[edit] Biography
Lieutenant Draza is a Serbian male with a military background, and the right-hand man to Serbian war criminal Zoran Lazarević. Draza has a large build and is powerful,[1] and his weapon of choice is the Dragon Sniper.[2]
[edit] Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
In November 2009, Draza accompanies Lazarević to Nepal during his search for the legendary Cintamani Stone, which is said to be in the mythical lost city of Shambhala. Draza coordinates Lazarević's private army during this time - indeed, Draza seems to be the commander of the soldiers while Lazarević searches for Shambhala.[1]
Draza is present when Lazarević and explorer Harry Flynn catch up to treasure-hunter Nathan "Nate" Drake, who is also searching for Shambhala, in Nepal. Along with Nate are his companions Elena Fisher, the double-agent Chloe Frazer and cameraman Jeff. With Draza watching on, Lazarević kills Jeff in cold blood, before Lazarević hands Draza the Phurba dagger, the apparent key to Shambhala. Nate and Elena are able to escape, while the traitorous Chloe boards Lazarević's train along with Draza and the rest of Lazarević's forces.[1]
Later, Nate boards the train in an attempt to save Chloe, and when Nate's presence is detected, Draza coordinates the effort to have Nate killed. Draza calls in a helicopter to kill Nate, although when Nate is able to destroy it, Draza confronts Nate himself. The confrontation begins with a gunfight, as Draza and Nate exchange gunfire and grenades in the tight train carriage. Eventually, the weapons are dropped and it becomes a fistfight. Although Draza shows impressive hand-to-hand combat skills, Nate is able to knock him down after several hard blows. Nate then retrieves the Phurba dagger from Draza, but Draza then climbs back to his feet and attacks Nate, overpowering him and beginning to choke him. However, this fight back is short-lived as Chloe then appears and shoots Draza, killing him.[1]
