Once a celebrated warrior of the Naphas, Juuk Juz is now only a renegade who, because of his ideals, has turned his back on the lord and the government. He lives in the desert city of Shavgrad, where great battles have taken place in the past. Juuk earns most of his money there with mercenary quests. Often it is about driving away wild animals or beasts that ordinary warriors don't want to mess with. He has already become a minor famous person in Shavgrad and is mainly known under the name "The Monster Hunter". Juuk has an admirer who wrote a short ballad about him. The ballad is called "The Legend of Juuk Juz" and goes like this: “Sizahlas jungle is teeming with wild creatures, or even teeming with wild vampires, they roam the wilderness day and at night, and possess a power that would fright(en), they block the streets and important spots, and ignore pleading words and killings they begot, there is only one who can defend, they say he is a mighty man, our loyal friend, Juuk Juz the Monster Hunter is his name, and throughout all of Lyboria he holds fame, he dispels beasts of every kind, and they call for him when one isn’t far behind, and if the payment is fair, the hunt begins right then and there.” Juuk is very happy with his new life in the south. The initial skepticism of other citizens towards him has also disappeared. Many now share his critical stance on the government. Juuk Juz is an aspiring Jazi who is gaining more and more prestige in Shavgrad. We will see where that will lead him…
