Lenin Marx Lexwington

"tba"

- lenny max

Lenin Marx Lexwington is a 2017-introduce character and he’s essentially just a really annoying little shit. He works for the Fairytale Authorities, who are completely responsible for the destiny everyone’s questioning so much and therefore sides with the Royals, despite not having a destiny himself. You can call him Lenny (his family does) or Max (he prefers this name), or Lenny Max, or Commie Lexwington but Pastel Asshole, Douchebag, Stupid Fuck and Little Shit are all acceptable names for him too.

Personality
"Lenny? Well, it’s generally agreed upon that he’s the least favourite cousin."

- probably Min

Max is just an asshole and there is not a single more accurate way to describe him.

The first thing one would notice when first seeing him is how unapproachable he looks. Max has a general irritable air about him and upon further investigation he proves to be always annoyed for one reason or another. Max has a fairly cynical view of the people around him and he dislikes conversation, preferring to just silently get on with his job.

To anyone who cares to try an initiate any form of conversation with Lenin Marx Lexwington be warned that he is unnecessarily mean and lacks any form of sympathy or kindness in his words. He says a lot of hurtful stuff with little to no regard for whether it’d hurt somebody and if he does take that into consideration it’s because he ‘’wants’’ to offend someone. He’s blunt, harsh and condescending and honestly couldn’t care less about anything that doesn’t affect him directly.

He knows he’s intelligent and thinks himself above a lot of people because of it. Max is cocky and needs to be taken down a few pegs. Ask anybody, he’s just really irritating and doesn’t have a brain-to-mouth filter and if he does he doesn’t use it. He’s also annoyingly aware that he is a huge jerkwad but Max doesn’t mind. Reactions to things he says are funny.

Max is smart though and knows when to cut his losses most of the time. He can hold fairly good conversation if he wants to but most people irritate and exhaust him to no end. He knows what he’s doing and puts a lot of effort in his work.

Speaking of which, Max has a highly fixed mindset about destiny. Destiny should be followed regardless of personal feelings because destiny holds the world together and without it, there’s a lot of panic and confusion. That and he loses his very well-paying job.

The thing about Max’s being so full of pride is that he’s very willing to defend himself and the things he believes in. This also applies to his job and coworkers and this makes him extremely loyal. This also makes him extremely fighty and easily provoked. He’s got a big ego but it’s easily bruised and in short, he’s an ass-pain.

Appearance
"Lenny’d be a fairly pretty person if he didn’t look like he wanted to kill everyone in his immediate area."

- Min on his appearance

The most notable thing about Max’s appearance are his fairly large wings. He’s got three pairs, the top pair in a somewhat light dusky blue, the second periwinkle and the third purple leaning towards pink. Next up is his hair, which is a striking platinum blonde. It’s a very solid shade without many highlights or lowlights. Max’s straight hair falls somewhat limply to around mid-neck and it’s very soft and shiny and he’s got a side fringe. It occasionally has somewhat of a bounce and may curl at the ends, especially if it’s humid where he is. His hair’s generally kept in a half-up style held by a purple ribbon and he will fight you if that ribbon is commented on teasingly.

Max’s eyes are a pretty grey-blue shade and they go well with his light cream-coloured skin. He’s very pale and covered in freckles, the majority of them on his pointed nose, cheeks and shoulders. He also suffers from resting bitch face and a lack of height, standing at 160 cm/5’2.5 Combined with the fact that he’s quite thin and his eyes are large and round, albeit often narrowed in irritation, Max would look somewhat like a child, but his jaw’s sharper than a knife and his expression alone seems to have aged him quite a bit.

Occupation
Works for the Fairytale Authorities in the D’Aulnoy Division. His job is to make sure, in a way as discreet as possible, that fairytales play out uninterrupted by excited fans of said fairytales.

Fun Facts

 * Sam and Zena came up with his name
 * As Zena pointed out, while he’s named after two communists (Karl Marx + Lenin), Max’s name could also be a Brave New World reference because Bernard Marx and Lenina Crowne. What makes it better is that Brave New World is about people and the roles they’re made to fill out in society and the fact that Max actually enforces those roles
 * His family calls him Lenny ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
 * Also speaks fluent French
 * He also swears a lot
