[color=black][h3][u][b]   APPEARANCE       [/b][/u][/h3]
[i]"Kiss my leather and denim ass."[/i][/color]

[indent][indent]Copper-brown hair slicks loosely back above a bronze complexion; hazel eyes glimmer between stacked lashes; and a crease between his brows are making it’s permanence from his continuous smolder. A cigarette is lit. Puffing smoke between his gentle lips and straight teeth helps layer his nonchalance with a bad boy charm. Jed stands with a simple slouch, his broad frame accentuated by his signature leather jacket. Standing tall, he enjoys towering over the many women he effortlessly wins over.

Without much of any flaws to pinpoint on the otherwise male model, Jed was raised on a foundation of insecurities. Since he was young, he’s combated them with his care-free persona. Though puberty did him well, granting him a unique charm that he decides to relish in rather than humble over. Jed has come to perfect his mannerisms in a way that gets him what he wants most of the time. A sly wink and a reveal of his dimple is how he starts, leading to a wildly seductive touch and a tantalizing rasp to his voice.

Jed’s revolves around simplicity. White and black tee’s dominate his dresser, and denim jeans are all he wears. His jackets are all leather or denim. Generally, he wouldn’t be seen in anything but these clothing choices, but occasionally you can catch him in a sweatshirt and gym shorts if he decides to work out.

Get to know him a little more and you’ll find his Prince Albert.[/indent][/indent]

[color=black][h3][u][b]    PSYCHOLOGY       [/b][/u][/h3]
[i]"I know what I want and I get what I want."[/i][/color]

[indent][indent][indent]

[color=purple][b]MAIN GOAL  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Though Jed would never admit it, he seeks direction. Growing up, he’s lived his life without any ambition or true goals. Now, he looks for something to give his life some form of semblance. He’s lived many days being lost, and now he searches for something that’ll give him hope for a fulfilling future.

[color=purple][b]WHAT THEY WANT OUT OF THE COVEN  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed has known of his supernatural roots since a young age. Perfecting this talent of his would give him hope to be a part of something that isn’t insignificant. Initially, Jed joined the coven in hopes to better his knowledge with the supernatural, but as he’s spent more time within the coven, he’s seen a flicker of a foreseeable future that has something he desires: a home. While the coven could sometimes be considered his home, he tries not to hold out for such an idea to save himself from being let down.

[color=purple][b]PHILOSOPHY  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Everyone has ulterior motives. Happiness is a greedy thing. People use each other for their own benefit. Don’t get lost in trust or you’ll end up broken.

[color=purple][b]SECRETS  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed wants love. Ultimately, he lives his life without making any significant bond or connection. He’s broken many hearts and he’s torn many friendships for the sake of independence. He fears the vulnerability of love, but craves it at the same time.

[color=purple][b]SEXUALITY  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Bisexual

[color=purple][b]FEARS  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed fears failure and humiliation. Due to this, he participates little in things he doubts himself in. He attempts to perfect things in secret to act like he’s naturally good at things.

[color=purple][b]REPUTATION  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed is a mystery to everyone. He’s the bartender at a popular club, known for taking mostly women (and some men) back to his apartment for a one-night stand. Word on the street is he’s got a whole lot of action going on in between the sheets, but beyond that is locked for nobody to see.

[color=purple][b]FLAWS  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed tries to accomplish everything he does on his own. Being a part of the coven has been something that is beginning to change this part of himself, though he is still distant with his fellow coven-members. From this, he’s been limited on what he can achieve simply because he doesn’t want the help of others.

[color=black][h3][u][b]   BACKSTORY      [/b][/u][/h3]
[i]"I don’t care if we’re alike, don’t compare me to him."[/i][/color]

[indent][indent]Jed was born from instability and into abuse. It wasn’t uncommon for Jed to show up to school with a black eye or bruises marking his body. His father was many things: a man-whore, an asshole, a manipulator, and an adept. For Jed, he’s grown up on many things that the average child didn’t. He was taught of substance abuse at a young age, but knew not to delve into it after seeing the results of it on his father. He was introduced to a new woman almost every week, each reeking of alcohol with smudging makeup and tousled hair. What angered him the most is how often they turned a blind eye to the beatings he’d get and the verbal abuse he’d become crushed from. This is the root of Jed’s mystery, the very first layer of his personality that soon stacked high enough to touch the clouds.

