 **Coat of Arms**

**Jared De Vere** is the eldest son of the late Michel and Charlene De Vere of northern Lordaeron. He has a lengthy military record spanning over a decade, with recognition in chivalry and swordsmanship, and a commendation in leadership . He is educated in history, war time strategy and reconnaissance, and has taken some opportunity to acquire traits in ambassadorship for potential future goals. He has minor political ties to Gilneas and Lordaeron via extended family. He is a sharp dresser and enjoys a good cigar and bourbon, maybe the odd hunting trip or two. He is currently on leave, having returned to his residence in the Barony of Thorns, Avercroft.

## Personality

Jared is not unkind but isn't the most altruistic or pleasant individual. He is a shameless flirt but a gentleman who has an abundance of confidence and exudes that in all manner of ways. He is charming, chivalrous and respectful but certainly enjoys the odd lady or three. He has a strained relationship with some of his siblings, but would sooner find himself jailed in the stocks that see any of them harmed. He's quick, witty, and no stranger to wordy rebuttals if it means making his opposition look uneducated or weak.

Those in the service know him as stoic, sophisticated and charming. Those in his bedroom know him to be passionate, bold, and dominant. He does not do well when faced with opposition unless it is from his superiors, otherwise he is hard pressed to concede. While he would never strike a woman or be violent towards them, he does not have the patience nor desire to endure petty foolishness from anyone, much less a lover.

He has a rather tenacious drive that can and will get on ones nerves, or easily upset an allied family or friend, or even lover. But on the other side of the spectrum, his charm brings his romantic side to the surface at times, and has been known to go the extensive lengths to make a woman swoon. He is of the mind that should someone like him or hate him, his name is remembered. Good, bad, or indifferent. That's what matters.

It should be noted that while Jared is not a physically aggressive man, he takes the word 'no' as a challenge to overcome, regardless of context. He will find a way to get what he wants, and he will push those in his way to submit or stand aside. This is not a man who keeps a mental list of his conquests, he simply doesn't care enough to remember you. When intoxicated, he's reckless, and maybe even destructive.

## Description

Jared is relatively tall, coming to the height of 6'3", with a lean and firm frame. His voice is deep, gravely, and he had a faint Lordaeronian accent. He has short, well coiffed brown hair. His green eyes are vibrant and piercing, maybe even alluring, and his jaw is harsh, square but with a narrowness at his chin. His body is certainly battle-hardened with long-healed deep wounds, faded scars, newer scars too. He also has a few tattoos but they are only visible without clothing.

You will often find him wearing an exceptionally crafted or ornate jacket with stylish pants and boots, with a twin set of daggers at his hip. In the field, he is naturally in something more substantial such as leather armour or a hybrid blend of leather and thin chainmail.

## Biography

His siblings all found their calling, but being the eldest meant he would to be the one to keep his family safe once his parents were gone. Having trained as a boy and squired for a Knight of the Brotherhood, he later joined the Alliance military and has since been stationed abroad, in the northern regions, as well as the Broken Isles.

### Present Day

Stationed in Stormheim, he is on leave, and has returned to his residence in Thorns located in the southeasterly parts of Avercroft. It is a small barony that has a few clustered villages and some farmlands. The manor is well-aged with custom landscaping, exquisite stonework, and dark wood accents. Jared has always had a penchant for the finer things in life. Cigars, bourbon, and women.

## Relationships

While Jared has taken plenty of women as female companion he's never been able to hold onto one long enough for it to matter, mostly of his own destructive doing. He's never cared for or loved anyone or any thing deep enough to pay them or it enough mind. Swift with a sword, swift with his, well, other sword, and swift with his hand to dismiss whichever peasant, commoner, or noble - married or not - he wakes up to in his bed.
