Jag is a reserved man, roughly 30 years old, who joined the Pachan clan as a child after being found alone in the forest. His past is marked by trauma; his name actually means "weak" in his original clan's language—a label given to him because he refused to steal food from a traveling family. Because of his difficult history, he finds security and purpose in guarding the fire, often staying behind even during clan festivals to protect it. jag roots of pacha
