Serph was born into a small town called Merpuin, a town with a population of a little more then 100 people. Merpuin is a middle town mostly used for merchants to rest for the night and continue on their way. Most people that call it home often talk about leaving for the bigger cities but very rarely do. The only magic in the town is what people bring into the town and it leaves just as fast as it enters. It is surrounded by forest on one side and mountains on the other. The only real problem they have is they get attacked from time to time by bandits, normally they just steal some life stock and harass the villagers.

Serph was born to a mother that was the town Inn keeper and his father was a logger that would often be gone for days away on work. Serph would often respected by the adults in the village as a child, he would do everything within is power to help his mother around the inn, cleaning rooms, bring trivial things to the attendants and getting supplies when they where needed. When his father was home, Serph would send every moment he had with his father. Serph idolized him and would often try to leave with him to go become a logger like him.

When Serph was about 10 he got news that his father was killed while he was out working. His father was killed by Wood Elves, however; Serph was told it was bandits that killed him and his group. He was devastated when the news got to him, he thought that if he was there he could have defended his father. For a while Serph fell into a depression, in which he started slacking in his work around the inn and lost a lot of the recognition that he had gained around the town. After a few months he pulled himself out of it and decided that he was going to defend the town. He took up an interest in fighting and would train tirelessly, he was not going to let the same thing keep happening to the town.

The bandits would come and Serph would fight them off most of the time to no avail, he would get very injured and putting his mother in a constant state of worry. Serph became somewhat of a joke to the bandits as the "good-for-naught protector". After a while they would come just to get him worked up for their amusement.

When Serph was 16 the bandits decided they really wanted to mess with him. A small group of three came into the village in traveling robes they ransacked off some traders and entered the inn. While one stole his sword the other walked up to the desk and pulled a knife on his mother, threatening to kill her. Serph, in a panicked state tried to run to her rescue only to get tripped and his own sword held against him. He was ordered to sit back down in his chair, however; when he got up he did something he didn't know he could do. Before he knew it he had a bolt of arcane energy shoot from his hand, hitting the bandit standing right in front of him in the chest and knocking him over. Surprised by this, Serph tried again and sure enough it worked, this time knocking the guy with the knife and his mother dunked behind the desk, just as confused as everyone else. As the last bandit ran, Serph walked up to the one that was going to kill his mother and fired on last bolt into the bandit's face, killing him. As Serph was walking back to the one that had his sword, his armed transformed into arms that resembled a bronze dragon, Serph picked up the bandit and quickly broke his neck in one swift move. When people realized what had happened they where both in a state of awe and fear.
That night the town counsel had a meeting to discuss what happened. They decided it would be better to send him off, the bandits where going to be out for his blood and if they remove him they would go after him and leave the village alone. The next day they approached Serph and told him that they where going to send him to Lemals, a town that was quite a bit larger so he could train and being back people to defend them. Serph, being as he was didn't want to leave but saw this as the only way to protect his mother, knowing the bandits would come back for her and himself.

When Serph got to Lemals he was almost instantly rushed to see the king. The king, knowing about people with Draconic blood, instantly enlisted him in Knight training where he spent the next two years. While there he was often pushed harder then the other recruits and often would pass out during his training. However, he advanced quicker then anyone else, quickly gaining total control over his magic potential and becoming proficient with his greatsword. and was deemed a knight. He got his first mission when he was 18, it was to go to the Dwarf village of (town name where we are) and investigate the disturbances that they have been getting complains about.
