Liam Jones

Liam Jones is a citizen of Fablebrooke, and formerly of The Crown.

Early Life
Liam Jones was born in a small village on the outskirts of The Crown to Brennan Jones and Lillian Collingwood, the second wife of Brennan Jones. Liam is the younger half brother of Captain Liam Jones Sr and Captain Killian "Hook" Jones. At some stage of his early childhood, Liam lost his mother and was raised solely by his father, who owned a tavern near the town of Chestnut.

Not much is known about Liam's early life until Brennan's death. Brennan was killed by Liam's estranged older brother Killian Jones. Liam was subsequently attacked by Killian, who carved his hook down the left-side of Liam's face thus physically scarring him for life.

Liam was briefly taken in by a family friend who later registered him, along with a donation from the sale of the tavern, with the charity Wards and Foundlings of the Crown ("WFC"). The charity aimed to sponsor the education and occupation of orphan children throughout the country. As Liam was literate due to homeschooling, he attained a scholarship at the Crown Royal Naval Academy where he received an education and subsequent commission into the Navy.

When he was twelve, Liam was introduced to Laura Butler, who sat on the board of the WFC and her husband, Captain William Butler (later promoted to Admiral). At the age of fourteen, Liam was registered as their ward and they, his legal guardians.

Early Naval Career
Between the ages of twelve and sixteen, Liam sailed on numerous voyages as part of his ongoing naval education. His first formal voyage was aboard the HMS Juno, in which he served as Midshipman under the command of Admiral Butler.
