Weight: ? (average for his "age")
Gender: male
Race: human/dragon

Physical Description:
Drake's got this rugged air about him. Comes from being a mercenary and not caring too much about his wardrobe. He's tall and has an athletic build, but is more lean than brawny. Speed is just as valuable as strength. His skin is tanned to a nice brown, almost bronze when the light's just right. His hair is semi-long and a reddish-bronze color that he keeps back in a short ponytail that flops over the nape of his neck. His slanted eyes are a hazel color that sometimes become slits when he's really angry.
Burns and scars litter his arms and upper body. He may know how to wield it now, but when he had first been transformed it took months just to get a single spark to obey. The long one across his neck like a brand is a reminder of that. Drake's fingers are filled with minor burns, some old and some freshly wrapped in bandages. Two grace his right forearm and another big one on his left shoulder. Across his back his an old scar from a dragon's claws, one he'd gotten as a young dragon from a pissed off elder. The wound never quite healed since he kept his mouth shut about it, so he sometimes has back pains.
Wardrobe-wise, he's got a simple maroon tunic over a dark gray shirt. Practicality over fancy is his philosophy. A pair of black pants tucked into some really worn and mud stained black boots cover his lower body. Some leather bracers are secured on his wrists with images of dragons and fire.
Weapons:
A pair of silver claws he managed to filch from a blacksmith's open forge when he was fifteen. They've been at his main weapon ever since and remind him of his origins. He keeps a knife in his boot as a backup.
Abilities/Powers:
He controls fire, comes from the draconic blood still running through his veins. Drake has deadly control over it and is easily able to manipulate it into fireballs and raging infernos. He also has a tendency to light his claws on fire for extra damage. He does use it to great effect in his public performances. He still burns himself. Drake may be able to control it, but he's not completely immune to the flames.
Since he has a dragon form locked away inside him, he can sometimes call forth his draconic claws into battle, but only when he is in a state of complete rage.
Skills:
Drake's good at juggling fireballs! That, and he can hold a grudge FOREVER. Look at what happened to his family and you'll understand why.
Personality: FYI for the one who wishes to befriend this man; he's got a temper. Not as bad as some, but bad enough that he will unleash his fury without hesitation or reserve upon whoever is unfortunate to tick him off. Couple that with the fact that he relishes combat, but will refuse to fight someone he does not consider worth his time. Plus he can be as blunt as a dulled axe and as stubborn as a mule.
Still, Drake has what one would call a noble side. He's brave to the point of stupidity, yes, but is willing to do anything to save someone. Back in his world he was a mercenary and would gladly do a job for free if someone was unable to pay. Though he doesn't like to get close to people. He has enough wounds to deal with as it is without dealing with friendships.
History:
You want to know this poor creature's history? Alright, but I won't be held responsible for any sudden deaths after I'm done. Let's see now....
The human before you was once a mighty dragon. Young, of course, really only a child in their eyes. Son of a mighty pair that held titles far and wide for both bravery and strength. He had a sister and a younger brother as nestmates plus was beginning to become as renown as his parents. It didn't last.
Slayers came, slayers who believed in the ridiculous fairy tale of gaining the strength of the dragon one has slain. Drake desperately tried to keep his family safe, hiding his siblings, rushing to his parent's sides in the battle, even killing one of the monsters. It was too late. Both his mother and father were slain. In a rage Drake unleashed his fury upon those who had done the deed. His teeth and claws tore the flesh of all but one. One who wielded a cold fire that cut through his body so badly that he couldn't even move and was knocked unconscious.
When he woke, the sorcerer was gone, his spell complete. Drake found his brother and sister gone and worse. He had been transformed into a human. Determined to find them and that sorcerer he left his home and began wandering the land for any sign of their whereabouts. He managed to find sanctuary in a village watched over by a warrior turned shaman and has lived there ever since. Over the years he began to come to terms with his human body thanks to the shaman's guidance and took on the jobs mercenary and local entertainer. Still, even with this good fortune, he's determined to find his siblings and break the curse that is upon him.
On a recent scouting mission in the mountains, he stumbled across something strange. It felt like there was a rip in the very fabric of the existence. Thinking it was one of the portals that littered the land he ignored it and made ready to make the trek back down the mountainside. Apparently the thing didn't like that. Within seconds the ground beneath Drake's feet crumbled and he was falling into darkness. Whatever awaits him on the island he now finds himself doesn't matter. He just wants to get back.
Other: He doesn't exactly like humans after what they did to his parents. He's better now, but the grudge is still there.
Picture: don't have one at the moment ^_^;
