Extra: Jon was born in Caemlyn, but that hardly means anything to him anymore, as he has been traveling all across Andor, Cairhien, Illian, and other lands most of his life. His parents died when he was just a boy, and he has since had to learn to fend for himself.
He travels constantly, often with no real destination in mind, as anything from a thief to a con-artist to an amateur gleeman (the last only when he was certain no _real_ gleeman were in the area). He still doesn't understand why he uses the unusual sword he habitually carries (a heronmark rapier), but he feels comfortable with it and can make a dozen strikes with it before a normal man can make three.
He *ahem* "acquired" the rapier from the home of a wealthy Tairen merchant, initially intent on selling it. A chance encounter with bandits on the way to Illian changed that decision as he found the weapon remarkably easy to use and quite effective.
He avoids channelers whenever possible, again for reasons he cannot quite fathom. He simply feels extremely uncomfortable when near anything or anyone (Aes Sedai, Ashaman, or ter'angreal) that channels the One Power, even if he is unaware of their presence (I have an explanation for his discomfort, but since he doesn't know why yet, I felt it best not to divulge that information). For this reason, he has never been to Tar Valon, despite his wide travels.
