Axel is one of the main characters in Minecraft: Story Mode, known to be a prankster and one of Jesse's closest friends.
Axel has a huge build and is tall in appearance. He has short, black hair along with a unibrow and his skin is pale white. He wears a green jacket, black finger-less gloves, tan pants, and sandals. Later on, he also gains a helmet similar to Magnus the Rogue's, a chest piece similar to his former shirt with gloves and brown boots.
In Season Two, Axel's jacket is now replaced with a green plaid flannel, which is left unbuttoned to reveal a black t-shirt with a skull on it.
Axel is portrayed to be a joker who enjoys making people laugh. He acts as a source of comic relief, making lots of sarcastic quips and short one-liners. Over the course of the story, he is revealed to be a bit of a coward, but is very fierce when defending his friends and will risk a great deal to protect them. He is, at times, loud and explosive and enjoys griefing. Axel is also shown to be a kleptomaniac, as he tries to steal small items whenever he can.
A quote by Axel, "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is sad", references a Bible verse; Mark 14:38.
Axel, alongside other characters such as Slab, Clutch, Emily, Fred, and Capital T possess a unique, wider build not seen with typical Minecraft characters, similar to the proportions of an iron golem.
According to Eric Stirpe, Axel was originally going to have a pet bat in Assembly Required, which had to be cut due to budgetary restraints. [1]
Originally, during a period when the game was aimed at older audiences, Axel would have been quite vulgar. [2]
