Jonas Witherfield
Alias: The Rat Witch
Gender: Male
Age: 35
Race: Hexblood
Personality: Crude, Insensitive, Uncouth, Mean, and Direct.
Alignment: Neutral
Nationality: Lilicors Village
Appearance:
Standing 5'3, 5'8 if he didn't have a hunched back, he uses his knobby and splintered staff to help him walk. He shuffles slowly down the road, his tattered and dirty rags dangle loosely from his body while a tall and big brimmed hat sinks low on his head, shading his malformed faced and covering his long, grey, thinned out dirty hair. Upon his shoulder sits a rat that squeaks softly into his ear. Upon his waist is a rope made into a belt that holds small leather pouches.
History:
Jonas Witherfield was a prosperous merchant who traveled far and wide through Marsh Flats to trade his goods. One day, he was robbed and left for dead by bandits on the road. His goods were stolen, and he was left with nothing but his clothes and a few gold coins.
As he lay on the marshy, moss covered ground, bleeding and near death, a hag appeared through the dense early morning fog, before him. The hag had been watching from afar and saw the injustice that had been done to him. She took pity on him and decided to save his life.
The hag used her magic to heal Jonas's wounds and nursed him back to health. But there was a price to pay. The hag demanded that Jonas give up his old life and become her servant. She promised to teach him the ways of magic and make him powerful beyond his wildest dreams.
Desperate and with nowhere else to turn, Jonas agreed to the hag's terms. He became the hag's apprentice and learned the dark and forbidden arts of magic. The hag was a demanding and cruel teacher, but Jonas was determined to learn all he could.
Jonas Witherfield walks the dark allies, streets, twisting the fortunates of the impoverished through curses, hexes, and blood magic at unique blood price. An IOU signed in blood. However, finding Jonas Witherfield can be a bit of a challenge as his true name is rarely used and is typically only referred to as The Rat Witch by his clients.
