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 [[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 commands a special squad of Guardians called the [[Redjack]]s, who claim new Crucible and [[SRL]] sites for him. | 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.

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.
