## Early Years

### Clan Hall

Drago's early years where at the Tell clan hall on Zeus. He often got into mischief with the other boys at the Clan hall residence especially with Jaxon, Jarra's older brother.

But when he was around 11 years old, his best friend and cousin Jaxon started to change and became distant from their friendship. Drago was kept busy and on other planets starting around then so rarely ever saw Jaxon until he was assigned to his fighter team.

### Military School

When he was ten years-old, Jaxon dragged Drago in as a last minute emergency replacement for an injured "five high" team mate, just before the "knock-out tournament".

All of the senior teams, ages 12 to 14 were playing together and Jaxon's team of twelve-year-olds won by a large margin against the more experienced teams, in part because of Drago's smaller and faster size. A few days later a couple of the fourteen-year-old boys sneaked over to the junior section of the school and waylaid Drago, beating him up which included breaking his nose (the first time).

The boys were expelled from Military school which meant they were barred from attending any other military school. They attended a civilian school and then applied to the military as sector recruits. One of the boys in in a military support job doing construction and the other was dishonorably discharged for violence. He went to a frontier world in Kappa Sector.

### Coming of Age Ceremony

When Drago was 18, he went through the clan's Coming-of-Age-Ceremony, lead by his father. To be able to enter the hall where the ceremony is held he had to provide a drop of blood to prove that he was a Tell descendant.

During the ceremony he learned the Tell Clan secrets, they were so shocking that immediately after the ceremony he fled Zeus for Academy and his military schooling. Which is how he and Gemelle ended up in the same class, as he went a little early and she went late because after her coming-of-age, she wanted time to think things through before continuing with her plans.

### Military Academy

He never paid much attention to Jaxon's younger sister Gemelle until they ended up at the Military Academy at the same time. At that point he learned that while he and Jaxon were pulling pranks as children, Gemelle was breaking into the security systems at high profile locations on Zeus. When she was caught, she was recruited as the youngest member for the Military Security. By the time Drago arrived at the Academy, she was already a Captain.

Drago was extremely impressed and fell in love with Gemelle. However, Gemelle was already in a serious relationship and did not return his feelings. After Gemelle rejected his marriage proposal, a deeply hurt and outraged Drago engineered a situation to get Gemelle to break up with her boyfriend and marry Drago instead. His plan failed, Gemelle was extremely angry, and she used the Betan custom of "blanking" to block Drago out of her life.

After he alienated Gemelle, Drago went off to fighter pilot training school and upon graduating was assigned to Jaxon's fighter squadron.
