Character Sheet:


Full Name: Jetison Eugene Black


Nicknames: Jet (the rest of what he's been called are all insults toward him ranging from demon to rapist to ass pirate to Quasimodo to freak of nature & so on)


Race: Human (more or less)


Gender: Male


Age: 41


Hair: Light brown (but can be mistaken for a dark dirty blonde in the right light)


Skin: On his body = Caucasian; On his wings = brown & leathery


Eyes: Right eye = hazel; Left eye = missing


Height: 6'8"


Weight: about 250lbs. (give or take)


Wingspan: 14'


Appearance: Jet is tall with an athletic build. His hair is short in a messy type style which is visible from under his cap usually when he doesn't have it slicked back. He has a type of laid back style but can clean up quite nicely. Protruding from about the middle of his upper back is gargoyle like wings with hand like claws on the tips much like a bat. His wings are covered in a brown leathery skin which is a sharp contrast to his pale skin. The place on his back where his wings connect is also covered with the same brown skin & is the only place on his back where his spin is prominent & noticeable. He has three parallel scars across his face that start on the upper left side & end on the lower right. The middle scar goes through where his left eye once was. Sometimes his wings are rolled up on his back under his shirt which gives him the appearance of being a humpback.


Place of Residence: The Ruins


Place of Birth: In a mansion in the middle of what is now the ruins back in a time before the world was destroyed & divided


Fashion of Choice: Jet usually wears a baseball cap, jeans, sneakers, & a black eye patch over his left eye. But when he dresses up he usually wears either jeans or dress slacks, dress boots, a button up shirt that's neatly tucked in, a vest/brace contraption under his shirt that was designed to keep his wings rolled up to hide them, a fake eye, & makeup to hide his scars


Armor of Choice: None


Weapons of Choice: Fists, Claws, or whatever is available in a fight


Special Abilities: Flight (because of his wings), Climbing (he uses his claws to rip out chunks of buildings or whatever he's climbing to make hand & foot holds for himself as his claws are very strong & can dig into brick or concrete easily), Screeching (he has a demonic bird-of-prey type shriek, but he can't control when it happens or the pitch of it. It usually happens during extreme emotion [sadness, pleasure, anger, fear, etc.] & the pitch can range anywhere from just loud & annoying to glass shattering ear piercing skull fracturing)


Alignment: None... Yet


Sexuality: Unknown


Personality Overall: Jet is a bundle of emotion. He can be a gentleman or a jerk. He gets attached easily to people, weather he likes them or not. He can also be a very touchy feely type person. He has bouts where he can snap at any moment & his personality can change quicker than a pin can drop. He can easily go from being a very likable friendly guy to being a very hated & feared man. & the slightest little thing can set him off or calm him down. He doesn't have a high opinion of women & it takes him a while to trust them as opposed to men.


Positive Personality Traits: Can be sweet, caring, kind, fun-loving


Negative Personality Traits: Mood swings, can be a jerk, has low opinion of women, self conscious about his appearance


Misc. Quirks: Jet himself is a misc. quirk.


Interests: He has a natural curious nature which can be said he's a kid/teen in an adult body. That being said, he takes interests in things or people, sometimes getting him into trouble.


Likes: Oldies music, video games, cars (his anyway or at least the one he used to have), adult entertainment, & older technology (like 8-track & record players)


Dislikes: People who treat him like a kid, who make fun of him, or who try to control him in some way


History: Jet was born in a time before the war to a normal human couple, the Blacks. The Blacks were your typical rich couple who shunned anyone who was different &/or poor. When Mrs. Black became pregnant the news hit the papers. When she was told that her child would be born with a 'deformity' she had no idea what to expect. What she got was a winged newborn. Disgusted by this the Blacks blamed each other's bloodline & traced their family tree back as far as they could, only to find no other member with the same discrepancy. They had tried to get the boy's wings removed, but they're connected to his spine. The Blacks had no luck finding a doctor, for any amount of money, that would sever an otherwise healthy infant's spine for purely cosmetic reasons. So a device was created for him to wear under his clothes in order to hide his wings from the world, which constantly needed adjusted as his wings grew with him. The passed him off as a humpback. After all, it was better to have a deformed human child than a freak of nature.


