Biography (I'm sorry, I'm a horrible writer): - Jellal was born and raised in Kaldonia. His mother died during childbirth, to a boy, and Jellal's only brother, Cyton, leaving Jellal and his brother with their father, a skilled swordsman, and blacksmith. However, after an accident on the job, Jellal's father had badly wounded his leg, and over time it grew infected. During these days, Jellal and Cyton made an oath to protect eachother should the infection kill their father. Thankfully the infection stayed in his leg, but in order to avoid it spreading, the leg was amputated, leaving their father unable to continue his job Jellal and Cyton tried to continue their father's work without him, and still trained with their blades, something that their father could no longer do due to his amputated leg, but they could not keep up, and slowly the family lost all of their money, focring them to sell their small house, and live on the streets, eating off of what small money they made, due to this, Jellal grew used to being hungry, and no matter what insisted that his father and brother always take more food than he did. Despite all efforts, Cyton grew sick, and without money for treatment, he passed away. Jellal decended into depression, after losing his mother, but gaining a best friend, that also was taken from him. Years later, Jellal and his father managed to make money, though small it was, it was enough to live off of, letting them rent rooms in some incredibly cheap and low quality inns, and still have enough for food. Jellal's father, who now had fashioned a wooden leg to replace the one he had lost, continued to train Jellal, now aged 14, in swordsmanship, noting that Jellal was unlike any swordsman he had ever seen, being incredibly light on his feet, and matched even himself, despite Jellal being only 14 and having much to learn.
Once Jellal was old enough, he bid farewell to his father, and set off on a journey, promising to himself, that he would protect his family and his friends, and make enough money so that his father would be able to live in luxary in his elder years.
(Ok yes, I did try to keep the bio as close to the original as possible and keep a similar story, because I loved the story so much)
What are they like? (personality): - Jellal has a very isolated personality, due to fear of losing his friends, so he rarely makes any, but cares for them very much, even putting his life on the line in order to help them, with little or no hesitation, due to the promise he made himself. He rarely makes relationships with others and will isolate himself from others. He hates to be interrupted, especially while concentrating on something. He is an agressive person, often responding with violence without even realising it, and can cause other people around him to become annoyed and starts fights due to this. He likes to drink, and can be found in inns and bars frequently, and despite drinking a lot, very rarely gets drunk.
What are their ambitions?: - Jellal made a promise with his brother when they were young, to protect eachother, after his brother passed away, Jellal swore to himself that he would protect his family, no matter what, and make enough money to let his father live an enriched life in his eldarly years.
Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - Jellal's strengths involve his mastery with a sword, his observational skills, and his speed and agility. His weaknesses involve his lack of trust in others, his impatience, and his tendency to cause hassle with other people.
Give us a description of how they look?: - Jellal is a young man, with brown hair, and brown eyes. He has light skin with a slight tan. He has a white shirt under his swordsman's longcoat, which is black in colour and has a steel shoulderpad on the right arm. He wears black trousers and boots.
(When the new skin format comes out, my skin will match the description, as I have to have the steel shoulderpad on both arms.)
Also, little side note here. There isn't really any lore on The Fringe, or at least that I could find, and me and my friends spent a LONG time reading up stuff for our own bios. I just peiced together what I knew and since Kaldonia is a capital city, I assumed there would be a blacksmith. If I am wrong about this, I ask that the wiki be cleaned up a bit, at least so newcomers can find what they need without having to search for hours, only to find very little.
