End of Year Student Evaluation Form Student Name: Maximilian Professor Name: Tulania Level: 1 Age: 10
Maximilian Displays an innate facility with magic and a peculiar type of luck that can only be described as "dumb". He is also well-liked by his peers because of his easy-going demeanor. With the right teacher, Maximilian could be a talented War Mage. However, I'm not sure that "right teacher" is me. He needs someone with more
I feel that Maximilian's main challenge is
Oh dear, there don't seem to be any in his file! I'm sure they've just been misplaced!
If I attached all of these certificates, this form would be 302 pages long! I'll just attach the "highlights."
STUDENT NAME: Maximilian DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS: Disrupting class by yelling "I don't HAVE the magic, I AM the magic" is inappropriate. NUMBER OF DEMERITS: 1 ACTION TAKEN: Student must spend one hour in quiet reflection in the library. SIGNED: Tulania
STUDENT NAME: Maximilian DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS: Proper attire MUST be worn at all times during class. This includes shirts. NUMBER OF DEMERITS: 1 ACTION TAKEN: Student must peel potatoes tonight in preparation for supper. SIGNED: Rodergo
STUDENT NAME: Maximilian DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS: Pants and shoes must ALSO be worn at all times during class. Maximilian pointed out that "proper attire" is not defined in the Order's Student Handbook. I told him that he was still disrupting class with his behavior. NUMBER OF DEMERITS: 2 ACTION TAKEN: Student must clean up the men's dorm bathrooms to my satisfaction (taking atleast two hours). I have also prepared an addendum for the Student Handbook to avoid similar situations. The addendum will be circulated to all students. SIGNED: Rodergo
STUDENT NAME: Maximilian DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS: Footie pajamas do NOT count as a shirt AND pants, and they CERTAINLY do not count as pants AND shoes. I care NOT that they are printed with characters from his favorite puppet show. The boy is VERY trying. NUMBER OF DEREMITS: 3 ACTION TAKEN: student must muck out the school stables (this should take around three hours). I have made the Student Handbook Addendum clearer. SIGNED: Rodergo
STUDENT NAME: Maximilian DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS: Maximilian loosed the chickens from their pens outside the communal kitchen, yelling "Let my feathered people go!" His actions prevented us from having the elaborate feast we had planned for the elf delegation from the First Grove. NUMBER OF DEMERITS: 1 ACTION TAKEN: Maximilian must wash dishes after the feast. Thankfully, the meatless meal the chefs hastily prepared was seen as an act of great respect by the elves given that they are vegetarian. He is a lucky, lucky boy. SIGNED: Finnregan
He definitely should be passed on to I hereby formally recommend Maximilian for promotion to level II on the provision that he is moved to another instructor. Signed, Prof. Tulania}} |

In the Bios there is a story line, but a couple don't reference this story line. This is one of the cases. Lore summary from Bio: This is Maximilians permanent record at the Academy. Written by his professors. Mostly situations where Maximilian was rude and earned demerit. It talks about Elves from the first grove coming to visit. (This is where Ivy comes from) It has the great reference back to the comic and OMD 1. When Prof. Tulania recommends Max to Cygnus. Based before OMD 1.
