History:

Drentika was raised by monks in the monastery of Order of the Silver Claw in the Sunset mountains of the Far Hills. Her parents were trading merchants out of Scornubel who shipped all kinds of goods along the River Chionthar in between the major harbours of southern Faerûn. Her mother Marita couldn't take care of both trade and education and decided to bring Drentika to the monastery to let the monks teach her the right paths for her upcoming life. Not much is known about her time in the monastery in her youth.

At Drentika's 21th birthday at a mild summer night, her Grandmaster Jo'kinata ordered her Brothers and Sisters to arrange a special tribunal of importance. As the gong was heard throughout the monastery the whole Order gathered around the countyard, expect little Sister Drentika who was gone missing...

Inspired by the history of Taric Bloodhawk, Drentika was seen traveling in red robes along the Trade's Way towards the west to reach the mighty Citadel of Strategic Militancy. The way was longer than expected! In front of the desert she decided to make a deal with traveling merchants supporting their caravan to Baldur's Gate to reach her destination faster.

She never reached the citadel, neither Baldur's Gate as in one night in the middle of a rest, the merchants were attacked and slain by hooded unknown men and Drentika got kidnapped and shipped towards the north.

2 years of fear, blackmail, pain and oppression past as she was able to escape from the Ravens, an organization of thieves in Waterdeep. During one night, while she was on a scouting mission for them, Drentika was able to trick Coylen a known master thief as she told him to wait for her at the back entrance of a noble's house. After he agreed waiting for her, she was sneaking fast through the shadows of the big city and as she reached the habour unseen by the Ravens, she just followed the lights of the ship Exsortior, the only ship which was getting ready to depart at sunrise. While hiding in a cabin near the loading area her only thoughts were "Out of here... destination unknown... out of here...in the name of the Red Knight..."

Of course Drentika was spotted by the seamen the next day and they told her that she is now on a journey towards the far north to Port Avanthyr...
