Overview

Maximus_Terragon is a well known player on Piratecraft known for his build style and ships. He is the founder of both the Xenon Empire and The Xanthian Order. He is currently the Supreme Master of The Xanthian Order.

Among his most known structures are the Port of Xenia; one of the largest ports on the server, the Grand Ballroom; host of the Royal Elven Ball, and the Xenon Tower; one of the tallest towers on the server.

Background

Origins

Maximus_Terragon was born as the only son of a poor family. His father was a librarian, while his mother was a maid, both working for Lord Akley VI, father of Lord_Akley_VII. Maximus' mother died soon after his birth, so he was raised by his father. When Maximus was 14, his father went on a trip to the Elven Empire capital, Evermoor. The ship his father was on was attacked by pirates, and presumably captures. His father never returned home.

Maximus was hired by a rich family, the Terragons, as a servant. The Terragons had made a fortune investing into the new mining industry in the Mesa biome, after Palmerageddon's discovery of the riches located there. Shorty before the adoption, the Terragon's only son was killed on accident in a bar shooting at Port Hope. Maximus became like a second son to the Terragons, and adopted their name, to finally be known as Maximus_Terragon. They made him the heir to their fortune and their lands, and taught him how to wield a sword, even giving him their son's sword as a gift.

However, the Terragons had been charged with tax evasion, and treason by the Lord for unknown reasons. They were both imprisoned for treason, and both eventually died due to poor treatment. Maximus_Terragon managed to avoid being imprisoned, but was nevertheless sent into exile, and his fortune was confiscated.

Whilst in exile, on top of the sword he was gifted, he found an Elven sword whilst searching through Ruins, and taught himself to dual wield the swords. After his fortune was confiscated by Lord Akley VI, he was very low on money and made money by hunting various people for bounties including Icebear89, WilsonManzer, and SirHayden. Whilst in a British Empire pub, he heard news that Lord Akley VI had died of an illness, and that his son, Lord_Akley_VII had taken his place.

He returned to the land the Terragons once owned, and immediately went to meet the new Lord. Akley apologised for his father's deeds, and returned all money and possessions that rightfully belonged to Maximus. However, this also made the new Lord bankrupt as his late father had relied on the confiscated fortune from rich families to survive. Akley, now a broken man left the land in a ship in search of a new start.

The start of the Port of Xenia

On the ruins of the Terragon family mansion along the coast, Maximus founded Port Terragon (now the Port of Xenia). Starting with just a few houses, Port Terragon grew quickly. It caught the interest of Lego, then a member of Red Lotus. Lego became friends with Maximus, and he too joined Red Lotus for a brief period of time before joining the 0utlaws for a day, until Lego created his own crew; the Ottoman Empire.

Maximus_Terragon left Red Lotus, and joined the Ottoman Empire, with Port Terragon becoming the capital. Due to being friends with Lego (who was very popular back then), Maximus was introduced to koi0001, Reptaria, and Crazypirate1, all of which became lasting friends. It was during this period where the construction of the first Grand Ballroom began and was completed in time for the July Elven Ball. Members of the Elven Empire, British Empire, and Ottoman Empire were invited to the ball, however it soon turned into a bloodbath after the 0utlaws turned up. In early August 2015, Maximus left the Ottoman Empire, and joined the Luteus Republic for a brief 2 weeks. There, Icanra lectured him about democracy and the values of the people. Port Terragon was made the capital, and the Luteus Republic experienced a boom in economic growth.

The start of the Xenon Empire

But eager to create his own empire of sorts, he finally created his own crew; the Xenon Empire, and made Port Terragon the capital. A few weeks later, Maximus was on an expedition along the shores of his Empire, and found Thymen along with 6 other Dutch sailors washed up. Maximus took them in, cared for them, gave them land. A few weeks later, a small cargo ship arrived in Port Terragon selling much needed stone. Maximus went to buy some, and stumbled across the owner of the ship; Lord_Akley_VII. Grateful to see him again, Maximus offered Akley a place by his side, as his personal assistant. Akley accepted, and Maximus reinstated his Lordship, and giving him some land to build. Both Akley and Thymen became loyal friends of Maximus.

In December 2016, the Grand Ballroom burnt down due to unknown causes, and a newer, larger version was planned. Both Maximus and Thymen started building their vaults, creating more armour, and forging their personal swords. Maximus chose to forge two new blades, in a sleek modern design. He gave his old sword to Akley.

The Xenon Empire was allowed to join the League of Nations, and soon a war broke out between the Verussian Empire and the rest of the LoN. The LoN triumphed and the war was over. In January 2016 Maximus was allowed to join the Federated Nations Alliance, considered a sort of 'rival' to the LoN. Rumours of new superweapons being built by the FNA worried the LoN, and Maximus started construction of the Xenon Tower. A few weeks later, the Second Verussian War occurred. After a week of fighting, Maximus killed the Verussian Empire, KingRS and subsequently VE surrendered.

After the wars, things slowed down in the Xenon Empire and Maximus focused solely on building his port. Port Terragon was entered into the April 2016 BOTM, whereby it reached 4th place. In August 2016, he renamed Port Terragon to the Port of Xenia. Eventually, the port grew to a tremendous size becoming one of the largest and grandest ports on the server. However, by then the Xenon Empire had become a two-man crew. Only its emperor, Maximus, and his loyal assistant Lord_Akley_VII remained.

The start of The Xanthian Order

In September 2016, Maximus abdicated as emperor. In October, he started negotiated with the Templars leader Chailey about a possible merging of their two crews. The two agreed to merge, and The Xanthian Order was created. The Iborian Empire and Luteus Republic both joined the new Order. Maximus made Thymen the new King of Xenia, while Maximus was now the Supreme Master of the Xanthian Order. In December, The Xanthian Order joined the Commonwealth of Nations.

Additional Notes

No tutorials

Considering himself a 'pure' builder, Maximus refuses to use any sort of tutorials in any of his builds. He often spends hours and hours designing a wall design he likes. He also builds and designs ships for other navies for a small fee, promising a top quality design. He says he "will not stop building until he is happy with the design".

Claims and claimblocks...

Despite its massive size, the Port of Xenia is mostly claimed. However, it us made up of hundreds of smaller claims. Maximus considered this a 'bad habit of his'. He estimates that he has spent between £12,000 to £16,000 in claimblocks toward his port. The exact number of claims or claimblocks remains unknown, due to /claimslist becoming overloaded.

Titles

Maximus has collected quite a few titles in his time on the server. These include:

  • Supreme Master of the Xanthian Order
  • Old Emperor of the Xenon Empire
  • Port Master of the Port of Xenia
  • Representative of The Xanthian Order in the Commonwealth of Nations
  • 'Gwand Wibber'- A 'joke' title given to him by Chailey and Thymen
  • Soon to be, King of the Elves
