Description
Jimmy is a small thin boy just turned 18. He has a commely apperance and a way with words.

Hes normally wearing his leather armour under his normal clothes which is as common as they get. He could easily blend in in most crowds of people.

Personal History
Jimmy was born and raised by his mother whom, at the time, was a young good looking maid that earned her living by helping sailors and other lowlife to relieve their tension at a small brothel.

At that time Jimmy never realised what his mother meant by that. But when she was beaten to death by an exceptionaly brutal sailor he had to come to terms with life or perish.

At the age of 6 Jimmy had to start to take care of himself. And it wasnt long before he came in contact some other kids in a similar situation. At first it was just a question of surviving. But after some years they slowly got better at what they did.

By the time Jimmy turned 14 he was a pretty good cutpurse. But the amount of money you could get your hands on in this way was never enough. So he and his friend Arthur started making plans to become burglars instead. At first they had problems just getting in to places. But slowly they learned how to do it. When to try and foremost where.

Three weeks ago they overheard a conversation betweene a merchant and a customer. Where the customer would buy a large amount of spice. The transaction would take place the next day so Jimmy and Arthur figured the merchants money chest which the knew where hidden under a floorboard in his kitchen. (They had pilfered some months ago).

In retrospect Jimmy has come to realize that it wasnt by coincidence that they overheard the conversation. When Arthur stepped into the kitchen, all hell broke loose. There where bells ringing and whistles screeming. A moment later Arthur was in the hands of some guards and it was just by chance that Jimmy hadnt entered the building yet.

Arthur was sent away after that and Jimmy realised that he should rethink his career choices. Or at least make a change of sceenery.

Over the Years Jimmy has learnt how to read and write at a local church, and managed to pick up and learn some languages along the way.
