Social Station : Equestrian
Origins: Constantinople
Bio : Green faction gang leader in his younger days who made himself valuable to the leadership of the Greens by showing he could use his brains as well as his fists and a quick knife. A good marriage to the equally wild daughter (only child) of a wealthy merchant allowed John to set up as a breeder and supplier of Horses and Feedstuffs inc Chariot Horses to his beloved Greens. Due to services to the Imperial Cavalry & favour of Important Senators John has been rewarded by being made a member of the Equestrian Order and given positions in the Civil Service (Note their are laws about slander - and saying Important Senators give rewards to their Chariot racing cronies for a good tips and graft on Army supply contracts is slander). Having become fairly respectable John & his wife and now looking to find honourable positions in the Cavalry, Navy & Civil Service for their sons and honourable matches for all their children. Hopefully before they start making some of their parents mistakes in the big bad city.
