At 32 years of age Jrask stands a lean and muscular 6'6". Head crowned with short curly blond locks. His face lightly tanned and weathered is covered in a scruffy 5 o'clock shadow, with a soul patch under full lips raised in a constant amused smirk. Deep blue eyes regard the world with a piercing Stare. A thin jagged scar descends from the right ear to dimpled chin.
Jrask’s Short term goals are relatively simple.
1st is to serve aboard or command a freebooter ship, preferably fast, and sleek.
2nd to set himself up in the Shackles, where he believes his enemies won’t be able to find him.
3rd is to develop his own Cannon’s for ship based Combat
Long term goals include:
1) Laying his mentor’s memories to rest by returning the mans guns to the Gunworks in Alkenstar.
2) lead an expedition to either Arcadia or Tian Xia
Any officer of the Andoran and Taldor Navy would consider Jrask Cross an Enemy combatant, should they learn of the Chelish naval tattoo on his left shoulder. This tattoo of an anchor over the Asmodian pentagram marks Jrask as a member of the Sea Devils Fleet. A notorious division of his country’s naval forces, known for brutal and barbaric actions against opposing nations ships and private vessels alike.
Although honorably discharged from service by the Chelish Navy. Jrask arranged for that discharge by blackmailing the captain of the last navy vessel that he served aboard. Specifically Cpt. Matthias Schwarz of the HIMS. Kyton Maiden, who will not soon forget or forgive Mr. Cross.
A successful life aboard ship afforded Jrask a very respectable sum of gold. So after extracting himself from the Chelish navy, he decided to try and settle down. He soon found himself engaged to Tanja Dietrich. A delightfully sweet and beautiful lass. The very image of a Chelish noblewoman, little black horns and pointed tail included. Two weeks before the wedding he absconds aboard a ship sailing to Korvosa, abandoning an unknowingly pregnant Tanja, who spent the next six years preparing to hunt down and punish the man who betrayed her and their son.
After leaving Westpool Jrask sailed aboard the “Sea Foam Breeze”, under the command of Captain Alister, a disgraced Gunmarshal from Alkenstar who mentored Jrask in the creation, repair and use of firearms. During those six years, Alisters was constantly hunted by Alkenstar agents, bent on silencing the man and his knowledge of gunsmithing. Those same agents now pursue Jrask as well.
Jrask served in the Chelish navy’s notorious Sea Devils Fleet, however his time was mostly spent crewing supply ships. He would still sail for his country if he had not witnessed atrocities during his time abroad the HIMS. Kyton Maiden. These atrocities provided the leverage he used to escape the Fleet. Should they ever be revealed in any form of court, they would certainly dame Cpt. Matthias Schwarz to hell, literaly.
Jrask believes that he was never good enough for Tanja and that by leaving, spared her from a life of sorrow and regrets. he knows nothing about his son.
Jrask is unaware that Captain Alister was poisoned by Alkenstar agents and that the same men are now after him.
