Max is somewhat bipolar in his behaviour. At times, he is incredibly energetic, impulsive and ecstatic. He'll travel to new places, meet new people, and he'll be invigorating to be around. He'll spend a couple of weeks or months overseas, giving into his various impulses, only to come back home with a hanging head, feeling burned out and alone. These mood swings make him a difficult person to be around in the long-term, and he'll heavily rely on his family to keep him in check when everything else seems to go wrong.

Max is incredibly rich and he will probably let you know. He likes to live large and spend immense amounts of money on the most useless things. He will talk down to people who are less well-off than he is, and it's likely he'll be thrown off if he doesn't get what he wants for once.

Even though his somewhat problematic character, Max is very good at his job, if he ever tends to it. He can be very outgoing, charming even, if he wants to. This makes it easy for him to acquire new business partners and close new deals. However, he doesn't particularly care for his job and will likely use these character traits towards other ends.

» History
Maximilien was born as the second son of Xavier and Josephine Bourbon. Being born into wealth, Max had the privilege of receiving a proper education. However, the fact that he needed to share his parents' attention with many siblings, as well as an ever-growing distillery business proved to be quite difficult for him. Since his brother Enzo was the eldest, and therefore the heir to the family business, Max found himself to be without much purpose.

The absence of responsibility, combined with the seemingly endless fortune of the Bourbon family made him careless and impulsive. He started seeking out thrills outside of the Bourbon mansion, travelling to foreign places and spending money on temporary pleasures. Growing up, Max got into a lot of trouble, but usually managed to talk his way out of it. As he came of age, Xavier decided to keep him in line a little by involving him in the family business. He taught Max about their distillery and their clients, and Max soon proved to be a valuable asset to the company by earning them new business accounts. He continued working for the family business for quite some years.

Max was twenty-nine when his parents were killed in the notorious Bourbon-bloodbath. Even though he claimed to feel indifferent towards their passing, it affected him greatly. His brother took over as head of House Bourbon and Max started feeling a greater disconnect with his family. Formally, he still works for the Bourbon distillery. Lately, however, he's been mostly travelling the world in search of meaningless distractions, relying on his family's money to keep him afloat.
