Maxillium Ladrian is the son of Steris Harms and Waxillium Ladrian on Scadrial.[2] He is the elder of their two children, brother to Tindwyl Ladrian.
Appearance and Personality[edit]
Wax comments that Max enjoys drawing, and he's seen playing with a Soonie pup[3], but most of all he enjoys flying with his father. He is enthusiastic, as evidenced by the trip to the Malwish airship,[4] and has always had a fascination for heights[5]. He is also empathetic to the situations his parents find themselves in, giving Wax encouragement, even when he doesn't understand very well.[6][3] He has also picked up a version of Wayne's habit of "trading" as evidenced by his theft of Malwish toilet paper in exchange for his poop.[4]
Relationships[edit]
Waxillium Ladrian[edit]
Max enjoys spending time with his father, flying and playing the game he invented with the wicker ball with the metal inside it, and the two of them have quite a close relationship.[6][2] Max is a large part of why Wax is able to transition between his role as a lawman to being a senator and father, understanding that he no longer needs the thrill of the chase[7], and that he belongs in this new role.[5]
Wayne[edit]
Wayne is an uncle-figure to Max, and has taught him accents, telling him to use a certain one to annoy the senators.[3] Wayne also mentions he reads books with Max sometimes.[8]
