The hockey prodigy known as Jax is feared throughout the tournament circuit for his incredible reflexes and ability to kill a man with any object. There are rumors he used to be a defense attorney, but nobody knows for certain.

A wandering warrior feared by the wasteland's many roving gangs, Jax casually strolls across miles of broken highway with a two-by-four and a few rusty nails, crushing the heads of anyone he happens to run into. It gets just as ugly as it sounds.

Nothing quite like the peace of the great outdoors, waiting for that perfect bite—and then violently ripping a fish out of the water before hitting it with his fishing rod.

In a fighters' colosseum, Jax's victories were celebrated by a young kid and dedicated fan, Joe. Jax found that Joe himself was an incredible warrior, far braver than anyone Jax had met. Joe gave Jax the nickname “Jaximus,” a title he heartily accepted. “Here's to you, kid,” declared Jax as he charged into battle, hoisting the lamplight in Joe's honor.

Jax's search for inner peace brought him to many temples and the tutelage of various martial masters. His fiery attitude got him in trouble often, but Jax learned to appreciate the schooling. Tempering his battle prowess with a serene, strategic mind, Jax now faces every fight with a renewed unity of mind, body, and spirit.

No one knows what lies beneath the glowing mask. Human, monster, or something more, it wields a violet lantern-mace and travels from conflict to conflict.

The God Staff was once an earthly champion, who searched fruitlessly for a weapon worthy of his power. At the twilight of his life, he finally came across a staff glowing with the light of the gods—granting him immortality, and even greater strength.

Famed as the greatest weapons master in all the land, Jax has been itching for a proper weapon, and a proper fight. When the best minds of the Estercrest Kingdom came together—using strange technology seemingly gifted to them by the heavens—to construct an indomitable Avalon, Jax was finally impressed. He welcomes the leviathan invasion, hoping these monstrous foes will prove to be the challenge he has been searching for his entire life.

Hailing from a realm where he failed to protect his kingdom from annihilation, Jax was content to live in exile, until everything collapsed.

A special event Skin celebrating PAX and Jax's 2023 visual update.

An ancient warrior whose lifespan was extended through experimental tech, Jax once defended the city's outskirts from the horrors of PROJECT's control.
