I didn't mean to be dickish, and I'm sorry it came off that way. Sure, I get a little itchy when people tell me what is and isn't necessary for my character, but that doesn't call for bad behavior and I apologize if I overreacted. 

The way my thinking went, there are bad people all over the place, some worse than others. Being that Karstberg is one of the larger cities in it's world, it would attract more bad people and the worst kind. That said, being raised in an environment like that, Jarl would have developed a soft spot for the kids of similar background, especially the girls, and that would have come to play a large part of how this character develops over the course of the game. Of course, I understand that you wouldn't want this kind of stuff in your RP, and you are perfectly within your right to deny my character. Of course, seeing that my character's biggest psychological part in this RP isn't allowed, I have to rescind my interest and bid you all a good one.

Tchau.
