An old foreign man once told him the power and wisdom dragon, and he believes that he can be taught the dragon's way of power. He also seeks to free his friend from slavery with large sums of money. [b]Background/History:[/b] [list] [*] Grew up in the southern region of the Andred kingdom, raised from a poor family of farmers. [*] Despite working as a farm hand, he had learned spearplay from a lizardman slave who he became friends with on the farm. As a young boy he was fascinated with the unusual looking slave and made efforts of kindness and conversation, such as bringing him morsels of food and helping him with chores in secret. This quickly bonded the two to a closely nit friendship. The lizardman's name was Alex and he told him about dragons and their glory, inspiring Fafnir of their power and wisdom despite their savage and beastly infamy. Though it seems fabricated, Fafnir nonetheless was now determined to seek out such power. Before he decided to set off however, he also figured to amass as much cash as possible to buy Alex's freedom. This lead Fafnir to find two goals in his life, which would be the driving factor of his exploration, adventure, and mercenary work. [*] Alex, a name he had given to the lizardman after a few conversations. Alex had snuck off with him in the few times he was able to train Fafnir with use of a spear, in a style that reflected the savage and beastly aggression of his race. [*] Leaving the farm, with what little money he spent he bought his own spear and started to explore regions outside of the southern border at the age of 16. With the promise to free his lizardman friend with the fortune he will retrieve. [*] He obtained his Short sword, shield, and armor from a retired knight foreign to his province, who was nostalgic of the young adventurer upon their encounter. Though the knight never claimed who he served, he went by the name of Sir Siegfried. After the veteran challenged and beat Fafnir to a duel, he offered to train the young traveler and offer some equipment, the armor given to him was refurnished and customized with a cape to symbolize his quest inspired by Alex, to find and learn the powers of the dragon. He furthered Fafnir's skill in battle, adding discipline to the savagery Alex had taught him. And he became handy with his new weaponry as well, though still did best with his trusty spear.
