Name: Draven Kaelith Height: 6'3" Draven is a highly experienced warrior who has spent most of his life fighting monsters, criminals, mercenaries, and other threats. He's not a hero because he wants fame or recognition. He simply believes that if someone has the ability to stop something terrible from happening, they should. He's quiet and controlled, but not emotionless. He simply doesn't waste words. His personality comes across as intimidating because of how calm he remains even in dangerous situations. Backstory: Draven was born in a relatively ordinary human settlement, but his childhood didn't stay ordinary for long. When he was young, his home was attacked by a group of raiders and monsters. Draven survived, but the experience completely changed how he viewed the world. He learned early that good people aren't always protected simply because they're good. Rather than becoming obsessed with revenge, Draven became obsessed with being strong enough that he would never be helpless again. He trained constantly. Swordsmanship. Hand-to-hand combat. Endurance. Tracking. Survival. Anything that could keep him alive. As he grew older, his abilities became noticeably beyond those of an ordinary human. His strength, speed, reflexes, and endurance developed to an almost unnatural level. Eventually, he joined the Adventurer's Guild. Unlike many adventurers who seek treasure, fame, or glory, Draven primarily accepted dangerous contracts because they gave him opportunities to protect people and test himself. Over the years, he developed a reputation as someone who could be trusted when a mission became extremely dangerous. He doesn't consider himself a hero. He considers himself someone who gets the job done.

GOAL & MOTIVE

Goal: Draven's goal is actually fairly simple: Become strong enough that he never has to watch someone helplessly die again. He doesn't dream of becoming king. He doesn't want fame. He doesn't care about becoming the strongest warrior alive. He wants control over his own ability to protect people. Motive: Draven's motivation comes from his childhood. He knows what it's like to be powerless. Because of that, he has a particular hatred for people who deliberately prey on those who can't defend themselves. He can tolerate criminals. He can tolerate enemies. He can even understand people doing terrible things to survive. But people who enjoy hurting the helpless are different. That's where Draven's morality becomes darker. He believes some people can be redeemed. Others, in his eyes, have crossed a line. And when he decides someone has crossed that line, mercy isn't guaranteed.
