Personal history
The Drake family has owned a rather modest estate just outside the town of Porto Marina for generations.
While far from nobility, the family is respected well enough as a local winemakers, they own a storefront in the town. Over time they’ve acquired a reputation for such good work and the Drake label has become reasonably marketable outside of the town’s area. Since Desmond’s grandfather the family has sailed their goods to market in Vitemozzo, and allows traders to purchase and resell in other towns/cities.
There’s a somewhat darker side to the family business however, as previous entrepreneur’s had used the facilities normally set aside for the infusion of wine and drink to more sinister uses. To those in certain circles, who would know to approach the family- they also sell poisons for any purpose with the right pocket book. And in Tempesta, a country where mercenaries are commonplace, the enterprise has grown stoic roots.
Desmond Drake, is the younger of two brothers by 8 years. His father passed away 6 years ago, and his older sibling, Edmond Drake inherited the operations of the family business. The Family is steeped in seafaring tradition, as are most in the country, and Desmond served, for most of his adult life, on the Privateer Vessel “Prince Caspian.” After hearing of the death of his father, Desmond retired from the Caspian’s crew and returned home. He stayed for 2 years, during which he relearned the trade of the family and his childhood, and aided his brother in stabilizing the family business.
