Jessie Gribbuge
This is the portrait of Jessie Gribbuge, infamous outlaw and clothing designer. Born at an indeterminate time and in a location only rumored, Jessie began outlawing at an early age, robbing carriages, carts, wagons, pedestrians, and in one daring move, the entire faculty of Gudgeon College, one by one, as they participated in a hide-n-seek team building exercise.
His skill as a freebooter was certainly matched by his prowess as a couturier, and his stylish and durable hand-crafted outfits earned him the moniker The Lavish Cracksman. Jessie bridled at this, preferring his own nickname, The Dignified Larcenist, as "cracksman" refers to safecracking and Jessie refused to be sullied by such low-brow pursuits. The public stuck to their guns and continued calling him a cracksman, which lead to a protracted fight between Jessie and the public writ large in the opinion section of the Leviathan Gazette. Probably a precursor to today's comment section of a political article.
Many of his outfits are extant, hanging in museums and the closets of the heavily monied. Wardrobe historian, Clovis Bowls offered this summation of Jessie - "He may have been a scoundrel and a scourge, but hot damn! He could make a pair of pants!"
