Jax was a renowned architect on his world who was brought onto the committee overseeing the construction of Paradise Towers. He had opposed the Chairman and the Liaison Officer when they proposed drugging the residents of the Towers with trank, a drug that would make them submissive. He attempted to plant a mechanism in the trank tank to allow him to shut down the machine once construction checks were finished. However, he was apprehended by the Liaison Officer and fell into the tank, absorbing lots of trank in the process. The Liaison Officer, knowing he would now be submissive due to the trank he ingested, believed Jax was the ideal candidate for the Chief Caretaker role at Paradise Towers.

The Chief even had [[Caretaker 345/12, subsection 3]] killed to feed the creature. He thought of himself as the creature's "daddy". | Unknown to his staff, the Chief had found a creature in the basement and made it his pet.
