Ultima V: Lazarus
In Ultima V: Lazarus, Maxwell told the hero that he was not yet a Knight of the Order of the Silver Serpent, but he hoped to someday prove himself worthy of such an honour. He swore that the Knights were the paradigm of Courage, and he would protect Serpent's Hold and his sister Kristi, readying himself for the day that Blackthorn's men would attack.

Maxwell despised Blackthorn's regime, saying the tyrant corrupted and twisted virtue, and had been the death of many of his friends, and even his brother Angus, who perished trying to break Blackthorn's blockade of Serpent's Hold. He was furious how Lord Malone had suffered under the Oppression, and was determined to uphold Courage to its utmost. When asked about his trainings, the young warrior told mentioned that Monsieur Loubet was the greatest trainer he had ever met, and had taught him much about swordplay. Despite this, Maxwell still felt most comfortable wielding an axe.
