Jon

Jon is a human ranger and a member of Harpy's Claw. He is a devout hunter and will do anything in the name of the hunt. He is also the newest member of the party and joined after the "death" of Vanti and Agememnon's departure. He is moderately religious but not particularly committed to any god, worshiping Artemis, Jupiter and previously making a sacrifice to Poseidon while fishing) at the same time. He is a god in the forest and the shore and is extremely capable with his bow.

Jon is also the founder of the Jon Scouts a pseudo-militia in Byzantios made up of denizens of the slums that he founded without permission of the town or the rest of the party. Most people see it as a threat to Jupiter worship as some think that they are above the law and may worship foreign gods such as the Huntress. This organization has prompted others to think of establishing a more official presence of law in the city under the authority of the Church of Jupiter and/or Justinian, the current mayor.

## Description

### Appearance

Jon has brown hair and brown eyes, and is described as visually similar to the character Robin Hood in the Remean play Shrek. He mostly wears a green outfit with a green hat, and also has a longbow and javelin on his back. He is also commented by various NPC's to look quite dirty and grimy, which eventually led to him taking a bath in Byzantios and the innkeeper Justinian then ironically naming him "Mr. Clean."

The now deceased Ventus would often comment on his smell to Lucan.

### Personality

Jon is very talkative and impulsive, which can sometimes put him in bad situations. This could be seen when he broke into a suicide cultists house in Byzantios without backup leading to him almost dying and Quintus almost dying trying to save him. He is also not afraid to talk to anybody. In addition, he will do anything for the hunt, which can lead him to do very strange things, called "Nickery". His "Nickery" has also led the party to informally know him as the "schemer" in the group as he tries to talk his way out of situations that are inevitably going to lead to a fight.

His "Nickery" includes things like stealing Quintus' blood while he sleeps because a Neptune worshiper told him that a Jupiter follower's blood is good fish bait. He has also attempted to poison Queen Olympias, which resulted in him being restrained by several guards and force fed poisoned wine. This event was so bad that Jupiter was forced to intervene and reset the timeline.

Jon is also an avid wrestler as he once spent nearly an entire fight in a pit fighting bugbears bare-handed while the rest of the party and bugbears watched.

## Biography

### Background

Not much concrete information is known about this strange character's background as he has changed his origins multiple times while talking to the party over their adventures. It is unknown if he is hiding something in his past he does not want others to know about or if he has forgotten and is just talking off the top of his head.

Prior to joining the Harpy's Claw he worked for Reme in an unknown capacity.

It is assumed that he was raised in the forested wilderness somewhere in Gaulia as he (somehow) has great skills in tracking and hunting while in the woods and a Gaulic accent. Given his low intelligence (INT score) and his continued confusion of various names of both places and people, which he blames on people misunderstanding his accent, it can be assumed that he received no formal education and has extremely little understanding of current world politics.

## Character Information

### Quests

Jon is a sometimes mercenary, sometimes explorer, sometimes hunter. Due to his forgetfulness he infact is almost constantly exploring unknown lands! He was hired as a mercenary by the Remans in a war with a tribe to the south, and afterward, hearing of the party's work went to join up with them. Despite explaining this to the party, they believe him to have no primary motivation due to his thick accent. He remains with the harpies claw because they are his comrades and it affords him the opportunity to hunt, fish, fight, and have a comfortable source of income. It is unknown whether he was actually ordered by the emperor to work with the harpy's claw or if this was a misunderstanding on his part.
