Jax/Trivia

## General

* Jax is voiced by Erik Braa, who also voices  Draven,  Primetime Draven, and  Vel'Koz.

* Before lore retconning, the name *Jax* was Ionian, now it's short for *Saijax*, with forgotten meaning.
* Jax's eyes are blue.

## Lore

* **Jax's** full name is Saijax Cail-Rynx Kohari Icath’un, his full name consists five elements specific to Icathian naming convention:
	1. Birth name,
	2. Mother's name,
	3. Father's name,
	4. Occupation / social standing,
	5. Clan name.
* Before his transformation, Saijax was a giant with a shaven-head, skin pockmarked by the ravages of a childhood illness, and a forked beard stiffened to points with wax and white chalk.
	+ He headed the *Kohari*, "life-wards" of the Icathian Mage-Kings; though considered a "master of weapons", he often wielded an Icathian axe-headed polearm as his primary weapon.
* Jax's favorite food is eggs, particularly those from a certain caravansary in the Shuriman City of Uzeris. His prefered method of egg consumption is to boil them.

## Quotes

 Jaximus
* "Here's to you, kid!" references Joe, an Ewing's sarcoma patient who, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, was able to visit Riot Games Inc.'s headquarters.
	+ Jaximus was Joe's favorite skin, and after he passed away in 05-Jun-2012, the Grandmaster at Arms says the line in his memory.
