Jared left Waterdeep with childhood friend Vil'velas to explore the eastern reaches and to search for fame, treasure, and beautiful princesses in need of rescuing. They have slowly worked their way east, traveling swiftly and mostly uneventfully until the pair was captured as they tried to enter the Dalelands.
Family
Jared is the oldest of three children borne to a pair of Waterdavian bards, Sarah and Jacob Althame. In his early youth his family traveled up and down the Sword Coast performing and saving money to buy an inn in Waterdeep in 1366 which his father and mother still run. Jared grew up on the stage and is used to performing, although he has none of his parent's talents for bardic magics, he is an able physical performer and learned to fight by mimicking his father's motions with the sword during plays; eventually learning how to handle a chain to aid his acrobatics act during his performance.
Jared's two younger siblings are Michael and Penny. Both of them are too young to remember life on the road and think of their parents as innkeepers and themselves as the children of innkeepers, but Jared remembers the traveling lifestyle and left home to return to it.
