His face still has some of the roundness of boyhood to it, and it's obvious that if he wanted to grow a beard, he'd have to wait quite awhile. His blond hair, big blue eyes, and smooth features give him a sort of 'teen idol' appeal though, and women seem to go for it. He's also very big on personal hygiene and cleanliness, so his clothing is almost always spotless and odor-free.</p><p></p><p><strong>Personality</strong></p><p></p><p>Jacen is good-hearted, almost to a flaw. He's quick to take pity, slow to anger. Despite his natural skill and talent, and the training he's had, he's never been in real combat, and that naivete shows at times. Moreover, he's apparently led a fairly insular life, and can be socially awkward at times...even excessively shy, especially when a fair lady shows interest in him. At the same time though he has some steel in him, courage enough to challenge the weight of tradition and custom at times to make a case for what he knows is right with all the passionate idealism of a young boy becoming a man.</p><p></p><p><strong>Background</strong></p><p></p><p>Jacen's mother died when he was a child, leaving his rearing to his blacksmith father, Gavien. From early on, he took a lot of interest in his work, which gratified his father. The smithy wasn't the only footstep of her father that Jacen followed in either. Gavien had seen wartime, and one reason his blades were so well made was because he knew how to wield them. He agreed to teach his son what he knew of swordplay...at first to teach him a lesson in how serious swords were when he caught Jacen playing with some blades around the smithy, but when he saw that he had considerable talent for it the lessons became more and more serious.</p><p></p><p>Time passed, and Gavien began to take ill. As he weakened, Jacen took over more and more of his duties at the forge. One day they were visited by Mageara, a witch who lived in the wood nearby. She was spoken of in whispers by the village folk of Ulat, for while she was known to make potent brews that could heal maladies, and some said she'd even had dealings with the strange Sages and their potent, inhuman magicks, Magaera also had a vindictive streak if she felt she was not being treated with due respect. Though no one knew how old she was, she LOOKED young, even beautiful, though terrible in her wrath. She comissioned the crafting of several small blades made from a material she provided called 'cold iron.' With the order, the witch provided exacting specifications for how it was to be forged, some of them very strange. Jacen followed the instructions faithfully, and the weapons were completed on time. When she came for them, she was very pleased...though she didn't say what she needed with such bizarrely crafted knives, nor did Jacen ask. Her reward was twofold. One, she gave him the cloak she wore as payment...she had gotten it from the mystic sages and it had magic woven into its lining. Certainly it was of fine make and exceptional quality and fit...liking the cloak and not wishing to incur her wrath should he doubt it's 'magic,' Jacen took the payment.</p><p></p><p>What he didn't expect was the other 'payment.' Mageara was rather taken by the young lad. His youthful features and slim frame appealed to her...very different than most hulking, hirsuite, blacksmiths. She came back to the smithy more often, asking for...simple items and flirting with Jacen as he worked. Her overtures became more and more overt, until abruptly, the witch stopped. One night she departed the blacksmithy and never returned. Though folk expected to see Jacen as a frog the next day, quite the opposite. He was fine...if anything he seemed healthier and more solid than before. The speculation ran rampant, some saying that the witch had had to go, and had gifted him on her way out. Others said Jacen had spurned her, but the cloak's power had protected him from her fury. Ultimately, since no one knew, and Jacen wasn't saying, the gossip faded to rumor, and finally petered out.</p><p></p><p>At last, Gavien was on his last bed, and told his son how proud she'd made him, and of the one thing in his life that he regretted; he'd given up on trying to be a Musketeer. In fact, the humiliation of failing the test was what convinced him to stop swinging swords and start making them. He confided in Jacen that he thought he might actually be better than he had been; even good enough to join. The news was a shock to Jacen, who had thought of himself only as a skilled amateur at best. He had no idea how skilled he'd become...especially when using his father's old sabre, a rare work of beauty with a heartstone set into the guardpiece.</p><p></p><p>Jacen sold the smithy not long after Gavien passed. He kept his dueling sword...as fine a piece of work as she'd ever seen...and bought passage to the great city of the king, where the Musketeers commanders were located. He made her petition, bested the challenges, passed the tests...long and hard as some were. And so the son of an old soldier who had wished for him to go where he himself hadn't been able to succeeded, and became a Musketeer. A fledgeling as it were, just out of training and eager to bring his name and his family's honor through his deeds.</p><p></p><p><strong>XP Log</strong></p><p>4,500 (start), -160 (legendary item)[/SBLOCK]</p></blockquote><p></p>
