When Wex's family was killed by the DA's dynasty and he believed himself to be the only survivor, the teenaged lizard found himself full of hatred and anger, and it was this that led to him eventually becoming a highly successful and surviving captain in the pirate faction, The Jewelled Fangs. Yet Wex did not start his journal well, like his surviving sister (Whom he does not know is alive) Elise, his early days after the civil war were not kind to him.

His survival of the war was not a slick as Elise's, Wex saw people die, he watched his only two friends from his school get shot in the head by Dynasty soldiers and witnessed enough that day to fill a lifetime with grief. He escaped by the skin of his teeth on a carrier craft, which took him to some Orion suburbs. His first nights alone were spent similarly to his sisters, shocked and speechless at what had happened, but in sadness he found anger and hatred. He felt like the world had betrayed him, what was the point in trying to be a good person when you can lose your whole family and everyone you love so quickly due to someone elses hatred? His life of crime begun a week later, starting off small, just stealing things to survive, but as his skills developed, he began to make profits, stealing more and more expensive items to begin building his finances, for no other reason than "Why shouldn't i?". His bitterness fuelled his spite for others and for months, he terrorised the area, stealing and taking whatever he wanted, sometimes just destroying objects precious to others for the hell of it. Perhaps he wouldn't have amounted to anything at all if it wasn't for a particular person...

During one of his heists into one of the more wealthy Orion towers, upon trying to gain entry on the roof, he was interrupted by a girl, a young free-runner by the name of Jessica, who was a athletic viper, was star gazing on the roof and happened to spot Wex climbing up. She interrupted him mid way through picking the lock and introduced herself to the male, who was somewhat taken back by her beauty. Jessica was one of the sweeter and more chilled out people you could meet in life, she was kind without being a push over, stern when required by very caring at the same time. She took an interest in Wex, as he did with her and he spent the night talking to her on the skyscraper roof instead. 

Jessica didn't have a home or a family, everything she had, she's found. She'd been living homeless since she was a child, her parents killed by an intruder in her home causing her to run away in terror. With no formal education or paperwork, Jessica was unemployable to most proper jobs and had slipped through the cracks of Orion social services due to her being so damn good at running. She scavenged and stole minor food items to get by, surviving on little for years. Over her years, she became an excellent escape artist and freerunner, capable of climbing pretty much anything and getting anywhere, she'd escaped from holding cells multiple times and had even escaped the clutches of a slave trader, but Jessica was still a lonely soul. She'd never had a boyfriend nor any proper friends at all since her parents unfortunate demise, people didn't tend to take kindly to her. To others, she was just a smelly, annoying, pesky little thief who wouldn't stop stealing the sausage rolls or bread buns, little did they know she was completely homeless and that was her food for the week. The years went by and Jessica began to seek challange in order to prove that she was capable of doing something... she gathered what she could and made herself a little hut on the tallest Orion building in the whole city as prove to herself that she wasn't worthless. Climbing the externals of the 600m tall building to go to bed wasn't exactly fun all the time, but the view more than made up for it. Her "home" was nothing more than a shoddy, windy little shack, made of cardboard and newspaper, with a bunch of damaged and dirty pillows on the floor for a bed and some coats on top for a blanket.

Wex left the roof several hours later, having heard a lot of Jess and shared a little himself, the two were a young couple in the making but it wouldn't happen until several weeks later. Wex came back to the rooftop every couple of days, bringing food, clothes and whatever else he could lug up the building for her. Each time he'd bring a little more, they began spending the day time together, going on adventures across the city scape, free running from the police and making daring escapes through the sewers and alleys. The two grew incredible close in very little time, Jessica's kinder more caring attitude bringing Wex back into a healthy state of mind and Wex's sharper attitude giving Jessica a little more bite to her bark. They helped balanced and repair each-others personalities but stayed on the criminal side of life. One particular night, after getting a little drunk together on stolen wine and somehow managing to make it back to Jess's little shack, the two of them found themselves making love under the beautiful open night sky, both of them letting their restrained feelings for one another loose in a hot night of passion. That night the two of them became a couple, making both of them infinitely happier.

The next years of Wex's life were spent living with Jessica in her teeny hut on top of that very skyscraper, finding happiness in Jess's embrace, despite the homelessness. But the lizard wanted more for his love and began his theft escapades again, something which had stopped when he met Jessica. She didn't like him stealing expensive things for profit and made him stop when they first met, but he didn't want them to stay cold and wet on top of the skyscraper, he wanted them to live in it, he wanted them to own it. He made her a promise that one day they'd own the whole thing, and they'd get to live on the top floor, rather than the roof... He kept his thievery a secret from her but it didn't last long, Jess was too sharp and smart to not notice. It drove a wedge between them, Jess was insistent that he should not be stealing and took a stance. Either you stop stealing or you lose me. Wex was divided, one the one hand, he loved Jess but he didn't want to see her homeless and living in the cold, even if it was together. He was also still angry about his past, having not quite come to terms yet with what had happened, not that he'd even told Jess about the war... he was taking his anger out on the world and didn't plan to stop soon... Jess did not like the fact that he struggled with the decision, she took it the wrong way and felt completely heartbroken, asking the male to leave for the night and let her think. Her intention was just for a single night, so they could have a little space, but Wex took her the wrong way himself, feeling utterly destroyed by her words, he left without saying a word, disappearing off down the building and into the night. They would never see each-other again. Wex left the planet that night, the offer of a lifetime appeared and in his damaged state of mind, he took it. A recruiter for the space pirate faction, the Jewelled Fangs was in town for a single night... and with brief hesitation, he took the offer. From there, his skill only grew, in order to take his mind off the pain he felt from losing Jessica, he training and worked relentlessly, becoming skilled in firearms and engineering, his natural strength, skill and cunning made him a damn good pirate and it took him only a few years to become a captain of his very own ship. Ever since, he's been cruising the universe, going on crazy adventures with his crew in search of plunder, babes and fame. His time in the Jewelled Fangs has matured him greatly and developed him, he's learnt and moved on from past events a stronger person.

Wex may have left behind Jessica heartbroken, but he has never forgotten her, just like Diego, Wex never breaks a promise. He still has the Orion planets co-ordinates marked, and one day, when he has the money, he plans buy Jessica that tower. His only hope is that she's still alive and around there when he does...

Wex is an outgoing and charismatic person who always had something witty to say, he's inspiring and beautifully cocky, adored by his crew and admired by other captains, he is definitely one of the more successful pirates. His striking ruby eyes and black locks with a golden edging give him a gorgeous appearance, his ears are slightly larger than his brothers or sisters and help define his look from them, along with his defined and toned body, he's considered to be one of the most attractive pirates in the whole faction. He's slick, charming and enchanting to speak to. He loves being the center of attention and strives to impress others, usually to great success. His time aboard the station and the ship has only benefited him and them greatly, his arrival there uplifted the faction greatly, turning them from sleazy star sailors to semi-famous and admired cosmos plunderers. In his quieter moments, he's a figure of wisdom and friendship, Wex is a brilliant friend to have at your side as he shares Diego's passion for his friends. He's a sucker for busty girls and pretty jewels though, and when he spots something he likes, he can be quite insistent on getting his hands on it.
