    "It's going to be you that breaks the world."

    To say Max has been through a lot would be an understatement. At the age of 15, she's faced more hardships, loss, and difficult decisions than any teenager should have to make or experience. Through these life altering changes, she's grown and changed as a person ADD MORE.

    When she first moved to Hawkins, Indiana.


    empathetic and compassionate
    assertive, opinionated - loudly so, especially as she gets more comfortable around the group - this softened by the end of season 4 "I'm Just Going To Stop Assuming That I Know Anything."


    daring
    argumentative and brash
    Sarcastic

    "It's going to be you that breaks the world."

    pragmatic
    “I’m fine, ok? I mean, as fine as someone who’s hurtling toward a gruesome death can be.”
    She doesn’t respond well to optimism, especially around her own fate
    If she pretends to be okay with it, eventually it’ll manifest as reality.


    Guilt
    “I play that moment back in my head all the time. Sometimes I imagine myself running to you, pulling you away…
