## Trivia

* Max bears a striking resemblance to the real life actor Jensen Ackles.

* Max is probably right handed due to him wearing his watch on his left wrist.
* He can can be considered as the 4th or 5th "love interest" in Blue Swan due his interest in the player and because of the connection they make.
* He is the third character to have a military background after Jarod Harding and Jake Stewart however he uses this illegally to get vengeance towards Jarod.
* In Jarod's route, Max's real surname is revealed when Jarod tells the player about him when he uses different aliases to meet someone new like he did on his debut in Blue Swan.
