Background
Jeppe is the third son of a wealthy manorial lord in Scandinavia. While his elder brothers had the regular martial training, he was educated at the bishop’s court and later sent to the continent to study.
He has most of his studies from Montpellier, but has also taken years to travel across Europe to visit several universities and cities.
His main interest is alchemy. In Montpellier he got into a peculiar circle of students with a keen interest in alchemy and mystical arts. They were all essentially good boys, just possibly a little over-ambitious and prone to pride. They ended up summoning a demon who granted them all different false powers. Jeppe learnt figurine magic. It took some time before they realised what they had done, and the circle broke up. Jeppe, like most of the others left Montpellier to complete their studies elsewhere.
Returning to his native lands, he will set up shop in a major city to make a living. However, he is adventurous, and he will need to travel extensively in the search for rare ingredients and new knowledge.
