Biography
Jeffrey Rhodes was born in Sector 22 of Esmeralda Prime, considered to be one of the most criminalized and destitute neighbourhoods. When he was three years old he was orphaned and brought to the Esmeraldan 22 Children’s Home where he met a young Vernon Tarsitano. At the age of five growing up in Sector 22, he and others in his orphanage are provided “charity” by the noble House Carpentier by granting them membership. The noble status provided him with an education, but he was later expelled for running a small drug trade.
Along with Vernon Tarsitano, he founds the infamous Santo Red Gang. In 5228, he is captured and convicted of assault by the local sub-prefect and sent to prison. Vernon dissolves the Santo Red gang and leaves Sector 22 for the Imperial Legion. At the age of sixteen, shortly after arriving in prison, he secretly manifest as a praepositan with the ability to manipulate magnetic fields. Upon being released from prison, he assumes the alias of Jefferson Baldwin. Upon discovering that his former friend, Vernon Tarsitano, has entered the Imperial Legion he follows him shortly afterwards under his new alias. Upon graduating from the academy, he becomes an accomplished Talon fighter pilot. In 5237, he reconnects with Vernon on the HMS Choi and reveals his new name and abilities to his old friend hoping to rekindle the Santo Red gang from within the Imperial Legion. During the Battle of Metron, Baldwin destroys the HMS Towers accidentally with his magnetic field while piloting his Talon. Baldwin is not suspected at first but following the war, Tarsitano decides to severe his ties with him and exposes his role in the incident and status as a praepositans. Baldwin faces a court-martial and is discharged from the Imperial Legion. Baldwin spends the next fifteen years in prison.
Upon his release, he returns to Sector 22 of Esmeralda Prime and becomes a prominent and popular gladiator. From here, he begins to build his criminal network. He secretly begins backing Tarsitano’s political career by making financial contributions to his campaign in the hopes of leveraging their former association against him. In 5265, he is the leader of a vast criminal organization and gang of other praepositans known as Pestilence. He is directly responsible for poisoning of Emperor Labelle III that leads to his heart failure. He is the enemy of Tay al-Ard and Pamlico.

Beneath his affable facade, he is cruel, sadistic, and merciless. He appears to be quite vengeful. Baldwin also has no problem killing children. He is cutthroat and sadistic, taking great pleasure in his work as a career criminal. Baldwin has shown great enjoyment in harming others just for the sake of his own satisfaction.
