welcome to auradon, ARRAN DRAKE (THE SHERIFF OF NOTTINGHAM) ! they look an awful lot like COLIN O'DONOGHUE. they are currently working as a MERCENARY and are THIRTY-TWO. if you get to know them, you would say that they can be CHARISMATIC but they could also be RUTHLESS. HE have been said to identify as a BISEXUAL MALE . lastly, they have been in auradon for A FEW WEEKS.
Arran grew up in a normal, loving home, the only son to two poor farmers. Life was hard, and he and his loved ones had nothing. His parents both fell sick and died before he’d reached the age of fifteen, and they couldn’t afford medicine for either of them. He swore never to feel that hardship again if he could, and he left home to go join the guard.
It was a rougher world than he expected, working in the military, but Arran took to it well. He only had to care about and look after himself, and obey what orders he was given. Turning out to be good with a blade, and a good leader with the other men, he quickly advanced; gaining rank and power with every year.
He was surprised not to be sent off with Richard when he left to the fight, established as Sheriff of Nottingham and suddenly he was having to take heavy taxes from the village and fight the outlaws trying to help them. Arran didn’t like it, but those were his orders and John was the king, whether he liked him or not. He was merciless, unable to let himself be soft or he’d fail in his duty, which he knew meant death.
Arran was almost glad when it was over, the true king returning to set things to right. Being imprisoned with John felt unjust, but it only got worse when he was suddenly trapped on an Isle of poverty. He was back where he started, an it filled him with a dark rage. He was thrown on the Isle about a decade after that started, which only made it worse. No power or strength, having to find an unclaimed home and fight for survival.
He was left there to rot until the barrier was destroyed by Hades, unleashing Arran an his vengeance on Auradon. However, he wasn’t an idiot, and wasn’t going for blood immediately. He would wait, plot, and observe the so called heroes to look for an advantage. Until then, he finds work where he can. A guard, occasional hunter, whoever will hire him the man will take. Arran is either here for vengeance, or simply going to leave Auradon for good. Both plans require funds that he doesn’t currently have.
Personality:
Arran can be thoughtful, and kind in a roundabout way. He worries about seeming weak, and so often puts on a hard exterior. He doesn’t trust easily, but he does his best not to be needlessly unkind though fails occasionally.
When pushed, Arran can be violent and ruthless, his compassion for others something he has to work for. He has little to no friends, and he holds on to his grudges tightly. Arran is lonely, but puts on a good act for the world.
