Thrambo Drakesbane



Thrambo Drakesbane is a renowned inventor in Arakujii and is widely known for his revolutionary adaptation of simple automatons into war constructs. Born a merchant in the strict caste system of the dwarves, Thrambo grew up a blacksmith like his father before him and his father's father. When the adaptation of blackpowder made its way from fireworks to firearms, Thrambo's father, Hodek, turned around the family's faultering smithing shop into one that would single handedly supply over half of the firearms and explosives in the dwarven arsenal. Thrambo himself was taught how to form musket balls and pepper boxes. It wasn't until he was allowed to attempt his own creation that he managed to create the drakestone. A solidified gemstone of pure explosive power that can be used to create safer and more reliable weaponry.

Upon earning himself control of the family business from his late father, Thrambo decided it was time to expand his family's business to the surface. Throughout his life, he had heard tales of the elven councilor, Kinil Tanseivar, who had visited his people many times over and changed Arakujii forever. Thrambo was determined to match Kinil's legendary inventive ability and even surpass it. However, unlike his deep knowledge in explosives and weaponry, Kinil seemed far more pacifistic in his creations. This difference in values would eventually spark a rivalry between the two geniuses. Thrambo working explicity with the Arakujii military to bolster their firepower, while Kinil would work with the public to better the lives of those within the Emperor's borders.

Today, Kinil and Thrambo are known to be intellectual rivals to most in northern Arakujii. Their respective corporations are constantly waging an economic war with eachother in an attempt either to buy the other out or sink them in dept. This is only furthered by the fact that the criminal organization known as the Jade Roses constantly steals shipments from both corporations and sells them on the black market. Each blaming the other for their incompetence and unwillingness to combat these groups.
