HELLO
my name is
JERICHO VERTAGREN

NOW, AT THE PRESENT TIME

• professional duellist
  Awarded the title of Supreme Dueller after his first World All-Star title, Jericho is an all-round, highly proficient duellist and is the current reigning champion of the British and Irish Open Dueling League who will be defending his title this November. He is particularly skilled at defensive and counterattack combinations, duels using solely non-verbal magic, and is exceptionally fast. Opponents have describe duelling Jericho to be akin to duelling with the wind. Officials, opponents, and fans alike not only praise his skills with a wand and limberness, but also his impeccable sportsmanship.
  
  Certified by the British Wizard Duelling Association in 2102 as a duelling coach and mentor, Jericho takes on 3 pupils under the age of 17 at a time. Previous pupils have gone on to become aurors and professional duellists themselves.
  
  Jericho previously taught a duelling seminar at Hogwarts in December 2106 and looks forward to seeing familiar faces and just how much those faces have come into their own since he last had the opportunity to meet them.
  
  
• animal fosterer & animal-assisted therapist
  While at the job fair representing the professional duellist field, it is also widely known that Jericho is an accomplished animal fosterer and animal-assisted therapist. Located on the ranch in Brockenhurst where he resides, farm animals such as horses, goats, pigs, chickens and cows are offered as therapeutic animals. Activities such as goat snuggling, horseback riding, horse grooming, cow cuddling, and and more are available to those seeking solace. The animals on the ranch are all mundane creatures that are a part of the ranch's second mission to rescue and secure a loving, safe, and permanent home for rescued farm animals.
  
  He is often spotted in public giving some of the ranch's pigs walks, particularly his favorite a teacup pig name Poppy.
