JETHRO HAIG'S INFAMY FILE

PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE X PRIVATE KNOWLEDGE

INTRODUCTORY BLURB

IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL

Jethro Haig is a Unovan ex-ranger turned farmer, who relocated to Fallarbor Town in the fall of 2023. He's a surly bastard that keeps to himself, spending his days tending to what little livestock he has and researching for the next growing season. He doesn't quite particularly care for all the convoluted nonsense that keeps cropping up in these parts, but hey, the people gotta eat, and what else is a man to do but provide? The following information is what can be gleaned from a search of publicly available records, including birth certificates, financial records, obituaries, courthouse documents, and Floccesy's local newspaper.

PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE

WHAT CAN BE LOOKED UP

• Jethro Obediah Haig was born January 4th, 1981
• He's the oldest of six children born to Levi and Priscilla Haig, a pair of ranchers who primarily raised cattle in his hometown
• His siblings include Ezekiel, Mordecai, Naomi Winchester (nee Haig), Ruth, and Thomas Haig
• Was originally set to take over the family business, but he instead passed the opportunity on to his younger brother Ezekiel and became a Pokemon Ranger instead
• While not a particularly famous figure, Jethro would reach the Unovan equivalent rank of Elite Ranger by the time he retired from his position
• Was married to Jesse Puckett, a Floccesy local who would later run the local general store, on February 6th, 2002
• The two remained together for a little over over twenty years until Jesse passed away unexpectedly in the fall of 2022
• Jethro would leave the Rangers shortly after, and relocated to Hoenn in the fall of 2023

LEAGUE KNOWLEDGE

POINTS OF INTEREST FOR THE LEAGUE FACTION

• Anyone with access to records housed by the Unovan branch of the Rangers would note that Jethro had a sterling record while under their employ; he was well-loved by his community and cohorts, would go to extreme lengths to ensure the safety of people and Pokemon alike, and had a particular knack for working with Pokemon commonly used in farming and agriculture
• Those with access to coroner’s reports out of Virbank City would find that Jethro’s late husband was killed in a collision with a drunk driver

ROCKET KNOWLEDGE

POINTS OF INTEREST FOR TEAM ROCKET FACTION

• Thomas Haig, the youngest of Jethro’s siblings, would later relocate to Kanto in a bid to join the team Rocket branch there. He primarily worked as an enforcer and as muscle during extortion operations, and was later killed by resistance fighters during the region’s takeover

PRIVATE KNOWLEDGE

PERSONAL SECRETS

• Extremely anti-Rocket. Not only finds their general criminality extremely distasteful and their mistreatment of Pokemon horrific, but he feels a specific sense of betrayal at his younger brother’s affiliation with the organization.
• Doesn’t actually know that Thomas Haig has long since passed, but heavily suspects as much. Half of it comes from his inherent hatred of Team Rocket, half of it is just gut instinct
• Retired from the Rangers and moved from Unova due largely to the fact that he’s still mourning his husband’s passing
• He’ll tell you that he didn’t pick Hoenn as his new home for any specific reason, but in truth, he greatly admires the work of the Rangers in the region, and has at times considered aiding them in their efforts
• He did specifically pick Fallarbor as his new home because he wanted to get back into farming; while his family primarily handled livestock, Jethro personally aims to dabble into agriculture as well
• Has a soft spot for work involving Pokemon welfare
