Known History

Elliot Maxwell arrived in New Haven in June of 2008. Within weeks, he was named Assistant to the Keeper of Elysium and moved from there but a handful of weeks later to the position of Sheriff. He held this position for only a couple months before taking the position of Seneschal in the fall of 2008, under Prince Alejandro Patron.

Elliot Maxwell suddenly resigned his position as Seneschal and moved to Sacramento in January of 2009. Shortly after, he was named Keeper of Elysium in that domain. He held this position until late Summer 2009, when he suddenly resigned and moved back to New Haven to the position of Seneschal under Prince Heather. He held this position until he took Praxis.

Elliot Maxwell assumed Praxis of New Haven, California on October 9th, 2009 after returning from a vacation to Las Vegas. During this vacation, the previous Prince abdicated her position. Maxwell's reign was tumultuous and came to a violent end on May 21, 2010 when William Bataavas and his allies torpored him and claimed the city.

William Bataavas quickly lost his Praxis to Prokofy Romanov. Elliot Maxwell declined to serve as Seneschal to Prince Romanov, electing instead to take a position on the Primogen Council.

But two months later, Noel Nox took Praxis in New Haven, and Elliot Maxwell agreed to serve as his Seneschal.

In November of 2010, Alejandro Patron reclaimed the city, retaining Elliot as his Seneschal. He retained this position until February 17, 2012 when he resigned as Seneschal and quickly took the position of Harpy from a newly restructured Primogen Council, following a lecture to the court as a whole about why the system of Prestation necessarily must be maintained.

Surprising to the Council of New Haven, on December 7, 2012, Elliot Maxwell resigned as Harpy in order to take up the position of Seneschal of Sacramento. He held this position until August 26, 2013, when he resigned quite unexpectedly.

On October 26, 2013, Elliot Maxwell announced to the domain of Sacramento that Michael "Cash" McCovern was no longer in a position to hold the Praxis of Sacramento and so he was claiming it for himself. A few nights later, Michael "Cash" McCovern sent letters publicly claiming he still held the domain of Sacramento. After a couple tense days, on October 31, 2013, Michael "Cash" McCovern ceded his claim to the Praxis of Sacramento, leaving Elliot Maxwell as Prince.

He's a familiar name to the Devil for his dealings with the Occult.
