Meet the Draven Family

Dune Draven, mother
Dune was a devoted wife and was very protective of her family. She was known as “Mother” to the people of Coldwater as she ran a daycare and home school for the children that didn’t “fit in” at Coldwater Public School. Her teaching methods had mixed reviews from the townsfolk. People either worshipped or despised her.
Jade Draven, daughter
Jade, from a very young age was obsessed with Halloween, especially the tradition of carving pumpkins. Her Father would take her to a local “Fun Farm” every October to pick a pumpkin.
On her 13th birthday while trying to pick out the perfect pumpkin, she would be involved in an horrific farming accident. The accident left her so disfigured that her father kept her locked in the Mill knowing how cruel the world was. Legend says during October she would sneak out every night to collect a Pumpkin for every day of the month.
Jo Draven
Jo was the athlete of the family, whether it was a hockey stick or a baseball bat in his hands, he excelled at using his “weapons” to defeat his opponents. He was banned from playing local hockey after injuring many players (some severely). His homemade goalie mask was said to be made from an actual human skull.
