Drazhak has known only toil and his faith. Born and raised in the Sky citadel of Janderhoff, he spent his early years as an adventurous youth. Facinated by ancient civilisations and mystery, he frequently wnet off alone or with a small group of friends to see the Crystalrock and other wonders.
This wanderlust began Drazhak's early career as an adventurer. The fateful day came when his father was tasked to journey to Magnimar to speak to the Pathfinders there about a matter of great importance. He was to deliver to them a scrap of ancient parchment. He decided to take Drazhak with him to show him the world. Disaster struck in the Fenwall Mountains where the party was ambusehd by Orcs and scattered or killed.
Drazhak found himself alone and unarmed in the monster infested mountains. He could not return to Janderhoff without completing hs father's taks: to do so would be to dishonour his family. Drazhak resolved to completing his father's mission. Desperate and alone, he prayed to Abadar to help him reach his goal. Abadar answered his call and with new found faith Drazhak went forth to whatever fate may bring.
Through great toil and strife, did he complete this task - though it took him long and long to escape the Mountains. He completed his father'smission and delivered the parchment to the pathfinders, then returned to Janderhoff to take a place in the Temple of Abadar. He remained there for several years, studying the mysteries when a rival family to his unleashed a foul and underhand plot which resulted in the banishment of his remaining family members. Drazhak was disgraced and given a choice by the leader of his order - to renounce his faith or leave the Temple and Janderhoff only to return when his family honour had been restored.
Without hesitation, he collected his gear and left; jounreying to Magnimar he signed up to the pathfinders in order to bring glory and honour to his household.
