Description

Name: Jaga Rajawali
Born: December 27, 1857; Batavia, Java
Died: April 17, 1950; Jakarta, Indonesia (age 93)
Allegiance: Assassins

Bio: Jaga was born into poverty to two Assassin parents of Arab descent. He was raised to loyally adhere to the Creed and defend his homeland however need be. In 1867, his little sister, Apsarini, was born, and he loved her dearly. Tragedy struck Jaga’s life soon after though, as just before Apsarini’s first birthday, a group of Templars slaughtered their parents in cold blood. Jaga only barely escaped the attack with his baby sister, and from that day on he grew very protective as he swore to protect her for as long as he lived.

In 1873, the Aceh War began as a result of the Dutch military desiring control over the area's resources. The local Assassins, having been nearly wiped out by the Templars since the colonial government replaced the VOC, saw the conflict as a means of fighting back. Jaga took up arms on orders from the Mentor, Teuku Ibrahim Lamnga, and fought a hard fight until things turned grim once again. The Mentor was killed in 1878, the Assassins lost their footing again, and by the time ceasefire had been issued in 1880, they retreated into the shadows once again. Lamnga’s wife, Cut Nyak Dhien, took over as Mentor and fell into the same post-slaughter paranoia that most of the Brotherhood did, much to Apsarini’s dismay.

The Assassins stayed in the shadows for a while until their hands were forced again when the Aceh War restarted in 1883. Both Jaga and Apsarini took up arms to defend their homeland, though Apsarini travelled much more abroad to accomplish her missions than Jaga did. For the rest of his years, Jaga remained in Indonesia, helping with the various rebellions and social reforms that sprung up over the decades. He helped his sister to lead the Assassins during the Japanese occupation of the islands during World War II and the subsequent War for Independence. Jaga died right after the revolution, leaving the lands in the capable hands of his sister, whom he was very proud of.
