This was a character concept for Max's best friend and unofficial brother Ray. Ray is a very aggressive Wind element Crocodile who when they were younger was motivated to start working out and staying in shape because of Max (Who is always way more serious than his peers)

In highschool Ray made the mistake of commenting on Max's body and Max made it a running joke to flirt with Ray, Ray is the only one to see Max's perverted flirty side where as most people just see him as a showoff or a grumpy asshole.

They are both wrestlers. Ray's grapples are neaturally alot stronger than Max's (He IS a croc) but Ray was never able to overwhelm Max. The only real differance other than their clothing colors (Max prefers dark colors and Ray prefers light) is Ray loves swimming and Max is terrified of water, usually serving as revenge against Max (Crocs are known to try dragging their prey into the water)

Ray has a Goatee but I forgot to draw it.
