Jazz Edgar is a broad-shouldered brass-red dragonborn with polished copper scales, a scar across one brow ridge, and a military posture that never quite leaves him. His eyes glow like banked coals when he calls on his patron, and his left gauntlet bears black scorch marks from an old infernal bargain. He dresses in worn leather armor under a neatly kept soldier's coat, with a small collection of medals and a prayer cord tied to his belt.

Disciplined, dryly humorous, and harder to rattle than he looks, Jazz carries himself like every room is a briefing and every problem is a mission. He respects competence, keeps his promises, and has little patience for bullies or wasteful cruelty. Beneath that stern exterior, he is quietly protective and often surprising gentle with civilians, recruits, and anyone who reminds him of the soldiers he could not save.

Jazz Edgar was born into a line of dragonborn drillers and banner-bearers, the kind of folk who believed discipline was its own sacred language. He learned early that strength meant little without control, and by the time he was old enough to lift a spear, he could also recite formation signals and battlefield prayers. He served with distinction in a hard marching company that was sent to hold a border fort against raiders, cultists, and things that did not leave footprints. During one hopeless night assault, Jazz made a bargain with a fiendish power that answered his shouted defiance with impossible fire. The fort held, but the war left a crack in him that no commendation could mend. After the campaign, he tried to return to ordinary military life, but the infernal voice had already become a second heartbeat beneath his ribs. Rather than surrender to fear or be court-martialed for the strange powers that followed him, he took the path of a warlock and chose to wield that darkness with intention. Jazz now travels between battlefields and back roads, carrying himself like a veteran officer while quietly hunting the corrupt, the cruel, and the cowardly. He tells himself that if he must carry a devil's flame, then he will use it to burn away the worst kind of monsters, especially the ones that wear human faces.
