Maxx Bautista

⭐ Maxx is generally considered by people he knows and his friends in particular to be fair stoic and stone-faced in response to most things. This can make him the best to rope into a prank since he's unlikely to give the joke away with a coy smirk and also makes him a fairly grounding force during a scary movie since usually he won't even jump regardless of what might have just happened on screen. There is an exception that proves that Maxx isn't utterly implacable and that comes in the form of spiders. The second that Maxx sees a spider, even a fake one if used to scare him, he will let out some manner of scream before he attempts to regain his composure since he isn't all that proud of those moments.

⭐ Maxx often gets brought along when he and his band of friends need to drive somewhere, not because he wants to go, but because they feel better having him on hand due to his innate sense of direction. Maxx never seems to have any issue. Whether it's finding a particular store or section of one, knowing which way they came and helping lead the way out, or usually just being able to guess which way is east or north even when indoors, unless it is a place that he hasn't been to rarely is a GPS needed to be broken out.

⭐ Maxx doesn't have a sense of smell and, as far as he knows, he's never had one. While the rest of his senses are fine and keen? He has no ability to pick up any strange or unusual smells. This has resulted in one or two occasions where he has forgotten something like a bit of laundry under his bed and not known it was there until someone else comments on the scent. He does, however, have a strangely strong sense of taste despite of that and has a rather full palate 

⭐ Maxx is double-jointed and strangely flexible. This is most notable with his feet which he can almost entirely rotate to face the other way without feeling any pain and be able to hold it for decent amounts of time. This does mean he hardly ever feels uncomfortable after long periods of sitting or being otherwise sedentary because all it takes is a bit of stretching and shaking things out before he is a-okay.  

⭐ Maxx can't take care of plants to save his life. He has the opposite of a green-thumb because any plant that finds itself in his possession even if just for a bit is absolutely going to die somehow. Even, one time, a wax cactus which was snapped in half-when a book slipped off a shelf and hit it at a wrong angle. 

⭐ Maxx tends to dislike most fandoms to the point he has stopped watching some shows, playing some games, or just doing some things just because he didn't want to see or deal with the same discourse and drama that comes with things like that once they reached a certain size or popularity. While he might stay in something long enough to enjoy art, fan-songs, and other things. The second he sees people start arguing over something he sees as inane and pointless is often the point where he cuts most ties with the thing.

⭐ Maxx enjoys eating foods that could be considered by some as weird and/or obscure; including things that most people might find disgusting to even try. While it depends just how much he might enjoy a dish since it depends plate to plate? If there is one thing he likes it is grossing his friends out or forcing them to vacate the room the second after he breaks out something like pickled herring just based on the smell itself. Not that he can smell it.

⭐ Maxx, while willing to do a lot of things with people, often reserves putting in any major effort unless its something he can do and enjoys doing on his own. This doesn't mean that he will slack off and not help but if his performance on something could be graded one is far more likely to see things in around 70% rather than an A plus score. However, it is something he likes to do and he can do on his own he goes above and beyond. For example he can power his way through a new game release in the minimum number of hours while also nearly seeing all content it has in that time.
