    Drak has been a merc for over ten years, with several different
companies.  His role is usually as a scout or skirmisher.  Recently, he
was hired as a guard on a merchant's expedition to the rainforest.

   Corfin, the merchant, claimed that he had finally come up with a way
to make a fortune off of the rainforest (though never detailed his plan,
as he worried about other people cashing in on his idea before he
could).  Drak never found out for certain the nature of Corfin's scheme,
only that whatever it was, it didn't work.

Unfortunately, Corfin had been so sure of his own abilities that he had
invested all his resources into the failed plan, counting on the profits
earned through it to pay his bodyguards.  When told that he would not be
paid for his services, Draktahvi killed Corfin for his breach of
contract.

     Drak spent the past several months in the rainforest.  He and the
other guard on the expedition, Esau, an argainian, found minor work
helping out in skirmishes between warring tribes. In this way they
finally earned enough in the way of supplies to begin their trek back to
Tor-VarDen. He had just returned to civilization when he was abducted.

     Draktahvi, as a worshipper of Ridvu, has a very definite view of
what actions are required of people.  He will fulfill any agreement
(written, verbal or understood) that he has engaged in to the best of
his abilities, unless the other half of the bargain is not fulfilled.
If forced into a contract under duress or through trickery, he will
still endeavor to fulfill the letter of the contract.  However, such
contracts hold less weight than any previous contracts agreed to without
duress, should the two come into conflict. Although Drak is basically
selfish, he will give his life to uphold an oath, if that is what it
takes.

Ventri are a race of mammalian humanoids that are, in T'Phon,
believed to share an ancient ancestor with weasels or ferrets. They tend
to be more perceptive and coordinated than humans, and have a natural
body fur that protects them against harsher winter weather climates. It
is unknown where the Ventri originate - it is believed that the current
population are descendants from the crew of a shipwrecked vessel that
arrived on the continent during the First Age of T'Phon's history. They
have integrated well into the human dominant society, and in the process
have lost most of their own cultural past. Humans often believe that
there is nothing so dangerous as a Ventri that is cornered or hungry,
but it is not known if this is a built up stereotype based on unfounded
prejudice or the result of careful propaganda in centuries past by the
Ventri to aide survival. The Ventri were, once, greatly outnumbered by
the Human population, but have now come close to equalling them in
numbers in the Baronies (They are less common in the Rain Forest and
Jambian areas of the world).

adventures in T'Jacob and his involvement in a number of events
including a revolution against the Baron T'Jacob.]
