Biography
During the Great Ahamkara Hunt, Joxer was dispatched by the Vanguard to retrieve weapons being offered by the Reef to combat the reality-altering Ahamkara. As he waited for the Reef representative to arrive, Joxer repeatedly checked the safety on his rifle. The ninth time he did so, Illyn appeared with a floating container and reassured him he would not need his weapon. Joxer did not lower his auto rifle and the Techeun mocked him and the Guardians for being so afraid despite the power of their Light and their desperate turn to Queen Mara Sov for aid. He retorted that the Ahamkara were destroying entire regions of Venus and declared it was a problem he was unable to just punch and demanded the weapons. Illyn opened the container to show him the weapons within and stated they must all be returned once the hunt was done. Joxer questioned why, and Illyn stated those were the conditions she had set with her bargain. Joxer tried to get more information from Illyn about the deal, but the Techeun remained quite so Joxer hefted the container onto his back and departed.[1]
Decades later, Joxer and his fellow Titan Redrix-3 were guarding a train with a Crucible weapons shipment that included Tex Mechanica weaponry. After two Redjacks were eliminated by an intruder, the two Titans found and confronted The Drifter, whom Joxer had gotten to know through his participation in Gambit. Joxer questioned what the mysterious Lightbearer was doing there, and the Drifter explained he needed weapons parts to craft the rewards he handed out in Gambit matches before asking for them to let him take what he needed. Joxer responded that Commander Zavala would not approve, but the Drifter scornfully asked if the Vanguard actually had power over the two Titans before offering to double the value of their Motes of Darkness in their next Gambit matches. The two Titans looked at each other and accepted the Drifter's offer.[2] As the Drifter plundered the Tex Mechanica crates, Joxer and Redrix repaired the Redjacks to cover his tracks. As the Drifter was departing, they stared wearily at the armament he was carrying. The Drifter stopped and began reassuring them he had a reason for everything he was doing and asked how many Motes of Light they had collected over the years, causing Joxer to remark that he missed his Vex Mythoclast. This caused the Drifter to point out how the Light had failed them all in the Red War, but that utilizing Motes of Darkness could change everything before promising that if they stuck with him, he could show them what the Darkness could really do.[3]
