Jamril Hawken

== Early Life ==
After getting into an intense fight with his parents, Jamril ran away from home and never looked back. For several years, he bounced from town to town, eventually settling down in the streets of Phandalin. It was here that he was found and recruited by a local chapter of the Theives' Guild and trained to be a professional rogue.
== Meeting Jeis ==
One day, he was on his way to work a job for the guild, when he came across a young girl (a 6 year old Jeis) being cornered by an angry merchant. The girl looked like she was terrified but was putting on a brave face. He listened in, learning that she had attempted to steal food from the merchant's booth. He took pity on the girl, and decided to step in, pretending to be her older brother. During the confusion, he managed to steal the food the girl had been eying, and he gave it to her with a tip to be more careful. He went on his way, only to realize he was being followed by the child, who demanded that he teach her how to be a successful thief. While initially off-put, he admired the kid's tenacity. And admittedly, he realized that she might have some potential. He agreed to take her under his wing, and from that moment on, the two became inseparable. They generally stuck to the story that they were siblings, though not many people questioned it. Over the years, the story became fact. They were family.
== A Job Gone Awry ==
The two ended up forming a bond to rival that of blood siblings. They were inseparable. Jamril introduced Jeis to the Theives' Guild, which is how they made their living and got themselves off the streets most nights. They lived and worked together for the next seven years, Jamril taking a young Jeis under his wing and caring for her like a younger sister. That was until one night, they ran into trouble on a job. They were breaking into a home, when the owner was unexpectedly armed with a crossbow. After a small scuffle, Jeis grabbed the crossbow and threatened the owner as to protect Jamril. She fired off a shot but unintentionally hit Jamril in the stomach. This panicked the owner, allowing the two to escape. The two spent the night together, not suspecting it was any more than a normal arrow wound, but neither realized the arrow was poison-coated. Jamril died in his sleep that night.
== Fun Facts ==
* Jeis took her last name, Hawken, from Jamril once he died.
* Jamril was a well known poker player in many small coastal towns, including Phandalin.
