==History==
{{Spoiler|source=Space Marine (Novel)}}
===Early Life===
D'Arquebus was born on the [[Hive World]] of [[Necromunda (planet)|Necromunda]] in [[Hive Trazior]]. D'Arquebus came from a comparatively wealthy family: [[D'Arquebus Senior|his father]] served as ''Calculator Maximus'' to [[Spinoza|Lord Spinoza]] - a clan leader whose family owned many factories in the lower habs. Lexandro was a member of a [[Brat Gang]] called the [[Lordly Phantasms]], a group of upper-hab youths who delighted in using their exotic weapons and equipment to terrorise lower-hab gangs.{{Fn|1a}}
===Recruitment===
At the age of fourteen, after his father's "financial irregularities" had toppled his family from their favoured position, d'Arquebus applied to join the [[PDFPlanetary Defence Forces]] with the further hope of possibly being transferred to the [[Imperial Guard]].{{Fn|1a}}
Unknown to d'Arquebus, these interviews were being observed by [[Space Marine Sergeant|Sergeant]] [[Huzzi Rork]] — a recruiter for the Imperial Fists. Rork took an interest in d'Arquebus and ordered further test to measure his physical, mental and psychic capabilities. Following this, Rork offered d'Arquebus the opportunity to attempt join the Imperial Fists. D'Arquebus, along with fellow Trazior-hivers [[Biff Tundrish]] and [[Yeremi Valence]], was then transported from his homeworld to the Imperial Fists' mobile [[Fortress Monastery]], the ''[[Phalanx]]''.{{Fn|1b}}
