Gretcher

Since then, Gretcher has shown a liking for Jackson and was brought home with him to Azeroth. Gretcher currently resides at the Hellstrider Enclave's Stables though also frequently visits the Military stables in Stormwind City when Jackson is in town.

Whilst normally a friendly wolf by nature, upon command or proper-instinct Gretcher is capable of fighting to the point of being lethal. Gretcher of course knows how to control this and only would do such a thing like kill someone if he or someone else was in grave danger.

Normally around Gretcher is a large saddle attached to it many weapons, as well as some satchels to carry things, whether it be weapons or utilities.

Gretcher is known to love the cold weather, and also likes to swim.

= History =

Born to two parents of unknown identities, Jackson Amadatha was dropped off in a basket in front of the Stormwind Orphanage on the sixteenth of June, year two of the Lotharian Calendar. A note was included within the basket, which read; Jackson was abandoned by his two biological parents, their identities never found. Shortly after, the abandon infant was retrieved by the orphanage caretakers and was taken care of like any other orphan, in peace and harmony, shown love by the caretakers. This peaceful life would be good for his extremely young infant mind, growing used to being taken care of by the orphanage's caretakers and a Priest here and there.

The First War WCOaH.png
Following the turn of the new year, 3 L.C., when Jackson was one year of age, the Orcish Horde invaded through the Dark Portal. Throughout the First War, until the final siege on Stormwind which would lead to the exodus to Lordaeron led by Sir Anduin Lothar, Jackson lived in the orphanage, and would meet a multitude friends, often pitied by their parents as he was an orphan without a mother and father of his own.

When Jackson was six, in year 8 L.C., Stormwind City went under siege after the Orcs assaulted it. When the Orcs made it to the Cathedral Square, the orphanage was sent to crumbles as siege canons blasted the walls away, however the caretakers rushed alongside soldiers to rescue the children. The majority of orphans were killed in the siege blasts, however the remaining were rescued by the caretakers and soldiers and taken to safety. Jackson was one of these lucky few.

After the citizens of Stormwind fled to Lordaeron City following the battle, Jackson was moved into Lordaeron's orphanage, however was quite traumatized after watching such violence in the siege, specifically when the orphanage was attacked, at such a young age of only six. Holy Priests of the Church often visited the young child to help him with his troubles.

About three months after arriving in Lordaeron, Jackson overcame his post-traumatic fears and began to live normally again, in the new city of Lordaeron. He enrolled in kindergarten, paid for by a certain generous Mother of the Holy Church by the name of Anna Boe, and would enjoy his education, and was one of the more 'prestigious' students of the kindergarten. His former friends were killed in the siege of Stormwind, however was too young to mourn their deaths, and the truth of what happened to them was censored by those who told him, given he was only six years old. Jackson made new childhood friends then, often going on adventures around the city. Despite enjoying his life now, he was never adopted, even by Anna, as she unfortunately did not have the time to care for a sixth child, as she currently had five of her own. This never bothered him, however.

He'd enjoy his peaceful life as a young child in Lordaeron for a bit longer, up until the next war.

The Second War & Stormwind's Reconstruction WC2ToD-logo.png
Following growing up the majority of his earliest years in Lordaeron, the newly formed Alliance of Lordaeron marched out to take back their homeland. Jackson wasn't really effected up until the time where they would march to take back Stormwind, as Anna, the Priest paying for his education, was going to move back to Stormwind, thus, Lordaeron's orphanage arranged for him to be moved to the Stormwind Orphanage once more. Following the Alliance's liberation of Stormwind City, Jackson would move back into Stormwind following Anna. He would soon after reunite with a few of his old friends back in Lordaeron, and would live peacefully once again.

In year eleven, Jackson was nine. He'd begin eventually become rather attached to Anna, as he was quite grateful for the schooling that was being paid for by her. He'd often ask her to spend time with him when he didn't have his friends around, and she treated him like her own even if she couldn't be with him a tremendous amount of time nor take him in as a legal child. It was at this age that Jackson would become more independent, caring for himself however still living in the orphanage, and also began expressing interest in learning combat, and serving the good by doing things others wouldn't.

At the age of thirteen, Jackson decided he'd like to acquire a flow of income. Anna's husband, Johnathan, was a contractor for the Stonemason's Guild, a laboring guild who helped with the reconstruction of Stormwind City, and thus, Jackson was able to set up a private 'unofficial job' with the section of the guild Johnathan was the supervisor of. Jackson began working a very tight schedule, and arranged to only go to school for the most necessary hours to receive proper education. He went to school from eight in the morning to two in the afternoon, he'd then work at the guild from two-thirty to seven in the morning, and then train and/or socialize for the rest of the night until he went to sleep; the former typically what he did more often, but still found time to socialize.

Jackson worked at a mere two gold a week, however prior he rarely got any coin other than doing a job here and there, so this was very good for him. After about three weeks, Jackson saved up enough gold to buy himself a set of leather armor and a sword, with a few coin left over. After purchasing the arms and armor, he began to train himself with books and physical practice whenever he had time after work, and wasn't sleeping or spending the rest of his time socializing in the city. He'd also be able to purchase his own food opposed to eating from the orphanage. He eventually received a raise to four gold per week after three months, and worked at that pay for a while. Over time, he'd develop a collection of arms and armor, and train with a larger majority of different weaponry.

When Jackson was sixteen, upon the date of June nineteenth, year eighteen by the Lotharian Calendar, Anna was assassinated in Stormwind. Guards saw this and promptly arrested the man, however he escaped within an hour via some trickery. Jackson was informed by Johnathan later that day, and helped him grieve, however Jackson was able to keep far more composed than Johnathan could during these events. A formal warrant was made for the assassin's capture or death, with a reward of five-hundred gold coins for any intelligence regarding his whereabouts, or his capture or death. Jackson approached Johnathan the next evening, and swore that he would find Anna's killer, and end him. Jackson set off that night to find this assassin, and after about three days, located this assassin via coming in contact with some of Stormwind's 'underground'.

Jackson tailed this man around Stormwind for another two days, until finally catching him in a quiet spot, an ally way. He proceeded to attack the man, and after a brief physical confrontation, hand-to-hand which soon escalated to blades, and ended with Jackson shooting the man in the leg. He forced the man to admit the murder, which he did, and also asked him  'why?' he murdered Anna, to which he replied; Jackson then stabbed him fatally in the throat, and then brought the body to the Guard that night. He was awarded the five-hundred gold coins, however he donated it all to a few charities and the Stormwind Orphanage. Jackson returned to Johnathan the next day, explaining what he did. Johnathan would be forever in the young man's debt, although this didn't make his grieving much easier.

In Febuary of 20 L.C., Jackson was seventeen, and decided to drop out of schooling in preparation to enlist into the Alliance Military. In May, he'd say goodbye to his construction working comrades in the Stonemason's Guild, and quit that as well. Come the first of June of the aforementioned year, Jackson would turn eighteen years of age, and prepare to leave for enlistment. He decided to enlist into the Stormwind Military, the Army specifically. He would come in as a Recruit, and was assigned the 22nd Regiment of the Duskwood Brigade.
