Jarred who?

Wikipedia is your friend:

As a child, Jarred was the son of a loyal servant who had died in the service of King Alton. He was given to Prince Endon as a friend and playmate, and the two boys became like brothers. However, upon Endon's coronation, he tried to persuade Endon that the palace was living a lie and that the royal family had grown stale after centuries of stiff traditions. He was accused of trying to corrupt Endon and banished from the palace. He moved to the city of Del and was taken in by Crian the blacksmith. He married Crian's granddaughter, Anna, and took over the family business when Crian grew old, and later died.
When the Shadowlord invaded Deltora, Jarred helped his old friend Endon escape the palace with his wife Sharn, and formed a plan, by which Endon and Sharn would take the identities of Jarred and Anna. They would raise their child in safety, while Jarred and Anna fled Del for The Forests of Silence. Here, Jarred and Anna raised their daughter, Jasmine, until they were captured by Grey Guards.
They were taken to the Shadowlands. While Anna died, Jarred was taken to the Shadow Arena to fight Vraal, due to his strength from years of blacksmith work. He managed to escape from the Arena, but lost his memory. He escaped from the Shadowlands with the Vraal and Grey Guards in pursuit. He fought them again on Dread Mountain, but was gravely injured. Making his way to Kinrest, he met an old hermit called Doom of the Hills. Doom nursed Jarred back to health, but was later killed by the remaining Grey Guards. Jarred, strong once more, killed the Grey Guards, buried Doom and took his name for himself.
During his travels, he came across Fardeep of the Valley of the Lost, and accepted his challenge to gain the great diamond. Fardeep pretended to be Endon, the previous King, and Doom believed that the King had betrayed Deltora and sold his soul to the Shadowlord. He lost all hope and faith in the royal family, and turned his back on the diamond. He established the Deltora Resistance as a means of defying the Shadow Lord through physical force, rather than magic.
Years later, he came across Lief, Barda and Jasmine when the four competed at the Rithmere Games. Doom was competing with the aim of exposing the Games as a means of soughting out great fighters and taking them to the Shadowlands. He fought Jasmine in the final before (supposedly) faking a loss to witness Lief, Barda and Jasmine being captured by Grey Guards. He rescued the three and asked them to join the Resistance, but they refused.
They came across each other again when Lief, Barda and Jasmine were taken to the Resistance Stronghold by Dain, a Shadow Lord spy infiltrating the Resistance. Doom imprisoned the three companions on the basis of ensuring that they were not shape-shifting Ols, but rather wanted them to join the Resistance. Lief, Barda and Jasmine escaped with Dain.
Again, the four were reunited when Doom arrived at Tora to find Dain, and accompanied by Neridah. He was forced to enter the gates of Tora to prove his loyalty to Lief, and became disoriented - not because he was an enemy, but because his mind and heart had been consumed by a dreadful combination of bitterness, anger, sadness and regret.
Doom joined forces with Lief, Barda and Jasmine against the Shadow Lord after Lief purified the Valley of the Lost, and revealed Fardeep's true identity as being a hermit from Rithmere, rather than King Endon. They began to formulate a plan together using Doom's knowledge to uncover the true heir of Deltora.
During a battle with Dain in Del, Doom was struck in the head and regained his memory. He recognized Jasmine as his daughter, and Lief took this to mean that Doom was really Endon and Jasmine was the true heir of Deltora. However, he was eventually revealed to be Jarred, and joins the new royal court as one of Lief's advisors. Despite that his true identity has been revealed, he is still called 'Doom'.
When the people of Deltora began clamouring for Lief to lead a rescue mission to the Shadowlands to free Deltoran prisoners and slaves, Doom and Lief begin scheming for a plan to both rescue the prisoners and preserve the royal bloodline. They painstakingly researched Adin's royal bloodline and forged a fake Belt of Deltora. They found Marilen, of Tora, and brought her to Del to wear and protect the real Belt of Deltora while Lief wore the false one. While Lief and Barda journeyed into the underground in search of Jasmine, Doom stayed behind to watch over Marilen as well as oversee operations in the castle.
He remained once more in the castle during Lief, Barda and Jasmine's third quest, this time to destroy the Four Sisters. At the end of this quest, he relinquished his position to Ranesh, opting to travel across Deltora, and discover whether it was possible for a dragon to lay an egg without a mate!
