Max Pouvoir Origins

His mother was an American born gypsy sword swallower who worked for traveling carnivals in the late 50's. During a European summer tour, Max's mother met Jacques Pouvoir, a male prostitute who felt an immediate attraction to the young American sword swallower. She returned with child to the States where she continued to work as a sword swallower throughout her pregnancy. Her greatest trick of all was giving birth to little Max Pouvoir, named after his father and their Parisian love affair. She died during childbirth. As a baby, Max was won and lost in at least three separate poker games. Max was raised by bluesmen and grifters, and then later on, wolves and a small television that he still has today. He formed The Max Power Trio shortly after arriving in Ohio at the start of the Millennium.
