Biography: Drake'O'Hara lived not an easy life by any stretch of the imagination. Born in the wilds to his father, Atlas, and his mother, Aisling, onto a small wheat farm in the north. Drake was a happy child and life was simple. Unfortunetly, Aisling, Drakes mother died of starvation, having surrendered his well being with what little food she had left during a particularly winter when she offered it to her hungry children. Atlas, Heartbroken, struggled to raise his children alone. As Drake grew older he faced many a hardship. One being his younger brother, Timber, taking to crime in the small villages of the wilds, marauding in a group of bandits he called the Redrock Saints.
Drake grew to resent his brother and when his father passed away at the age of 51 (When Drake was 19) due to both illness and the hard life he had lead, Drake felt there was nothing left for him at the old farm and took off into the wilds with nothing buy his fathers sword, Scarline, his fathers leather cigar pack, his fathers hunting jacket and a bottle of whiskey. Drake wandered the wilds for years, along with him was his childhood friend, Ulrik. Ulrik was a smith who chose to tag along with Drake in his ventures. However, at the age of 20, Drake came across a camp of wood elves who were under attack from a group of marauders. The Redrock Saints. Drake helped the elves fight off the marauders, and even though he had to engage his own brother, he was relieved that Timber escaped. The elves, feeling grateful that the young human would go out of his way to aid them in the fight, accepted him and Ulrik into the tribe. Drake took to the tribe like fish to water, but Ulrik was not so happy, and chose to move on. Drake even found love in the elven camp. Marrying a wood elf named Kayla. They were madly in love, but one day, against all odds, Drake discovered that Kayla was pregnant, and in a moment of panic, he cut and ran. Drake travelled the land for a long time. Always ashamed of what he had done, but always too scared to return. Drake, at the age of 36, arrived in Ursakar, a barony under the control of the Guivrets in the Duchy of Auvergne.
By this time Drake was dirt poor, starving, and very sick from the weather around him. The Duchess of Auvergne, Helaine Guivret (You know him as STEALTHNINJAAP, thats right) saw this and took Drake in, giving him a job as a miner and putting a roof over his head. Now, with somewhere to live, Drake began to feel confident about his position and as the Duchy grew, Drake decided to offer his fathers sword in service to the Guivrets. Until Drake was 43 he served as a bannerman in the guivret corps, having seen combat in places such as the battle of Kal'Alras. At that age he was granted the position of Knight as a reward for his loyal service to the duchy. But, when Drake was 44, many of the Guivrets were killed in a raid, Including the Duke himself (Lugarthecougar) and much of his family, and Drake was devistated. So much so that he layed down his sword as a knight of the Guivrets, as all of his friends had left or died. Even the adopted Guivret child, Seria Aran, who Drake had personally guarded since she was 16, left with her husband, and Drake was left friendless once again. Drake still lives, and still seeks out some of his friends who disappeared from the Duchy during his time in service.
