Biography
Merrat Jaxton was Human male serving the Galactic Alliance. He achieved the rank of Chief of Starfighter Command during the years after the Second Galactic Civil War when many previous high-ranking officers had to be replaced. He was close to Chief of State Natasi Daala and informed her that certain members of the officer corps were unhappy with the way she was handling the tensions between the government and the Jedi Order. He recommended that she instituted an impartial prosecution of Cha Niathal for dereliction of duty during Darth Caedus' rise to power during the Second Galactic Civil War, in order to appease those officers and to show to the public that government officials were not spared the same prosecution that lead to the conviction of Grand Master Luke Skywalker, since both made the same mistake of trusting Caedus.

Jaxton was a part of Senator Haydnat Treen and Moff Drikl Lecersen's plot to overthrow Daala and High Moff Jagged Fel. The end plot was to reinstate the Galactic Empire with Lecersen and Treen as the Emperor and Empress. He met with Lecersen, Treen and Senator Fost Bramsin to discuss the number of naval officers that would ally to their cause. This lead to them discussing the senior naval officer, Admiral Nek Bwua'tu. His loyalty to Daala made him uncorruptible and, while Lecersen wanted to use subtle means to corrupt Bwua'tu, Jaxton proposed to simply assassinate him.

Personality and traits
Jaxton was a human male of average height with a squarish build that the public expected for a military leader. He was a skilled marksman, with the ability to fire a blaster pistol from his hip and still hit a target fifty meters away with great accuracy.
