Jegred Volkov's page

Jegred Volkov was born in Rostland to an immigrant mother from the far off land of Mwangi. Little is known about Rashla Volkov except she one day appeared in town, quite pregnant. Jegred was born a fairly normal lad, though his dark skin set him apart from the other boys. Rashla never told him who his father was, but as he grew older, he began to show more and more abnormal traits. At the age of six, his horns began to protrude from his hair, and his serpent-like eyes were no longer thought of as a genetic anomaly. During his early life, townspeople began to fear Rashla, accusing her of practicing dark magics, and cursing the whole town. They eventually burned her at the stake, and would have killed Jegred, had Rashla not cast a spell of invisibility on him and made him run into the forest.

Thankfully, his mother had prepared him well for this trial and taught him many things about surviving in the wild. He spent nearly 8 more years in almost total isolation, only surrounded by the beasts. He felt a great connection to the scaly-tyrants in the forest, and raised a spinosaurus from the egg, with the beast eventually growing into his companion. Side by side with his faithful pet Sicarius, Jegred grew to enjoy his life in the woods. He recognized the cycle of life, and even though he hunted to survive, he always thanked the animal spirits after he killed.

At 14, Jegred stumbled upon a town near New Stetven. He was almost killed like a predator who hunted the town's livestock, but mercifully, the town leader, Beorn Wildstaff recognized a fellow spirit and took him in under the wing. Jegred grew to trust some of the townsfolk, who, despite their initial shock and horror at his physical appearance and choice of companion, grew to accept Jegred, or at least tolerate his peculiarities.

Companions:
Beorn Wildstaff: Town leader and elder of Tarvin's Point. He is a fellow druid, and a mentor and father figure to Jegred. He perhaps understands the dark-skinned Tiefling the best, but he was also the one who encouraged Jegred to seek his fortune outside of Tarvin's Point.

Cratchus Stiffer: Charismatic inquisitor who rallied the town's people against Rashla. He does not know what happened to Jegred, but he is determined to put an end to Rashla's line. He is overly zealous, and views all Tieflings as abominations who must be slaughtered.

Erant Tecker: The closest thing Jegred has to an age-appropiate friend. He is a half-elf wizard currently studying in New Stetven. Adopted by a well-off family in Tarvin's Point, he still faced persecution because of his non-human ancestery and his strange interest in the arcane. Despite a 4 year age difference, Erant's elven heritage allowed the boys to advance into manhood together.

Appearance and Personality:

Image: Jegred Volkov

Jegred is an attractive tiefling, if somewhat exotic looking. He isn't particularly adept socially, due to his life in the woods at an early age, and the persecution he has faced. He has pitch black skin, and snake-like eyes, and his head is crowned with horns. On his back is a curved greatsword, and he is clad in a suit of black-dragonscale. He is rarely without his spinosaurus Sicarius.
Jegred is slow to trust any humanoids, preferring mostly the company of animals who do not judge his fierce exterior. Jegred is gruff and quick to anger, but loyal once a person has earned his trust.
