Jasper is the sort of girl that knows what she wants, and she won’t stop until she gets it - rather it be a person, or an item. A very possessive girl, she has a problem with taking no for an answer. Jasper is also a very blunt person, always saying things the way that she sees them. She’s known to be a major bitch, and even cold-hearted at times. More often than not, it seems that she is only looking out for her own well being - though that is not entirely the truth, as she does care for her brother and maybe like one other person.

Most of the time, Jasper is rude and sarcastic. An opinionated woman, she is never one to hold back what she's thinking. If it pops into her brain - she's saying it. While she tends to have more enemies than friends, there are a few people that she holds close to her heart and that she would do just about anything for. Flirtatious as can be, Jasper sees people as play things. `Seduce and destroy` is her motto. Once she's gotten what she needs, or actually holds another person's interest, she tends to become uninterested. This has led to many one night stands, tons of broken hearts, and quite a few enemies. While she enjoys the chase, Jasper has begin to wonder if perhaps she also has some trouble with commitment.

Jasper's past is something that she always tries her hardest not to talk about.

Jasper and her twin brother Tiberius were born into an already failing marriage. Two young people married before they ever really had the chance to know one another, it didn't take long for Marie and Nicholas to realize that their marriage was failing. Despite her husbands cold demeanor, Marie did love him, and in one last, desperate attempt to get her husband to stay - they decided to have a baby. Nicholas wanted one child - One son. Jasper was the surprise - but obviously not a happy one.

In their haste to try and save their marriage, Jaspers parents failed to realize just how much responsibility having children was. Bounced around from Nanny to Nanny during their early childhood, Marie and Nicholas were always focusing on their careers more than their family. When a car crash caused Marie to break her left leg, the woman gave up her modeling career, convinced that it was the end of the world. By the time that her leg was healed, Marie had began to drink heavily and became addicted to the pain pills that the doctor had prescribed her. Being stuck at home with her children made her begin to hate them. One last failed attempt to find a caregiver for his children, Nicholas finally found a nanny named Rosalinda, who took great care of the kids. While she wasn't a replacement for Jaspers parents, she did help the kids in many ways.

Rosalinda is who Jasper has to thank for her ability to play the violin and guitar. She also owes the woman for sheltering her and her brother from their parents arguments.

Obsessed with her own body image, when Jasper hit the age of thirteen, her mother began to hound her over her weight. Beginning to grow into her body shape more now with puberty, Jasper did need new clothes every now and then - but she was by no means overweight. Sadly, Marie didn't look at it the same way. She wanted her daughter to follow in her modeling footsteps, and how was she supposed to do that by being anything other than thin?

From the age of thirteen until she was sixteen, Jasper was constantly told that she was fat, overweight, and even ugly. Her mother constantly pointed out the smallest details: how she talked, walked, ate, styled her hair - Marie was sure to use every aspect of her daughters existence against her.

Jasper knew that she would never be a model like her mother, and that didn't bother her. What did bother her, however, was the fact that her mother would do things to make Jasper feel fat.

Jasper can recall multiple occasions where her mother would buy clothes that were too small for her and expect her to be able to fit them. When she couldn't, Jasper was more or less forced to exercise at home, and eat small portions of so-called healthy foods. Ty did his best to make his sister feel more valid in her own skin, but he could only do so much. While their mother was mentally and verbally abusive, their father was physically. Ty took the brunt of most of their fathers rages for her.

By the age of fourteen, Jasper had begun to develop an eating disorder. She would go days without eating only to gorge herself and ultimately feel guilty and make herself sick. When Marie found out, she was more than sure to let her daughter know that she thought she was a freak.

"If you didn't eat all the time, and actually followed the exercise, it wouldn't be so hard for you to be thin," she would say.

Her mother - to everyone's surprise - actually put her daughter into therapy. While Marie’s reasoning behind this was to save the family image, she wasn’t shy when it came to accepting the praise for ‘doing the right thing.’ Jasper stood by, watching Marie become mother of the year for doing the most basic thing - and this only upset her more.

While it took three years of therapy and her mothers eventual death to overcome her eating disorder, Jasper was more than grateful for her brother and Rosalinda being there for her in every way that they could be.

School was hell in it’s own way for Jasper. Kings Academy was an escape in it’s own way, but held different horrors. Jasper's greatest silver lining during her early years was her high school boyfriend - Nathaniel Blake.

Nate was - and still is - an amazing man. They were one of the star couples of Kings Academy in their own way. Setting an example for others with the way they loved each other, Nate and Jaspers relationship would end shortly after senior year.

Nate had spent weeks saving up and planning to propose to Jasper on prom night - and he did exactly that in perfect Nate fashion. A flash mob, music, the one knee - Nate truly had gone the extra mile for her. Unfortunately, Jasper didn’t appreciate it in the way that Nate thought she would.

While watching her boyfriend perform anything was always an excitement, Jasper had always hated huge displays of affection. Nate had helped her with that over the years, but she felt as if he had went to far that night. Dragging the young man off of the dance floor, the two of them quickly had a quiet discussion in the corner while the rest of Prom carried on around them.

Jasper didn’t want to see their relationship end, but she wasn’t ready for marriage. She wanted a career, and to explore the world. While Palm Beach was nice, she knew there was more to see in the world, and she dreamed to see as much of it as possible. Explaining all of this to Nate, the young couple agreed to stay together and perhaps get married one day when they were both ready.

Graduation happened, and so did college. They tried the long distance thing for a few weeks, but ultimately Nate and Jasper had been growing apart ever since the proposal. While they still loved each other, there was a sense of unease in the relationship now that neither of them could shake. Deciding to end things, the two of them kept in touch here and there over the years, and even crossed paths here and there when Jasper would come back home to visit. Each time she has seen his face, it’s just reminded her of the past - and the past is something that Jasper Delamar plans to forget until the very end.

Going to Meadow University with her brother Tiberius, Jasper gradguated college with her Culinary degree. From there, she moved to New York, where she has lived ever since.

Jasper has spent the years since high school traveling the world just as she always intended, indulging in all of the finer things life has to offer - music, wine, food, art…

In a lot of ways, Jasper is happier now. She now owns and operates her own five star resturaunt in New York, and is getting ready to open another in LA. Her show on Food Network, ‘City Life Cuisine’ is set to air next summer.

Despite her accomplishments, Jasper still cannot deny that she is haunted by her past. While she is excited for the reunion, Jasper is not excited for the past to come flooding back.

-Her only immediate living family is her brother Tiberius, her nieces, and her nephew.
-Some of her biggest pet peeves are people talking while eating, smacking, and not chewing with their mouth closed.
-Her favorite color is obviously black. She doesn't see it or her clothing choice as being edgy, but more as a way to define herself. She doesn't do it for attention, though some people may think otherwise.
-Has a soft spot for dogs.
-Likes summer the most.
-Most of her personal playlist is classic rock, with some metal mixed in. Jasper doesn't mind listening to the popular stations on the radio, but finds most 'popular' songs to not be enjoyable. You can also find various artists like Fleetwood Mac and Elton John on the list.
-Plays the violin and guitar.
-Always has a pack of strawberry flavored gum in her possession.
- Love Me Dead by Ludo tickles my earholes.
