History: Sold as a small child to a slaver, Jabbie was an assistant, and all too frequently test subject. He eventually earned his freedom when his former master disappeared. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a old dungeon. He would wander through that old dungeon and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there. Jabbie took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up scimitar and armor he uses now. He struck the Ruler job and began his own company from there.
