==History==
Jayon Theran is a young man, son of a merchant, his father Ithal Theran. He 
was raised in a quite large house in a small community a few miles away 
from Kandor's Capitol, Chachin. His father made his living on selling the 
precious jewelry that is desired in and outside of Kandor, many pieces with 
the snowflake pattern. This made Jayon's living very easy. His father was 
not very caring about his son, and was very often traveling to trade. The 
first years of his life were distinguished by what many would call a 
"boring" life of getting nursed and now and then taught or played with by 
his mother.
His mother was usually busy as well, but gave Jayon more attention than his 
father did. In time, when the young boy had turned 10, his father suddenly 
saw the need of deciding education in his son's life, something he had not 
done very actively before. He hired a mentor to teach the boy mathematics, 
trading and other theoretical things needed for the family business to 
prosper when Jayon's father was gone. He excluded the practice with weapons 
as he did not think that was necessary for a merchant's son. First, his 
father had married a foreign woman from Tarabon who saw no need of that 
kind of education unless her son had matured enough. Secondly they lived 
close to Chachin and thus Trolloc raids were not as many as they were in 
other parts of the land.
Jayon's own dreams were different though. Now and then, he sneaked away to 
watch soldiers of the house practice with their weapons, or even trying to 
practice himself with weapons like daggers. That took a sudden halt when he 
cut a deep gash in his leg and tried to hide it from his father. After that 
incident, his father made his son promise not to try anything of the like 
again. In return, the father promised to add some of the traditional 
borderlander education in his son's life, the teaching of battle, when he 
was old enough. As Jayon turned 13, his father thought his son had reached 
that maturity. In addition to the mentor teaching him theoretical subjects, 
he hired a old, grizzled veteran from the army to teach his son something 
about the sword.
The young boy showed quickly that he was more interested in the learning of 
fighting skills than subjects involving the sitting down at a table and 
writing. He was taught to fight with a sword, how to fight hand-to-hand 
combat and his stamina was increased by many hours of running laps around 
the garden. His wilderness lore and tracking skills were also tuned until 
after 2 or 3 years of much practice he was close to the skill of any 
borderlander when it came to fighting and wilderness lore. His father 
however, noticed that his practice in the theoretical areas had become 
worse and worse. Jayon was now 15 years old, and thanks to his battle 
mentor he had become quite a stubborn boy with much attitude towards his 
parents.
His attitude towards his parents worsened, but his mentor was pleased with 
the progress he had made with the boy, turning him from a milksop and 
mothers boy into something useful, someone that would survive the hardships 
of the borderlands. His sword skill had also increased and he could handle 
the blade pretty well, moving like any borderlander of his age. However, 
his mother complained to his father that he barely recognized him anymore. 
His father also had his issues with his son, when he was home from his 
travels. He made Jayon's mentor leave the estate, which Jayon discovered 
the following morning. Of course, the young man was furious. He refused to 
go to any more of his fathers mentors theoretical classes and could be 
found outside, practicing sword by himself instead of doing what his 
parents wanted him to. He also got used to playing flute on a flute 
provided by him by one of the maids. Flute and Sword was the things he 
practiced now.
Jayon turned 16, and nothing worth mentioning changed in his behavior. He 
had the respect necessary for his parents; when it was needed, but still 
refused to attend to anything else than his solitary sword practice. His 
father changed the mentor for the theoretical classes. Naturally, that did 
not help. Jayon also adopted some of the things natural and usual for 
Kandori men. He got a silver ring for his left ear and sprouted a beard 
quite early. Things escalated when his mother found him "playing" with one 
of the maids during an evening. She called his father home from one of his 
travels and they both had a long talk with him. That did not help, Jayon 
still held the same attitude. His father saw that it made no difference for 
his son what they asked him to do, and so he thought maybe if he 
experienced the hardships of actual physical practice at a place for such 
things, he would gladly come back to them after that. He told his wife 
about this, and she agreed. The next morning, on Jayon's 17th birthday, he 
was told to pack his things as he was leaving for Tar Valon and the White 
Tower to become a recruit.
At first, he was thrilled at the thought. But then, as he thought more of 
it, leaving Kandor was never what he had wanted to. His father held his 
ground though, and soon he was traveling to Tar Valon by wagon. He is 
furious at the thought of having to spend his time in a dirty barrack with 
other people from every nation possible. But at the same time, he is 
thrilled, as he knows the best men with the sword live in the Tower.
He is a tall young man, a body that was first not used to hardship but is 
now trained and has the abilities required to practice and improve more in 
both body and sword skill. He has not begun to shave himself yet, despite 
the dense beard on both chin and above his lips. His left earlobe is 
decorated with a silver ring. He has attitude towards elders and is not 
very respectful. He has no experience in actual battle, despite his 
background, but wants to learn. His skill with the sword is good. He knows 
how to handle it well, how to battle enemies, and is eager to learn more. 
He likes consuming alcohol, he has developed a liking for strong ale during 
his journey to the tower, and also likes simple food. He likes talking with 
women, but likes to be friend more with men than with women.
