Max Anders is the leader of the Empire Eighty-Eight and the CEO of the Medhall Corporation.
Background:
A second generation parahuman that inherited his position from his father.
Personality:
Like his son and possibly his own father Max Anders does not believe in Empire Eighty-Eight's ideology. Instead as head of the organization he uses it as a powerful tool to manipulate others. <ref>Comment by Wildbow on RPG.net</ref>.
This fits with his personality. Possessed with much self control every movement and action Max Anders makes is calculated and controlled rarely letting anything slip past his defenses. He is not as brave as he thinks himself however, especially when in a situation that he does not dominate.
Appearance:
Max is a handsome man, thirty-five or so and physically fit. As Kaiser, his costume consists of a suit of armor with a crown of blades that he creates around himself.
Abilities and Powers:
Max's power allows him to summon metal objects – blades, beams, bludgeons, spears and needles – from solid surfaces.
History:
He met with Kayden Anders and convinced her to rejoin the Empire on the condition that she would become his second in command. He also promised her that he would give her the Empire in a year if she still wasn't satisfied with his methods. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Interlude 3½ (Bonus) </ref>.
Max later met with the Undersiders, Faultline’s Crew, Coil, and the Merchants to talk about how they would deal with the Azn Bad Boys. He denied Skidmark a seat at the table, calling him and his gang deranged losers he wouldn't listen to. He then agreed to the truce that Coil proposed. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Hive 5.1</ref>
When Bitch threatened to visit Hookwolf's dogfighting ring, he asked the Undersiders if it was a declaration of war. He agreed to put the issue aside to uphold the truce though warned them that the Empire would need restitution. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Hive 5.2 </ref>
Max, Fenja, and Menja later met Skitter, Bitch Newter, Sundancer and Labyrinth at the lighthouse. He informed them that the attack would begin in five minutes before telling them to move out, taking a few steps back when Bitch enhanced Brutus. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Hive 5.5 </ref>
Together with Fenja and Menja, Max then went to circle around the ABB warehouse. He created a line of blades to prevent the ABB from escaping before drawing the attention of the guards. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Hive 5.6 </ref> He followed Lung and created a narrow beam which Lung avoided. <ref>"Worm Web Serial, Hive 5.8 </ref>
Max told Skitter that he had the situation in hand, but asked her what she would do after she told him about Lung's power. He formed a barrier between Lung and Skitter before creating a block of steel to shove Lung into the ground when he tried to jump. He then created a pyramid of criss-crossing blades around Lung to trap him before directing the blade he had been forming at him.
When Lung escaped, he used a metal spear to throw Lung towards Bitch's dogs before using his power on Lung's men. He then used a shaft to push Lung towards Sundancer's orb and then created a spear to impale Lung. He fell unconscious after he was smashed against the wall by Lung. <ref>"Worm" Web Serial, Hive 5.9 </ref>
