Sir Paxton of Nond (pronounced PAKS-tuhn) is a Tortallan nobleman and knight. He is a member of the prominent Nond family.

He took Joren of Stone Mountain as his squire in 452 HE, suggesting a friendship with the Stone Mountain family. When Joren was put on trial for paying two men to kidnap Lalasa Isran, the maid of Keladry of Mindelan and stash her on Balor's Needle, so Kel would be forced to miss the examinations for fourth years, Sir Paxton claimed innocence of all knowledge of Joren's wrongdoing. Turomot of Wellam, the Lord Magistrate, believed him, as he seemed anxious enough about it and apologized to him and Keladry.

In the second half of the 450s HE, Sir Paxton was in his early thirties and looked tired and anxious.

It is very likely that Merovec of Nond, Florzile of Nond and Francis of Nond were kinsfolk of Paxton, although nothing about how close they were related was stated in the novels.

He only appears as a minor character in Squire.
