Ridiculously Simplified Synopsis
Important People
- Maximum Ride (Max): A fourteen year old winged bird kid, Max is highly protective of her flock and will sometimes come across as bossy in her attempt to make sure everyone is safe. She is highly mistrustful of anyone she doesn't know, a trait she has passed on to the flock, and thinks of herself as having a bad attitude. Oh yeah she sucks at cooking.
- Fang (Last name unknown): Another fourteen year old, Fang is often described as "Mr. Rock" or "strong and silent" due to his habits of suddenly popping out of the shadows and never showing emotion, more because of the second trait than the first.
- Iggy: The only other flock member aged fourteen, Iggy is blind, due to experiments on his eyes at the School. He often makes sarcastic jokes about this, not showing how much it really affects him, and has adapted so well to being without eyesight that Max states that it is often easy to forget he is blind. He has a great love for bombs and explosions and has this in common with the Gasman, making for a very close friendship despite the age difference. He is the best cook, he always cooks for the flock.
