Babylon Rogues

The Babylon Rogues, comprised of Jet, Wave, and Storm, are three Carbon Diggers from the city of Shamar on Christmas Island. They were hired by Mephiles to locate the lost facility of Babylon Garden. Although they call themselves Diggers, the Rogues are not members of the Digger's Guild and so considered thieves by the government.

Shamar
Wave's parents were researchers who served Erazor, the leader of Shamar. During an experiment in the World Ring Project, Erazor's beloved daughter Shahra was killed. In response Erazor ordered the researchers executed. A young Wave was forced to make a living in the streets.

Jet was the son of a single father, a Digger, and Storm was hired as his bodyguard in the harsh city of Shamar. Jet's father died in a cave in in the Gigan Mountains near Spagonia, and while Storm stuck with the young bird out of loyalty, eventually the funds in the bank ran dry. Wandering the city, Jet and Storm met an equally homeless Wave.

The three took to thievery for a living, earning a name for themselves in Shamar's underground circle as the Night Bandits. Jet, with some informal Digger training from his father, became the de facto leader of the group. Their missions eventually moved on from thievery to entering ruins and selling off the items they found.

Splitting Up
After fellow Shamar street rat Bean was captured by Erazor and barely escaped execution, Wave grew uneasy. Despite insistence from Jet that she stay, Wave fled Christmas Island for the tranquil quiet of Holoska on Westside Island. She set up a small engineering shop and grew to me close friends with Mozart.

Jet and Storm shaped up for a short time, Wave's exit leaving something of an impact. They joined Shamar's military under the command of General Kukku, though couldn't stand a more controlled lifestyle.

Years later, Jet and Storm would be approached by Mephiles and recruited to find an ancient treasure within the Gigan Mountains that could open the long-lost Babylon Garden. Jet readily accepted, having read all his father learned about Babylon Garden (which in truth was mostly incorrect).

Jet and Storm led an attack on General Kukku, stealing Shamar's most recent airship model and taking command. Following a short trip north and a forceful recruitment of Wave, Jet named their organization the Babylon Rogues.
