Early years
Drake Wane was born to Patricia and Herbert Wane in Milwaukee, WI. Patricia, an elementary school teacher, and Herbert, a locally recognized ceramics artist, actively worked to dissuade their son from playing organized sports. After summers of poetry camps, oil painting nights, speech and debate retreats, and failed attempts to form a family band, Drake Wane joined the football team in his sophomore year of high school as an ill-attempted act of rebellion towards his parents. Not intending to play, Wane was forced into the starting line-up his junior year after sub-standard cleaning protocols in the Biology lab led to a school-wide case of pink-eye. As one of the views active players without conjunctivitis, Wane's debut was underwhelming - but the creative skills developed from his childhood art exposure gave him exceptional spatial awareness, comfort in freelancing situations, and pattern matching when visually mapping plays on the field. During his senior year, Drake was named 2nd team All-State and published a poem in the local paper.
College career
Drake held no offers for football after leaving high school. However, he was offered a creative writing scholarship to Lawrence College until he received a Twitter DM from a Clemson University defensive backs coach (Coach Creed). Creed was doing tape receive for a promising underclassman running back, Wayne Drake, and due to misreading the spreadsheet, found Drake Wane's tape. While Drake was playing against underwhelming and undersized competition, Creed thought highly of Wane's intangibles and unique play style. Creed also took a Short Fiction class in college, though Wane's review of an O Henry story for the school paper showed real engagement with the text. Wane earned a preferred walk-on offer from Clemson and played on the scout team for his redshirt season through his redshirt sophomore year. After making plays on special teams, Wane earned a starting spot his Redshirt Senior year, where he made 3rd team all-ACC. Wane was a player who did not register many counting stats but frequently was in a position to confuse offenses and provide needed help in run and pass support

Professional career
DSFL career
2060 (S45) Wane was named defensive captain in their first season on the Grey Ducks, where they started every game as a Strong Safety. Wane's rookie DSFL season was productive but served more as a learning opportunity about the rigors of Simulation Football than filling the stat sheet. Wane's most significant contribution was a lack of negative plays more than a bevy of game-breaking Havoc plays. Alongside Free Safety Pee-Pee Poop-Eater, Wane was part of a Ducks secondary that was 2nd in the DSFL North in passing yards allowed and in the top half of the DSLF overall. Due in part to the influence of his agent, Harlan "Big Dollar" McCrary, Wane began self-publishing media and press releases to increase his awareness among ISFL fanbases. While the readership is low, McCrary assured Wane that the non-refundable $2,000 creative writing intensive workshop McCrary facilitated for Wane will pay off in the long run."
