Jacoin Verallin

Jacoin Verallin (pronounced: JAH-coin ver-AWL-in) was a soldier and scientist in the very beginning of the First Age.

History
Verallin joined the Army of Indier as a young man, and rapidly rose through the ranks, eventually becoming the Captain-General for the King's Guards. However, during one of the frequent fights Indier had with Malderen, Verallin had to have one of his legs amputated at the knee, and was thus discharged with enough gold to allow him to live a comfortable life. He was still only relatively young at this point, and refused to sit around doing nothing with the life he had left. So he turned his hand to alchemy and science.

Nothing much of known of his life thereafter, save that he spent the vast majority of it doing various experiments, and inventing many astonishing scientific equipment - most of which have never resurfaced. Eventually, tired of the constant battles and wars going on, Verallin decided that rather than find a solution, he would make one. He would breed a humanoid race capable of great knowledge and wisdom, who would guide the human race on the road to peace. No one, not even Verallin, knew where his plan went awry. He did indeed see part of this plan come to fruition - five males who later gave themselves the name Kerajaan. However, everything went wrong, and Verallin was slaughtered by his creations - who had turned out to be soul-feeding vampires intend on causing chaos and death.

Thus, Verallin's life was ended by the creations he had given so much loving care to make.
