[OOC] 30 Days of Character Development - Day 1
I did this meme on kalel_ofkrypton and liked it a lot, so I decided to do it for Jack too. I'm actually going to be doing two separate 30-day memes for him, but I'll put them both in the same entry so I'm not spamming your friends lists. I also have a bigass superdetailed profile I'm doing up for him that I also did for Clark, but that will take longer.
Describe your character’s relationship with their mother or their father, or both. Was it good? Bad? Were they spoiled rotten, ignored? Do they still get along now, or no?
Jack's father Franklin was as close to entirely human as you get in the 51st century, but his mother Ruby had enough alien genetics that she required gene therapy through both her pregnancies to deliver healthy children. Both Jaxom and his little brother Grayson were prized by their parents, who wanted to raise them to be good, hard-working people with stable lives. Unfortunately due to alien invasion when Jack was fourteen, Franklin died and Gray disappeared, so Jack joined the military and was away from home for almost all of the rest of his life. He did get to travel back home to say goodbye to his mother and they parted on good, though painful, terms.
Basics and cosmetic:
Age? Jack is currently 38 years old.
Date of Birth? He was born in 5066 by Earth's calendar, though it was on a colony world so the date itself is difficult to convert. It was late spring by Boeshane's calendar.
Hair color? Blond when he was younger, but years of space travel and being out of constant sunlight has darkened it to brown.
Eye color? Blue
Skin color/nationality? White Boeshani, descended from an offshoot colony group called Nemericans, who in turn trace their roots back to the ancient United States.
Accent (if any)? The closest approximation is Midwest American.
Height? Six feet (1.83 meters)
Weight? About 180 pounds (81kg/12.8st)
Tattoos? None
Piercings? Also none
Birthmarks? Noooone
Disfigurements? Nope
Scars? Jack has a surgical scar on his lower abdomen that's only visible when he gets a deep tan.
Do they have any nicknames? Where did they come from? Jack was voted the Time Agency's Rear of the Year 5094 by his fellow Agents.
