Biography
When he was a teen, Max loved motorcycling, and intended on becoming a motorcycle racer. He was good friends with Lucy Lee, who he met while working in her family's garden. He often drove her to a secret place on a hill overlooking Middletown where they would talk. One day, Max fails to show up while meeting up with Lucy, and is soon declared missing. Two weeks later, police find his moped destroyed off of a road and declared that he died in an accident. He had a closed casket funeral because his body was too mangled. However, Lucy discovers a note Max left her before he disappeared, saying that he'll be late to their meeting.

In actuality, Max did not die, but transferred to the hospital in a coma. He was put in the care of Dr. Albert Cliff and a nurse, Martha Moore. He stayed in this state for ten years. Eventually Max's consciousness returned, and he was aware of his surroundings, and could hear things around him, but did not have any memories of his past. Hearing Martha's voice brought his back from the insanity of being bed-ridden for so long. However, on the tenth anniversary of his admittance, Max's conscious is transported into Martha's body briefly. He is able to see, hear, and feel everything, and control Martha's body as if it were his own. He is returned to his own body, but is able to repeat the procedure. However, each time he does this, his instrumental readings register him as dead, causing Dr. Cliff to order new instruments. Max transports his consciousness again, this time ending up in a child named Phil. He discovers that each time his host is called by their name, he loses control of the body.
