## Appearance

Jay is a woodland elf of small stature, compared to the rest of their family. They have tan skin, and few freckles on their arms and legs. Jay has a rather human appearance, you can only tell that their an elf because of their ears. They have a lean body mottled with many burn scars from the start of their brewing. Their face is normal, but if you look closely, you can see that their features are more sharp than others, and how fierce their emerald eyes are. Jay is seen wearing comfortable pants and a sweater or turtleneck- mostly to protect themselves from the Falsorian Fireball or any other strong brew that they are making. they keep their hair tied back in a short knot on work days, and let it flow down to their shoulders on days of leisure.

## Personality

Jay is a very stubborn person. Often times they don't even know when to back down; this results in some lost goods and money. They are good hearted, always wanting what's best for their family and friends. On rare occasions, they can be a bit pissy and sassy, but they often snap out of it soon. Jay loves the things they can reach out and touch; friends, family, riches, anything tangible. Though they always seem as a materialistic person, they are sometimes caught daydreaming about what would happen if they could leave the responsibility behind.

## Biography

### Early Life

Jay was a bard before they ever owned anything. They spent their days wandering the various towns and woods they somehow managed to show up to. They lived on the money from small gigs they did in bars, and didn't exactly have enough money to stay in inns; so they camped. During one gig in a particular rowdy bar, they met Enfer. Enfer was blackout drunk, and Jay still does not know why they showed up at the bar and why Enfer was there. Seeing how pitiful Enfer looked, Jay decided to take them home. When the pair showed up at Jays home, a ratty tent with a barrel and a fire, Enfer almost immediately passed out. The morning after, the pair decided to stick together, seeing as how they had not killed each other. Since then, the two had been travelling together.

### Lovoso

Some years of travelling brought Jay down immensely. They could not scrounge up enough money to support their lifestyle and decided to find a place to settle down. After a year or so, they ended up in Lovoso; a town being built after its residents were forced to relocate. This was the perfect place for Enfer and Jay, so they decided that instead of doing gigs at various taverns, they would own one. They built the tavern from the ground up, and are very proud at how it turned out. Lovoso Tavern Inn Grill and Other Delicacies was finished swiftly, and it soon became the prize possession of Jay.

### Adoption

Midway through the building of Jays tavern, while they were ambling along the marketplace, they found Athelric Summergrove. He approached them about adoption and becoming a Baron of Mikligard, and they accepted. When Jay and Altheric were supposed to meet and discuss the terms of the adoption, they brought Enfer along too. Enfer ended up getting adopted as well, and they both assumed positions in the Summergrove family.

Jay can be seen at any time in Summergrove or Lovoso, as they are both equally Jay's homes. If they are in Lovoso, you might not see them as much; they are most likely cooking up a new concoction to add to the bar. Life is good at the bustling tavern they run with their sibling, and they would not trade it for the world. On the opposite hand, in Summergrove you can find them gathering materials for projects in Mikligard. A more serious and regal version of Jay is seen in Mikligard, while the goofy, clumsy Jay is reserved for their tavern.
