Early Life
Dragan was the second child born to a middle class family in District Three. He had a very strong relationship with his parents and his older sister, but particularly with his father - however this was later damaged once he discovered at the age of twelve that his father was involved in the District's black market. After following his father to the building where they stored the smuggled goods, Dragan began to smoke the cigars that he found there, quickly becoming addicted to smoking. The addiction had an adverse effect on his personality, making him paranoid and distrustful of people. However, he is aware of his need for discipline due to his addiction, and so has deliberately hurt himself several times in the past when he thought he deserved it. He attributes his calm - sometimes even verging on lazy - exterior to this internal self-discipline.
Before the Games
Dragan's addiction drove him to become more and more distant from his family in the lead up to his Reaping. His dread of adulthood - perhaps even more concerning to him than the threat of the Games - made him embrace his freedom to be lazy as a teenager, and his need for excitement in a life he saw as boring encouraged him to be more promiscuous, too. Soon before the 62nd Games, Dragan struck up a sexual relationship with Tony Fletcher, although up to that point he had never accepted that he was bisexual. However, this "romance" was cut short when Dragan decided to volunteer for the 62nd Games.

Reaping and Training
Disrict Three Reaping On the night before the Reaping, Dragan found it difficult to get to sleep, and arrived at the District Square agitated and nervous the next morning. Seeing his father in the parents' stand turned Dragan's nervousness into rage, as he knew that his relationship with his father had deteriorated to the point that he no longer wanted to live in the same house - even District - as him. It was this foul relationship, and a desire to "prove a point" to his father, that led Dragan to volunteer when the male tribute's name was called.
