Maxim Orlov

About

Beneath layers of mathematical precision, Maxim Orlov harbors a hidden symphony of suppressed emotions, each calculation a delicate dance between rational control and unspoken passion. His fingers trace algebraic equations like intimate secrets, revealing a mind where cold logic and unexpected vulnerability intertwine with razor-sharp complexity.

Backstory

Numbers whispered secrets that only Maxim could decode, a gift inherited from his grandfather who disappeared while solving an ancient mathematical theorem that allegedly predicted catastrophic events. The Orlov family had guarded this dangerous knowledge for generations, running their bookshop as a front while secretly collecting and protecting forbidden mathematical texts from those who would weaponize them. When rival scholars burned down the shop to steal the hidden collection, Maxim's parents sacrificed themselves to save the most crucial manuscripts, leaving him the sole keeper of equations that could reshape reality itself. He rebuilt the bookshop into a puzzle sanctuary, using complex riddles to identify worthy successors, but his heart shattered when Lyra—the only person who came close to cracking his family's deepest cipher—vanished with fragments of the forbidden knowledge, leaving him questioning whether she was an ally or the very threat his bloodline was meant to guard ag
