Revision as of 22:23, 8 February 2016

Elementalist Drake Thunderbrand is a dwarf and friend of Lady Allura.

Drake has short, black hair with a beard "trimmed fairly fine." When he first encountered Vox Machina in 4x02, he was wearing red leathers and apparently unarmed, though carrying a gnarled, curved wand. The wand almost spirals in a messed-up sort of way, with a well-treated surface.[2]

Somewhat exuberant in personality[3], Drake can also be quite soft—both concerned and supporting—toward Lady Allura[4][5].

Background

Years ago, Drake was part of an adventuring party with Lady Allura, Lady Kima, Sirus, Dohla, and Ghenn. They sealed the ancient red dragon Thordak in the Elemental Plane of Fire, at the cost of Sirus, Dohla, and Ghenn's lives.

Elementalist Abilities

In 4x02, Allura introduced Drake as an elementalist, which is not a standard class in 5th edition of Dungeons & Dragons.

In 4x03, Drake employed an unusual means of transportation using elemental electricity, much to the surprise and awe of Vox Machina. It is a custom spell of his own design.[6]

During the Fall of Emon

In 4x02, Drake accompanied Allura to Greyskull Keep after the Chroma Conclave's assault on Emon.

In 4x03, Drake used an elemental transportation spell to transport himself and Allura to Vasselheim.
