His Terris name is '''Asinthew'''.{{book ref|mb5|5}}
After the reported death of his uncle, Wax is implored to return to Elendel and begin managing the ledgers of his house. Initially ignoring this request, Wax chooses instead to hunt the murderous Bloody Tan, as his last bounty. In a horrifying turn of events, Waxillium mistakenly shoots Lessie in the forehead, when attempting to free her from Bloody Tan's clutches. With nothing left for him in the Roughs, Wax returns to his family house in Elendel.{{book ref|mb4|Prologue}}
In his early months in Elendel, Wax earned a reputation for frequently disappearing early from social functions,
Throwing himself into the much more mundane effort of saving his house’s financial future, Waxillium spends half a year working to reverse his late uncle’s squandering of the family funds. Believing there is no other choice, he enters into a marriage agreement with [[Lord Harms]]’ daughter, [[Steris]], hoping her father’s money can help bring House Ladrian back from the brink of destitution.
Wax is a talented marksman, preferring to use two guns at once. He has been shown to shoot a bullet that was put off course by the speed bubble of a [[bendalloy|Slider]], scoring a lethal shot as a result.{{book ref|mb4|19}} However, due to a traumatic misfire that resulted in the death of a loved one, Wax tends to act nervously when faced with hostage situations.
Wax also practices basic metallurgy as a hobby, and he is shown to be a talented investigator.