Jet lived his life as a humpback, never understanding why he couldn't show the world who he really was, but accepting it nonetheless. He spent most of his time with his mother's servants, learning things like cooking, cleaning, driving, & other useful skills a rich boy shouldn't need. His mother always put him down, telling him how awful & horrid his wings were & how if his claws hadn't have torn up her birth canal disabling her ability to have more children that they would've put him down & tried again.


Eventually, Jet met a woman whom he thought would be the love of his life. They married, despite his mother's protests that she was a lowly day care teacher. He didn't even tell her about his wings until their honeymoon, leading her to believe that he was in fact a humpback. That night she became his first & was furious with his parents for suppressing him. It was because of her he learned to fly & use his wings in the first place. All was right with his world.


One day he came home early, having taken a job to get out of his mother's shadow, not wanting to be a spoiled rich boy. His thought was his wife wouldn't be home. Imagine his surprise when he found out she was not only home, but in a very compromising position with another man on their couch. Needless to say an argument ensued. The argument got so out of control that out of frustration she picked up a hand cultivator & swung it at Jet. The gardening tool raked across his face, leaving him scared & his left eye so severely damaged nerves & all had to be removed.


He was willing to take her back after her cheating. He was willing to take her back after she scared him. He was willing to take her back despite losing his eye. But he wasn't even quite out of the hospital yet when he was served with divorce papers. It sent him over the edge & caused him to have a nervous breakdown. He snapped & went completely insane.


Once out of the hospital he decided to take what he believed was rightfully his. He followed her to her job & once the kids were all outside playing he cornered her in her classroom & raped her, making her his first victim.


He was caught & placed in a mental institution. Thanks in part to his mother's money & her requests, they never checked under his shirt & thus had no idea he even had wings. Eventually, he flew out of the place when his meal was served. He would have moments of rage where he would rape any woman he could & moments of clarity where he'd realize what he was doing was wrong. Slowly he started to believe that the women were 'asking for it' & that they 'got what they deserved', which is his belief today. The media, not connecting him to the rapes yet, dubbed him the 'demon rapist' on account of his wings & appearance.


Eventually he was caught again & placed back in the institute. He was ordered therapy & liquid castration medicine. Upon his release he was also ordered to be on a form of house arrest. He would have bouts where he would have to be held down & drug off to be locked in his room. This is where he developed his shriek. It had more than likely been something he was born with that his mother had suppressed. But now there was no suppressing it & he couldn't control it.


The therapy didn't fully help. His mind is still not as it once was. The liquid castration had left him with a case of erectile dysfunction that can't be helped without medicine. (it would have to be something or someone pretty hot to make him 'stand & salute' naturally). He moved in with a group of other misfits, but never could quite get out of his mother's shadow.


She had paid off his victims to ensure no children were born to him, but being as how she had no grandchildren she needed a way to continue the Black family name after she would leave this earth as she was getting up in years. While on a visit to her place she drugged him & had him placed in a cryogenics chamber, thus freezing him in time to continue on her legacy.


Now, about a century later he has been awoken in this time, this place, to find everything around him destroyed. To find those he once loved long gone. He has taken up residence in his mother's mansion, that is now in ruins along with the rest of the city. He wanders this futuristic land alone. His shrieks of sorrow & rage can sometimes be heard throughout the land.
 
LOL, not too many people tend to feel bad for rapists. But I guess it's different when you know the story behind why they do what they do & what made them who they are in the first place.
 
Well! ...-sigh- Its not the rapist part I feel bad for. That part I despise because I can relate at least a little bit to it... but anyways, its all the rest that is sad.
 
Bah. Once you are accepted, usually you can just post. :) You can ask for guidance of course, if you are stuck.

[MENTION=4382]Seveer[/MENTION] While i have NO say in the matter, I like him, though I personally would like to hear more about his past, yet at the same time I understand how it could be difficult to write much more than that about a 14 year old...This is why I can never be in charge of anything >.< but anyway, my two cents...Good job :D
 
I know I really wanted to expand on it but it would either be too long in my opinion or too short xD
