Personal Style: When down in the sewers with the Morlocks, he dresses in typical sort of style, jeans and a t-shirt, basically whatever they have on hand. Though since he tends to shift and morph to look like others and make supply runs, he also has quite the wardrobe selection, though if he looks like himself and he's up and about not down in the tunnels, he tends to like to wear suits of sorts, nice ones generally, it kind of is a force of habit by now.
Funny * Secretive * Caring * Flirty * Adaptable * Deceitful
Sexuality: Bisexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Jack is known to be a caring individual, no matter what happens really. He tends to show most of this towards his older half-brother Casper, in trying to keep him out of trouble to the best of his abilities. He's also tends to be on the secretive side, hiding his past somewhat from those around him, and trying to hide just about everything that has been going on in his life. Though he takes all of this in stride, and despite how grim things seem to be for the group of sorts, he always keeps a lighthearted tone, trying to make those around him laugh whenever possible.
When it comes to the way he acts, and because of the way he was raised, he is a bit on the flirtatious side, not hesitating to flirt with anyone if it helps him to get what he wants or needs. Whether it's information or any sort of thing like that, he likely can con someone into helping them. This is also helped by his adaptability, since he is use to potentially wearing many different faces when it comes to things, so he tends to be adaptable in most situations. Top that off with his ability to deceive those around him, and anyone else he wants to, and he's generally someone to turn to if you need someone to do something involving lying of sorts.

How did you discover your powers: Jack was younger than most when he discovered what his powers were. He was about 6 or so years old, when he was running around outside, playing. His pant leg got caught on a bush, but he didn't think much of it, whenever that happened, he generally just could pull at his pant leg and break free from the brush. However, this time around, that didn't happen, at all. Instead he had this weird feeling in his leg, and when he looked his leg had been stretched out, much much farther than should have been possible. As he learned more about his powers, he learned that aside from just stretching and things like that, he was able to morph his features to resemble the look of just about anyone he wanted to.
General History: Jack spent much of his childhood travelling between two homes, since his father was only in the picture part of the time, though his mother wasn't too much better about it. He was the youngest of four, but he was the only kid who had a different father then the other 3, so he did feel like a bit of an outcast in the family, but it didn't really matter too much to him, as long as he had some fun with his life. For half of his childhood, he lived at the Xavier Institute, as his mother was constantly doing work and moving around, so she left all her kids with the older children's father, Charles Xavier. Though during the summers, he went off to go live with his father, and he loved the summertime because of it. His father was a bit of a con artist, and Jack learned from a young age how powerful ones words could be if said in the right way.
He grew up somewhat close with his half-brother Casper, and hated what Xavier basically did to him. When he was 10 years old, because of the incident that happened with Casper, the family was moved down to New Orleans, far far away from Xavier's mansion. He did still spend time with his own father, and as he grew older, he even helped him out on a few of his father's jobs. When it was discovered that Jack could morph to look like just about anyone, his father used that to their advantage when it came to a job, and he didn't really mind it.
When Jacques became an adult, he realized that maybe his father's lifestyle wasn't one he wanted to do, but he'd rather help people out, so he became a private investigator, starting his own business as soon as he was able. This was a fun job for him, and sure, it wasn't the most profitable of jobs, but he enjoyed every moment of it. Though he did sometimes use his powers to make the job easier, he rarely did, preferring for the most part his own body, and the way he was supposed to be. Though there have been some instances in the past where he's had to help Casper out, something he never was too thrilled with having to do. Jack cares about his brother and understands why he might turn to drugs, but still, it was getting to be a bit much for him.
One day, while out on a case, Jack came across the Morlocks. He was following a lead, when he found himself down below the city streets in the Morlock tunnels. The group seemed to be in need of some help or something, and he found that soon, he'd be helping the group out with supply runs. He never had to get the branded M on his head, since he could easily morph his body to get rid of it or something, and it seemed somewhat pointless to do that. Luckily, Jacques hasn't had to give up his job as a private investigator, though this is a bit of an argument among a few of the Morlocks. His argument has always been that they shouldn't steal everything that they come across, since it might get a bit suspicious if that was happening constantly and it could eventually lead people down to the tunnels. So he uses his income to help pay for some things, but he isn't above using his skills as a con man o help steal more expensive things.
Character Quote: "Hey, come on, no need to argue, how about this, agree to disagree and I won't do something weird like make balloon animals with my hands or something."
