Name: Jonah Johnson
Nickname: JJ
Nickname (which only your closest friends call you, and you maybe hate it): Swamp Water (first day at camp, he mixed Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew, Orange Juice and 'Mung' -- the Temu version of Tang-like juice that the camp serves, and threw up shortly afterward. It's the sort of thing that sticks.)
Age (down to the month -- seniority matters here): Ten (I'll be eleven in September!) One of the youngest campers, and knows it.
Siblings? Older sister, also a camper -- and this year, a junior counsellor, Margaret. (Megs. aka the antichrist.)
Family Life? The invisible child.
Fear: Spiders
Secret Fear: Nobody caring.
Size: Shrimp
Weapon: Walking stick / wizard's staff / lightsaber.
What does your character 'bring to the table?' Being the youngest, and likely in the running for the smallest, JJ feels he has to make up for it, and he does by being the first to volunteer for any mission, no matter how gross (see 'Swamp Water.') He is also everyone's best cheerleader, and next-to-impossible to bring down. He remains a force of positivity even in the most desperate of times. Secretly though -- he questions himself ALL the time, even if he won't let anyone else see it.
One of the following: Strong. Fast. Brave. Charismatic. Smart.
Dedicated. Tough.
Four things in the backpack: AAA maglite. (given to him by Dad right before camp. discovering it is endlessly useful.) Granola bars. (always takes the leftovers from afternoon snack.) A shoelace. (how did that get in there?) $.82 in nickels and dimes.
