Lord Shaxx is also an expert on swordplay, and plays a critical component in aiding [[Guardian]]s in crafting their own [[sword]]s 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, with [[Crota, Son of Oryx]] slaughtering countless [[Guardians]] with his fabled blade. He'd taken it upon himself to learn of how to reverse-engineer the Hive's swords to make them into weapons of light.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-9-15)''', ''Destiny: The Taken King, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Inventory#Bolt-Caster|Bolt-Caster]]''</ref>

Around the time of Crota's defeat, rumors abounded in the Tower regarding Shaxx's connections to [[Osiris]], which caused the Speaker to launch a formal investigation. Shaxx was outraged by this, and sent a letter to the Speaker declaring that he followed no one and found most ideologies espoused by Guardians like Osiris or [[Ulan-Tan]] to be flawed, but that he did think that Osiris' belief that the minds and bodies of Guardians could be sharpened like one sharpens a sword correct, and that the results in the Crucible spoke for themselves.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/12/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Conqueror 2]]''</ref>


During [[The Dawning]], [[Cayde-6]] conned him into loosening up to mingle with the City's children after Shaxx failed to outrun his [[Golden Gun]] in a bet, a feat that Shaxx grudgingly accepted once he started training two kids in the ways of the Crucible. He was vindicated when one of those kids discreetly hit Cayde with a ball. On the way back to the Tower, he once again bet that he could beat the Golden Gun, and Cayde happily accepted.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/28/3)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Lord_Shaxx|Ghost Fragment: Lord Shaxx]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2017/28/3)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Lord_Shaxx_2|Ghost Fragment: Lord Shaxx 2]]''</ref>
