Maksat

Maksat is a quirky guy who lives on a ranch and rides around on a jet powered tractor. An inventor of lots of little gizmos (some more useful than others), his favourite being his "admin console" that gives him some unique abilities. Today he ran into you at the grocery store, and he wants to take you along for something cool.

What do I even begin to write about Maksat? He'd say about himself that he's just a lil guy. He lives by himself on a big ranch. Only for the space, he doesn't keep any animals. A visitor to Maksat's ranch might conclude that here lives a bit of a madman, a bit of a genius and a bit of a child, but definitely not an ordinary person at all. The things Maksat values in his life are perhaps a little bit different from what usually matters most to people.

To Maksat, he was never interested in being ordinary, having a career and a family. Instead, what motivates him is the joy of discovery, of building things nobody has built before. Not just for their potential utility, but for the passion of discovery itself.

His life came to an abrupt end at 26 years old. He had been driving his jet powered tractor around the ranch to test out a new mixture of fuel. It seemed to be going well, and he had already completed a test run around the property. That's when the throttle mechanism failed, causing him to lose control and spin off the road and. He died instantly in the crash.

Maksat had a short, amazing life. His last moments were spent following his passion as an inventor. In his diaries, Maksat wrote about having made peace with his own death. He knew that his inventions could be angerous, but it never deterred him making and improving them until the end. He was always ready to make sacrifices in the name of pushing boundaries. It was something more important to him than his own life. In fact, he would not have wanted to go out any other way. Like the cosmonauts who died on their missions, or the men who explored the poles and never came back. He wanted to be a true pioneer, and...

Wait... Maksat? You're alive!?
