Jambles de Marne

Jambles was born in the city of of Dorasterrock during the 2nd republic before the Dandelion War. His family fled the country shortly after the Battle of New Dorasterrock, living as wanderers for some years before finally settling down in Not Venice.

Early Life
Jamie V de Marne, nicknamed Jambles was the son of Dorasterrock merchant named Jamie IV, who belonged to no house and the daughter of a small banker Marie de Marne. Jambles was born sometime between the Trillium and the Allium wars in old Dorasterrock. News of the Battle of New Dorasterrock quickly spread, and when Jamie Sr. heard the news he was quick to take his family and flee the city and country. They ultimately fled just in time, escaping just days before the senate coup and the rise of the 3rd republic.

Jamie and his family traveled the world for many years as refugees and drifters for many years, eventually the elder Jamie. was able to reach some of old contacts in Not Venice and able to finally settle his family down in the city. They lived peaceful lives there for many years, with Jambles' father finding work as a 1st mate on a trading vessal. Sadly on one voyage Jamie Sr. set sail and never returned, leaving a 12 year old Jambles and Marie on there own. Marie would end up taking over as Jambles' only parental figure and finding means to take care herself and her only child. As Jambles grew older and he began to work odd jobs and also get involved with the Not Venetian merchants, dock workers, and pirates. Growing up with Bardonian parents, Jamie is fluent in Bardonian and is a devout Dandelist with his mother instilling the faith of his homeland into him at a young age. Jambles is a fluent speaker of New Soumerian, having grown up in Not Venice for most of his life, but Jambles was also able to pick up a few words and phrases in other languages from passing travelers and merchants. By 15, the now older Jambles had begun working odd jobs around the city becoming involved with many groups around the city including traders, bankers, pirates and others. Once Jambles became 17 he began taking jobs that took him outside city and became responsible for taking care of his mother. Sadly, on one job that took Jambles away for an extended period of time, Marie fell gravely ill and passed while her son was at sea. Jamie was an adult by this time, but his mothers passing still gravely affected the young 19 year old man.

Jambles' goal is to start a successful bar and tavern in Not Venice and to honor his parents memory, and is willing to go to great lengths to reach this goal. Since his father Jamie had no house, Jambles had adopted his mothers family the house de Marne as his own. His bardonian heritage, and his wily personality has earned him the nickname the Goldlion within some circles of Not Venice.
