AwesoomeJ

**Jespar Alexander Yolcotl** (IGN: AwesoomeJ) is a Vul entrepreneur and founder of the Vulperium Oceanic Steamer Company.

## History

Many years ago, a small group of Vulpurs gathered together in a small corner of Northern Rathnir, away from the wars and events of the other kingdoms, they thrived alone and away from prying eyes. Their village never grew very big, and they all stayed close together in tents and huts, as this small group thrived, a few children were born in this encampment. One of those children was Jespar.

### Early Life

Jespar was like many other children, naive, curious, and adventurous. He grew to like writing, as he would explore, he would catalog any new thing he discovered in a small journal. He didn't make friends with the other children in the group as he would stay mostly with the adults or alone in the woods. He would always get lost while exploring, which honed his hunting and survival skills to stay safe during the night.

#### Bandit Attack

When Jespar was 16 a group of bandits ransacked his home, they killed everyone in his village. Jespar put up a fight and escaped and ran as far as he could with only a few belongings and his clothes.

#### Second Bandit Encounter

Midway through his journey to Vulpinia, he ran into a small group of bandits. They were the same group of bandits that had destroyed his home. Filled with rage he attacked the leader. He took them by surprise and fell 3 of them before they reacted. The leader recognized him and fought him head-on. After a grueling battle, Jespar was victorious but covered in wounds. He took up camp in their old base. He sat down tending to his wounds and read the leader's journals. The bandits had gone through tough times after they took down his homeland and had lost many members to starvation and cold, they had just sat down that night to talk about disbanding before Jespar attacked. He felt no regret for his actions though and continued his journey.

### Arrival at Sparport

Jespar arrived in Sparport, a very friendly-looking city with people who looked like him. He was excited for the first time in many years he would once again be with people who looked like him. Except, they looked a little different, smaller, foxier, nimbler, but he didn't really care. For the first few weeks, Jespar lived at the inn, going out every day to the mines to find rare metals and earn some money. After a while, he earned enough to buy his own house, of course, one that needed some renovations.

#### Postal Work

After a while of setting himself up in Sparport, he took up some jobs that needed to be filled. Jespar became the Chief of Post, delivering mail and packages around town and to other cities, he liked this job and began to become good friends with the other citizens of Sparport. Eventually, as deliveries began to come from farther and farther away, Jespar traveled farther and farther to complete his duties. He got tired of so much traveling and the constant danger that came with traveling. It made him think, 'was there a faster more efficient way?'

#### Planning the Shibrock Wedding

One day while organizing mail. Brock came to Jespar with a favor. Brock and his significant other Shib had been engaged for a while but the wedding hadn't moved on. Food was being made and Drinks were brewed but no one had decorated for it. Jespar wholeheartedly agreed to help with the process.

It didn't take long for Jespar to take control of the plans, he was on top of everything, he was decorating the Hall, making sure resources were collected, checking in on the state of confections and drinks, writing vows, and making sure everyone knew what to do when that day rolled around. It was going to be a grand wedding! One that the entirety of Eldham was invited to, it had to be perfect not just for the couple but because Jespar had invested his time and energy into it, and he wasn't going to let anything disturb that special day.

#### Day of the Wedding

The day of the Shibrock wedding was a day of celebration, while there were some bumps in the road, most of it went according to plan. Jespar was full of pride, he loved planning it out, watching something that he put all his heart into becoming something of importance was very fulfilling, soon after the Shibrock wedding, many people came to him with events and future weddings they wanted him to plan, he agreed to all of them and began to work on each one.

### Entrepreneurial Career

During a dreary and rainy day, Jespar was going through the mail that had been delivered to Sparport. He was finishing up for the day when a late letter arrived, slightly annoyed he grabbed it and began opening it. The letter was heavy and full of many papers, it was worn down and made out of heavy-duty material and was outlined with a golden material. It felt special and as he went through the contents something caught his eye. It was for Brock from an unknown sender, it contained blueprints and instructions for machinery and buildings he had never seen before. It contained a hastily scribbled note that was almost unreadable, he could only make out a couple of words, about Brock and the importance of these inventions. He hesitated, Brock was his friend and he didn't want to double-cross him, but he was also married to Shib. Brock was very open and I bet he would tell her about this. She was one of the wealthiest people he knew and someone who already had so much knowledge and so many resources. It wasn't fair that they should continue to gain more and profit, it was his turn now. Fueled by spite, he sat down and began studying the blueprints. Days passed as he studied learning more and coming up with plans of his own. After weeks, he had a plan. He rushed out of the postal office to begin his genius creation.

#### Founding of the Vulperium Oceanic Steamer Company

His first order of business was purchasing a building. He bought a small new office building built in the governmental district of Sparport and he began creating his new Marine offices HQ for his company. The Vulperium Oceanic Steamer Company was born. After the furniture was set up and office materials were supplied Jespar rushed outside of the city walls and began to acquire land for his new Shipyard, With the help of many people such as Blake, Brock, and Spider, the land was cleared, materials were gathered and construction began on the gantry, drydock, and pumphouse. After many months of work, construction on the company's first ship, the VSS BeastlyBrock, began. Jespar had also been able to make lots of money from a recent gold rush in the area and had bought himself a new very large mansion. Jespar was excited. He could finally prove that what he was doing was worth it, not only to the public but to himself. Yet, he couldn't shake the feeling that something bad was going to happen.

#### Loss of Blake

As construction continued, Jespar had invited Blake one of his close friends to view the current project of the liner. As the tour commenced, Jespar and Blake had stepped onto the ship. But without warning critical supports had failed causing the ship to slide out of the gantry in an incomplete state. The ship eventually sank, taking Blake with it. Jespar had barely survived and had to be dragged out of the water.

After the disaster, Jespar had locked himself away in his house. He felt sick with guilt and sadness, wishing to be able to repeat that night and change what had happened. He had lost one of his best friends and all he could do was lay in his bed. Occasionally he would write letters trying to explain to others the events of the evening, none were sent.

After a while, Jespar became more like himself and returned to his normal day-to-day activities. Jespar now avoids creating close friendships after losing Blake and continuously self-sabotages any possible future friendships. Many people view him as a cold uncaring person, but a handful of people refuse to leave him alone. He occasionally thinks about his dear friend and can be found looking out to the Sound on clear calm nights.

#### Present Day

Jespar currently focuses on building ships for his nation, solely focused on luxury and safety, he will spend months pouring over every little detail.

He also now spends most of his time with his family at their residence in Vetervul.
