Appearance
Jessern is an unobtrusive figure - broad-shouldered but not imposing, only an inch or so taller than average, with unremarkable features. He favors muted shades, mostly dark blue, under the ever-present jingling chainmail. A lightning bolt token, such as is worn by followers of Heironeous, dangles from a thin chain on his neck.
Personality
Jessern has an easy, calm manner and smiles more often than not. Perhaps unexpectedly for a mercenary, he is also voluble and articulate.
Background:
Jessern is an irreverent, blithely self-confident mercenary whose antics during his youth drove his parents to no end of hair-pulling. His semi-famous aunt Mona had only a little more disciplinary success with her stern lectures. When Jessern defied the Brightshields' tradition of the second child entering the clergy, neither she nor his parents made any attempt to hide their disapproval, and his relationship with his family cooled to remote cordiality over the years.
So it caught Jessern off guard when Mona Brightshield turned up at his door, relaying word of the happenings in Hommlet. A slightly tense conversation revealed that despite his wayward tendancies, the aging cleric had decided Jessern was the appropriate choice, the likeliest amongst the younger Brightshields and the martial acolytes of her church to successfully contest with whatever was stirring in the Temple.
So, wisely swallowing the cheeky impulse to bill his aunt for his time, Jessern agreed to, for once, do his family duty.[/sblock]
Notes[sblock]
I wasn't certain if the admonition against class switching was directed at me, since I'd mentioned my undecidedness in my app, and Hexblade and Duskblade are so very close to being the exact same class. It didn't occur to me until just now that I might have in fact been the target of that statment, so I decided to post the character I'd written up for the sake of expediency. Twisted, if you'd like me to stick with Hexblade, lemme know (explicitly, cause I dumb) and I'll edit his sheet right quick, no prob.
Religion: I figure Jess worships the big H in much the same way some people are Catholic: goes to church three times a year, says prayers rotely, and obeys the tenets of his faith mostly through having an overactive guilty conscience after the fact.
Skills: I took the skill trick and the spread of points in knowledges to represent him as a guy who's hung out with a lot of other mercenaries and heard a ton of crazy stories about just about anything. A scholar-merc, if you will.
Equipment: I might have gone overboard with this. I think it looks saneish to me, about what you'd back for an extended camping trip? I was doomed to overequip the moment I noticed you could get all the ingredients for a shaving kit.
