Post by Jack O. Trades on Dec 1, 2008 23:09:51 GMT -5
Name: Jack of all trades
Real name: Jack Trades (claims its pronounced Tra-day)
Age: 23
Race: Caucasian
Fantasy Race (for those not playing as a human)
Nationality: American
Economic Class: wealthy (Through near purely illegal means)
Gender Identity: male
Sexuality: His mind seldom comprehends the existence of sex, when asked he sticks with asexual though is himself truly unsure
Political Belief: anarchist
Religious Belief: Agnostic till borderline Nihilism, depends on his state of mind at the moment
Organization: Russian Mafia
Occupation: 'Jack of all trades' for the Mafia, serving no boss in particular he is hired for various things such as assassinations, clean up jobs, etc . When not on the job a hedonistic terrorist
Skills: Mad man: Insanity has done wonders for Jack, allowing him to think much swifter then a normal person is capable of. Including the prophetic moments of the red leaf he uses a swift and vastly intelligent mind to its greatest potential
Techno whiz: to ensure maximum efficiency in their pet project the mafia ensured he became proficient in various forms of technology the world over. Computer, machine, or vehicle he is capable of figuring out how it works and twist it to serve his purpose. Admittedly computer programming confuses him somewhat so although he will eventually figure it out, it will take time.
Marksman: As an agent of the mafia he was given training from the beginning to be able to fire a vast array of firearms as accurately as possibly. Admittedly he avoids using a gun himself as much as he can
Chemical genius: As time went on Jack needed more ways to entertain himself. So one day he took chemicals from a lab to which he later wiped from the face of the earth, it passed off as a lab accident, and found he had a unnatural knack for creating concoctions poisons, explosive material, and whatever captured his imagination. Given enough time Jack could turn almost any material into a weapon
Weaknesses: Weakened perception: due to the frantic shifting of his perception of the world he could go from calmly preparing to kill a target to perceiving the client as a traitor to forgetting what he was doing in the first place. Because of this his plans are always in a danger of unraveling and his perceived allies and friends could just as readily become his object of hate
Required instability: To Jack chaos became the norm. Chaos is the way the world is supposed to work. Therefore their has to be some form of chaos that by impulse it will change his perception. No matter the situation even to his own detriment, if he feels things are too calm he will be forced to act
Powers
Weapon While having a strong proficiency for a variety of weaponry carried always on his person is a variety of knives
Appearance:
The scars on his face were self inflicted, the face paint an homage to his idol in his captivity
Personality: Due to the various experiments, constant stream of narcotics and other factors has driven his mind into a frenzied continual state of euphoria. Unstable, violent, prone to unprovoked outbursts both verbal and physical, over responsive to actions. His personality is ruled by his current mind set which is liable to change frequently and often
story: Born in North America Jack was happy. Though his family was poor he always tried to have a smile whatever the circumstances of his life. Finally however the boy couldn't smile as his father finally succumb to the various radiation and pollutions of their home. As he returned home to find his wheezing old man he sat by his side until he breathed his last, the night filled with laughter instead of tears. For several days he wandered alone, in a delirium until he ran across a meeting of mobsters.
While one wanted to take Jack with him another simply wanted to kill him and be on their way. A third provided an alternative, they handed him one of their guns and said if he managed to kill the one who wanted his death - they would take him in and make use of him. Jack did more then that. Laughing hysterically he shot the man in the stomach and took pieces of metal from the debris to make a mask out of his face, the man wanted him dead and he paid for it.
With his mysterious benefactor introducing him to the underworld the pain began. They did make use of him, testing new drugs on the child found in the wastes. As time grew on they left him locked within a compound playing cartoons continuously to keep him calm only ever taking him out of his 'play room' to inject a new substance into his veins. The older he got the more extreme the experiments became. They wanted to create a super soldier to cause havoc to the manalists, they gained a madman. His captors grew increasingly worried as the drugs and toxins seemed to stop having any sort of effect on their hysterical test subject, or the fact his cartoons started to effect his behavior to a degree his favorite a clown from a incredibly old cartoon.
Finally his captors had to put their project to the test despite their concerns and it was a rousing success. Their little weapon blew up a manalist barrack creating a big enough distraction for a deal to go off without a hitch. As he made his way to return to the hide out he killed a soldier in boredom to the distress of his escort. After having his fun with the soldier he found a substance on his person that his escorts commanded him to surrender it. Annoyed with his jailers he ignored the shouts of how vital this "red leaf" was and proceeded to inhale the red powder. He never went back to the hideout. The drug itself gave Jack a moment of clairvoyance of which he has never truly recovered from. None but him know what the experience revealed to him but since then he had slowly grown more unstable.
For two years he seemed to disappear off the face of the earth. Until one day he seemed to come from nowhere his face scarred setting off several bombs in hospitals across Russia. Soon Jack who was once a prisoner of the mafia climbed the ranks paving the way in blood and chaos till there is seldom a member who did not hear rumors of the smiling madman. To this day he lives a life crime, excess and violence to a unknown end. All that is truly known is this - Jack of all trades has made his name known the world over, and he will never leave the spotlight.
