Origin
Drakston Entity was originally a two-bit party magician who performed card tricks and slight hand. Eventually he stumbled upon a magical gem in the lost Temple of Egroeg (why he was there, the world may never know) and became cursed. He was given great power and could cast masterful illusions but was forced to provide human flesh for the gem’s keepers, a duo of fierce harpies.

The Goon Volume 2
Drakston Entity the Bizzarist made his way to the Moonlit Firefly to perform a dazzling magic show; it was here that he met Franky, friend of The Goon, who was attending the show with a date. Franky was chosen by Drakston’s assistants and was cast away by a magical spell, Drakston then hypnotized the audience to make them forget that Franky had ever existed.
It had turned out that Drakston had attempted to kidnap Franky and planned on feeding him to his assistants, who were actually two harpies that were the protectors of the magical gem worn on Drakston’s head. When confronted by The Goon Drakston confessed that he wasn’t a murderer and that he had tried (but failed) to give the harpies an alternate food source.
In order for The Goon to save his friend and dispose of the harpies for good, he shattered the stone, killing Drakston & his harpies.
