Varisia

Jasper is a tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 40s with neatly trimmed salt-and-pepper hair and a strong, square jawline. His once-pristine golden armor has been replaced by well-tailored merchant attire, but he still carries himself with the disciplined bearing of a knight. His piercing blue eyes hold both wisdom and warmth, and his movements are deliberate, as though every step and gesture has purpose. A golden key-shaped pin, the symbol of Abadar, adorns his lapel, a quiet testament to his faith.

Jasper is a man of integrity, diplomacy, and quiet strength. He values honesty, fairness, and order, striving to maintain balance in Sandpoint’s commerce and politics. Though kind-hearted, he is not easily intimidated, standing firm in the face of adversity. His sense of humor is subtle but warm, particularly when with Cyrdak. Though he has left his days as a crusader behind, his sense of justice remains sharp, and he will not hesitate to call out corruption.

Born into a minor noble house in Magnimar, Jasper trained as a paladin of Abadar, seeing law and commerce as the pillars of civilization. In his youth, he dedicated himself to protecting trade routes and upholding contracts, but after years of battle, he chose a quieter path, accepting a position overseeing Sandpoint’s Mercantile League. Under his watch, Sandpoint’s businesses have flourished, though his unwavering fairness has earned him enemies—most notably the conservative Scarnetti family, who resent his influence. Jasper’s romance with Cyrdak Drokkus, the flamboyant owner of Sandpoint Theater, has been an open secret for years, much to the dismay of the Scarnettis, who see it as scandalous. Despite their attempts to drive him back to Magnimar, Jasper remains steadfast, knowing that Sandpoint is his home.
