Srasut belongs to one such clan. Like the dragons whose scales they wear and with whom they often war, they live deep in the forest. The forest is their home and sustaining force, making those spirits who protect such places their particular allies. Among this clan, unlike most dragonborn, the number of those who have the ability to call upon these spirits is very high and are regarded very highly. The clan has a great devotion to the Dragon Spirit in particular who guides and protects the clan. Should one think of this tribe as barbaric or uncivilized, he would be gravely mistaken. The innate order in the dragonborn which made ancient Arkhosia (or some other setting appropriate dragonborn civilization) so strong is in the blood of every dragonborn, and this wilderness clan is no different. The clan may not build great cities or empires, but their inner workings are no less ordered because of their love of the wilderness and its spirits.Srasut, since his very hatching, has been trained in the art of calling upon primal spirits to accomplish great feats. Before he hatched, his father, Maakor, a clan shaman, had received a vision from the Dragon Spirit informing him of his son's great destiny. Maakor then devoted his life to raising his son in the ways of the spirits of the forest. The Dragon Spirit, it appears, had something special planned for him indeed, for Srasut did not channel the spirits as the druids, shamans, or wardens who abounded in his clan, but in a new way. His father called him a Seeker because his desire to track down and stop those who defile the wilderness and alienate its spirits was unrivaled among the clan. It was on just such a hunt, venturing far from the boundaries of the clan's territory, that he first encountered his current allies. While shadowing these strangers, Srasut received a prompting from the Dragon Spirit to travel with them on their quest, for it would lead him toward his own destiny. Srasut had long ago learned to trust the Spirit, no matter how odd the request seemed. He, therefore, introduced himself to this strange group, and after an initial misunderstanding, was accepted into the party.So his background would be "Chosen of the Spirit Drake" from PHB Races: Dragonborn. I'm not too familiar with this theme business though.</blockquote>
