'''Axl''' is a [[Yonhet]] smuggler and trader.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint enc}}

Axl, like many others of his species, largely remained in hiding until the [[Human-Covenant War]] was over, as the conflict had made smuggling and trade much too dangerous and difficult.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint enc}}  

At the conclusion of the war, Axl was a workless immigrant. In early [[2556]], Axl had come into possession of a lethal element which only targeted [[humans]]. He traveled to the [[Outer Colonies|Outer Colony]] planet [[Sedra]] to deliver the weapon to a [[terrorism|terrorist]] group. After waiting for some time by [[Morning Lake]], Axl met with [[Unidentified Sangheili Zealot (Sedra)|a Sangheili Zealot]] and completed the transaction.<ref name="nf1">'''[[Halo: Nightfall]]''', ''Chapter 1''</ref> However, Axl was identified by a [[Sedra Environmental Security]] surveillance camera and the location of the deal was discovered by an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] [[Locke's team|unit]].<ref name="walk">'''Halo: Nightfall''', ''[[Halo: Nightfall: ONI: Walk the Path|ONI: Walk the Path]]''</ref> With the transaction complete, the Zealot departed the location and ONI agent [[Gregory Ramos]] proceeded to arrest Axl.{{Ref/Reuse|nf1}} After the Zealot carried out an immediate [[Terrorist attack on Sedra City|terrorist attack]] in the [[City of Sedra]], Axl was brought into questioning by Sergeant [[Samantha Wisner]] of the [[Sedran Colonial Guard]].<ref name="path">'''Halo: Nightfall''', ''[[Halo: Nightfall: The Path of Belief|The Path of Belief]]''</ref>

With the help of [[translation software]], Wisner questioned the Yonhet, who insisted that he was a legal citizen of the colony. Axl's lack of cooperation led to Wisner briefly holding him at gunpoint. The initial interrogation proved fruitless, with Axl claiming that he did not know anything about the attack.{{Ref/Reuse|path}} Colonel [[Randall Aiken]] later violently interrogated Axl. However, ONI agent [[Jameson Locke]] was able to communicate with the Yonhet and persuaded Axl to reveal what information he knew.{{Ref/Reuse|nf1}}

Axl was a pious follower of the [[Covenant religion]], even after the [[Human-Covenant War]] and the [[Covenant]]'s dissolution. During his initial interrogation at the hands of [[Samantha Wisner]], he insisted that the Great Journey was real and that nothing could stop it from occurring.{{Ref/Reuse|path}} Upon arriving at [[Sedra]], Axl began to regret his dealings with the [[Sangheili]], as he regarded the entire race as "reckless" and "fools". Axl was an established smuggler, typically operating in the [[Covenant fringe]] territory, and was considered to be dangerous by the [[Unified Earth Government]].{{Ref/Reuse|walk}} He was capable of speaking [[Yonhetian]] and a Covenant trade pidgin.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint enc}}
