Drake

Drake( ドレイク Doreiku) is a Jack-of-All-Trades mercenary that is affiliated with the renegade order known as The Knights of the Darkmoon, which is based in the country of Fiore. He is known by the monkier, The Unbound Fox, which refers to the destructive fox demon that is sealed inside of him. Fomerly known as Tristain D'Artagnan, he has cut all ties with his family due to complications and has embarked on a journey of self-discovery.

Appearance
Drake is an attractive man in his late teens with very short, dark brown hair. He stands about six feet with a slim but very toned physique, which was gained by his years of wandering throughout the continent. His skin is unreasonably pale that seems to have no explanation whatsoever. A few more unusual features are his blood red eyes and a spiral-like tattoo on his belly.

He dons a long black trenchcoat with a red interior color that is worn over only a white sleeveless tanktop that is loosely tucked and hugs the trunk of his body. On his legs are loose black jeans that have the legs covering most of the black leather combat boots that are on his feet. On his hands are biker gloves that leave the fingers exposed with the ring of his order on his right index finger.. He does possess some jewelry, having one small bead necklace and one long rope necklace that has a small ruby jem. With him he has two pistols, one white, the other black that he could summon whenever he likes and a large, claymore-like sword that is slung on his back.

Personality
On the surface, Drake acts just like a typical asshole would. He lacks proper, has no respect for authority, is very willing to hurt anyone, and is rude to pretty much everybody he meets. He uses curse words as if there was no tommorrow, showing little to no care to who he says it to. Drake also loves to drink, despite of him being underage. He is also very sarcastic when he compliments people, which irritates his comrade Cassandra to no end.

Underneath this heartless bastard however lies a soul that is inflicted with serious grief. Being subjugated to isolation from his family and being envied by those who were under him, Drake never seemed to get along with anybody. Of course, having a very destructive fox spirit sealed inside of him made things much worse, for he was under the constant surveillance by members of dark guilds, military organizations, and other powerful entities that would love to exploit him for their own purposes. It is because of this that his deep hatred for himself was developed.

In battle, Drake has proven to be a show-off due to his incredible fighting skills. He will throw an occasional taunt to his enemy for each time they fail on inflicting damage to him. From there he is also subjagated to an overwhelming will to protect the weak, forcing him to go out of his way to protect even a weakling that seems to annoy him to no end. He also doesn't accept much rewards, only taking money when it's necessary.

Destined at Birth
Even before Drake's birth, Earthland was suffering a crisis. A destructive fox demon terrorized many countries, ranging from devouring livestock to destroying entire cities. Many armies and guilds went to confront the powerful monster, only to come back with failure. It wasn't until a very power mage came and challenged the demon by himself. Many people scoffed at the idea of how one man thought he could defeat such a monster. Those people were proven wrong, for seven days and seven nights, the battle was waged between the two. Realizing that such a monster couldn't be slain, the mage was forced to seal it.

It was during this time that two powerful nobles concieved a child who they named Tristan, and he became the new heir to the House of D'Artagnan. There was but one complication to this however. The newborn heir soon fell gravely ill. It was then that they were approached by the same mage who had defeated the demon. It was there that the mage offered the family a chance to save their heir, but there was a catch to it. That one condition was that the fox Demon had to be sealed inside of the child. After seven hours of discussion, arguments, and planning, the current head of the family accepted the offer on behalf of the other family members. Thus young Tristan lived for another day.

Childhood
Tristan's life may have been saved by the very mage, but he would soon be forced to learn the harsh reality of being an heir to a prestigous house. He was feared by most of his distant family, thus he never knew much of his large family. The ones who didn't avoid or fear him came to love the young child. He was taught by the finest teachers that money could afford, giving him an amazing education. He was spoiled by his parents in both toys and attention, for they were the ones who loved him the most.

This may have seemed to be a great life for the young lad, if it wasn't for the obvious fact that commoners knew about the demon that was sealed inside of him. Due to this, he never could make any friends and because of this that the House of D'Artagnan was losing its influence and power. After years of humiliation and disappointment, Tristan's mother committed suicide. Thus was the start of the downfall of his relationship with his father.
