AwesoomeJ

Jespar Alexander Vulavich (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. There 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 catalogue 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. On his 18th birthday the elder of his village gifted him a bright red bandanna to symbolize is craftiness and courage, he loved this gift and still treasures it dearly.

Bandit Attack
When Jespar was 23 a group of bandits ransacked his home, they killed everyone in his village, Jespar put up a fight and escaped, he ran as far as he could with only a few belongings and his clothes.

Life at Lostesrei
Jespar arrived at Lostesrei, it was a very serious and no nonsense town and many were very harsh to him, the city was tense and he felt unsafe in it's atmosphere, but he had no other choice. He moved in quickly and found a job.

Jespar lived in Lostesrei for a few years working in a small shop. After customers commented on his race asking questions and mentioning the continent of Serrona and the nation of Vulpinia in Eldham, he got curious. He never knew such a place existed or that there were more of his kind. Jespar saw it as an opportunity to fit in somewhere he belonged once again, He packed his bags and left on his long trek back to his homeland.

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 covered in wounds and scars 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, more nimble, But he didn't really care. For the first few weeks Jespar lived at the inn, going out everyday to the mines to find rare metals and earn some money. After while he earned enough to buy his own house, of course one that needed some. . . renovations.

Postal Work
After awhile 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 travelled 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 signifcant other Shib had been engaged for awhile but the wedding hadn't moved on. Food was being made and Drinks brewed but no one had decorated for it. Jespar whole-heartedly 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 gonna be a grand wedding! One that the entirety of Eldham was invited too, 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 was 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 a 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 words, about Brock and the importance of these inventions. He hesitated, Brock was his friend and he didn't want to doublecross 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 richest 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. Fuelled 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 furniture was setup 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 RJ, land was cleared and 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 goldrush 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.

Construction Incident
Near the end of the project, Blake came to visit to see how the construction went. Jespar and Blake talked for many hours, about the future of the company and future ship designs. As the sun went down Blake was getting ready to leave, but Jespar was excited, he wanted to show off the BeastlyBrock to her before she left. Blake was visibly nervous but she came along anyway. They climbed aboard and Jespar began the tour, he showed off the building techniques used, the different decks and the the accommodations he planned to use for when this ship was ready for it's maiden voyage.

After the tour, Jespar and Blake got ready to leave, when suddenly one of the workers shouted, there was a loud snap as the ship suddenly jolted knocking Jespar. Blake, and the other workers on the ship over. As the ship slid into the water, a loud scraping noise was heard. Confusion and panic spread about the ship as it finally settled in the water. But before anyone could catch there breath the ship suddenly listed heavily to starboard. Panic ensued, but Blake sprung into action, yelling orders and getting everyone off. Tug-boats, row boats, fishing vessels, any available crafts were called over as the ship began to sink very quickly. People began jumping into the water and boats began fishing people out of the water, eventually the only two people left on the ship were Jespar and Blake. At this point the ship had leaned over completely on it's side sinking quickly by the head, they were holding on tightly and they could here the metal of the ship creaking and coming apart. They began to fight, each one wanting the other to get out of there. Blake getting annoyed, gave him a condescending smile, which caught Jespar off guard, he didn't know how to react. Then, suddenly Blake pushed him off the ship, the water was shockingly cold, he couldn't breath. The last thing Jespar remembered before passing out was hearing the ship fracture into two pieces.

Aftermath
Jespar had locked himself away in his house after the disaster, he felt sick with guilt and sadness, wishing forever to be able to repeat that night and change what he had did. 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.

After awhile, Jespar became more like himself, and has returned to his normal day to day activities. But he will always avoid anything from that event and refuse to openly comment on that night. If asked how he feels he will almost only respond along the lines of, "It's very unfortunate that it happened." Many people view him as a cold uncaring person, but he can only bring himself to say one simple sentence on the matter without losing his composure. He still thinks about Blake and can be found looking out to the Sound on some nights.

Time Away From Home
After some thought on the matter, Jespar decided to spend some time away from the Vulperium. The only other place he knew well though was Ruddersdam located far to the north in Skjoldrbrodir. He packed up some of his things and left on his vacation.

During his stay, Jespar helped out citizens of Ruddersdam with different projects, he got too know a lot of them much better including the eccentric, somewhat creepy, Rosthorns.
