History:Wrex was born on the Krogan homeworld, Tuchanka. around 1400 years before Humanity made first contact with an Alien species, When the krogan rebellions were ending.
Born into clan Urdnot, Wrex quickly gained fame for his prowess in battle. He became a leader of one of the smaller Urdnot tribes while still a youth - the youngest krogan to be granted the honor in 1000 years.
After the Krogan Rebellions ended, most remaining krogan tribes wanted to continue fighting despite the genophage and its devastating effect on their ability to reproduce. The most influential voice calling for a return to arms was one of the few warlords to survive the war, Wrex's father Jarrod.
Wrex had different ideas. He believed that the krogan didn't have the numbers to go to war, and even if they did the genophage ensured they couldn't replenish their numbers quickly enough. Instead of battle, he led his tribe to focus on breeding, for at least one generation, and called for other tribes to follow. Gradually other krogan tribes began to come around to Wrex's ideas. This angered the Warlord Jarrod, who decided to arrange a Crush (a meeting on neutral ground) with all of the tribes. Wrex, sensing it was a trap, reluctantly agreed.
Wrex and his best warriors met with Jarrod's group in the krogan ancestral burial grounds called the Hollows, a holy place among the krogan where violence is forbidden. When it became clear to Jarrod that Wrex wouldn't agree with him, he signaled his men. They leapt from their hiding places and ambushed Wrex's warriors, cutting them down. Wrex managed to escape the ambush, but not before sinking his knife deep into Jarrod's chest. With his father's betrayal Wrex's eyes were opened to the truth about the krogan: most would rather die in battle than try to rebuild their society. Realizing the proud warrior culture that once valued courage, strength, and honor, had now been reduced to glorifying pointless violence, Wrex turned his back on the rest of the krogan and left.
Over the past three centuries he has served no master but himself, working as a bodyguard, mercenary, soldier of fortune, and bounty hunter.
After his many travels there is little in the galaxy that can still surprise him. Despite his brutish appearance, Wrex rarely loses his temper. The mere threat of his anger is usually enough to get what he wants. When his fury is unleashed, however, it is a truly terrifying sight. He doesn't speak often, but when he does his words are direct and often shockingly blunt - and people tend to listen.
Sample Role Play Post: The massive Krogan lumbered into the bar on Omega station, Wrex sat on one of the reinforced stools at the bar, He beckoned for the Batarian bartender to pour him a drink.
"We don't like your kind in here, Krogan." The bartender scowled, looking down at the glass he was polishing. Wrex rumbled with unfriendly laughter.
"I don't like your kind, Batarian. Let's compromise, get me a drink." Wrex growled. The bartender beckoned for a pair of burly Batarian bouncers to flank Wrex.
"Look, Krogan, I'm giving you one chance to walk out of here, then you're crawling out." The bartender said. Wrex smiled, showing his huge, rotten teeth.
"I don't intend to get that drunk." He joked. One bouncer struggled to pull Wrex of his chair. Wrex stood and gave the batarian a right hook, knocking him to the floor. He charged up his biotics and threw the other to the floor, hard. Wrex pulled the shotgun from it's slot on his back.
"Now" He asked the terrified barkeep "How about that drink?"
