Born into a family of Chiss Naval Officers, Drath're'skal was essentially born into his role in life. He formally joined the Chiss Academy at the Age of 8 where he pushed himself to try and become the best soldier he could possibly be.
'''Drath're'skal''' more commonly known by the abbreviated version of 'Thresk' was born on Year -6, Day 169 on Csilla where he'd spent much of his youth. Born into a family of Chiss Naval Officers, Drath're'skal was groomed by his parents to become the pinnacle of what a soldier can achieve. Striving to fulfill his parents' wishes, he's constantly on the lookout for new challenges, aiming at eventually reaching the position of the Galaxy's number one warrior.

==Youth on Csilla==
==Youth on Csilla==
The vast majority of Thresk's childhood had been directly affected by the family he had been born into. His parents, two distinguished naval officers in the Csillan military, had done everything in their power to ensure that their only son would meet their high expectations, and exceed them. Where other children had spent time playing, socializing, and enjoying the carefree lifestyle of the underaged, Thresk would have his body honed in ways both mental and physical. Knowing no other lifestyle than the one of constant austere personal improvement, he'd pour over books written by the great generals of old, train his body to reach peak athletic performance, and cultivate his abilities regarding combat, both at a distance and at close range.


Coming from a family with a history with deep roots in the Chiss Ascendancy's military, Thresk had an atypical upbringing from other children on the planet. He was aggressively encouraged by his parents to try and achieve peak physical form and to maintain it from a young age. Physical fitness was preached in the household, as well as analytical thinking. Time that other children spent playing or studying, Thresk was made to spend maintaining his strength and studying battle records.
At 8 years of age, Thresk had enlisted into the Chiss Academy on Csilla, well eager to test himself against his peers in what his father had considered a staple form of education for future military progeny. Thanks to his unique upbringing, he would excel across the board, accruing highest marks whenever possible. There was not one recruit in his unit that would be accustomed to such training intensity as exhibited by himself, routinely. However, what he made up for in efficiency, he lacked in empathy and social skills. Almost like a machine, he found himself unable to properly handle more difficult social interactions between himself and his classmates, due to him having little to no experience in that regard whatsoever. Despite these handicaps, he graduated with straight As and was soon given his own squad to command.


At 8 years old, Thresk was enlisted into the Chiss Academy on Csilla. This was a decision that he hardly had a say in due to his family's history, but one that he was willing to accept. He excelled in the physical aspects of the academy, and proved himself as a strong tactician. This wasn't to say that he did not have his flaws, however. Due to his rather isolated upbringing, he struggled with empathy and connecting with his fellow cadets. On top of this, Thresk also had a hot temper and disregard for honor when pushed too far.
==The Krayt and the Pearl==
 
Thresk's capabilities would soon earn him endless praise from the instructors. It would not be uncommon for him to outperform his teachers on the regular, pulling off stunts and feats other students could only dream of. Soon, he'd gathered a small group of adorators and followers that would watch his every footstep, either in blind awe, or in an attempt to learn from him. His ego had grown exponentially and there was nothing to challenge him. In his pride, he'd called in a vacationand set out for Tatooine to further cement his fame with the biggest feat of his life: Hunting a Krayt Dragon.


Despite the criticisms, his unparalleled strength and tactical expertise combined with his parents influence, Thresk was given leadership of a squad in the academy.
Gathering a handful of his closest fans, Thresk would set out at earnest. The planet's hot climate proved difficult to handle for his fellow Chiss, but the conditioning they'd gone through would make them reach the den of the beast relatively unscathed.


==The Krayt and the Pearl==
What had followed was not as much of a hunt as it was a massacre. The Dragon had ultimately been felled, but not before killing most of his men outright and severely wounding Thresk in the process.


Drath're'skal had once heard of a fearsome beast stalking the deserts of Tatooine, and at the mere age of 12 became determined to make his mark in the galaxy by hunting down this terrifying beast. During an interim break from the Academy he stole a shuttle craft with a handful of other students and departed for the desert planet to start stalking their future prey.  
Upon returning home, Thresk's reputation shattered like glass. The image of a hard-working prodigy had been replaced with that of an overconfident fluke, responsible for the deaths of his colleagues. The two final nails in the coffin came in the form of his parents disowning him and him being expelled from the Academy. Ashamed and humbled, Thresk had set out to find his own place in the Galaxy.

Thresk's path led him to a Gran known as Kez Aak, a man dead set on forging his own destiny out of the resources at his disposal. Kez aimed to create a logistics faction that could be relied upon by any being in the galaxy, no matter their alignment. Despite Thresk's recent arrival from the Unknown Regions, and his limited grasp of Basic, Kez extended an offer to Thresk to help him and a few others realize this dream. Together, they were able to create the faction, Endless Endeavors, and help Thresk develop his understanding of the galaxy around him.

Together, they were able to create Endless Endeavors and it was during this time that Thresk discovered that life wasn't just military and combat.


Mostly assigned to transportation jobs, Thresk was able to further develop his piloting skills and knowledge of ships that he had not had exposure to while growing up in Csilla. This exposure to these exotic ships, many held by wealthier citizens of the galaxy, also encouraged Thresk's desire to collect and study the rarer ships there were.
Given the company's nature, Thresk was able to further develop his piloting skills as well as expand his knowledge of the hundreds of ships alien to the Csillan habitat. This led to him forming a hobby out of collecting the rarer and more unique ship models, as well as developing a passion for the mechanical.


For almost a year Thresk stayed in Endless Endeavors, demonstrating a desire to help establish the faction as a premier service. He would eventually achieve the role of Transport Lead, heading the entire division for Endless Endeavors. However, wanting to see what else the galaxy had to offer, and wanting to utilize his other skills that he brought from Csilla, Thresk would leave Endless Endeavors late into Y18.

Shortly after his departure from Endless Endeavors, Thresk was offered a position in the Mecrosa Order and Mecrotica Conglomerate by Dominic von Black, Baron of House Black and then leader of the Mecrosa Order. Baron von Black had need for a pilot of Thresk's caliber, as well as someone with his newly developed knowledge around capital ships. On top of this, Thresk would be assigned to quell any crime that might occur within Mecrotica space. His talents learned in the Chiss Naval Academy assisted in him becoming a force to be reckoned with when combined with Mecrosa Order strike forces. Most of the jobs would involve the elimination of any drug distribution in the area not endorsed by the Mecrotica Conglomerate, minor piracy, and weapons dealing.

Baron von Black had recognized Thresk as a formidable pilot, as well as someone who could find their way around capital ships. Once the man had learned that the Chiss was also very apt at combat situations, Thresk was tasked with the responsibility of maintaining the Mecrosa space safe for business against pirates and internal threats.


Thresk's time in Mecrotica would end rather abruptly, however. He was called in to perform a strike against an illegal weapons deal occurring at a fuel depot one night. A typical raid went south when the dealers, tipped off to the raid, opened fire on the gunships led by Thresk. His PES was critically struck and crashed near a fuel container, igniting an explosion. Although Thresk would ultimately survive the incident, his arms would be beyond any healing that Xucphra could offer. The only option that Dr. Lore Matsu of Xucphra had was to replace the arms with prototype cybernetic versions. However, Thresk was incapable of acclimating to the cybernetics fast enough to be of any use to the Mecrosa Order in the short term, so his contract was terminated.
