Character

General

Jethro Wright, a man typically seen roaming around Ul'dah, a homeless brawler known for his speed, along with his strength. While he rarely fights when it can be avoided, the man typically protects others, keeping them out of danger, while tossing himself in the fray, not afraid to exchange blows with his enemies. One though, who is known for his kindness amongst the homeless. Jethro himself has no place currently to live, typically sleeping on the streets, or on the outskirts, of Ul'dah. The gil he makes from adventuring, helping others, and even stealing small amounts from the rich, enough to not go noticed, he uses to supply other refugees and homeless with food to get through the nights. While the man is helpful, he typically is rather awkward when it comes to social situations. Typically tending to keep to himself, he appreciates conversations when they happen, though the lack of him talking with others shows. Only recently has the man found himself leaving Ul'dah, and exploring Eorzea alone, or with friends.

While people tend to call the man a hero, or generally a nice person, he doesn't view himself as such, mostly due to the fact some of the ways he makes gil, the biggest one mostly being stealing, is unorthodox, and shouldn't be praised for such. Though, while being a thief at times, his intentions always are for good, though in public situations, or with new people, he wouldn't dare bring such a fact up. Jethro has a small arsenal of weapons, typically choosing to use his fists though, as he rarely will go to kill. He possesses fist weapons with spikes on the end, along with knives, typically hidden under his attire. While he rarely uses his knives, he keeps them on him in bad situations where his spiked fist weapons would otherwise be unavailable. He speaks with a medium accent, his voice rather deep.

Appearance

An attire that rarely changes, the man isn't one for fashion, nor the gil for it. He possesses auburn hair with dark green eyes, typically his hair in the way of his left eye to some degree. His face gives off a rather rugged look, a decent amount of cuts and scars typically down his neck. The most noticable scar he has would be on his right cheek, going all the way down to his neck, a wound received from one of his first fights. He has only one tattoo, one on the right side of his face near the scar, the tattoo has various markings and tribal symbols, one that him and his sister possess.

The man's figure is well built, not lacking in the muscle department, mostly due to constantly training, and the constant fight for others to make gil. He is rarely seen in new outfits. His primary- and favorite- one, has a black scarf around his neck, covering the majority of his scars, along with him occasionaly using it, especially during the night, covering his mouth and nose up. The outfit has many complex designs on pieces on it, along with a rather large satchel on the back of his outfit. The outfit he wears is thin, no armor could be found on him, typically relying on his speed, or strength, to get him out of what trouble he gets in.

Personality

Rather calm and collected, the man is a kind-hearted fighter willing to put his life on the line for strangers, a simple desire to help others when needed. A simple man, who doesn't stand out, and knows it, and is rather glad by the fact in a world of people who do. Rarely sarcastic, though the times when he would be would be rather obvious, always doing his best to not give mixed signals to the people he's speaking with.

While he enjoys conversation, the man is plagued by inexperience, a huge difference to speaking shortly to a few homeless, to long conversations with others, typically finding himself out of things to speak of, or not even sure on how to speak to certain people, though tries his best, and doesn't hide his inexperience when things get awkward.

Combat

Speed and strength, the two things the man relies on more then anything. While strong, he is prone to injuries, as he's never taken many blows, or blade wounds before, and the blade wounds that hit him, generally are fatal, leaving him lucky to survive. His strength relies on his determination, his will and strength to fight through injuries, attacking in fast succession, rarely relenting up if he has an advantage. His weaknesses, would certainly be magic, something that tears through him easily, as he has little to no defense against it. He is also blinded by his fighting, typically causing himself to bleed out while fighting, instead of pulling back and resting, making him more and more vulnerable to bleeding out, though helps him in a way, to finish his fight. Jethro rarely fights to kill, typically knocking out his enemies if he can, though he is not afraid of stabbing them with his fist weapons a few times if he has to.

His Sister - A ghost in the past, someone he never got to know, they both stuck together when they were young, for as early as he could remember, the two homeless, doing their best to survive together. Around the age of ten, once Jethro started getting into a gang that helped other homeless, his sister vanished, whether kidnapped, ran away, he never knew, and did his best to find her, but to no avail.

History/Timeline

The man is a rather bland person, something people can easily notice from him. His past isn't much different then him. Jethro Wright grew up on the streets on Ul'dah, living with the other homeless there for as long as he can remember. In his teens, he joined a gang, one who was willing to fight for the people, willing to help the homeless. That is where he learned how to brawl and steal, how to survive, him and his gang grew up together, and helped the homeless of Ul'dah. Once he was twenty-one, though, the gang he ran with, a group of seven at the time, started to get greedy during their missions, keeping the gil they made for themselves, not helping the others. Jethro wasn't amused by this, and wanted out. And thats what he did, he left the group, and started to work alone to help the homeless. He hasn't seen his old rag-tag gang since, assuming they killed eachother out of their own greed.
