Jebediah Arietis-Sanguine

Jebediah Arietis-Sanguine

## Biography

### Early life

Jebediah's early life is one shrouded in mystery. Jebediah was born in Ramskeep, the home of the Arietis family. As a young boy, Jebediah ran away into the wilderness. It is unknown what Jebediah was doing in his life during this time, but as a young man he re-emerged in Braunlande.

Some excerpts can be assumed from how Jebediah speaks. It is believed he survived in forests and woods, narrowly avoiding bandits throughout his childhood. He learned to hunt and gather, ducking in and out of owned territory, whether by Valreach or by other nations.

### Career as a brewer

When Jebediah re-emerged, he did so in the newly established town Braunlande. It is believed he caught the Moist. Jebediah spoke to Bruno Astilor, of House Astilor, and discovered the town was under the Barony of Ludenstadt, a barony owned by Charles Astilor. House Astilor is rival to Jebediah's own Arietis-Sanguine. To hide his history, he began calling himself 'Jebediah Blonut', an alias which he seemed to start to prefer over his noble title.

Jebediah wandered into a large building one day and decided it would be a good brewery. So, Jebediah promptly moved all of his things into there and opened a brewery. Jebediah started only by brewing whiskey, something that seemed to be a personal favorite of his. Eventually, he opened his brewery to more brews, brewing anything from golden mead to health potions. Jebediah seemed to enjoy this.

Jebediah, at one point, purchased some brewing recipes from the Shadow Wizard Money Gang. Unfortunately for Jebediah, it turned out most of these recipes were in fact illegal for him to brew or sell. Now, Jebediah was ninety-five thousand dollars in debt, which would turn out to be a major talking point for him. He also became very desperate, which led to him working for other people.

Dvusi and Jebediah have a special relationship. Jebediah has executed Dvusi using the local guillotine in Braunlande, but also works for him, fishing up resources Dvusi needs. This relationship has turned out to be extremely profitable for Jebediah, resulting in him making quite a bit of money. It is also rumored that Jebediah and Dvusi have a more intimate relationship, but Jebediah refuses to comment on that rumor.

One day while Jebediah was working on brewing his health potions, he was rushed to a castle to tend to Charles Astilor. Knowing Charles through the Sorcery Guild, Jebediah saw the man as less of a rival to his nobility and more as a friend and colleague. He arrived at the castle and, using some of his newest experimental brews, managed to save Charles' life. This event is what allowed Jebediah to see past the familial struggles of the nobility and the power struggle between them, and to instead look at the bigger picture.

### Return to Nobility

Emperor Tyros II and Jebediah's father, Nile Arietis, visited Braunlande one day where they stumbled across Jebediah, who seemingly had forgotten about his noble heritage and was instead giving them free alcohol and very upset about a failed batch of whiskey. Reminded of his noble heritage by his father, Jebediah agreed to return to the family and his brewery became a subsidiary of the Eastern Rim Company.

Shortly after starting his work for Dvusi, Jebediah discovered that he is a really big fan of relics and artifacts. Jebediah began an expedition across the world to find such things, but gave up before he even left Braunlande because he wanted to fish. Instead, he started buying relics from anybody who would give him the time of day. Jebediah also won an artifact, called the Rat Kings Turdice, in a competition hosted by the Worlds Cultural Guild and given to him by Terradore.
