Jast: Introduction to Jast Durien

[The following is an OOC description of Jast Durien's history and personality.]

Jast is the kind of person who hates trouble, but always finds it. It could be attributed tohim being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but more likely it is his knack for saying the wrong thing to the wrong person. Jast was a wander by nature. He spent most of his childhood in the forests of Quel'Thalas and little time anywhere around a settlement. He disliked being around groups of people because he never quite understood how to deal with them. His constant withdrawal made him detached, but he still longed for a sense of belonging in the civilized world. He never really had a good reason for disliking people, he just never could quite get along with them. Eventually he left Quel'Thalas and wandered most of the known world with his companion Milyn. Milyn was a Ghostclaw lynx that Jast found. He found Milyn when she was just a cub while wandering in the forest. The cub had been abandoned and he took to her quickly. Milyn is the only creature in the world Jast can truly trust to come through for him and the only thing Jast cares for.
Shortly after the second war Jast spend some time with some Gnomes who taught him the basics of engineering and showed him their rifles. Jast instantly took to the rifles and gave up using a bow completely. He enjoyed tinkering with his gun trying to get the most power out of it. It also helped him discover his knack for making many kinds of devices. He learned to make and use explosives, scopes, goggles, and many other gadgets. His time with the Gnomes was short lived due to some disagreements that resulted in Jast running from the camp.
After the third war when the Blood Elves' allegiances changed it meant very little to Jast. He had not made many friends during his time with the Alliance so the new affiliation of the Blood Elf race with the Horde gave him a new start. He slowly started integrating himself in society, and began taking hunting and scouting jobs for the Forsaken. He got along with the Forsaken well, who seemed to think more like him, and most of the Horde in general. His relationship with the Blood Elves remained unchanged and was still strained.
