Jakob Phillomon

Jakob 'Jake' Phillomon is a constable and a member of the Airedale Constabulary. He perfectly fits the term of a 'nondescript' person, both in appearance and personality, though perhaps his most remarkable feature is his strong sense of justice. Other than that, he can be considered a simple minded constable. He doesn't ask questions unless they are important, and he tends to avoid getting involved in grand events unless the lives of the common people are on the line.
== History ==
Jakob was born around 1834 to a middle-class family involved in the mining industry in southern Atraca. He had a decent childhood, and a fairly good education. During his young adulthood, he met a young woman named Cecil Jenkins and the two fell in love. They married around 1855, and had a child in 1858 named Abraham Phillomon. Jakob's peaceful life eventually changed in 1867, however, when the kingdom of Tsavania declared war on Atraca after disputes over territories in the north. Bearing intense loyalty to his homeland, he volunteered to join Atraca's miltary forces and fight against the Tsavanians.
==== The Northern War of 1867 ====
Jakob fought hard in the war, doing whatever was asked of him without question and eventually rising to the rank of Sergeant. He saw several terrible things during the war, mostly the viciousness of frontline combat. But what left him the most unnerved were those quiet, cold nights. Hearing the distant cries of unnatural things, or hearing the enemy (or allies) shouting and screaming as a monstrous being attacked them. Despite all the adversities he faced during the war, he thankfully came out of it unscathed.
==== After the War ====
When the war finally ended months later, he returned to find that he couldn't land a solid job due to his lack of higher education. He began to work smaller part-time jobs in a general store to maintain both his son and his education, and prepare for the future birth of his daughter. Being unable to pay bills, though, and concerned for the future of his family, he eventually joined the local constabulary. While at first he didn't enjoy the job, it eventually grew on him. Keeping the peace for local townsfolk suited him just fine. Soon enough, however, he would find himself being transfered far away from his home to the town of Airedale on Grimtham Isle.
