Appearance and Character

With defined features and dark hair, Jon bears a strong resemblance to his father - far more than he would care for. His blue eyes, however, are identical to those of his mother. He stands at average height and maintains good shape through his temperate consumption of food and drink.

Jon is considered fashionable for a lord, and as such, dresses in fine fabrics and custom-made clothes. He generally opts for neutral colours and many of his custom clothes are embroidered with the ermine tincture of House Rosby.

Mild-mannered and conscientious, he is a thoughtful man who chooses his words carefully. While amicable, he ranks professionalism above all. Jon is diligent in his role as spymaster and regularly works late into the night.

Jon is no ordinary spymaster. While he would only consider a handful of people amongst his closest friends, he is as gregarious as a spymaster can be, cultivating relationships with people from all walks of society, be it an informant from Flea Bottom, or a member of the royal household.

History

Jon and his fraternal twin, Jaime, were the culmination of Benedict and Belinda Rosby’s decade-long struggle to produce a trueborn son. The Rosby’s hardships were finally rewarded with not one, but two sons in 409 AC.

Although a bright child, he dreamed of becoming a knight, much to the frustration of his mother. She eventually pressured him to drop his dreams of knighthood to instead focus on his lordly duties. Jaime, however, received the blessing to embark on the path to knighthood, leading to somewhat of a childhood rivalry between the pair.

A notable period of his formative years was spent in King’s Landing under the care and tutelage of his mother. The revered Mistress of Whisperers ensured his social life was not impacted, and thus Jon’s gregarious nature was allowed to blossom. He befriended all sorts of children in the city, ranging from Targaryens to paupers in Flea Bottom. Through his social experiences, he developed both his courtly skills, as well as the street smarts that would help him later in life.

As Jon’s academic and social development continued, he finally began to show real interest in his lordly duties - as well as the more clandestine activities of his mother. Despite her best attempts to keep him away from her line of work, Jon’s guile proved too much of an asset to simply ignore. The young man began to assist with duties; be it delivering messages, or even personally gathering information.

Jon’s growing reputation made him a good person to befriend. And with that, came opportunities for him to learn more about his newfound friends. He continued to cultivate these relationships past adulthood and into his twentieth years, unfazed by his marriage to [wife]. He split his time between Rosby and King’s Landing, attending to his wife and eventual two children by her.

Due to health complications following the birth of their second child, [wife] passed away in her sleep following several months of illness. Out of his depth with having to raise two children, Belinda began to travel to Rosby regularly to assist with guardianship, with Jon assisting with her duties in the capital instead. Belinda eventually resigned from the council in 436 AC, but not before arranging for Jon to subsequently assume the vacant position.

Since his appointment, Jon has proved himself adept at his role, helping to mitigate risks to the stability of the kingdom, as well as growing the Rosby spy network further than ever before. He has managed to avoid aligning himself with any faction thus far, instead intent on serving the king and the realm impartially.
