| - Ducar Gaton was born Drexar Kurs'ade to Mandalorians Zerga and Ailee. It was a remote outpost on the planet Myrkr, comprised of a renegade clan of true Mandalorians that refused to follow the antics of self-proclaimed Mandalores. Instead, they chose a simpler life; one that sought to bring honour and prosperity to their people, rather than death and destruction. While the Mando-Republic Alliance, established by his father, had been designed to protect their trade routes within the Inner Rim Territories, the unlikely coalition spawned a confrontation with local factions. Though the Republic had promised increased security to the region, when the altercations escalated, they failed to commit substantial support. The strike was sudden. A task force of elite Ubese mercenaries had penetrated the Mandalorian defences and mounted a surprise attack on the surface. The battle was short and the consequences, for the outpost, were severe. Within two days, the entire Mandalorian clan was defeated, and exterminated. However, two known members survived. Deep in the forest of Myrkr, Drexar and his father witnessed the attack from afar. Enraged, Zerga prepared himself for a violent infiltration. However, given the circumstances, his revenge was impossible. Paranoid about the overwhelming presence of bacteria on the planet, the Ubese chose not to remain on the surface for long. Obsessed with his honour, Zerga abandoned his son to pursue the Ubese off-world. Three years later, at age eleven, it was apparent that Drexar had adapted to the wilderness, alone, and had done so quickly. Those years were unexplainable. With each passing day he became attuned to nature and its cycles. He was, for that time, as animalistic and wild as the creatures around him. However, this feral existence would not last a lifetime.
