New Caledonia and the tradition of Blades:
The discovery of Magic and the Hexing led to the proliferation of magical creatures throughout Earth and her colonies. In New Caledonia, the conglomerate nation comprising of the Old Earth nations of Scotland and Ireland, this has led to a vast and dangerous giant population. As these creatures proliferated methods were devised for dealing them, the mana-soaked skin of the creatures making them immune to all but the most powerful magic based weaponry. They are most effectively killed by mundane or technological weaponry. To this end the Clans of Briar and McKenzie developed the use of ancient blade weaponry that could tear through the hide of Giants and maintain the martial traditions of the people of New Caledonia. Eventually these inventions were streamlined into Vibro-blades, swords that kept the appearance of ancient blade weapons while keeping the pure stopping power of the new technological age.

Briar:
A life in Clan Briar led to knowledge of these weapons, and a swathe of experience fighting against the magical beasts of New Caledonia. But eventually this was not enough, taking only his family name "Briar" set out to explore the cosmos. He enlisted in the Foundation Defence Force and travelled the Foundation Worlds killing the enemies of humanity, both magical and mundane. Eventually however for a highborn of Earth the low pay and lack of respect got the better of him, and he moved into the private sector. There is always work for those willing to take a life, let alone those who excel at doing so. Mercenary work payed the bills, until eventually Briar had enough money to put a payment down for a ship, and along with his new crew he now travels the 'verse seeking adventure and coin.
