Jeriah Thackett
He is rarely a success, yet seems to have enough luck and wit to come out of the worst scrapes with all of his limbs attached. For the last few years he has been running with a new crew, unfortunately one of their key members got caught in a recent scheme and the group has decided to try and break them out before their execution date.
Appearance
Jeriah is tall and broad. He looks weathered beyond his years. Most of the time his jawline is scruffy and his hair unkempt. The skin of his hands is coarse and he carries several nasty scars. On more than one occasion he has managed to make himself perfectly presentable for a con, so he is capable of smqrtening up when required.
Skills and Abilities
I have a guy. Thackett frequently 'knows someone' with insider knowledge it frequently turns out that his connections are not quite as described, nor do they turn out to be reliable when they're most needed.
I have a cunning plan. There is always a scheme or plot. Yet despite being a quick wit and a quicker mouth, there always seems to be a few steps between brilliance and what Thackett comes up with. Fortunately he is a calm head in the middle of chaos. Chaos that his lack of foresight has often brought about.
I could take him. Frequently boasts that he is one of the greatest swordsmen in the land. However, none of his current crew have seen him do more than wave a sword around in anger. Everyone asked to confirm witness of this skill does so reluctantly.

Personality
Thackett is confident and well spoken. Sometimes too well spoken for a has-been thief with ideas above his station and too confident for how rarely he schemes come to fruition.
Its very difficult to make him angry, yet he has a habit of winding others up with misplaced humour.

Biography & Lore
Jeriah gives nearly everyone he meet a different story on his background. Some have been told he is a farm boy trying to make his fortune, others a frustrated merchant who decided to con everyone who wrong him in the past. Few of the stories hold up to much scrutiny.
He definitely does have connections with people across the continent but few of them speak highly of him. Thackett is known to be talented and a sharp mind, but far from reliable. Fortunately he is quite likable and manages to charm favours out of those who have had enough of his past failures.
Whilst his failures are numerous, the few successes have been quite spectacular. He worked with the gang that stole the Great Meister of Lindesfaan's throne during his birthday celebration. Ten years and three aliases ago he stole a set of casts from the Elbion mint.
