silvergoldengunFar away in a distant galaxy, there was an ice blue planet.
It consisted of ice and rock, and was called Silk Mint. If a normal person came to visit, they'd find it hard to breathe, because the cold kills the nature, and anything had trouble surviving there, due to the low amount of oxygen. The population grew slowly, and it takes three times longer for the Silks and Mints to age, than it does for humans.
It was a planet where strength plays the most important role, because they're hunters. The amount of fur they have indicate the power of the races' natural abilities. Still, the planet is peaceful in its own sense.
The royal family was called Silks, and the rest of the population Mints. The line of succession is decided by strength, and the amount of fur indicates it.
The seventh son - Basco - was considered the weakest, due to his little amount of fur - less than a commoner - and his preference for thinking before acting. His mother refused to acknowledge him, and didn't want him anywhere close to his little sister, who was considered the strongest as well as the first in line. Instead, she gave him to her sister, and because weakness was considered contanious he was punished each time he got close to her.
The only ones who were nice to him was his aunt, and his oldest brother. His other siblings ignored or bullied him, his parents resented him and his younger sister didn't even know he existed.
As time passed, he studied strategy, history, anything about other planets and galaxies. He learnt how to handle a blade from his aunt, and got quite good at it; good enough to be on par with his oldest brother.
When Basco was 32, the Zangyack Empire invaded.
The year the Zangyack appeared, his aunt died, and he lived alone in her place. He grew to dislike big empty spaces during those years.
During the years of the invasions, the oldest daughter and the second son was killed in battle. Basco saw his oldest brother murdered by his third oldest brother, but no one believed him no matter what he said. After the king and queen died, the third son took the throne, since the youngest child was still too young for ruling a planet.
When he was 42, the Zangyack and the current king made an agreement for peace, and as a proof of the Silk Mint's loyalty to the Zangyack, they were given Basco. He accepts being kept as a hostage for the sake of his younger sister, who he still likes even though he doesn't know her.
When he found out that his planet had been destroyed - 24 years ago and 3 years after he came to Zangyack - he betrayed Zangyack and saved Marvelous from execution.

Since he always liked cooking, he experimented a lot in the kitchen on the Zangyack ship that he was at, and he became an expert at handling spices and exotic ingredients. After all, they mostly ate meat - raw or grilled - on his home planet. He always hid off in the kitchen since he was disliked by the Zangyack soldiers and they didn't have any instructions on how he was to be treated, so they treated him just how they felt like. He mostly wore his humanoid form, because he had been taught to be ashamed of his weak - to his race - armored form.
In a brawl, he stole a gun from a soldier and at the time, a general Damaras had been around and seen the fight. Damaras noted he had talent, since he had never held a gun before, and decided to teach him. Basco had to climb the ranks under much more prejudice than the normal soldiers, and he was sent on infiltration missions.
He took the name "ta Jolokia" just prior his first mission, and he managed to quickly infiltrate and crush places as he was ordered to, during the years that passed. When he was 58, he was sent to infiltrate the Akaki Pirates because AkaRed caused trouble for Zangyack. He didn't like AkaRed and he disliked the fact that he hid his face behind a mask all the time. But he did like to cook for someone who appreciated his food.
A while later, they picked up Marvelous, and during his stay, he learnt about the Ultimate Treasure, and found out that a wish could be granted if you just gathered the treasure. He decided that besides crushing the Akaki Pirates, he was going to get the treasure so he could change his past and stop Zangyack from destroying his planet. He just didn't expect to actually like Marvelous.
