Experiment or recruit?: Experiment Powers & their limits: MAX is a machine built for one thing: To survive the certainly-impending Nuclear Holocaust during the Cold War. To this end, he is constructed entirely of the superalloy Aegium. This then-experimental alloy is incredibly hard to make, its components are incredibly expensive, and most of the supply available during the 20th century went into the construction of this 6-foot-tall robot. Because of his creator's paranoia, MAX is also equipped with a forcefield that prevents incorporeal travel, and the parts of him involved with programming and personality are shielded by alloys that interfere with radiation, RADAR, and (according to the notes of his creator) magic. This renders him, essentially, indestructible- atomic bombs could not harm him during testing. However, invulnerability and enhanced robot strength are the full extent of his abilities, and he can not be modified- to do so would require disassembling him, and it's pretty hard to get through Aegium. Personality: MAX is secure in the knowledge that he is the most advanced machine that 1965 has to offer. Devoid of emotion, he seeks to destroy aliens, alien technology, malfunctioning technology, machines that might be used for war, and the vile criminals known as "Commies." He is still bound to the three laws, but he is really good at finding loopholes. Despite his outdated technology, MAX has a fundamental understanding of most scientific principles as understood at the time of his creation. While his knowledge pool lacks more recent discoveries, he knows essentially every bit of minutia of every scientific and biological principle available as of his last update in November 1965. Backstory: MAX was created during the Cold War by an insane scientist. Not "They stood there and mocked me! THE WHOLE WORLD MOCKED ME!" insane. "Ants live in my skin, government microchips in my cornflakes" insane. Though his assertions on the coming apocalypse seemed to change by the hour ("The shapeshifting reptilian aliens in the houses of power will rise up and bombard the earth with radiation!" "Communist ghosts will possess our machines!" "An army of Wizard Hitler Clones will march against us!"), he was certain the world would be ending very soon. To this end, he created MAX. MAX thought at an unmatched speed of 2.5 Megabytes per second. MAX was named because he was, at the time, the absolute maximum of technology. Granted, that was in 1957. He was built to survive any of the delusional scientist's theoretical apocalypses, then share his expansive knowledge of science with the survivors. Of course, the apocalypse never came, and MAX was left in storage. In 1980, however, he was awakened by a lightning strike. Not recognizing any of the strange technology, he came to the conclusion that all of it was either 1) Communist Trickery or 2) Alien War Machines. This led to... unfortunate repercussions as the indestructible MAX rampaged across the world, destroying advanced technology. Though it was easy enough to capture him, reprogramming him proved to be impossible- the technology needed was either in museums or phased out of production completely. So, MAX was left in a hole. Until the invasion began, and the UN recognized that the dated robot was their best hope of survival. Equipment: Nothing of note.
