[b]Personality[/b]: Jack is usually quiet and contemplative, often finding himself overthinking everything. He’s independent and cautious, keeping to himself and finding little reason to clue others into his thoughts. He’s open minded, and quick to become emotionally invested, and not very good at hiding it- or hiding anything at all. He is also innovative and rebellious, and he can and will bend the rules to reach success.


[b]Abilities, Talents, Traits, Powers[/b]: 

With a background in exo-planetary work, Jack has picked up a variety of tips and tricks regarding xenobiology, alien geology, modern architecture, and a great range of complicated technologies. As a journalist, he’s become quite adept at digging up information and getting straight to the point.

He was a part-time musician in high-school and part way through college, and has notable skills as a singer and guitarist. He’s kept in practice still due to his love of music, though he never made it big enough to consider a full time career.

Jack’s home is nearly self-sufficient, supplying much of its own power through solar panels and growing his own food, giving him an eclectic mix of middling skill in both gardening and electrical maintenance.


[b]Augs:[/b] Cybernetic Lenses: Correct bad vision, minimally improve eyesight at range, in low light, and underwater.
 

[b]History[/b]: 

Jack was born in Melbourne, but later moved to San Francisco with his parents who became teachers at local universities. He spent much of his early years like any other kid, ignoring the fast approaching day that would come when he needed to pick a career. He muddled his way through college, switching majors often, before finally deciding that he could travel to distant planets and write articles about them, that such a job would be both doable and enjoyable.

After graduation he returned to Melbourne and began his career, hopping back and forth from Earth so another distant world and learning more about each one. His articles covered a wide variety of subjects, first starting simply with how a new colony was progressing, but then switching into increasingly complicated and dangerous subjects, such as new scientific discoveries and hostile alien species.

Jack best describes himself as a jack of all trades, knowing a lot about many different things, but not too much about any one subject.
