Jiub Huxtable was adopted by a well-to-do human family shortly after birth. Unbeknownst to him, his adoptive father, Cliff, had secretly fathered Jiub with an elf maid who worked at the Huxtable estate. Sort of like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but less mythical. As a half-elf, growing up in high-society was difficult for Jiub. Other children called Jiub a “half-bred mongrel” and “N’wah.” And guests at the Huxtable estate often mistook Jiub as a helper. Nevertheless, Jiub enjoyed the benefits of his father’s privilege. He received private tutors and practiced archery a hobby. But the torment Jiub suffered instilled in him a deep sense of internalized racism. He resented the fact that he was not a full human and even cut the points of his ears off as a teenager. Jiub is a true “Uncle Link.” Although he has elven blood, he will usually take a human’s side in a dispute against elves.
After Jiub’s father passed away, his mother told him the truth about the circumstances of his birth. Shocked by the revelations, Jiub left the comforts of his father’s estate and went into the forest. During his first night in the woods, Jiub was attacked by a bear (human not animal). He was rescued by an assassin from a shadowy organization known as the Order of Chemerinsky. Jiub spent the next decades repaying his debt to the Chemerinsky’s with his bow—mainly in service to gnomes. Coincidence? In his last job for the Chemerinskies, Jiub a colleague betrayed him. Jiub managed to escape, but barely. He made it to Terra with just the clothes on his back. For the last twenty years, he has worked as a stablemaster in Riverrun (should be called Boalt). Jiub has carved out a comfortable but unexciting existence. He often thinks of his time serving Chemerinsky and hopes for a new adventure.
