Personality
As a member of the Sandpoint Militia, Jasper was trained by Shalelu Andosana, but rather than being trained as a traditional fighter or ranger, Jasper took to he teachings of Irori and the monastic traditions of that faith.
Tall, strong, wise, loyal. All of these and more describe Jasper. He is totally devoted to Shalelu and would follow her anywhere. Although quite shy Jasper has a sly sense of humor and is not above the occasional sarcastic comment disguised as "ancient wisdom".
History
Jasper is the younger brother of Sandru Vhiski. Although he doesn't make a big deal of this connection, it is common knowledge in Sandpoint. He goes by his middle name Lind, a custom he adopted upon becomming a monk. He bears a passing resemblance to Sandru, but has inherited none of his brother's charm, being a rather shy man.
Party Role
Jasper is a warrior, his focus is around damaging his opponents and allowing others the opportunity to finish them off. He is not a fighter and lacks the armor and stamina to stand toe to toe with the enemy, but if he can strike unopposed he will be deadly.
As a practitioner of the Snapping Turtle and Panther Styles, Jasper is both difficult to hit and knock over. He is fearsome on offense and difficult to strike on defense.
From a non-combat perspective Jasper is skilled at hunting and foraging. He will serve a vital role in any cross country journey by providing sustenance for the group and helping to find a trail through the wilderness.
