Zara Skye was born in an Orlock gang, but always dreamed of becoming a journalist. She studied hard and got accepted into the Hive Primus Academy of Journalism, a prestigious school in the hive city. She graduated with honors and joined the Hive City Times, a renowned newspaper that covers news from all over Necromunda. She was a young and ambitious reporter who hoped to make a name for herself in the journalism world. However, she soon realized that the Hive City Times was controlled by the hive nobility and corporations, and that she had to follow their agenda and censor her stories.

She became disillusioned and frustrated with her job and longed for more freedom and honesty. She decided to create her own newspaper, The Drake Chronicle, with ex enforcer Lena Frost, to be the voice of the Underhive. She gathered a team of talented and passionate journalists who shared her vision and courage. She became the co-editor of The Drake Chronicle and led it with creativity and enthusiasm. She hoped to make The Drake Chronicle the best newspaper in the Underhive, and to find her true voice and purpose as a journalist.
