Persona

Mid-Late 14th Century

Son of a Scottish Highland Lady and English Lord, his father married his mother before his birth creating an odd pre-Scottish Independence alliance between his mother's Scottish family located near Loche Awe and his father's English family located in York. After the death of his father and inheritance, his time rotates between his English and Scottish families, using his father's previous standings with the guilds and merchants of York to foster trade with the south-western Highlands of Scotland.

Jok can be found on campaign in France with the English armies when requested, and in Italy or the territories of the HRE with a mercenary company when funds are tight. Though he finds the most joy in leading Scottish and English alike along the Marches in counter-raids against reivers, in hopes to maintain Scottish independence.
