When I was boy living in Transylvania, I was always the -ah- strange one. I always excelled in school. Always, I was a genius, a prodigy. I was also known by everyone. Well, By name anyway. I didn't have many friends. I was eccentric. I was more interested in human anatomy then was healthy, for a boy my age. I think I was eight? yes, that was.... second grade? Third? I don't remember, in any case I was a young lad and I was taking some sort of mathematical class it -ah- was extremely easy for me. I was always the last one picked, always, on the playground, I was also the skinniest. My parents were not rich or powerful. In fact, they were quite poor. They tried their best to the best for me that they could. I was never the best dressed, never had any of those fanciful video games, or a computer. All I had was my imagination, some pens and pencils and paper. Sometimes I had to miss school to work and get money to help my family. I could see the pain in my mothers eyes when she saw me working in the scrap yard. I guess that's where I first found my talent for engineering. I was ten, working in the scrapyard, one of the scrap-yard workers found me using a robot to help salvage parts from an old Warthog. He was impressed, told the overseer or who ever and he paid me 200 credits for it, it was a lot to a kid my age so I said yes, it would help my family. I didn't know that the man would later sell it for over 5000 credits to ONI, and later be used by there engineers as a base for some prototype they were working on. That same day, I returned home from the scrapyard, to find it empty, all the furniture was gone, the paintings, the windows, everything. I felt lost. I had no one to turn to. No place to go. No home, no family. They just disappeared.

During character creation in TES: Arena, choosing the Breton race elicits the following: "Thy race is descended from the ancient Druids of Galen, quick witted and strong in the mystical arts. Thy folks are crafty and intelligent, a learned people who use their gifts to guide others to enlightenment..." There has been no mention of the Druids of Galen since.
