Daniel Drumm

"If Wong has any trepidation to proceed on this matter then it serves you more to heed his instincts rather than insult him."

- Daniel Drumm to Kaecilius

Daniel Drumm was a Master of the Mystic Arts of Kamar-Taj who was charged as the protector of the Sanctum Sanctorum based in New York City. However when a former member of the Masters of the Mystic Arts named Kaecilius betrayed them, he targeted the Sanctorum with his Zealots. Although Drumm attempted to protect the building, he was soon defeated and executed by Kaecilius.

Retrieving the Dark Scepter
"We've been called in to assist in tracking down this relic. This is a situation where the involvement of more than one Master is deemed prudent." "Maybe so, but it is unnecessary."

- Daniel Drumm and Kaecilius

Daniel Drumm and Tina Minoru, two Masters of the Mystic Arts arrived at the Kamar-Taj to assist Wong and Kaecilius track down the Witch who had stolen a powerful relic. Drumm told Kaecilius that Wong's trepidation should be a sign to be careful and heed his instincts rather than just insult him. When Kaecilius asked why they were not doing their other duties Drumm told him the the situation proved serious enough that more than one member of the Masters of The Mystic was needed to subdue the thief. Kaecilius refused however and claimed that he could handle the thief himself. Drumm, Wong, and Minoru later arrived to find an unconscious Kaecilius who had been beaten by the thief and had underestimated the Staffs power. Later at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, the group confronted the thief and after a grueling battle with their combined efforts they were able to overpower her and claim the Scepter. With Drumm and Wong putting it with all the other mystical objects at the Sanctum Sanctorum.

Training with Kaecilius
"I can't remember the last time a landed a blow on you... be careful Kaecilius. I feel as if you're letting your distractions get the better of you."

- Daniel Drumm to Kaecilius

Drumm listened to Kaecilius' concerns about the Ancient One not sharing her knowledge to the other Masters of the Mystic Arts during a training session, but Drumm told Kaecilius that it's not for the Masters to question the Ancient One's methods, but only to protect Earth from the forces that lie beyond.

Attack on the Sanctums
As one the Master of the New York Sanctum, Drum had a meeting with the Ancient One, Tina Minoru and Sol Rama in Kamar-Taj. The Ancient One stopped the meeting as Karl Mordo wised to talk with her.

Death
"Daniel, I see they made you the Master of this Sanctum." "And you know what that means?" "That you will die protecting it."

- Kaecilius and Daniel Drumm
