Multiple Max

Then there's the stuff that sends us for a whirl, such as the case of Multiple Max. You've got all these worlds, right? A lot of them are destroyed or have escapees from a planetwide tyranny or arrived here through a freak accident. There's not many each year, but a significant portion of them are the more or less the same person. Just one person. Do you know the chances of that?

Sometimes Max is male, or female. Sometimes they're human or not. Sometimes they're Max, or Maxine, or Maximillium, or Maxis or what have you. But the strange thing is that they're all as close to identical in DNA as possible, even when it shouldn't work that way. A mobile brain-in-a-jar should not have that kind of similarity with a roman legionnaire, but they do. Even if their personalities are different, there are similar patterns in their lives, similar people, similar places, similar victories and defeats, as you'd expect from alternative versions of yourself, no matter what time or place or strange interdimensional thing they're from. But there's one thing about them: They work really well together. Seriously. Even the ex-slave and the roman slave-owner. If you want something solved, send a team of Maxes in to deal with it. They'll fix it every time.
