Background:
Third son of a poor freeholder, Jon grew up knowing the farm was not big enough to split between the boys and the land still vacant around the village was only fertile enough to let a man scratch out a living. So it was always apparent that Jon would have to seek out a trade. Nothing interested him much, and many masters wouldn't have taken the infamously headstrong youth on anyway, so it seemed fortuitous circumstance when the local lord required each family to provide a man to fight in a local dispute.
Although constantly resentful of authority, Jon took to the fightingman's life for its satisfyingly physical exercise and the free time it left him when off duty. When the local lord was beaten and his force disbanded, Jon fell in with a small mercenary band. The professional fighters honed his skills and together they travelled the land seeking conflict and making a good wage which was mostly spent on equipment.
Jon left the band when word reached him that his father was ill and the family needed money for healing. He stayed a few months, but somehow home didn't fit him any more. The constant chores wore at his patience. His sense of humor was darker. People often looked sidelong at him after a joke.
He left the farm again, determined to form and lead his own band of fighters. Luck and his personality were against him however. Despite his combat skills he was not suited for command. After picking the losing side in another combat, he is once again alone, getting low on cash, and looking for work.
