<strong>Name:</strong>Andrew Christopher Drake (Usually referred to as Mr. Drake or simply Drake)<br/><strong>Sex:</strong>Male (99% of the times although there are a select few witnesses that swear to have seen him as a female!)<br/><strong>Age:</strong>Not easily determinable although it could be placed in his half-thirties. Witnesses, though, have stated that Mr. Drake has appeared much older or younger, depending on his personal needs.<br/><strong>Race: </strong>Human... at least he seems to have all the characteristics of a human being.<br/><strong>Position (staff or visitor):</strong>Visitor<br/><strong>Abilities/Useful Items:</strong>Mr Drake owns an antiquities shop. Actually he owns one of<em>those</em>antiquities shop. He has access to an almost endless plethora of curious and unusual objects, many of them unique and some of them definitely dangerous. He does not seem to show any particular ability but his behaviour, manners and knowledge seem to hint that he has seen everything in the world at least twice. His shop is connected with many unusual/mysterious events and there are some unusual beings that actually work for him/are scared of him.<br/><strong>Orientation (feel free to link O/Os here):</strong>Heterosexual (likes females)/dominant.<br/><strong>Appearance:</strong>Always polite and smiling, Mr Drake is the perfect shopkeeper or at least he tries hard to look the part. He likes wearing somber colours and his dresses are always tasteful if a bit outdated. He is tall and a bit skinny, green eyed and pale-skinned. His black hair is heavily streaked with precocious grey and he always has at hand a pair of gold-trimmed pince-nez glasses. He also carries his trusty magnyfing glass in his pocket and he is seldom seen without a wooden, silver handled walking cane.<br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Drake is a serious businessman. As such, he has a professional side that is cast out of stainless steel... he NEVER cheats, NEVER lies and NEVER makes "friendly" discounts when his job is involved. He is a ferocious haggler and it is almost impossible to fool him in that field. While on break... he is a rather laid-back if a bit gruff fellow. His most notable characteristic is his ironic streak (he is a bit of a smartass). He is a firm believer in friendship, though although it is not easy to be called "friend" by him.<br/>
