*...Maybe it's time I took a break... I'm so tired...* -Maxine Hawthorne

Maxine Hawthorne is one of the members of The Council in The Afterlife, being the Anxiety Boss. She's known for being a strong woman both physically and character-wise. She's typically characterized as hard-working at her passions but prone to burnout and sweet to anyone nice to her, but quick to turn antagonistic against those who don't show respect, sometimes even being as bad as Beatrice. Though, she is most known and joked about for her sex craving attitude and has become a bit of a meme throughout the community.

## Story

### Before Death

Max was born in the Caribbean in the mid 1860s as Maxine Hopewell. When she was little, Max’s mother took her to America. When they came over, Max’s mother would support them both and Max’s avid art hobby.

Years later after her mother died, Max would sell her art on the streets to make a living when Rex would steal her paint, leading her to Lucas’ budding laboratory. The two would share a romantic relationship before Max fell into Reginald Hawthorne’s arms, going on to have a relationship with and marry him.

After becoming Maxine Hawthorne, one of her sisters-in-law, Beatrice Hawthorne would spend most of her days tormenting Max and trying to find some way to make her and Reginald split up. Because of Reginald’s job keeping him away and Beatrice’s daily torment, Max would start going back to Lucas’ lab to work there, get to know all the new faces, and eventually end up cheating on Reginald with Lucas.

One stormy day on her way home, Max would find Aven, a trans girl, in an alleyway and took her home, convincing Reginald to take her under their wing and taking care of her like their own daughter. One day, Beatrice would find out about Max’s affair with Lucas, and after Lucas got found out for his crimes and executed, Beatrice would tell Reginald, who accidentally killed Max.

### Afterlife

Max would wake up in The Afterlife and find out that she’s the Anxiety boss and has the power to materialize tattoos on her body based on people’s anxieties around her. She would then resume her relationship with Lucas. She would also take care of Aven when she died and ended up in The Afterlife too. Down the line, she’d play a part in fighting Rian’s attempted overthrowing of The Council.

Later on, Max’s passion for art would evolve into a love for tattoos and open her shop by the name of "Anxiety Free Tattoos" and hire people like Sidney and Cye, both Carvations. She would also start to take up weightlifting as an avid hobby, holding onto that as a way to deal with the stress of her jobs. She'd also style her hair more like a guy's and overall start to feel more confident in herself and less anxious all the time.
