Personality•
Jonah is very outgoing considering his quiet demeanor. His very presence fills any room he walks into. He is a charming man. He is a smooth talker and has a strong air of confidence. The paladin is very sure of himself and many find this to be a sign of arrogance. However, once you get to know him, he is not an arrogant type. He is ambitious and very determined. Once he has decided upon a goal, he will do everything in his power to achieve it. Jonah is someone who can't sit still for extremely long periods of time, as he likes to move around and hates confinement. This Aasimar can be very stubborn and opinionated about certain things. Once he has his mind set on something, you can't easily sway his descision. He has a habit of speaking his mind freely. Many dislike this trait, his bluntness, because he states things as they are and he honestly isn't afraid to. Jonah is someone more driven by emotion and sudden impulses rather than by logic alone. He is very patient in the realm of his emotions, however, if pushed enough can become very explosive.

Backstory•
Ancestry:Garuda-Blooded (Plumekith)
Their shimmering avian features make plumekith instantly recognizable. Though they can act rashly, plumekith never shirk their duty after making a commitment.
History: Jonah had an average childhood considering he was the son of a soldier and a seamstress. He grew up the oldest among four boys, and was always the one they looked up to. The patriarchy of the family was passed onto the boy when he was barely ten years old. His father had died fighting some war that has been long forgotten. Jonah was forced to become the man of the house, and he did a fine job as it was. He aged like a normal human, and had no idea his true father was an aasimar.
When he was old enough, he apprenticed with soldiers and went through intensive training and years of fighting. The man rose through the ranks and even became a Captain of King's army. He was an exceptional leader of the men he commanded at the age of twenty-two.
At the age of thirty, he had decided next to try out being a sellsword around the land. His body was certainly ready and he felt and looked amazing for his age. Freedom is what his mind and body were craving, little did he know his soul was trying to tell him something. As it turns out, he rather enjoyed this line of work and through it, he was able to find his true calling. At the age of thirty-six Jonah's body showed no signs of aging, spectacualrly- of course, this was his blood doing this. The only irregularity were the feathers that had started to sprout from the middle of his back. He plucked them everyday and yet never told a soul.
A job brought him to the Isle of Bidej where he was asked to protect the sacred temple while the masters went to meet with the dying King and usher him into the next life. It was here Jonah found the shrine of Heironeous. The statue of a fist clenching lightning called out to him in a godly tone to come closer and receive it's blessing. He was imbued with a holy power and a righteous cause, from that moment he never looked back. The paladin states Heironeous spoke to him that day, whispered to him of his true heritage and his rightful calling. His wings grew to their full glory in the course of a week. They only gave him strength as he battled evil beings about the land.
He fell in love with a girl on his travels about the kingdom when he was almost fourty and yet didn't look a day over 20. A farmer's daughter from the Hills of Dorogoth. She was quite young in comparison, and quite beautiful for a simple girl. Jonah's love did not last as long as he had hoped however. After a year of traveling to and from places filled with evil blights to visit with her, he returned for the last time. The girl's father had informed him that the girl, her name was Martha, had passed on a week before he arrived. He was told she had a deadly encounter with a sabretooth cat when it spotted her with its young. Little did it know she was rescuing them from a group of kappa. The cat stole his true love and almost stole his motivation to live. However, he still had his god to rely on. Without his religion, he may not have gone on with life.
The next few months were full of smiting evil from the Lands of Mirranor. Quankim Mountains and Zoran's gate were so thick with evilly aligned individuals as they usually are. It was then Master Ursa Sovnig sent for the reknown paladin to join his guild. This of course was two decades ago. Jonah accepted the invitation withiut hesitation and now serves as second-in-command of the Pathfinders. He is their Commander.

•Extra•
Familiar: Katia the warg.
During his travels as a sellsword, Jonah came across three highway men who thought it wise to kidnap and torture an orc toddler. As valiant as ever, even before he gained his wings, the man stepped into their camp and put down the dreadful men. Jonah was putting a salve on the baby orc's cuts as it's father and kin showed up. He was accepted into the clan of Buhzrud as one of their own and gifted a warg pup.
Upon finding his true calling as a paladin, he gained his holy magic and his wings. Along with that, after Katia was well into adulthood, the pair formed a divine bond. The warg gained skills and was unusually intelligent, strong, and loyal. Katia became Jonah's steed and companion to serve him in his crusade against evil.
