Darklord of Falkovnia Vlad Drakov is originally from Taladas in Krynn, where he was a mercenary captain known as the Hawk. His men were the Talons of the Hawk, and they were widely known as ruthless and brutal enforcers of whoever was paying their expenses. When Drakov first arrived in Ravenloft, he and his men found themselves in Darkon, where they set about trying to make a territorial claim by destroying a village and putting the inhabitants on pikes. When the villagers animated in typical Darkonese fashion, Drakov and his men were forced to flee into the Mists, where the domain of Falkovnia formed for Vlad Drakov.
Drakov has ruled for over 90 years, though he appears to be only in his late sixties. Speculation on his slowed aging has ruled out undeath, but the cause of his longevity is still a desperate secret. Through his numerous wives, mistresses, slave-concubines and the right of First Night, Drakov has children of all ages, all over Falkovnia (and perhaps beyond). If one of his illegitimate children earns renown, Drakov may extend an invitation to join House Drakov, formally legitimizing the relationship and allowing the new Drakov a measure of wealth and power.
Drakov prefers impalement as a method of execution, and demands at least one such execution to accompany each of his evening meals.
