Description

Drakus is taller then most men. His coal black hair settles on his head. His face is handsome with very defined features. His nose is the best shape for his face. His eyes are a normal size, though they are a dark colour indeed. He always seems content. His muscular form comes from years of training with his weapons. He is a dextrous man, who sacrifices some of his potential strength for speed. His left hand is gnarled and clawed, even possible to be used as a weapon. It is slightly, but clearl, larger then his right and he wears a white glove to hide it.

Drakus wears a long white sleeve shirt and black button up vest (with gold buttons). He has black pants and shoes. Presently he has a sword and black gauntlet hanging from his belt and is confined to a wheelchair.

Essentially

Personality

Drakus is not a kind person to strangers, generally. The times he does show charm or grace are usually when he wants something. Confusion and anger rarely come to his face, which shows the severity of a situation in which he becomes visibly enraged. He often will go to great lengths in an act of deception and will continue a deception for as long as he believes he has control.

Drakus has somewhat a taste in company and has considers good company more valuable then the average person. His sometimes wreckless behaviour leads to true trouble as he seeks power and control. Amongst his vices are women in trouble (that he didn't cause), guilt and friendship. His false sense of nobility that he was brought up with oft demands he defend women. His guilt for his actions slows his progress to greatness. Those he considers friends he would fight for, endangering himself if need be out of a misguided sense of loyalty and comradeship.

He knows a good sword, but truly excels in research, absorbing any little piece of information he is dropped. While he fails to understand much of technology, he has a decent grasp on science and maths, though he often has a limited understanding of it's potential.

He pushes hard when there is something he wants, whether it is a skill to learn, a person to manipulate or an object to acquire. Failure is often not an option. He innately does not like vampires as something about biting and blood drinking makes him uncomfortable.

Equipment

Cane
A black ivory cane, which is probably also a sword, knowing Drakus, but presently he is injured and requires it.

Magic
Drakus control of magic extends to that of blue magic, mostly in the fields of frost and ice, but at times he can use water and mental magics. They allow him a wide array of versatility and adaption in combat to opponents who may be faster or stronger.

Shapeshifting
Drakus is capable of shapeshifting into primarily a wolf, but also other creatures when he wears his black metal gauntlet due to an acquired power. This is very rare as he is not familiar with such creatures. It is mostly used as a desperation surprise tactic in combat.[/size]

History

Drakus was brought up on a rich estate and felt the backhand of his drunken father many times, sometimes for bad behaviour, sometimes for no reason at all. He and his elder brother were originally close as they were forced into through the same things as each other. They were sent to fight in war along with his brother. During one such battle he was captured defending his brother and his life was spared thanks to one orc. He joined the opposing forces and continued to fight until he met his brother on the battlefield. The two fought long after the battle was over until neither could continue.

Drakus returned home without any trust in his brother, as he felt it was his brothers fault for his capture and for not trying to rescue him.

His father was first.

One night when he father was sleeping after a drunken rage he crept into the room with a knife in hand and slashed his fathers throat. His brother came the next summer when they were at a lake. He lured his brother there, then stabbed him and pushed him into the lake. When he was sure his brother was dead he ran to get help.

As he delved into a darker life he discovered a book in the small library that the family still held. The book contained the details of a corrupt magic fountain which supposedly had started the family lineage and was hidden deep in the mountains. Drakus left, leaving his mother alone at the house. In that mountain he uncovered the secrets of the foul magic and gained his sword Soulshiver. When he returned home his mother had passed. With no more attachments to his previous life Drakus began his work.

He acquired new powers as he has spreads The Corruption. The Corruption spoke to him, guiding him in his life. Drakus often handled most of his emotions like his father, drowning them in alcohol. He only cares for two people, the orc who saved his life and his wife.

He lost the Corruption, leaving him without magic, but he is learning to deal with it. When researching his family tree he discovered, much to his disappointment, no attachment to nobility and a cousin of his, Leroy Goodwill. His brother ressurected brother goes by the name of Alrion Fawx, though he would never admit to being related and uses his brothers new last name as proof.

Due to a murderous robot, he died and was ressurrected by his wife.
