*"The reason I put this curse on you, was to make you strong! Obviously that failed."*
King Maxwell to Ares in Episode 7

## King Maxwell

* Spirit
* Alive

## Main Information

King Maxwell is the second king of The Darks. He is the son of Strike and Lillia, the brother to Rose, the former mate of Lydia and is the father of Kaylee and Ares.

## Appearance

King Maxwell has long and frizzy darkish blue fur with dark grey ears, two stripes on the top and bottom of his cheek fur, diamond on chest, two stripes on the front of his shoulders and thighs, three hollow stripes on his back and three stripes on his tail. He has red eyes with a dark red sclera that emit a red mist, also having his hair swooped back and a light blue nose, pawpads, claws and inner ears.

When not under the curse which is very rarely, he has light blue eyes with white scleras.

## Relationships

### King Romulus

Romulus was the one that pushed Maxwell to actively turn against his father, and likely encouraged all of Maxwell's desires. They formed a strong ally-ship and became trusted partners of one another. Maxwell was at first angry at the sight of Romulus' body, but quickly changed his mind, since he would be fully in control of The Darks with Romulus dead.

### Rose

Maxwell and Rose have a strong, burning hatred for one another, and a thriving rivalry. It is unknown what their relationship was like before Maxwell betrayed his family. Maxwell does not see Rose as a sister, but as an enemy. He would put his kingdom at stake if it meant getting back at Rose.

## Personality

Even as a young teen, Maxwell has always been rotten to the core. It is a common misconception that the curse is what made him evil, when in reality he has always been a scheming villain. He always looks for new ways to gain power, doing whatever it takes to obtain it. He is even willing to put his family in harms way to maintain power, as seen with his father Strike, his mate Lydia, and his two children Ares and Kaylee.

Before the curse he was mostly cold and meticulous, but after the curse, he became explosive, aggressive, and an overall nightmare to be around. He felt no remorse for anyone or anything. The only cat he ever cared for was Romulus.

## Episode Appearances

### Episode 1

Maxwell is mention by Iris while she telling a story that Maxwell and Rose were born into a poor family and then the elders went to go see the kits before they were killed and one of them had a vision that one cat would be The Lights saviour and one will be threat to everyone. As Maxwell grew he showed more signs of this destiny. He eventually met up with Romulus to train but he was soon assassinated by a Light. They had a war and The Darks won, Maxwell electing himself king. Rose planned to dethrone him which split the cat kingdoms into two.

### Episode 6

Maxwell is in his castle when his two kits Ares and Kaylee come in. They start to play Lights And Darks, Ares attacking Maxwell's tail wanting to play but he gets annoyed and throws him into the wall which creates a massive wound on his forehead. Ares wines and asked why he did that but Maxwell tells him to stop crying. He eventually asks Kaylee to come with him but carries her to another room to his Council. Ares follows him unnoticed and spies on them, Maxwell told them that Kaylee didn't want to be a dark but she said it was because they were playing a game. The Council tells him that she'll be useless to the kingdom and convince him to kill her so he does. Once he's done Maxwell spots Ares hiding and he chases him, pins him to the ground and ripping a piece of his ear off, giving him the curse.
