| ==Overview==
| | Not much is known about '''Traxus''',<ref>[[Last Resort (Level)|Last Resort]]</ref> other than its name. It is a [[Human]] company probably based on [[Earth]]. There are several windows in [[Wind Power Station 7]] on [[Zanzibar Island]] with this word (possibly the name of an Earth company) written on them, with "09" written underneath in smaller lettering. In ''[[Halo 3]]'', Traxus has been seen on the cargo crates similar to the way [[COBB Industries]] was referenced on crates in ''[[Halo 2]]''. Based on these appearances, it is probably some form of shipping or transport company or perhaps manufacturing. The word "Traxus" can also be seen at the beginning of the ''Halo 3: Keep it Clean trailer'', in the city of [[New Mombasa]], possibly confirming it is involved in shipping as New Mombasa is a busy port having proximity to the prominent orbital transport in the center of the city. As seen in multiplayer gaming, [[Avalanche (Level)|Avalanche]], [[Blackout (Level)|Blackout]], [[Ghost Town (Level)|Ghost Town]], [[High Ground (Level)|High Ground]], [[The Pit (Level)|The Pit]], [[Last Resort (Level)|Last Resort]], [[Rat's Nest (Level)|Rat's Nest]] and [[Floodgate (Level)|Floodgate]] hold available props that have the word "Traxus" printed on them. Also, another major company in the level the [[The Storm (Level)|Storm]] is named "Sinoviet" that produces a wide range of cars. |
