Kyban burst into the warehouse and proceeded to give Drex a sound thrashing, even though the human boy was three years his senior, and about four times his mass.  Intrigued by this exhibition, Ghostblade invited Kyban to join the Velvet Hand, promising him a life free from hunger and struggle.  For the next five years, Kyban studied the Way of Shadow under Ghostblade’s stern tutelage.  His first contract assassination went smoothly, but as he stooped to examine the body, he discovered that the victim had been a kindly old man who had often given Kyban and Tenley shelter when they were young.  Kyban was horrified, and he seriously began to question the direction his life had taken.  Knowing that Ghostblade would never allow someone to leave the Velvet Hand freely, Kyban used subterfuge to fake his own death and slip out of Waterdeep, making his way to Neverwinter where he hoped to use his talents in an effort to atone for the murder that he had committed.</blockquote>
