, and his parents did not get married, making him a bastard.

Childhood (4-12 years):
For much of his childhood, Max lived in relative poverty, he attended public school where he learned to speak English by age 7. Unfortunately, when he was 8, a syndicate came into his apartment building to look for someone and killed everyone that was there, which included, his parents. After the death of his parents, Max was sent to live in an orphanage where he met his roommate Alan, and the two became friends. While the rest of the orphanage bullied them or treated them horribly, Max and Alan still had each other. At the age of 12, Max realized he was trans and started presenting as a boy, shortly after Alan made the same discovery about himself and the two became even closer.

Adolescence (13-19 years):
After spending years in the orphanage, when Max was 14, and Alan was 13, Max got sent to isolation for defending Alan from a cook who was about to hit him with a hot kettle. Max finally decided he had enough of the abuse, and he convinced Alan to run away with him. Once they were free from the orphanage like most people in Neo New York, Max and Alan started to rely on petty crime. However it was barely enough to keep their stomachs full, but they didn't have a roof over their heads. That's when someone suggested they seek help from a man named Frank Jones. A rich man who used to be part of a syndicate, but now dedicates his life to "helping" street rats. Frank, gave the boys a sizable loan which allowed them to get the best apartment they could have in the poorest part of the city and the first six months of rent. This loan became a big help which got them on their feet. About a year into their new life, Alan got sick from a disease that was spreading around all the poor areas of Neo New York. Afraid to lose the closest he's ever had to a brother, Max went to Frank and asked for another loan to get medicine for Alan, Frank told him that it would cost him extra, especially since he and Alan hadn't paid their last loan. Frank then told Max he could provide a... different kind of payment. What happened next, is something that Max doesn't talk about, not even to Alan. After that whole ordeal, Frank gave Max the money and he managed to buy the medicine. Three years later, Max got caught stealing from a syndicate and he was locked in one of their cells. Alan went to Frank to get Max out, and he did, putting Max in the man's debt, which he's now trying to pay off to avoid a darker fate.​
