History

Virtually nothing is known about the man who would day become Dreck. His real name and the circumstances that led him to a life of crime remain unrevealed. However, as Dreck, the villain first appeared over a decade before the Rikti invasion when he helped form a violent gang called the Freakshow. Surprisingly, Dreck was largely considered the "brains" behind the criminal enterprise.

In his capacity as the group's mastermind, Dreck may have planned the crime that eventually gave the Freakshow their superhuman powers. One night, the "gang hijacked an armored truck transporting experimental drugs for Crey Industries. Never ones to shy away from trying new and potentially lethal drugs, some of the members [including Dreck] decided to try out the truck's contents on themselves."

"The drug in question was an experimental physical booster program developed for the military. The compound warped and expanded their bodies over the period of just a few hours, giving them superhuman physical attributes, incredible pain tolerance and a powerful narcotic buzz." Their newfound resilience allowed the gang members to begin experimenting with cybernetic enhancements, ranging from replacement limbs and armor to horrific weapon implants.

After many members of the Freakshow "cybered up," Dreck made a bid for control of the group. "He had to beat down two dozen other challengers to seize the position, but once he'd established supremacy Dreck finally gave the Freakshow the vision it needed to press forward.

"Dreck and the Freakshow began to preach a philosophy of rage unleashed. They tapped into feelings of impotence; particularly among young twenty-something men who had 'good jobs' that offered no hope or joy. Young men who wanted to lash out at the world because they couldn't find it within themselves to find meaning. They were looking for someone, anyone to provide that meaning and, unfortunately, a number of them turned to a man named Dreck." Under Dreck's leadership, the Freakshow has seized control of entire neighborhoods and gained access to increasingly more dangerous cyberware.
