Backround
Dread (known as model 9 at the time) was created by a lone Qwe'tsni scientist in the depths of a long forgotten cave system to hide him from the religious authorities. He functions using a system of silicon and redstone and was given a soul and consciousness by the ancient sorcerers. The scientist treated Dread like a son, and loved them very much. She made sure to teach them values of science and freedom so they could dream of a better world than she could. in time, however, the scientist was caught, and she blew up her lab, trapping Dread beneath layers of rubble. Thousands of years later, Repollo - a farmer residing in the town of Gallano - found the lab and Dread's body on a routine mining trip. Dread was heavily damaged, and their right hand was completely destroyed. After being pulled up to the surface, Dread managed to use some extra iron and redstone to make a makeshift hand, and started his journey of spreading his values of science and democracy to all of Valore. He later moved his home to Solhom.

Valoran political career
Soon after joining the nation, Dread ran for speaker, and completely failed by an astounding margin. However, his party (The Valoran Progressive Party) still existed and had its headquaters in the city of Solhom.

Fall of Valore
After the takeover of Valore by Aegeus and the merger with the Verillion Imperium, Dread fled the country fearing political persecution, leaving everything they built in Valore behind. They moved across the sea to Qadakh with their friends Nimrond and Repollo, where they helped them build up the new city of Ar'Kath. While Qadakh was a monarchy, which was against Dread's values, he was tired and Fling, the Satrap, was welcoming and kind.
