| + | Being the oldest child of Mannix, Jaden has grown up with the mindset of a pioneer. He has typically been very uncomfortable being confined into any one spot, always looking to explore - to see new things. This has lead to him wandering several of the worlds continents, and trying his hand in many professions. |
| | + | |
| | + | Additionally, he always had a close bond with his father, Mannix. This gave him a very strong sense of honor, ethics and the warrior code. Jaden takes after his father, Splinter, in taking his life very seriously. He is very even tempered for the most part, in stark contrast with his brother Fisc. |
| | | | |
| | + | Jaden considers himself to be a very typical warrior - following the warrior code militantly. He values nothing higher than honor, loyalty, truth and commitment. He possesses a serious mind, which has helped him gain respect and experience. His ability to focus has allowed him to overcome the fact that he is not as physically gifted as his brothers, and carve out a legacy of his own. He has often annoys those around him with how strictly he holds himself (and others) to codes of honor. |
| | + | |
| | + | Probably the most studius of the four, Jaden loves to read. He has opened his mind to art, history, philosophy, literature and science - believing that understanding such concepts are key to truly finding enlightenment and meaning in such a violent world. Archeology is a particular interest of Jaden as well, finding great wonder and fascination in the subject. |

| − | '''ROLEPLAY EXPLAINING SOME OF JADEN'S HISTORY'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Saiga chuckled under his breath, put his hand on Jaden's shoulder and smiling he remarked, "My friend... it always is." He took a drink from his mug and continued, "tell me of your family."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "I have no family" he replied.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Saiga was taken slightly aback - to have NO family whatsoever is a rare thing to encounter among nobles. Curious, he decided to press Jaden on the matter. "None? No siblings, no parents, nothing?"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "No - nothing. My father, who was from Giblot was killed when I was only an infant. My mother and I were captured by enemies of this realm. Our captors took her as a prize, and decided that I would be raised to be a warrior. As I grew older, I learned to fight and to lead. All the while, my mother plotted our escape to return here, and she taught me my true heritage and to defy my captors when the time was right."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Stone faced, Saiga raised an eyebrow and took another drink. "Where is she now?"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "One night when I was 10 years old, she felt she had finally discovered how to escape and return here, and so she wrapped me in dark clothing and we left. Unfortunately, we were seen and recaptured. For her treachery she was publicly executed." Jaden took another deep drink.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "And being 10, you certainly couldn't go anywhere..." replied Saiga.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "Precisely. For the next 7 years I acted as though I was happy where I was, learning to be a warrior from those who had murdered both my father and mother. Biding my time, I absorbed all the knowledge I could while I gnarled my teeth in hatred toward them. They never suspected for a moment that I hadn't been indoctrinated with their garbage."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Clearly intrigued by the story, Saiga simply gave Jaden a look and a nod, a silent request to provide more information.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "Well, the long and the short of it came down to this - just after my 17th birthday, my tutors felt I was old enough to begin going on campaigns with the rest of the warriors. I saw my opportunity and began to plot how I could possibly escape.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | During a skirmish on the border of Giblot territory, I became isolated from the rest of the men and saw my chance. I turned on a member of my own cavalry, knocking him from his horse. I then stole the horse and rode it as quickly as possible away from the battle and toward Giblot territory. I was ignored by both sides, as they were intent on fighting - and so I was free."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "They didn't come after you... not those who had spent so long training and attempting to brainwash you?" asked Saiga.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "I'm told they did. Apparently they were furious, but they didn't notice I was gone until the battle was over. And even then, I had fled to Giblot territory, and they could not follow. The way I describe it, I'm sure it sounded easy - but trust me it wasn't. I not only had to worry about my former captors, but the citizens of this realm didn't know me either.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I stopped at the first village I found, after already shedding any clothing that might identify me as a foreigner. There I rested, and told my story to many of the locals. Word spread and some of the young men of the town were so incensed that a child of Giblot would have been stolen in that way, they wanted to form a small force to exact revenge. I had to temper their enthusiasm a bit, but I felt I could help channel their aggression into something positive. And, those happen to be the men that you saw behind me. They are my company, and in the past few months, they have been my friends.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | So now, I decided to travel here to Giblot to pledge my loyalty to the realm, and see how I can best serve it."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Absorbing the entire story, Saiga sat back. He initially had felt somewhat skeptical about the new stranger - as is prudent in such a world. But after hearing how he had come to be here, he believed Jaden's sincerity. But one further thing interested him. "Jaden - if I may ask... what WAS the realm that had captured you?"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "As interested as my companions are in vengeance, I am not. Who my captors were is unimportant. At some point, they will fall to my sword - but I do not intend to become a man consumed by pursuit of revenge. That is a path that will only lead to my own destruction. So, for now my friend, I shall keep their identity anonymous. At some future date, when the time is right - I shall reveal more to you.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | But your kindness and interest are meaningful to me, and I appreciate it. Let me get the drinks". Jaden reached in his pocked and pulled out a pouch of coins and gave it to the bartender.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Just as Saiga thanked Jaden for the drinks, a courier came into the bar. He called out to Jaden, claiming to have a letter from Elros. He held out the parchment and Jaden accepted it, immediately opening it. He read the carefully scribed words:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Sir Jaden, I am glad that another brave man stepped out with a sword to defend our lands. We have been too long fighting in this conflict with our bloodthirsty neighbour Outer Tilog. As soon as you get some rest report to our General or Lord Shinu. they will give you instructions what to next. May Gods smile upon you in this time of war.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Signed,
| |
| − | Elros
| |
| − | Chancellor of Giblot
| |
| − |
| |
| − | He showed the letter to Saiga, who smiled intently. "Welcome to the fold" he said.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "Its good to be home - now let’s get to business..." Jaden said, slapping Saiga on the back as the two men left the bar.
