Backstory: He was born in Canterlot and raised by his parents, his father being a unicorn who studied magic, and his mother being an earth pony who worked with, essentially, alchemy.<br /><br />When Drakk was around the age of five, his mother got incredibly sick. They couldn't afford to get her to the hospital due to finance problems, so his father left, heading for the Everfree Forest for some herbs that could hopefully cure his wife. Unfortunately, he never came back. Drakk's mother eventually left him aswell, and Drakk was left alone in "his" home in Cantorlet. He tried to make do with what he had, buy he was way too young to find a way to make money for food, resorting to begging for bits just to survive. He eventually got sick of his current lifestyle, and left Canterlot in tears, hoping to find a new home, and with it, new begginings.<br /><br />He ran for a amount of time unknown to him, his body aching with exhaustion, until he found a hut. He collapsed at the door of the hut, unable to continue any further. Fortunately, the resident of the hut heard the commotion outside, and stepped out to see what was happening. The resident of the house was a Zebra named Zenar. Zenar was mortified when he saw a small colt, barely six years old, lie down infront of his door. He let Drakk into his house, taking care of him til he felt that he was ready to leave. <br /><br />Apparently Zenar was very skilled in potion making and had many books about magic. Drakk interest got piqued when he heard about the books on magic, reminiscing about his father who tried to teach him a bit about it. Drakk, wanting to atleast follow in his fathers hoofsteps a little, studied. He studied for a long time.<br /><br />Years went by, and he one day realized his special talent, which he found out by finding Zenars diary. Why was he so intent on finding it? He felt that the zebra was keeping something from his, so he followed his urges to the basement, and proceeded to demolish it in search of the diary. When Zenar came down to investigate the commotion, and shortly thereafter shrieked in horror at the sight of his wrecked basement, Drakk's cutiemark appeared on both sides of his flank. After an apology to the zebra, he got the punishment of cleaning up the basement [i]and[/i] getting all the ingredients Zenar needed for whatever he felt like cooking up.<br /><br />After years and years of training and studying magic, he figured it was time to leave the zebra and find his own way. So he bade him farewell, thanked him for his hospitality, got a big crushing hug in response, and left, eventually settling down live in a cave situated in a mountain somewhere, to continue his studies in solitude. The mountain he lived in was quite close to the Everfree, with a pony settlement being nearby, so supplies where no problem. He kept studying magic, doing many experiments to understand it better, until he finally felt like he finished his studies. And so, he packed up, and eventually decided that he didnt want to just settle down somewhere. He wanted to travel. To see Equestria and the world beyond. And that's just what he did. He travelled through Equestria, and other countries alike, only stopping to explore what he has found or setting up camps during the night. During his travels, he has had many experiences, and acquired many friends(Which he didnt know how he got).
