Background

Jubilant Lion of the Sky was born into a relatively modest tribe of Ice Walkers, he was an only child as his family had barely enough food to support themselves. Their tribe had been the victim of a plague, not one that wiped out there tribe but rather one that had destroyed most of the herd that they followed. Because of this the tribe was unable to support its own population and it had begun to slowly shrink and be pushed further and further north by other Ice Walker tribes. That was before Jubilant Lion came of age. Jubilant Lion was a quiet boy who did not take much to anyone, including his own parents who often felt the child was possessed in some way as he sulked alone and acted unlike any tribesmen they had ever seen. He was a physical specimen throughout his younger years despite the lack of food grew into a strong man capable of bringing down the mightiest mammoth alone, with nothing but a rugged spear and his own cunning. These traits that would go own to make him an excellent Chosen of Battles carried him on to become the most prestigious hunter in his tribe, perhaps throughout all the Ice Walker tribes. His tribe flourished as he reached the age of 18, living off what his tribes hunters could now provide, trained by the young huntsman. However, Jubilant Lion did not stay with his tribe much longer after that.

He was hunting a pack of bison solo when something spooked the herd and they stampeded away before he could get a kill, it was the first time he had failed to bring home supplies. To his surprise it was a lone figure, rising out of the snow covered in heavy furs that had spooked the herd, the figure started to approach. He soon realized the figure was there for him, it spoke to him and convinced him to come away with him. Telling him it was his destiny to be greater than this. After 6 months in the mysterious city of Yu-Shan he had become familiar with the bureaucracy that governed the city; that was all the time that he needed to wait before his previous incarnation was killed and re-manifested within him.

It was still early in the years of the Empress' reign and he was immediately recruited by the Bronze Faction and stationed in the north, where he was most familiar. He served the Bronze Faction often dealing with the tribes that roamed over most of that area and commonly leading the city states that were loyal to the realm to destroy particularly troublesome tribes. Because these tribes could not be fought like a normal military unit his expertise with the terrain and tribe movements made him an immediate expert in guerrilla warfare. It was in this duty that he served until the disappearance of the Empress and the reappearance of the solars.

Jubilant Lion did not immediately defect from the Bronze Fraction, but rather he spoke in secret with high ranking members of the Gold Faction, eventually leading him to speak with a new solar in the north, Bull of the North. He spoke with him on only a few occasions but he secretly manipulated the strings that helped to keep The Bull of the North from the realm long enough for him to accumulate the power he needed. When he was asked to lead the forces of the realm against the growing threat of the northern tribes he accepted, but it would be his last mission for the Bronze Faction. After leading the legions into the deep north he abandoned the army to its own devices, claiming more important duties pulled him away from the army, something that may have been previously arranged by the Gold Faction. History tells us that the Bull of the North destroyed the realms legions who were out maneuvered by the well led tribes of the north, the Bronze Faction never contacted him again. Despite a criminal audit he managed to avoid any blame for the debacle officially, his defection into the Gold Faction says all that it needs to as far as the Bronze Fraction.
