Drake Troy's tell starts with sadness. He grew up in a small little village where everyone knew and cared for each other. With the village being located in the thick of the woods Drake developed excellent survival and hunting skills from his Father who was considered one of the village's heads. He felt at home in the wilderness and never wished to leave. Growing up he had a deep connection with nature, respecting the lives of every living creature in it. Even the animals he killed to feed his village he respected and appreciated their sacrifice. He had a good life by many standards, he married his childhood sweetheart and had a baby girl with her which he named Laura after his wife.
One day a band of orcs showed up and attacked the village without warning. The capable fighters did their best to fight the orcs, but their strength of numbers was too much and the village fell to the raiders and they celebrated their victory the way orcs always have. The next day the couple of survivors of were left to coup with the realization of what had happen and the devastation of burying their loved one. Filled with anger and revenge Drake armed himself the with his father's longbow and set out after the band. He sworn he wouldn't stop til all the orcs payed for what they've done. He began painting his arrows black to represent his heart and to send a message to the remaining orcs.
After completing his goal Drake was still very angry inside. The only relief he had was one he was on the hunt; tracking and stalking his prey. No longer having a village or family to go back to Drake became a bounty hunter and sworn to bring down those who target the weak and defenseless. Soon the stories spread of the "Hunter with Arrows of Black" and criminals who knew he was tracking them lived in fear waiting for the day he catches up to them.
Now Drake Troy has traveled to a small town called Freedom on the request from one of his old acquaintances, Erwin the druid, about the problem they're having with the local orcs. Erwin and Drake have had a few run ins in the past where they teamed up for a common goal. While not quite friends the two shared a mutual respect for each other.
