Jericho's Extended Background
Extended Background: Jericho was born into wealth, his father was a wealthy merchant with a successful trade in silk, and a mother who was quite an accomplished magician in her own right. They had two sons, Jericho and Jafar, Jericho being the older of the two he was destined to take the helm of the merchant business and live a life of traveling and selling goods. The traveling part suited Jericho fine, but he had no love of being a merchant, he liked to get physical, while his brother was the scholar and had a head for numbers and the business of trade.
Jericho though hit upon a scheme, and enlisted the aid of his younger brother, the two faked Jericho’s death, thus allowing him to avoid the fate of the businessman without actually having to own up to the responsibility, which suited Jericho just fine. Despite himself though, he does wish at times that he did take up the family business, at least for the prestige and power, but feels it will be better to make his own name and own way.
He joined the army to find purpose, and to get as far away from his past, and try to get a feel for what the lesser folks do, and how to live. With his social rank and privilege, his father could have easily bought him a commission, but he wanted to do things his way, and besides since his father thought he was dead, he wouldn’t have much support as it stood. He enjoyed fighting, and working hard, but he did not have taste for the structure or taking orders, and he liked to lead, or at least do what he wanted to do. In a way he was spoiled, and used to getting his way, but this only burned the fire of ambition even brighter.
He was discharged with Honor, when his enlistment came to a close, and took to a life of traveling and seeing what the lands far beyond his own were like. He had a penchant for getting himself into trouble for opening his mouth, and he liked to enjoy himself a little too much, which gives him the outward demeanor of a partying brute. But he prides himself on being clean, and well kept, and treats his possessions like heirlooms, keeping them clean and well kept, and despite his loud braggart nature, he is not above using the social charms ingrained into him in his youth when it suits him.
For now, he chooses to live a life of adventure, and hopefully carve his name into the annals of history by his own blade. Perhaps he can make himself a king, or maybe a powerful general, or maybe something more that he has yet to fathom. It is a big-wide world out there, and it is wide open for him to make his mark in it.
