Name: Maximilian Fischer
Color: Blue 
Age: 19
Personality: Bitter, occasionally sarcastic, but generally means well. Pragmatic and not terribly sympathetic, but willing to give his life for a good cause. He ocassionaly switches into his native Afrikaan language. 

Description: Max is of Afrikaaner decent, with sandy blonde hair and green eyes. He doesn't like to shave, so he sports some 5 o-clock shadow He has a small burn scar just above his left eye, which he doesn't really talk about. He wears a simple t-shirt and cargo pants, and wears a hooded leather jacket for when the weather turns.

Background history: He was born in South Africa, but orphaned at a young age and trained to be a child soldier. At age 14 he escaped his "father" and fled to the west. For 5 years, he has tried to live a normal life as a young college student living in Angel Grove. He still sees his therapist once a week, but so far he hasn't had an incident of violence.

He is generally sociable, but ocasionally has a dark sense of humor. He does, however, feel extreme guilt about his actions as a boy, and he often questions zordon's choice to make him a ranger. He has told very few people about his past as a battlefield butcher, but if he met someone (or some people) who would actually care or not judge him harshly, he would talk.

What he brings to the team is experience. Having been raised on combat, he is comfortable with the madness and violence that it brings. Unlike most power rangers, he has no official martial arts training, but instead brawls his enemies and isn't afraid of using techniques that might be considered underhanded or unfair.
