About Jack Homini

Tower Shield Specialist [Fighter]: 1

Raised among a family of renowned Taldoran arcanists, Jack showed no special talent, or even any innate ability, to harness magical energies.

Late in his youth, he managed to briefly grasp the concept of what magic 'is', but still lacked the power to maintain it or control it. His family disgraced, they *encouraged* him to leave his hometown and seek his fortunes elsewhere.

Taking what little entitlements he was given, he had found himself a niche as a decent caravan guard. It's was a harder life than he was used to, but he managed to make it a living. Until he heard of a wizard in Numeria who might be able to help. He ventured on to Numeria, hoping Khonnir Baine would take him on as an apprentice. He was given a brief chance to learn under the wizard but failed to learn from him arcane mysteries. He did find comfort in the strange machinations that the wizard studied, but his interest was not enough to inspire the wizard to keep him on, and he once again turned back to a life of caravan guard.

Jack likes to think of himself as a decent person, who takes the training of someone who should have become a great mage and instead has to live a life of the common person. His interest will always be in magic and what it can do, but he has accepted that he is not capable of mastering it.

Notes!

Khonnir Baine ancient history:

Khonnir Baine used to be a member of the Technic League, even though he knew it was of questionable moral standings. An incident involving a young Kellid girl, caused him to flee taking the girl with him. He changed his name and traveled in disguise with her for a couple of years around Numeria. He eventually settled in Torch adopting the girl and naming her Val. As a gifted wizard and intellectual he is elected to the town council.

Jack Homini extra knowledge:

You are several years older than Val and Lazur, and when you worked with Khonnir he was fairly new in town, just establishing his tavern and workshop. He had high hopes for the magic to grab on to you, but it never seemed to click in you. Your help in actually building the establishment was greatly appreciated and he calls you a true friend and still hopes that your magical talents will awaken someday.
