Jack appears to be a young, healthy man in his mid to late twenties. He stands tall at 5 feet 10 inches with an athletic, wiry build. His dark brown hair is cut short and is often times disheveled and uncombed. His face, while handsome, is often somber and serious, and very rarely clean shaven.

Jack is a very soft spoken individual if he chooses to speak at all. This isn't to say that he is antisocial; Jack can easily hold a conversation. He just tends to avoid or simply refuse to answer personal questions, especially those inquiring about his mortal life or his real/full name. One can always count on Jack to be honest, some would even call him blunt. He will say exactly what he is thinking without regards for anyone's personal feelings. While some see this as a flaw, others value Jack's direct, no nonsense attitude, viewing it as a remarkably rare quality in the Kindred of the modern nights.

As a Gangrel, Jack has acquired more than just physical signs of the beast within. His movements have at times been described as feral and predatory, like those of a wolf or panther stalking prey. His stare can cause great discomfort to some who say his bright yellow eyes seem to pierce right through them like a monster sizing up it's next meal. As a result of this obvious discomfort, Jack rarely maintains extended eye contact with any but those he knows well. Also, it is commonly said that Jack sometimes sniffs at the air around him or sniffs around other people as if trying to take in the scents of his environment. Strong odors (cigarette smoke, sulfur, strong perfumes/colognes, etc.) will sometimes cause him to wrinkle his nose in discomfort or even leave the immediate area.

Character Information

Very little is known of Jack's origins. From what little he has revealed about himself it is believed that he was born and raised somewhere up north in the New England states. He has no discernible accent to speak of and his mannerisms give little away in terms of upbringing. Some suspect that in his mortal years, Jack may have served in the military in some way. He carries a military style rucksack with him in his travels and exhibits skills and talents for wilderness survival as well as a working knowledge of first aid and emergency response that are not commonly taught to average civilians. When asked about this, Jack simply shrugs or flat out ignores the inquiry altogether.

Known History

January 31st 2015 - Jack arrives unexpectedly at a Gathering in the Annapolis domain. Before the night ends, he inquires about joining the Camarilla. Prince Rook placed Jack under Accounting...sort of. Jack has since remained in this state, learning what he can from his fellow Kindred and aiding the Domain in any way he can.

March 2015 - Jack travels north to the Domain of Baltimore where he visits some of his clan mates and establishes connections with them.

April 2015 - Prince Rook of Annapolis places Jack under a formal Accounting with the Archon Hannah Martin as his instructor.

Coterie

None

Allies

Jack tends to shy away from politics, preferring a more straightforward approach to things. He very rarely makes deals or offers boons. Instead, he prefers actual "friends" to "political allies". Even still, he is incredibly slow to trust, and keeps his circle of friends quite small.

Enemies

Besides the Sabbat, none that he knows of.

Sire

Wynona Windrunner - Sire (NPC)- Jack speaks very highly of his sire on the few occasions that the topic comes up. She is said to be a wild, spiritual woman of Native-American heritage who prefers the comfort and solitude of the wilderness to the hum drum of big cities and the tediousness of Kindred politics.

“Blóðvængr” - Grandsire (NPC)- Jack speaks of his Grandsire with great reverence. It is said that she is quite old, hailing from ancient Scandinavia. According to Jack, she is a fiercely religious woman who firmly follows the religious philosophies of the Aesir.

"Red Jeggred" - Great Grandsire (NPC)- Jack has no kind words for his Great Grandsire. He claims to never had the misfortune of meeting this ancient monster. Red Jeggred is considered a monster even by other Gangrel. It is said that he is nothing more than a ravenous monster, having gone mad ages ago. Now stories say he surfaces from time to time, slakes his thirst on the blood of other kindred, then disappears into the wilds. Some say this ravenous beast slumbers in torpor somewhere in the frozen wastes of the world and that he has grown incredibly powerful through the diablerie of several of his for-bearers. Jack has been told by both his sire and grandsire that when Jeggred finally awakens from his slumber to reek havoc again, he may be called upon to aid in the monster's destruction.
