Personal history

Rakan was born as the middle child to Kanan al-Shakir and his wife Samara. Rakan had a good relationship with both his parents and siblings but wished to make a name for himself without his family name opening doors for him. Bound and determined to do so, he left Shalzar at 18 to travel to Casteel. He struggled to find his footing in a city of strangers before eventually falling in with a group called the Sparrows there.
 
A few months after joining the Sparrows the group would target an arriving caravan that was rumored to be bringing in a small fortune but was surprisingly not as guarded as it was meant to be a secret. Rakan served in a more supporting role in this, working as a lookout and distraction. The job was successful but it turns out they had inadvertently targeted a shipment meant to arrive for the dragon lord of Casteel.
 
Soldiers of the dragon descended upon the group’s hideout and Rakan was lucky to escape with his life. Finding a caravan heading out to Shalzar that morning, the young al’Shakir used his father’s name to get on board. Now he heads home to start over after realizing he will need more experience and help before being able to forge his own path.
