Whom or what is responsible? Panic has stricken the globe. Will civilization collapse? What will emerge from the reset? Only time will tell. To each citizen of Aronia from the Global Gazette, we wish all luck.

He can be too trusting and that quality has gotten him into trouble at times. He is tough with a high threshold for pain. He cares about the innocent and protects them, verbally and physically when necessary. Regardless of his slender frame he is strong and durable. His mind is sharp and his tongue sharper. Silver eyes have the ability to intimidate anyone or any wild creature he happens to come across. Small spikes extend from his elbows. He has to be concious of them always or he may injure himself. His morals standards are high. He has shaved silver hair that never seems to grow. The scars on his back continue over his right shoulder and down the right side of his chest. When he is shirtless they make him look like a walking puzzle. Brief description of magical abilities: Enhanced speed and strength. The small spikes protruding from his elbows have the ability to expand up to two feet in length and have so far been able to match any blade, teeth, or claws he has encountered. Silver eyes allow him to see in the dark as well as he can in the daylight. Excellent memory and can notice small things most others look over. His body requires little food and even less sleep to function properly. Brief History: The silver-eyed boy was virgin born. He has no father to speak of. A holy force blessed a woman too old to give birth with a smiling baby boy. The spikes on his elbows made the birthing more painful. Still, she was just happy to have a child. Jericho was brought up in a good home. His deceased grandparents had been avid church-goers. He was taught to read by using the only Bible he had ever seen in Aronia. This gives him little faith in gods but much faith in the One God. He learned everything just by seeing or hearing. Fighting came naturally to him. However, his mother never reprimanded him for fighting. Jericho always fought for the right reasons, if such reasons exist. She knew he was destined for greater things than growing crops. Therefore, she made sure he learned as much as he could about anything and everything, while doing ridiculous amounts of physical labor to add to his already unspeakable strength for a boy his size. His mother sent him to the Forbidden Forest for a month, claiming an Angel came to her in a vision saying this was necessary. Jericho came back more mature and with many many scars he did not have before. Jericho has never spoken of what he encountered there. When his mother took ill and passed Jericho decided there was nothing else keeping him in Ombra Di Notta, at least in the Market District. With what money he gathered from selling select possessions including his home, land, and business he could afford custom made light body armor, dual short swords, throwing knives, sheaths for the two previously mentioned items, provisions that would be edible for months to come, and a few select items. Fortunately his physical needs are basic and requires little in the form of shelter. Jericho decided it was time to use his gifts, traveling until he finds a place he feels his talents are needed the most. Most of all, he is looking for the reason he was born. He's searching for his destiny.
