Max Mayfield

== Summary ==
Maxine "Max" Mayfield is a girl originally from California, her parents' divorce and mother's remarriage caused Max, alongside her vindictive stepbrother, Billy Hargrove, to relocate to Hawkins in October of 1984. On Halloween, she's invited to trick-or-treat by Dustin Henderson and Lucas Sinclair, the boys attempt to integrate Max into their group, much to their leader Mike Wheeler's disapproval. When Will Byers begins having strange episodes, Max is slowly told through bits and pieces of the events that happened in Hawkins prior to her arrival. As Max helps her friends discover a malevolent entity infecting the town through an underground tunnel system, she soon grows romantically attracted to Lucas, while also proving her worth to the Party by standing up to Billy and stealing his car to give them a ride. After defeating the Mind Flayer, Max officially becomes Lucas' girlfriend.
Six months later in the summer of 1985, Max takes Eleven under her wing and shuns the guys. When they try to find out what the boys are up to without them, they instead stumble upon Max's stepbrother, Billy, in a compromising position and the girls eventually discovered that, as a result of Eleven closing the Gate, the Mind Flayer now resides in Hawkins, possessing Billy and forcing him to kidnap people to create a controlled army. While battling the monster with fireworks, Billy sacrifices himself for Eleven at the cost of his life, much to Max's horror.
In March of 1986, following what happened to her stepbrother, Billy, Max has been reluctantly meeting with the school counselor. Her ex, Lucas, is concerned she's not telling him something, but she's turned a cold shoulder to him, as she has to everyone around her. Max is having trouble sleeping, due to her nightmares of the previous summer and has also gained terrible headaches. After realizing that she's been having the same symptoms as Chrissy and Fred, it is revealed that she has been cursed by Vecna and that was causing these difficulties. She ends up almost dead in Vecna's mindspace, but manages to escape with the help of Dustin, Lucas and Steve.
