Jimmy Crowder

Wife, Ava Crowder (Deceased)

## Early life

Jimmy Crowder was born to Ellie may and Arlo crowder. Arlo was a Black smith in Alfenheim and Ellie may helped out by offering her services as a maid to those who could afford one. They lived a quiet life. They never struggled for food, water, or housing, but they were never rich. Its safe to say the lived comfortably out of the sight of most people. Young Jimmy wanted to be a Blacksmith like his Father, but unfortunately he had his mothers Genes. He never quite filled in muscle wise. He did also take his mothers eye for details. This helped him out tremendously in his later career. It was around the age of 16 that he decided to dedicate his life to the Alfenheim guard. It was also around the Age of 16 that he met Ava. Those two would go on to date and eventually marry.

## Alfenheim Guard

When Jimmy was 16 he started training to become a guard. He learned how to shoot a bow in between studying the area around the town and reading up on the latest investigation techniques. He would often fall asleep reading a book or offer his services to local kids to solve minor mysteries. At the age of 17 he was permitted to join the City Guard. This occurred after Billy observed one of his many cases. Billy had to confess that Jimmy had a knack and a passion for investigation.

## Ephraim and Billy

Jimmy Joined the Guard at the Behest of Billy. He was 2 years younger than Ephraim at the time, which greatly upset the Rookie Ephraim. Jimmy and Ephraim never really understood each other. Jimmy felt a passion towards Guard duty, while Ephraim felt a sense of responsibility towards being a guard. Jimmy Chose to be a guard. Ephraim was forced in his mind.

Possibly due to these ideological differences or possibly due to seemingly random factors Ephraim and Jimmy did not like each other. They would constantly bicker over pointless details. If Jimmy thought the best way to go forward was to talk to the witness first, Ephraim would request to look at the crime scene first. Ephraim had an advantage that Jimmy didn't. Ephraim had Billy on his side.

Jimmy understood that Billy didn't really have choice. Billy and Ephraim were as close to Kin as you could get without actually being Kin. Jimmy tried to not let that get to him, but as Ephraim made more and more Mistakes Jimmy got less and less patient. Jimmy wanted to tell Billy to not give Ephraim any more shots, but Billy didn't listen.

## One Bad Day

Jimmy went to work on the date of May 19th and to his surprise Ephraim wasn't there. Jimmy was kept out of the loop on a lot of the void investigation. Billy decided to make that private to insure that there was minimal leaks of information. Jimmy was excited to be accompanying Billy on the raid of a warehouse down by the docks. He and Billy ran into the warehouse only to discover it was empty and there was a note to Billy saying that he should have stayed out of this. Billy ran to go check on his family. Jimmy went back to the Barracks. Someone had to lead in Billy's absence. It wasn't until 11pm that night that he got the news. Ephraim when he killed Lauren and Jill and burned down Jimmy's house as well. Ava was asleep in the house at the time. It was unclear whether or not she even woke up.

After the fire Jimmy poured all of his soul into being a guard. His life revolved around seeking justice for others. Jimmy knew that justice for him would never come to fruition. So he decided to prevent people from feeling what he felt.

## Wahda Guild Involvement

A few years after this catastrophe occurred Billy started working closely with the Whada guild. Jimmy was unclear as to why. He knew that Tarthurac had a distaste for guards. Or at least had a distaste for him. To Jimmy the Guild only served to humiliate Billy and undermine the guards.

Then it happened. Billy Retired. Jimmy was named captain of the guard. Everything Jimmy worked so hard for had finally come to fruition. He could finally make major changes in Alfenhiem. Jimmy saw this as a dawning of a new era. This Era didn't last long. As Jimmy was replaced without reason by Jill. This moment broke some part of Jimmy.

Jimmy decided to turn his back on the city after this. It makes sense as the City had long sense turned their back to him. The first thing he did was find an old confiscated version of Void and ingest it. He'd hope it'd give him a fabled wish, but instead it granted him the ability to hear a voice in his head. This voice promised to give him what he wanted if he would serve them. Jimmy agreed and started restarting the Void trade. After the list of corrupt guards got leaked Jimmy was arrested and sentenced to 3 months for distribution. Now banned from being a guard he decided to be a Hitman. With his new powers he brags that his victims body will never be found.
