Sergio Jarrett

[Sergio]

Name: Sergio Jarrett
Place of Birth: Serpents Hold
Age: 32

Appearance:
Sergio stands at a bit over 6 feet tall with a lean muscular build that would suit someone for running more than heavy labor. His hair is black and usually tied in the back where it reaches just past his shoulders and his eye are dark blue.  On his arms are various small scars most of them are faded and his face always seems to be clean shaven.

History:
Sergio grew up in the Serpents Hold once he learned how to walk he would frequently venture off into the jungle for hours at a time finding and playing with snakes.  It was such a problem that his parents gave him a knife and a first aid kit to use if he ever got into any real trouble for his third birthday.  When he was around the age of five he started playing with the more dangerous serpents in the area and eventually began dissecting them and gathering their poison which he applied to his knife to kill other local fauna.  He sustained many injuries on his arms between the ages of five and eight and was well known to the healer by the age of six.  Nearing his ninth birthday his father died of old age and not being able to support him his mother sent him off to the continent to live with relatives in Britain where within a few years he lost his accent.

Mainland Years:

At the age of 11 he was sent off by his relatives to find work as an apprentice so he could eventually make a stable living.  He went from apprenticeship to apprenticeship without meeting any real success in any of them with his mediocre crafting skills he eventually settled on working as a skinner for a tanner in Jhelom for a few years until he was 17.  He had gathered enough money to buy a shield and travel for awhile before he would have to find another real job. After two months of traveling and fighting off brigand on the roads he found his way back to Britain where he found work at the docks hauling crates of fish off the boats.  After a year of monotony he finally had enough and left after collecting his pay and chartered a ship to take him to Maginicia but a storm knocked it off course where he landed in Haven and was stuck due to the crew having to do repairs. He ended up working for a local armory supplying leather for armor until he could charter another ship nearly a half a year later to take him anywhere.  The ship he chartered took him back to Jhelom where he took back his old job for another two years.  At the age of nearly 22 he decided to leave again and took up the life of a traveling vagrant traveling up the continent getting rides in fishing vessels in exchange for work eventually making his way back to a drastically changed Haven a year later. A week after arrival he met the Covian army and decided to join up because he had nothing better to do.

Army Years:

After joining the Covian army, Sergio rose to the rank of Junior Guardsman quickly in the span of a month, and into the Scouts two months after that before quickly clawing up the a Regular scout before his half year mark, being promoted by the baron during the anniversary of the Covian liberation. Army life suited him all to well, he'd found something he was good at and was glad to have it.

In his early days Sergio had the bad habit of trying to court various women including some that were behind potential enemy lines, he keeps to this day a box of love letters he's written and received. His bad habit of flirting was eventually tempered through a series of failed attempts at romance as well as loyalty to Cove. While he is no longer a compulsive flirt he will engage in his former behavior around those he feels comfortable with.

Sergio's sense of duty led him to taking a post in the colonies as Coveshire was becoming increasingly calm and relations stabled in the region to a simmer. He honed his skills of tracking and deduction and information gathering in the colonies policing any crime that came about. Upon hearing of the increasing hostilities between cove and vesper and the return of the Baron, he made his way back to cove to rejoin into the main force.

To this day Sergio remembers his rather dubious honor of being the only active duty scout for years, He takes the history of the Scouts seriously including the multiple failures the scouts have suffered and corrupt members. He is determined to ensure the future of the Scouts does not allow for corruption or failure.

Beliefs:

Sergio sees the church as a means to an end. He is not a faithful avatarian but he understands it has it's uses. He can play the role of a faithful servant of the avatar just as well as any role he needs to adopt. He has a fondness for the people of his past and will do his best to protect them.
