Ja'far

Ja'far was raised beneath the City of Southreach in tunnels and caverns populated by the long believed extinct Yuan-ti. His upbringing was brutal and violent. His parents, (both spies and assassins themselves) were tasked with producing a child and training it to follow in their footsteps. Ja'far has undergone intense combat training and torture to desensitise him to pain, (in case he was ever captured) and as his Mother would say, "The best way to learn how to cause pain is to experience it yourself." Because of this he is covered in small scars, the most noticeable being right under his green eye.

Despite his upbringing, Ja'far has somehow managed to see the good in the world and in people. After being tasked with spying on the Order of the Lillypad, Ja'far decided to risk finally escaping his life, and approached them to ask for protection and a place in the order so that he might become Knight himself one day.

Ja'far does not know his birth date and has never celebrated a birthday, it was not considered important to his training. His parents do not love each other or their son, love is considered weak, though they are both devoted to their religion and their home.
