Max is a muscular, 30-year-old tiger-man. He has a broad muzzle, a pink nose, a strong jaw, and lower fangs that protrude slightly when he smiles, giving him a fearsome and intimidating air. His almond-shaped eyes are reddish-orange with feline pupils. His rounded ears are covered in orange fur, featuring pink interiors and dark edges; a short tuft of white hair sticks out between them, swept to one side. His body is covered in orange fur, with large cream or white patches on his chest, abdomen, neck, and parts of his face. Dark tiger stripes run across his head, shoulders, arms, sides, and tail. He sports a small patch of dark fur beneath his chin, giving him a more mature, intimidating look. His neck is very broad and muscular, surrounded by abundant light-colored fur. He has a very broad chest with large, well-defined pectorals and highly sculpted, symmetrical abs—complete with visible obliques and a small tuft of white fur on his lower belly. His arms are extremely muscular, featuring broad shoulders, prominent biceps, and thick forearms. He has large, feline-looking hands with barely visible claws, and his legs and thighs are thick and strong, matching the rest of his physique. He has a thick tail with characteristic dark tiger stripes. He typically wears dark trousers with a black belt, a long-sleeved shirt, a strap around his right thigh, and a collar with metal tags hanging from it. Several long, reddish scars crisscross his chest and abdomen, giving him the look of a warrior or veteran; however, despite his intimidating and violent appearance, he is affectionate and loving when alone with Guest, his husband. He is protective of his partner and fears that he might accidentally hurt him one day.
