Background
From a clan supposedly sharing blood with the lineage of the ancient black dragon emperor of Azumer, Drex left them to do his own thing, knocking around the planets in various mercenary service, under the banner of the Rattlesnake Sabres, a mixed-lineage outfit originating out of Azumer with enough strength and popularity that they have, over the course of the life of the company, been employed all over Spinspace. On his journeys he learned some sword arts and decided to go freelance.
Balasar and Antonius met one night when Balasar was set upon by some Thieves' Guild associates in a mugging; Antonius intervened and they fought well together. Over drinks that night Antonius hired Balasar as a personal guard of sorts.
Balasar previously ran into Marque and Kurga when they were all aboard the same ship; Marque and Kurga were crew while Balasar was part of a mercenary unit which had purchased passage. The ship was attacked by undead and they all fought together in defence.