Jed missed school a lot, but turned to his kindling-event to further learn from. As his father used his abilities for crime and for self-pleasure, Jed learned from a special ancestor in his dreams. Jed’s dream sparked with the anticipation of a fight with his father, ending with bruises and cuts on his body and a cold shower to wash them off. His grandmother came to him in his dreams, and she taught him so much. Her one wish she urged the most was her desire for him to steer away from the footsteps of his father. But your parents have a way of bleeding their negative qualities onto you.

Jed couldn’t take the grunge of the torn wallpapers and the stained carpets. He couldn’t take the empty liquor bottles that scattered throughout the dimly-lit apartment. He couldn’t take the unexpected beatings and the cold showers he’d shiver from for hours. One last night of no sleep, and he was out the door without a word in the morning. His grandmother’s wish only held him together for so long until he’d succumb to his father’s ways. 

He practiced his powers hard, turning to them as his saving grace in a time where he was alone. A watch with a broken, shattered clock became his channeler: a small treasure he bought himself, but broken from what was always anticipated. Jed used his abilities to steal money, to finesse his way into areas he normally wouldn’t be allowed in, and that’s what he did until he got a car and his own place.

Jed then became clad in his own achieved behaviors, though they were intertwined by his dark past. He’s lost a lot of compassion and a lot of empathy through living the life he’s lived, but times are coming to a plateau. What rise he had from his self-discovery and his moment of independence is beginning to fade and he’s searching for the next step. He gave up the stealing and the abuse of his powers to try to live a normal life. He works as a bartender at a club and delves in his hobbies in the meantime. Life was becoming bleak. Strange. 

Jed finally came across the coven, in hopes that this would be the appropriate next step for him. But with only his own instincts to rely on, he’s very unsure about his participation. Still, he strangely looks forward to the connections he’s building, however slow and faint they’re establishing. To them, he’s a mystery, but he’s unsure if he wants to be solved. [/indent][/indent]

[color=black][h3][u][b]   SKILLS & TALENTS      [/b][/u][/h3]
[i]"I may not have a diploma, but I’m still useful."[/i][/color]

[indent][indent][indent]

[color=purple][b][Racing]  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] One of Jed’s many hobbies that he’s turned into a talent of his. Jed is great at operating most vehicles and understanding the limits of their speed and acceleration. From extensive participation in drag racing, he’s come to know the in’s and out’s of what special tricks you can do with a car. Put him behind the wheel and you’ll get where you need to go faster than you could ever get there; just bring some anti-nausea medicine.

[color=purple][b][Charm]  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed is skilled at charming someone. He’s very good with his words and his mannerisms are seductive enough to allure someone smoothly. If his victim isn’t as susceptible, it’s still enough to get them distracted for longer than usual.

[color=purple][b][Street-fighter]  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed has been out on the streets since his early teens. With an instigating, competitive personality, he’s an invitation for fights. He’s been in several fights, not all being in his favor, and has come out mostly victorious.

[color=purple][b]TYPE  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Adept

[color=purple][b]ABSTRACTION [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Purple [color=black]|[/color] A broken, silver watch.

[color=purple][b]ABSTRACTION DESCRIPTION  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed’s focus within his light domain is telekinesis. He delves in teleportation as well, but portaling is something that he hasn’t come to learn yet.

[color=purple][b]AURA SENSING  [color=black]⫻[/color][/b][/color] Jed is able to see fearful and cautionary auras well. When in a space in which someone of that particular aura has passed, he can sense the previous activity within the spot. If there was a particular reason in which the fear or caution had risen, the presence of the aura will be strengthened and much easier to decipher.
