[b]Backstory:[/b] 
Jack was orphaned at a young age. His family were travelling merchants, but on their way through Levis they were caught in a rock slide. He only survived due to the actions of his mother, who threw him under a thorn bush which prevented him from getting crushed.
Later he was found by the dwarves who were clearing the road. Seeing as he was an orphan, one of the dwarves in a happy, but childless, marriage decided to adopt him. They named him Droigheann, or Thorn in their tongue, after where he was found.
Raised in the dwarf way, a lot of alcohol and fighting, Thorn grew up with both a high endurance and an appreciation for the past.
For a time, he tried becoming a priest of Rava, but the wanderlust he inherited from his birth parents made staying in one place unappealing to him. The head priest informed him of a job he could take, that of a treasure hunter. Retrieving fragments of the past and shedding new light on it. He was 15 at the time.
Over the next 14 years, he made a name for himself as a Treasure Hunter. He began to refer to himself as the Jack due to the size of his magical heart being too small to be more than adapt in magic. Due to some errors in literacy, The Jack Thorn became Jack Thorne when he signed up to the League. Seeing as dealing with the paperwork would be too much effort, he decided to keep the name. He felt it suited him.
During one of his excursions, he came across an artifact designed to mimic a Mana Heart, allowing him to be a more effective caster. It became a permanent part of his body during a delve into a ruin with a greenhorn. The idiot activated a crushing trap, killing him and trapping Jack's arm. Though he managed to disarm the trap with his Legerdemain spell, his hand had been crushed and the amulet forced into it. While not the first time he had failed, it was the closest he had come to death so far, and it wasn't even down to his actions. 
Since the incident, he has been working alone, unwilling to put up with the bullshit of other people.

[b]Abilities:[/b] (Physical, Magical, or Both)
As a Panther Half-Beast, Jack has the natural bonuses that come with his race. Namely he has enhanced reflexes and flexibility, claws that allow for easy climbing, and enhanced night vision. He is also ambidextrous.
His constitution is higher than average for his species, due in no small part to being raised by Dwarves and their lax stance on alcohol.
He was trained to play to his strengths, being weaker but more agile than the Dwarves, coming up with an aggressive style that aims to keep opponents off balance.
As a treasure hunter, he has a wide knowledge of history, able to identify the purpose and the builder of most ruins he enters. He also has a vast knowledge of magic, born out of necessity considering the sheer amount of magical bullshit he finds himself encountering in his profession.
Initially he had some training as a Priest of Rava, but with his decision to become a treasure hunter he moved into learning more generically useful magic. He has a series of spells he can cast, along with a few rituals. His magical heart is about 70% the size of his heart, with the artificial one he has being about 33%. Combined, he has enough power to be considered a magus, but he lacks the training of others with a naturally larger heart.
