Biography
Trained alongside Zavala by Saladin Forge, Shaxx fought in the Battle of Twilight Gap, leading the counterattack that routed the Fallen from the City's walls. After so many Guardians had fallen, Shaxx recognized the need for a tough training program so that the next generation of Guardians would be ready for whatever came next. So he created the Crucible, in an attempt to hone Guardians in preparation for another battle as tough as Twilight Gap. He plans to return to war when that day comes.[2] In the meantime, he commands a special squad of Guardians called the Redjacks, who claim new Crucible and SRL sites for him.
Shaxx takes his duties very seriously, as he sees the Crucible as less of a glorified arena and more of an intense training ground. He often laments that the current batch of Guardians don't measure up, and wishes that Commander Zavala would return to the Crucible to show the new recruits how it's done. He also laments having to jockey with the different factions of the city, stating that they're "not in charge of the Crucible. I am."[3] Although he is a Titan, he shows a lot of respect for the other Guardian classes.[1]
Lord Shaxx is also an expert on swordplay, and plays a critical component in aiding Guardians in crafting their own swords in The Taken King. His interest in swords began with the battle of Burning Lake, where the Guardians first fought the Hive and learned of their Sword-Logic the hard way. He's taken it upon himself to learn of how to reverse-engineer the Hive's swords to make them into weapons of light.[4]
