## Biography

### Central Security

During the Federation Prelude, Adrian Lux held the rank of Staff Warrant Officer, and was a member of Alpha Team. Although part of the team, Lux was the team's operations chief who remained at the tactical operations centre as 'Dispatch' and relayed information to the team when needed.

As the team's Operations Chief, Lux assisted Alpha Team in both terrorist cell operations at the apartment complex in downtown Enderossi, and the apartment building in Halusii. Since the 2054 Incident, Lux has always wanted to be a part of the mercenary group who attacked the Gilstein Palace but never knew who was involved in it.

Only after Alpha Team began to uncover the truths behind the incident did Lux realise who was behind it. This soon led to Lux being approached by Director Eric Saunders to join forces in a new alliance between the Alvitr Kingdom and Central Security which would be led by Armin Alvitr and Saunders respectively. Agreeing to the alliance, Lux made it his mission to assassinate the members of Alpha Team to prevent the uncovering of the 2054 incident. While being able to successfully assassinate Wellington, Lux wasn't able to kill any of the other members. The rebellion was still placed forward and hundreds of Central Security officers were killed, allowing Lux to escape his detainees after being captured by the Central Security awaiting outside the 1st Enderossi Regiment Precinct.

### Battle of Lancaster

After joining the ACS, Lux is first spotted in the city of Lancaster in the Mansfield Province of Ansaris. With the Orion Nero Initiative launching an invasion on the city, Lux is forced into hiding in a hideout in a nearby town, Goulburn. After Special Operations Detachment units raid Fort Vizor in Lancaster and pinpoint Lux's hideout to two locations, Lux is captured in Goulburn after being raided by Viking Team.

### Interrogation

Brought back to Fire Support Base Sword, Lux undergoes interrogation by members of the Joint Communications Unit. Lux leaks information about a Weapons Research and Development Facility located in the Bentley Rainforest thinking that the ONI wouldn't be able to find any evidence. To his surprise, the Joint Special Operations Command manage to find intelligence on a second research facility in Azure Province which houses all the information about the ACS superweapon.

### Escape

Lux learns that the scientists he hired to develop the superweapon have leaked everything to the ONI, and makes it his mission to tie up all the loose ends when he is freed. Knowing that Cpt. Ajani of the Sentinel Corps is a double agent working for the ACS as per Eric Saunders' plan, Lux is freed from his cell by Ajani in which he helps kill two JCU interrogators, as well as the two scientists working on the superweapon to prevent anybody from leaking the information to the ONI.

Ajani and the help of several members of Rancor Company successfully aid in Lux's escape from the ONI base before two members are killed by Lux to silence any more witnesses. Deciding to spare Ajani's life after rejecting a spot on the ACS for Ajani since he just demonstrated his lack of loyalty, Lux steals one of the Pumas and escapes.

### Final Stand and Death

Lux ditches the Puma in the Faraday Redwood Forest and relocates to an abandoned castle in the area as his final staging area. With the Yanko Mark I in his possession, he tried to set up plans to detonate the WMD in Orion, but before he is able to, S-O-D learn of Lux's objective after capturing Ajani before he is silenced by the ACS. Special Operators part of Task Force Mako infiltrate the castle and seize the Yanko Mart I first before finally killing Lux who is determined not to be taken alive at any cost.
