## Biography

### Background

Drebin Falkahn, better known as Dreadfang, emerged from the crucible of a brutal and enigmatic past. Born in the tumultuous year of 2027, his early life was marred by imprisonment. Raised within the grim confines of an undisclosed Aryan maximum-security prison, he bore witness to the darkest aspects of nevanity from a tender age.

Drebin's childhood was a paradoxical blend of isolation and violence. Growing up within the prison's unforgiving walls, he was molded by the ruthless environment that surrounded him. His physical prowess developed early, a result of relentless training and, some whispered, the excessive use of steroids that, surprisingly, granted him near-superhuman strength, endurance, and durability. Despite these physical gifts, it was his uncontrollable temper that set him apart - a volatile fury that ignited with the slightest provocation.

In the harrowing year of 2050, Drebin's life took a darker turn when, at the age of just fourteen, he committed a war crime that would haunt him forever. The details remained shrouded in secrecy, but the act was deemed so heinous that it earned him a one-way ticket back to the very prison he had sought to escape. Within the confines of his cell, his rage festered, threatening to consume him entirely.

### Code Black: Haywire

Fate intervened when the Winslow Accord, in need of soldiers with unmatched physical capabilities, plucked Drebin from the depths of despair. In 2051, a catastrophic injury left him crippled and seemingly broken beyond repair. However, the Accord's cutting-edge cybernetic technology presented a lifeline. They transformed him into a cybernetic soldier, a nevian-cyborg hybrid with formidable combat potential.

Recognizing the volatile nature of Dreadfang's temper and his unpredictable tendencies on the battlefield, Tristan Hendricks, a brilliant commander within the Winslow Accord, proposed a daring solution. He suggested implanting Drebin with an Emotional Suppressant, a groundbreaking technology designed to quell his rage and ensure that his newfound cybernetic body would serve the Accord's objectives without hesitation.

### PROJECT-G/NEX Chronicles

A one thousand years later, a cryogenically preserved and maintained Dreadfang is confirmed to be sighted on the *PROJECT-G/NEX War* through video recordings and recovered footage. Details are left unknown aside from the videos.

### Dawn of Era: An Uprising

Through *A New Era*, Dreadfang has became an easy candidate for the Stryke Blast Initiative to fill out the need for a large, brutish cybernetically enhanced soldier to expand their personnel. His memory was erased from the Winslow Accord and now transformed him to become a subservient brutish soldier into the Initiative.
