The Drayen dynasty, initially established on the planet of Dubrillion, consisted of many generations of war heroes, royalty, and lawbreakers. Their reign concluded a number of years prior to the Cold War, when an unknown person seized power and forced King Arak Drayen III off Dubrillion. However, Arak successfully fled with the Dubrillion Crown, concealing it on a ship within the Long Shadow. His grandson, Nok Drayen, rose to prominence as a notorious crime boss, secretly driven by a desire for the Drayens to reclaim their rightful place. Following Nok's death from a condition brought on by a disloyal subordinate, his only child, Risha, was left as the only remaining descendant of the Drayen lineage.
