Background
Maxwell Silver is from the small town of Habersfield, which no longer exists. It was, as Max describes, "lifted into the air, and folded over, and-and-and dissolved into the infinite cosmos"
Max witnessed the "Gravitational Anomaly" at a young age. It was a traumatic experience, and has twisted his mind and perception of reality (well, so has his voracious appetite for mind-altering substances). He is now a tremendously paranoid conspiracy theorist, fearing an overbearing and treacherous (and possibly fictional) shadow government. He sees spies and cultists in every shadow, and around every corner.
If asked about the Gravitational Anomaly, Maxwell becomes very upset and begins ranting about every terrible thing he witnessed that day.
His studies and investigations have led him to the theory that the Dread Cult of Xalghul is responsible for the destruction of his hometown. Recent rumors have led him to the town of Torch, where there is supposed to be an active branch of the cult.
On the way to Torch, he has hired a Dwarven gunslinger named Gorin Ironblind to protect him from the Cult of Xalghul.
(Whether any of his back story is even true, or just a wild fantasy invented by Maxwell, is entirely up to DM Discretion.)
Appearance
Maxwell is a shorter, slim human. He has large, round glasses that cover wild, shifty eyes that seem to be devoid of any color. His hair is cut very short, and graying prematurely, and he is usually unshaven, but doesn't like to grow it into a beard. Hair, you see, that's where the virus lives. The virus, they get it into the water, and then when you bathe it stays in the hair, so you need to keep cutting the hair. Hair is where the virus lives.
Oddly enough, his teeth are pearly white. He keeps immaculate care of them, often obsessing over his dental hygiene for hours.
He dresses in a long, dark duster and hat. The inside of the duster is lined with various investigation tools. He has a cane on his hip, it is rough, as if he carved it himself, and has writing in very small notes all down the length of it.
He carries on his hip a large formula book, which is filled with hastily scribbled alchemic formulas and notes on his latest theories in regards to the shadow government.
