About Drahkn

Background:

Drahkn knew early on he was special. He was raised to understand that he was a once-in-a-century talent, heir to not just one but two draconic traditions. He grew rapidly, in both mind and body. He learned the basics of spellcasting, and how to scratch and claw and fight with his tail. But above all he learned of the majestic fury of Dahak, the Sorrowmaker, the Endless Destruction, and to hate metallic dragons and their allies with every scale of his body. Once he came of age, he departed his tribe for the Worldwound, knowing that many good dragons and their human thralls went there to fight in their misguided crusades. So he would go there to hunt them. He infiltrated the city of Kenabres, keeping to the shadows and back-alleys. He was not so foolish as to walk boldly down main thoroughfares, no. Instead he struck from the shadows, ambushing a silver half-dragon paladin in Apsu's livery. But he overestimated his abilities, to confident in his own great destiny. He and the paladin beat each other bloody, but he was overcome and thrown into chains in prison. He exulted in the taste and feel of the paladin's blood on his face, but ow laments his fate, and hopes to escape and wreak further havoc, and this time actually kill some of Apsu's followers. Maybe even a true dragon one day.

Appearance & Personality:

Drahkn has deep crimson scales that seem to 'shine' black, as well as black horns and claws and teeth. While he is of no particular height or build, his presence is nonetheless commanding.

He lives, above all, to kill metallic dragons and their human followers. He will happily kill anyone else who gets in his way, and is glad to participate in the Endless Destruction's work however he is able, but his life's goal is the death of metallic-blooded sorcerers and half-dragons and other such mongrel ilk, as well as Apsu's paladins, clerics, and followers (not to mention metallic dragons themselves, which he realizes he is not yet ready to face, though he hopes to be one day).

4. What additional attributes would be noticed upon meeting the character (i.e. Speech, mannerisms)?
He has a commanding, imperious manner. Despite his youth, he was accorded great respect and honor in his tribe and is used to being shown deference, and tends take anything else as a challenge.

5. Where was your character born? Where were you raised? By who?
He was born and raised in a kobold warren in Belkzen. Kobolds are raised communally (at least in his tribe) so most of the tribe had a hand in it.

6. Who are your parents? Are they alive? What do they do for a living?
He doesn't really know, given the communal approach of kobold child-rearing. But he believes that his mother was a powerful sorceress and his father a great warrior. He does not know if they yet live.

7. Do you have any other family or friends?
His tribe are all like family, but they are far away.

8. What is your character’s marital status? Kids?
He fertilized some eggs before he left the tribe, but does not know if they hatched.

9. What is your character’s alignment?
Chaotic Evil, of course. He is a true and loyal servant of Dahak.

10. What is your character’s moral code?
(Cribbed largely from Dahak's Antipaladin code in Inner Sea Faiths)
I am an instrument of destruction, a claw of the Sorrowmaker.
My wrath is ceaseless, as his destruction is endless.
I alone, at Dahak's direction, decide whence my wrath is focused.
I will show no lenience to metallic dragons, servants of Apsu, or the minions of either.
Forgiveness is for the weak.

Yes. To kill metallic dragons, their servants, and followers of Apsu wherever he finds them.

12. Is your character religious?
Yes. He is a devoted follower of Dahak, the Endless Destruction.

13. What are your character’s personal beliefs?
That all will perish in Dahak's fire, bcause all deserv to burn. But those who submit willingly will have a place of honor at his side, until it is their turn to burn.

14. Does your character have any personality quirks (i.e. anti-social, arrogant, optimistic, paranoid)?
He is definitely arrogant, and sort of cheerfully pessimistic (All of creation will burn, and it will be glorious!). He was something like nobility in his tribe, and expects deference.

15. Why does your character adventure?
To kill metallic, their servants, and Apsu's followers and allies.

16. How does your character view his/her role as an adventurer?
It's exciting and fun.

His coloration is significantly more vibrant than that of most kobolds.

18. How does your character get along with others?
Fine, as long as they don't get in his way. He's happy to ally, at least for the moment, with those whose goals align with his, eeven if only temporarily.

19. Is there anything that your character hates?
Apsu and Metallic dragons, mostly.

20. Is there anything that your character fears?
Apsu and metallic dragons, at least until he gains the power to destroy them.
