Background

Max Vasser was a member of Banshee Squadron since its founding just before the Dominion War more than ten years ago, though during the lull after that war she took a brief hiatus to fight on the Federation borders as a mercenary. In 2382, the Banshees were re-formed, and Max fought in the Kelvan Incursion, the First Mulluran War and the Second Mulluran War, almost single-handedly destroying an entire enemy supply convoy during that conflict.

In 2374, her best friend and wing commander, Jazz Phoenix, was encircled and presumed killed by Jem'Hadar attack craft while on a mission in the Cardassian Badlands. Max blamed herself for not being able to save Jazz. In 2385, Jazz was found alive on a Cardassian prison planet and rescued by the Banshees, but shortly thereafter was killed in the dilithium mines of Rostella IV while defending the lives of her teammates. Max blamed herself for Jazz's second death as well.

She became entangled in one of Absalom West's adventures when he ran into her while searching for her dead father while she was visiting the grave. Her father turned out not to be dead after all but merely hiding from the evil Section 31, but he was killed while defending his daughter and West from Section 31. Max blamed herself.

Her encounter with Section 31 left a sour taste in her mouth. She began questioning her loyalty to Starfleet and the Federation for letting an organization like Section 31 exist within its operating mandate. She quit the Banshees and resigned her Starfleet commission and teamed up with West on his quest to poke a thumb into the eye of evil and make a little side cash.

Special Abilities

Max has an extremely high esper rating. She can sense danger, and has the uncanny ability to know exactly what her opponent is about to do, as if she can, in a limited way, foresee the future.
