Yes, Maxwell is wearing a wig. Yes, it's dark blue.

I chose the lore-friendly eyes because it's much more expressive and look better in my opinion.

(Feel free to correct anything I got wrong, I'm still new to the Fallout series. Just don't be an ass about it. Thanks)

[u]Name:[/u] Maxwell

[u]Age:[/u] Not specified

[u]Gender:[/u] Male

[u]Species:[/u] Ghoul (formerly human)

[b][u]Bio:[/u][/b]     Maxwell is fairly young for a ghoul and is still under the process of mutating completely. (About 80% or more.) He is very reticent about revealing his past and emotions, mostly because the Commonwealth is not a very welcoming place, neither is most of the post-war world. All Max likes to say about his past is “I hadn’t any folks to care for me, spent most of my time around the Glowing Sea. Just me, myself, and I. ‘Specially cause most folks don’t take much of a liking to us ghouls.”

    Despite most people not liking ghouls, Maxwell still has the heart to help others. He feels he should be there for others since nobody was ever there for him. If society was going to be rebuilt, they would need to work together. Cooperation in the post-war environment is…difficult. Nonetheless, Maxwell still tries. He is neutral and only fights back if attacked, most of the times he’ll try to talk his way out of a situation. Raiders tend to be Maxwell’s least favorite to deal with due to raiders being unnecessarily violent and unreasonable in his opinion. Although Max doesn’t love killing others he certainly can defend himself, ultimately he’s just trying to survive.

    Max is willing to work for business or vendors for caps, he’ll take up most offers since finding work isn’t very easy for him. He’ll even do quests if hired. Maxwell tends to wander around the Commonwealth and surrounding areas because he likes to explore areas and meet others, occasionally picking up work. Max was never a settler, settling down in an area isn’t what he’s looking for in life at the moment. He has a few base camps/checkpoints that he constantly visits for supplies or storage. He tends to keep these areas cleverly hidden to avoid Raiders and things of that sort. Once Maxwell attempted to settle down in Goodneighbor but after about a month he was fed up and went back to traveling. Max’s made a few good allies and acquaintances over the years but he usually travels alone despite this.

    Maxwell greatly fears the day the radiation will rot his brain to the point where he’ll go “feral”. Although he has many many years until then- If it even happens, he fears that more than death. In fact, he’d rather be dead than feral. He doesn’t want to end up murdering an innocent person.

[i]“Look, when the time comes for me to go savage- just kill me. Shoot me right in the head ‘cause I don’t wanna hurt nobody.”[/i]

[u][b]Defining traits:[/b][/u]
Western Accent & Voice - For some reason, Maxwell speaks with a noticeable western accent along with matching vocabulary. Like any other ghoul, Max’s voice is raspy and hoarse.

Protection - Maxwell will usually assist others in need, but he will draw a line. The only time he will risk absolutely everything on the spot is for a child or a family. 

Charisma - For a ghoul, Max has pretty good Charisma. He can worm answers out of people and is very clever in conversation. 

Easy-going facade - Maxwell is rather easygoing and always down for a good laugh and a drink. Even with this facade, he is still very meticulous when observing others, he takes mental notes of his surroundings and people.


[u][b]Habits:[/b][/u]

Secrecy - Maxwell doesn’t like sharing his past very much, or his emotional state. He doesn’t want to share his weaknesses with others.

Skeptic - Like any person in the post-war world, he’s not very quick to trust others. He likes to have a couple of conversations and encounters with a person to see their motives before he trusts him. He tends to question many things despite liking to help others. 

Soft spot - Maxwell mellows out very quickly around children and domestic animals (mostly dogs). He doesn’t feel the need to hide as much around them. He doesn't take them much as a threat either unless he’s dealing with an attack dog.

Occasionally on a good day, it’s not surprising to spot Max wandering the wasteland while smoking a cigarette.
