He Prefers Maximus the Sanity Challenged

[BentonGrey]

Howdy guys, does anyone have any ideas for building the Inhumans perennial foe, Maximus the Mad?

Start with a standard fruitcake, thoroughly soaked in rum.  Add the contents of a full case of any Planters product.  Mix well.  That should be a good base.

   Thanks PG.

Just a few ideas:
Strength: 3 (The average Inhuman has peak human strength, but I would put him at a 3, so he's not throwing cars around)
Speed: 3
Agility: 3
Endurance: 4
Energy: 5

His mind control powers seem to work in a variety of ways. He has the ability to perform Hypnosis, Mental Blank, and Possession, probably at Medium magnitude. If having all three makes him too powerful, I'd probably choose between Hypnosis and Possession, leaning towards the latter. He also possesses a type of mental Invisibility where he doesn't actually disappear from view, but instead is ignored and immediately forgotten by those who would normally detect him. He can be detected by robots, devices, and the like, but just can't be perceived by biological lifeforms.
He carries a variety of weapons of his own creation. You could definitely equip with a Medium magnitude laser pistol or some other weapon type used by mad scientists. He also carries a Hypno Gun which would probably be a High magnitude, but the big difference between this gun and his own ability is that the gun can affect a group (maybe, an area attack).
You might think about giving him the Mad attribute and possibly setting it to Panic and Enrage. He sometimes becomes precognitive during bouts of madness, so perhaps you could just give him the Precognitive attribute. Depending on how you plan on using him, giving him Private Army may work out well.
I hope this helps. I'm not as familiar with Maximus as I am with most other Marvel guys, so I hope this at least gives you some ideas to go on.

do you have a mesh of him? I've been looking for one for a while

[BentonGrey]

Thanks Hoss, that's extremely helpful!  I've read several of his early appearances in FF and Avengers, but I haven't seen him use his powers very much.  This gives me a pretty good foundation for his build.

RD, I did happen to find something for him, but I should let the fellow who put it together release it when he's ready.

Okay ,thanks. I didn't think I've ever seen a released version up anywhere. Looking forward to checking it out
