History

Mysterious "appointer". Assigning positions to the people in his life.

— Jefferson's profile

A man of rigid military bearing, Jefferson stood as an unyielding advocate for hierarchy, convinced that titles and offices were the foundation of peace and prosperity. His life’s purpose was the imposition of such order.

During the tumult of the War of the Champions, Jefferson marched uninvited into Budehuc Castle and began bestowing ranks upon its inhabitants with the solemnity of a general issuing battlefield commissions. Though many dismissed him as a zealot, none could deny his fervor.

He maintained detailed ledgers, recording the strengths (and perceived failings) of his comrades, all while devising ever more elaborate titles. "Ninja President," "Aesthetic Manager," such designations flowed from his pen with the seriousness of imperial edicts.

His disdain for undisciplined youth was matched only by his obsession with morning drills, which he deemed essential for cultivating both body and spirit. Though not as vital as holding the proper title, of course.

To Jefferson, titles were not mere words but the very framework of civilization. Yet his solemn proclamations often came across as absurd and frivolous, such as when he dubbed Cecil and Joan with nonsensical honors. That he saw no contradiction in this only deepened his infamy.

Even after the war’s end, he remained a fixture in the castle, lying in wait for new arrivals so that he might subject them to his bureaucratic whims.

Following the war, he continued to live at the castle, conferring more titles to new arrivals.
