Maddox Selsam

Maddox Selsam is a character who appeared in Double Down. He found Greg's balloon from the Balloon Brigade. He lives in the next town over from Greg, and he also plays the violin. He saw Greg's balloon dangling from a tree outside his window while practicing his violin. He lives in a greatly unpopulated area, where they have few neighbors as it is mentioned. He has never played video games, and he goes wild when he sees video games, Greg played a video game at his house which was Maddox's first-ever video game he'd seen. He freaks out so much that Mrs. Selsam has to take him home. His home doesn't have a TV and in the living room, there is a bookshelf in place of a TV. His room contains tons of Legos that collectively are most likely expensive in value which his mom buys for him whenever he wants a Lego set, which means his mom may be rich.

Relationship with Greg
Maddox's relationship with Greg didn't last long. When Greg goes to Maddox's house, Maddox shows him his room. He has a large Lego City. Maddox doesn't allow Greg to go near his Lego Sets and only lets him use the unused "leftover" parts in a bin. A piece from the leftover bin goes missing when Greg was allowed to play with only the legos in the leftovers bin, and when he finished playing with them, the missing piece got stuck to his elbow. He accused him of stealing his Lego bricks, leading Greg to be kicked out of his house and ending their relationship.
