Trained alongside Zavala by Saladin Forge, Shaxx later fought in the [[Battle of Twilight Gap]], leading the counterattack that routed the [[Fallen]] from the [[City]]'s walls. Though despite his renown in driving the Fallen away, Shaxx and Saladin had a falling out over Shaxx leading the counterattack which led to their strained relationship which continues despite others making attempts to mend it. After so many [[Guardian]]s 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.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Crucible_Handler|Crucible Handler]]''</ref> In the meantime, he deploys squads of [[Redjacks]] assisted by Guardians to claim new Crucible and [[SRL]] sites.

Shaxx is also highly cautious and tactical but equally fierce when it comes to dealing with the Last City's enemies, more so than most would admit. An example being the aftermath of the Battle of Burning Lake, the first battle with the [[Hive]]. Knowing the need to know more about their foes to develop countermeasures against the Hive Knights Light-stealing swords, Shaxx boldly entered the Consensus Hall to get them to call off the invasion to reclaim the Moon, believing the City isn't prepared to face such forces. Despite his fierce protests and attempts to convince Zalava of the danger, his pleas were discarded. The resulting battle to reclaim the Moon ended in complete failure, even called the [[Great Disaster]], as thousands of Guardians perished at the hands of [[Crota, Son of Oryx]] and his spawn. How Shaxx reacted to this is unknown but no doubt he was saddened at the deaths of so many Guardians but became more determined to prepare the Guardians to face such evil.


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 [[Guardian]]s 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 [[faction]]s of the city, stating that they're "not in charge of the Crucible.
