Yevitan

Banker at The Royal Bank of Jasper

Actual Description

BACK STORY

Yevitan is very old, and a very shrewd businessman. Although in his old age he runs the Royal Bank in Jasper (which is owned by the Duke) as a younger man he was summoned to the capitol and eventually became the Financial Minister for King Zarcos V. Despite being an outsider from the circles of nobility (no person from Jasper would ever be considered more than a stranger to be wary of to the 'nobility') his intelligence allowed him to become very close to the King, and crucial to his reign. Yevitan became very powerful, both politically and financially. But when the King died Yevitans' umbrella of protection died with him, and his political enemies (which were many) banished him from power and stripped him of his lands. If the Duke had not intervened, he would have been executed as well. But the Duke felt that he might be useful as long as he could keep him relatively out of sight of his enemies, and the perfect opportunity presented itself. The Duke sent Yevitan back to his home town of Jasper on a business venture, to start a bank and take advantage of the then booming mines. A good move on the Dukes' part, because he knew full well that the people of Jasper would never accept an outsider that tried to do business there, and a good move for Yevitan because he kept his head. But that doesn't necessarily mean that Yevitan is ingratiated to the Duke, in fact he has no loyalty to him at all. In his view his salvation was strictly a business transaction, a debt which Yevitan has now paid in full. In the past decade since the closing of the mines, the bank has ceased to be an important asset to the Duke, and Yevitan is all but forgotten in Royal circles. But while keeping a low profile, Yevitan has plenty of time to do some thinking of his own, and has managed to amass another fortune. Now he's waiting for the perfect time, and he'll make his move to raise an army and take power. His political views are much more conservative than the Dukes', he believe that there must be a monarch at ANY price, although he knows that King isn't the position he would hold in the new court. He is always quietly looking for a candidate, and awaiting the time to strike. He is spry for being an elderly man, short and slightly plump.
