Fredo Butler [ 219 BG - 205 BG] was the twin brother of Octa Butler and the son of Manion and Livia Butler. A gifted musician, he expected to become a musician. At the age of fourteen, honey-voiced Fredo faced a genetically based blood disease, his skin splotched with purplish discolorations. For months, he'd grown thinner and thinner, his muscles atrophying. His blood would not clot, and he could not keep even the thinnest of broths in his stomach. The Salusan doctors had never seen anything like it.
