Maxine "Max" Caulfield is a main character in the video game Life is Strange and the comic book series based on the game. She also appears in the bonus episode, 'Farewell', in Life is Strange: Before the Storm and is mentioned in Life is Strange 2 and Life is Strange: True Colors.

Canon

Early on in Life is Strange, Max discovers that she can rewind and stop time when she uses the ability to prevent her childhood friend, Chloe Price, from being murdered by another student in the school. Max goes onto use those abilities to try and find out what happened to Chloe's missing friend, Rachel Amber.

Fandom

Common Pairings

Most of Max's pairings in fandom are sapphic pairings:


In canon, depending the player's actions, some romantic moments between Max Caulfield and Warren Graham occur, however this pairing is much rarer in fandom spaces as a romantic relationship and more often features as a platonic relationship. One of the fanworks on AO3 with the most hits and kudos in the Max Caulfield tag is a post-canon work (following the in-game option to sacrifice Chloe Price to save the town) with a Max Caulfield/Nathan Prescott pairing, though this pairing is also rare on AO3.
