==History==
Zellbrigen Stables was formed in [[3062]]<ref name=RS3055U/> by disgruntled [[Clan Jade Falcon]] warriors from their embassy based in the [[Cathay]] section of [[Solaris City]]. Several of these warriors challenged a number of Solaris contenders to publicized duels to vent their frustrations of being stationed on Solaris VII. The Falcons disdained the glamorization of dueling and wanted to prove their superiority over mere "showmen" like the warriors of Solaris. Zellbrigen Stables' victories in these matches reaped the stable fame and respect. However, the stable's members were unable to handle the glamorous lifestyle that comes with fighting on Solaris, and even worse, they could not adapt to the less-glamorous deal-making side of the business. The stable was on the brink of collapse after its first matches until [[Marcin Hammond]], a [[Bloodname]]d warrior from [[Clan Diamond Shark]] who had since retired and joined the [[Merchant Caste]], stepped in and took over the "management" of the stables.

Since taking over the administration side of Zellbrigen Stables' operations, Hammond stabilized its situation and allowed it to prosper. Since then, warriors from various Clans have appeared in matches under the Zellbrigen Stables banner.
