=== Early Life ===
Waxillium is a descendant of [[Edgard Ladrian]] and [[Allrianne Cett]]. He is of mixed heritage, with [[Terris]] on his mother's side and [[Noble]] on his father's side,{{book ref|mb5|6}} and he is said to have more Terris blood than most.{{book ref|mb5|5}} He was raised under a noble house and lived a life of luxury--something he detested.{{book ref|mb6|prologue}} He and his sister, [[Telsin]], were mostly raised by their uncle in [[Elendel]], with their parents dying in what was reported as an accident.{{book ref|mb7|35}}{{book ref|mb5|5}} Telsin claims this death was due to [[Harmony]]'s [[
At the age of 12, his uncle began grooming him to run the family-operated [[First Central Bank]]. Wax became disgusted by the unethical practices of the bank and distanced himself from the role.{{book ref|mb5|8}}
Wax finally returned to Elendel, where he gave over the spearhead into the hands of the kandra. No longer willing to put it off, and ready to move on with his life, Wax convinced Steris to marry him in a quiet ceremony, highlighted by their newly blossomed love for each other.{{book ref|mb6|31}} On their honeymoon, Wax was suddenly awakened by the sound of an explosion in the distance. Wandering their suite, Wax found himself absently handling the dual metal coin that the beggar had given him, before the party in New Seran. Looking closely at the coin for what seemed like the first time, Wax hesitantly tested tapping it like a metalmind, which sprang to life a copper-stored memory, seemingly belonging to the mysterious [[Sovereign]].{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}
=== Lawman Senator of the Roughs ===
Shortly after the events in the south, he retired as a lawman and became a senator in order to try to bring about change. He also settled down with Steris, and had two children, [[Maxillium Ladrian| Maxillium]] and [[Tindwyl Ladrian]].{{book ref|mb7|2}}
Upon hearing about the [[Elendel Supremacy Bill]], he began to go across the Outer cities and roughs in an attempt to gather support, from both the people, governers, and other senators. He also looked for the corruption and sold votes in the senate, so that he could attempt to reveal it to stall the vote. He ultimately failed, with the Bill passing.{{book ref|mb7|2}}
Later, he was experimenting with trellium (supplied to him by Marasi) and harmonium, and discovered their explosive interaction with each other.{{book ref|mb7|11}}{{book ref|mb7|13}}{{book ref|mb7|17}} This filled him with panic over the idea of the Set having already discovered it before him.{{book ref|mb7|17}}
