Maxillium Ladrian
also known as Maxillium, Tindwyl Maxillium
Five-year-old son of Waxillium and Steris Ladrian. Knows his letters but prefers to invent his own, presents his father with carefully-scribbled "dog pictures" and "cat pictures" before important meetings, and is already picking up accents from his Uncle Wayne. MB2:TLM:Ch 2
Known facts
- flying-harness-gameOld enough now to be strapped into his Steris-designed flying harness and bounced around the city skyline with his father, Max has invented a fetch game played from the top of Ahlstrom Tower — a wicker ball weighted with a sliver of metal that Wax Pushes onto neighbouring rooftops to be retrieved.MB2:TLM:Ch 7
Events
- MB2:TLM:Ch 2 Solemnly contributes a dog picture and a (squirrel-looking) cat picture to his father's "evidence" stack before the Senate vote.
- MB2:TLM:Ch 5 Asks his father in an exaggerated Wayne-borrowed accent whether he is sad, and persuades him into a flight home across the Elendel skyline strapped to his back in the leather harness.
- MB2:TLM:Ch 7 Strapped to Wax's back in his harness; spends the afternoon urging higher leaps, dropping twirly-seeds off Ahlstrom Tower, and inventing rooftop fetch with a wicker ball.
- MB2:TLM:Ch 9 Strapped to Wax for the leap up to the airship; salutes Admiral Daal without response, derails the standoff by needing the toilet, and emerges proud of having pooped on an airship and acquired some white toilet paper.
- MB2:TLM:Ch 9 Plays with a puzzle in the front room and reports the day's adventure to Steris in detail, complete with airship souvenir.
- MB2:TLM:Ch 19 Wraps small arms around his parents' legs at the kiss-goodbye; tells Wax he can find the monsters because Uncle Wayne said he is the best detector that ever lived.
