Jallar Za is an escaped slave from the Summer Isles. His freedom came after a daring escape that involved many of the skills he learned as a child before he was enslaved and during his enslavement. In 99 AC, Jallar arrived in Westeros to start a new life.

Pleasant on the eyes, Jallar is often underestimated as only that but he has a mind for chaos and the skills to see it come to fruition.

Appearance Edit



Jallar has grey eyes and brown hair, tied tightly into braids that are bunched together on the top of his head yet still drape to his shoulders. He has pronounced cheekbones and a thick nose. Normally, he wears a casual expression his face and an easy smirk. Jallar prefers to keep himself as groomed as possible given his circumstances, such as maintaining the small patch of hair on his chin. Falling into routine, Jallar will wear thick, oversized cloaks that he bundles together when sleeping on the streets and almost always wears a hood when traveling.

History Edit

Jallar was born to a noble family in the Summer Isles, one of four children and three more came after him. Jallar’s parents were well-intertwined into the islands’ politics but always made time for their children. He was the third son and wasn’t expected to do much except honor his family in his pursuits. As a noble child, Jallar was taught the normal lessons of reading, writing, counting, and, most importantly for men of the Summer Isles, how to shoot and fight. Jallar had a delicate touch, finding a natural talent with quill and dagger. As he grew, Jallat also found himself enjoying puzzles and riddles that his neighbors would share with him whenever he came to court with his parents.

After Jallar turned twelve, his parents warned the family of a possible conflict. Neighboring provinces were being raided by a huge fleet of pirates. Their town was up in the hills, though, so they thought they were safe. However, one night, there was a huge fire in the crop fields and when the warriors went out to safe their food, the pirates ambushed the town. Jallar tried to defend his family but he was too young and too weak against the might of the experienced pirates. While trying to fight off a pair from entering his home, Jallar was knocked out. He awoke days later chained in irons on an unknown ship with others from his town. However, he didn’t see his family anywhere.

Weeks went by and the ship eventually docked into a foreign harbor, shadowed by a massive black fortress in the distance. Jallar was taken off the ship and sold with a number of other young men. In their native tongue, the man who appeared to collect them said, “I am your Father now. You are mine. You will obey.”

Obedience turned out to be fighting for entertainment. Jallar did his best to survive, outlasting all those he had been sold with. During this time, Jallar lived in absolute turmoil worrying about his family, fearing for his life, and furiously planning some way to escape. There were some times he tried but when he would get close to freedom he always would have to pull back just before he would get caught. For six years he tried. Jallar fought whoever was thrown at him and he became a fan favorite for his skill with sword and dagger. The crowd would cheer the name they come up for him, Bantis Keli, which he was told later roughly meant “Night Cat”. His master eventually started to bring him to lavish feasts so that his benefactors would pay more money for the chance to meet him in person. At one of these, the master pulled him aside and told him that he was going to have to sleep with one of them.

It was at this dark moment that Jaller came up with his plan. After entering the room, Jallar convinced the woman who paid for the evening with him to take him with her. It took all of his charm and wit. Yet, the woman escorted him out of the room and into an outdoor garden. There, Jallar ran from her and escaped the compound that had been his home for years. Although his dark skin made him stand out, Jallar kept to larger crowds and always wore a large hooded cloak to hide his identity. For little over a year he lived in the city as a beggar, armed only with a dagger and his wits. He would earn some coin by offering to be a scribe for those merchants too poor or too cheap to pay for a guilded one.

Then, he made contact with one merchant who offered to pay him with a trip to a strange land called Westeros. Jallar immediately agreed, thinking that if he could go across the ocean, he’d have a better chance of returning home. Collecting what little possessions he had, Jallar travelled to Westeros and arrived in a city the merchant called, “King’s Landing.” There, he essentially did the same thing he did in Volantis, always in search of another opportunity to get him closer to taking back what had been taken from him all those years ago.
