Larious Maxwell is a Zamastanian politician who served as the 83rd Speaker of the Chamber, succeeding Foley Sakzi following the ouster of Anya Bishop from the Presidency. Maxwell also served as the representative for Pahl's 2nd district, which includes his birth city of Duncan, and he was the First Secretary of the Blue Conservative Party, making him one of the leading members of the party's organization. On two separate occasions, he was a candidate for President in 2014 and 2018. Maxwell is known for his staunch business manner, as he has served on many corporate boards and trusts over the course of his life both during and before his political career, which spanned over 30 years. He worked closely with the four "Castovia-era" Presidential administrations (Cassious Castovia, Zacharias Castovia, Anya Bishop, and Foley Sakzi) as an adviser and consultant on many matters, including national security, infrastructure, and healthcare.
On August 11th, 2020, fourteen women came out and accused Maxwell of sexual misconduct in excrutiating detail, which effectively led to Maxwell's initial denial to the claims and eventually admitting and publically apologizing for his actions, where he then resigned from the position of Speaker on August 15th and declined to run for reelection, being replaced by Isaac Kennedy. The Speaker seat was left vacant until the conclusion of the 2020 Zamastan presidential election on September 22nd, 2020, when it was filled by Green Liberal Party politician Natasha Chastain when the Liberals took majority in Congressional Hall.
