- "I hate blood. It sets my teeth on edge."
- ―One of Dralin's many neuroses
Dralin Hakh'khar is an assassin of House Gladius. Beginning as a simple inductee to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, he has caught the attention of two Quaestors for apprenticeship, became a Tetrarch, was promoted to Aedile, and is now a freelance member of House Gladius on the verge of Knighthood.
Biography
- "Looking back, we were quite lucky."
- ―Dralin Hakh'khar
Origins
Dralin's parents were wealthy business owners who moved to the burgeoning city at the foot of Mount Tantiss at a young age together. Shortly before the city's destruction during the events surrounding Grand Admiral Thrawn's plot to destroy the Republic, Dralin's parents moved off-planet, not wanting to be present during all the commotion while Dralin's mother was pregnant. Soon after New Nystao was established by the displaced Noghri as the new capital of Wayland, Dralin's parents moved back in time for Dralin, and his twin Dreav, to be born there.
Growing up, Dralin and his sister, Dreav, often mingled with the Noghri, and soon grew more fond of the compact Noghri than their fellow Humans. He grew to accept Noghri culture, along with their ideas in honor, friendship, and family. The twins would often spend their entire day with the Noghri children, also taking time out to speak with the Dynasts of the Noghri clans on many different matters, such as politics, philosophy, and literature, much to the Dynasts' delight.
At the age of twelve, however, disaster would strike, forever marring Dralin's life. One night he awoke with a great sense of alarm, getting out of bed just in time to hear his sister scream. After sprinting down the hallway, he caught a glimpse of someone jumping out the window, Dreav laying in a pool of blood in her bed. Dralin's parents arrived to find him cradling his twin sister's head in his arms, silent tears running down his cheeks.
Teenage Life

Ever since the night of his sister's murder, Dralin withdrew, growing darker in his grief. The other residents of New Nystao offered their condolences to the grieving family, but nothing could replace the hollow void in Dralin's life, the bond that he always felt with his twin- or so he thought. As he got older, Dralin noticed certain impulses guiding him, telling him what to do, whispers at his consciousness that gave him information that would be otherwise unobtainable. This information was sometimes as useful as the location of something he was looking for, but more often than not, it offered glimpses into others' lives, their very thoughts betraying them to Dralin. The more Dralin listened to the voice, the more it told him- he knew that his neighbor was being cuckolded; he knew that the mayor of New Nystao had a bit of a spice problem; he knew the dark secrets others didn't want to get out.
By the age of fifteen, Dralin came to recognize the voice as his sister's, possibly speaking to him from beyond death, or perhaps Dreav never left him. His sister told him many things, sometimes prodding him to a certain course of action, sometimes leading him to discover information to be used to his advantage. It was never spelled out to him, no, he had to track down the information himself, but his sister was like a beacon, leading him down what appeared to be an obvious path.
Arrival at Sword's Sheath

Dralin was sent to the Sword's Sheath, House Gladius' home in the Itaana Belt. He learned much there, and enjoyed the freedom he had to learn about the Force and exercise both his body and his will. Soon, he attracted the attention of at-the-time-Quaestor Kromtal Stormfyld. Master Stormfyld taught him the value of initiative, answering questions his apprentice had. Soon, Dralin's Envoy, Telona Murrage, commandeered him and took him, along with fellow Journeyman Bieten Macht Elols, in what was supposed to be a routine flight. After crash-landing on the surface of Koros, Dralin and Elols followed Telona into the Cestus Complex, surviving the nightmare scenario until help arrived.
Soon after, Master Stormfyld passed Dralin's apprenticeship on to Telona, who had the time to devote to his training. It was then that Dralin was made the Archivist of Battle Team Praxeum, only to gain the position of Tetrarch shortly thereafter.

Telona's Apprentice
Dralin's apprenticeship to Telona Murrage would prove to be both the most difficult thing he would encounter so far, as well as the most rewarding. Telona by no means went easy on Dralin, who would have to prove himself at every turn. Under Telona, he learned the art of Close Quarters Battle with it's myriad ways of killing someone with a small blade, the true value of independent thought, and the proper use of his physical Force powers. One thing that would plague him, however, was his inability to control his Force senses. While Dralin grew to have reasonable ability in being able to affect the world around him with the Force, whenever he tried to actively sense his surroundings he would draw blanks. His Force senses would be out of reach when he tried for them, and other times they would flood his senses with unasked for information, especially in his sleep.
During this time, Dralin also reorganized the battleteam Praxeum into Arcano Signum, as the members felt that they were no longer a training institution for new members and needed a change.
