History: Jocelyn deSpencer is the only child of Raefe and Jessamine deSpencer. Much cherished, she grew up safe in the arms of her parents, running wild and free over deSpencer lands. She knew someday she'd have to grow up and marry, but her parents had married for love, and were determined that their only child do the same. The dawning of her womanhood brought many a suitor for her hand, but none of them stirred Jocelyn's heart. With a gentle smile and a kind, but firm, word, she sent them all away.
Soon enough a neighboring landowner named ElDar Dracus, turned his greedy attentions to the richer deSpencer lands, wanting them for his own. Determined to get the lands through marriage to Jocelyn, ElDar declared his intentions to Raefe deSpencer. Had Jocelyn shown an interest in ElDar, Raefe would have agreed to the match, though he distrusted the all too smooth landowner. But Jocelyn spurned him as she had spurned all other suitors. Something about his manner repulsed her, and though she was as polite as ever, she left no illusions; she would never accept his suit.
One night, not too long after Jocelyn's refusal to marry ElDar, she awoke in the middle of the night restless and unable to go back to sleep. She crept down to the stables, took her favorite mare, and went for a midnight ride. And when she returned, it was to find her world ending. Flames leaping higher and higher in the sky, burning her home to the ground, and her parents with it. She screamed but was not heard, for just then, several horsemen came into view, and paused their horses right next to where she hid, her horse long since spooked and run away. It was there she heard them laugh so coldly, praising Lord Dracus for his plan to get the lands he'd so desired. And to hell with the uppity de Spencers and their spoiled brat of a daughter.
Her parents dead, herself presumed dead, Jocelyn ran. With nothing but her father's dagger which she never left the house without, she ran. She did not go to her King, she did not go to any of her parents' friends. Who would believe her? In her heart she knew; no one would. Disguising herself as a lad, she searched for two years hoping to find someone to take up her cause. But times had changed, and with the change in the reign from the old King to the new King Isidore, Jocelyn finally gave up her solitary fight, and sought the help of a neighboring foster son whom she had watched occasionally during her youth. It was a gamble.
Some would say, her gamble was a failure. The future is yet to be written.
