Jaxik

Hobgoblin Fighter (Battlemaster) Lvl 3


History

Jaxik is a soldier born of soldiers. In fact, his family's mercenary band has worked alongside the Flaming Fists of Baldur's Gate for so long, they barely consider themselves hobgoblins anymore. His father, general of the band, lives in a mansion fit for any noble human. They are civilized, respected, feared.

Jaxik has never wanted for much of anything. He grew up pampered, but despite his family's wealth and prestige, it was still expected that he would take up arms and join the mercenary company when he was of age. To this end, he was sent to a war college to learn the deepest of martial secrets.

During a skirmish with Amn, Jaxik's mercenary band was defeated and several of their number taken prisoner, his mother among them. Now Jaxik strikes out on his own to raise her ransom. Perhaps this treasure map that he's come upon might help, if he can persuade any others to join him on that quest.

Description

Jaxik looks like a hobgoblin. To most observers, there's not any real difference between him and any of his other mercenaries. He fights like a soldier, which is to say he supports his fellow combatants, imposing his shield, sword, or even body to defend the line and bring victory.
