Max is the character you play as, and leader of the Shining Force. You can name him what you like, as Max is just his default name. He only ever has one magic spell, egress and the only weapons he can use are swords.
Many people seem to be scared of fighting with him, in case he dies (when he dies, the Force retreats from battle and your total gold is halved). There’s no need to be so concerned though, Max is strong enough to defend himself, as long as you use him! Leave him behind in a battle and you’ll never see his true strength.
