Jax-007



SPARTAN-007, also known as Jax-007 and Codename: MATADOR, was a SPARTAN-II Commando of Project SIGMA. As an expert in hand-to-hand combat and frontline assaults, Jax proved himself as an incredibly dangerous Spartan during the, where he participated in numerous campaigns and helped win several victories against the Covenant. Despite the numerous losses Sigma Team faced during this period, his skills and endurance ensured that he survived the worst the Covenant could throw at him.

Emerging from the war as one of the few surviving SPARTAN-II's, Jax and his comrades spent a number of years putting down various Insurrectionist and Covenant remnant groups that had begun to spring up around the rebuilding colonies, eliminating alien warlords and ensuring that the colonies remained loyal to the UNSC. In 2569, Jax was among those chosen to lead the SPARTAN-IV Program's newly-created Zulu Company and spent well over a decade training children into Spartans as conditions worsened in the colonies and a new rebel group known as The Legion rose to prominence.

Jax returned to fight in the 2580s and participated in the cataclysmic Requiem Campaign and Operation: DARK STAR, before helping lead several operations to eliminate more Forerunner devices and stop the Legion from acquiring them for their own ends. The ageing Spartan took part in the final battles of the First Galactic War on Sanghelios and Minerva, and was a critical figure in securing the UNSC's victory in the latter. However, Jax was lost in space following the battle's climax and by 2600 was presumed dead by many. While he survived on a far-off world, the Spartan was remembered among the 26th century's greatest heroes.
