"Hello friends, Maximus here. As some of you may know, I was chosen for a Christmas adventure. I had the privilege of trying out some of the most advanced magitek that I've personally ever heard of. Come on, follow me and I'll tell you a little bit about it when we have some privacy." Maximus leads you outside and to the gardens. He walks over to the bench just outside of the front gates of the academy and sits, offering you the spot next to him. "This magitek was extraordinary. It let me see my future, well sort of. I know what my power set is going to be now, and I must say I am pretty excited. If I can stay on task, then my evolution path should be drawn out for me. Anyway, where was I? The armor, that's right. I really needed this advanced suit of Santa Power Armor because it is crazy out there. I just wanted to deliver some toys, but there seemed to be opposition around every corner. Just between us, I may have nightmares for weeks to come. I wouldn't wish that job on my worst enemy. There are some things that are still too dark for me to talk about, so you'll just have to go read the logs yourself. I did have a wonderful Imp by the name Elf helping me. So it wasn't all bad. Then there was Pym, and well that imp is another thing I don't want to talk about."
