Ironside[1][src]

History

Ironside was a member of the Birds of Prey, a team of outlaw heroes operating on the planet D'Vor, where they were taken following their abduction from their home planets. Though the Imperial High Council of D'Vor had a long history of enslaving the people of neighboring worlds, the Birds of Prey rebelled, refusing to serve the council and dedicating their lives to help others resist the tyranny of the D'Vorans.[2][3]

In 1992, Ironside and the Birds helped a group of humans who were being assaulted by the D'Voran task force called The Factor, composed by Knockdown, Reign and Trek.[4] Not wanting to fight the Birds of Prey in their territory, The Factor fled. Battlestone, the leader of the humans, was reluctant to trust the Birds, and Ironside aggressively antagonized him by stating if the Birds wanted to fight them, Ironside could beat them by himself. Regardless, Battlestone was convinced to give the Birds a try by his second-in-command.[5]

A few days later, both teams were found by the Imperial High Guard, who led them towards the Citadel. The Birds cleared a path for the humans, but Ironside stayed behind, too engrossed with the battle and enjoying every minute of it. Ironside was absent when the Birds and the humans defeated the D'Voran Prince and the humans left on a ship for their home planet.[6]

Notes

Brigade Sourcebook #1 gives the name Ironside to the unnamed Bird of Prey member, and skips this character altogether. However, Brigade #4's actual dialogue identifies this character as Ironside.
