[Character information]
Name: Axton
Canon: Borderlands 2
Age: 26
History
From his Wiki
Originally from Hieronymous, Axton spent 10 years with the Dahl military force, reaching the rank of Sergeant. After his pursuit of personal glory and disregard for orders led to numerous compromised missions, his commanding officer and wife Sarah discharged him from the military rather bluntly, which would have led to his death by firing squad. She wasn't completely cold to her ex-husband, suggesting not-so-subtlely that he flee to the border worlds. She also insisted he take back her wedding ring, saying she never liked diamonds. Ouch. Taking her suggestion, Axton went AWOL, using his skills and turret as a mercenary on other planets.
Axton became aware of the Vault thanks to a radio advertisement orchestrated by Handsome Jack, who had been monitoring the Commando's most recent bounty hunt. Although Axton was turning in more bounties and making far more money than anyone else in Sherriff Youngblood's jurisdiction, he found that it was too easy, and the lure of fame, fortune, and challenging combat drew him to Pandora.
