What did I just get myself into?
Jamessen “Jimmy” Lee Beltran
~ Age ~19
~ Species/Race ~Human
~ Background ~Jimmy is an outsider to the city of Alengras, and hails from a peculiar region. Where he is from, humanity has been disconnected from the realms of magic and the supernatural. Whether due to age-old and long since dead feuds between humanity and their fantastical counterparts, or the humans not being ready to process such things existing, or the simple fact that no magical entities have resided nearby in generations, such areas see normal humans going about their lives none the wiser of the wondrous elements just beyond their boundaries. Centuries of industrial progress has clouded the minds of generations, rendering them incapable of even perceiving many of the beings that boast mystical and magical properties; those that these humans might still see tend to keep their true nature underwraps.
Having come from such a place, Jimmy’s exposure to the extraordinary and paranormal has been confined entirely to the works of fiction that his society has produced from the legends and myths that were, in days immemorial, as real as the air they breathed. He has found his way unwittingly into Alengras following an odd yet promising lead on a job. Having sought to go out on his own and live away from his parents home, the employment opportunity stands to provide him with an amicable place to start off his adult life.
~ Personality ~By all accounts, James, or Jimmy as most know him, is the quintessential “good kid.”
Helpful as a matter of routine and habit, he is frequently among the first to volunteer himself for tasks. He boasts an exceptional work ethic, putting his best into whatever job, endeavor, or errand he sets himself upon; he is notably a self-starter, who will, more often than not, take it upon himself to do what he knows needs to be done without being asked. He’s broadly a bright, and cheerful young man who strives to radiate courtesy and good will in everything that he does in life. This is not without its limits and drawbacks, however. He can easily find himself taking on more than he can chew, and leans too much into making himself an unrepentant people-pleaser, sometimes to the point of wearing himself thin.
A small town upbringing has left him on the backfoot when it comes to his interactions with the wider world. He’s naive to more than he realizes, and can be skittish when faced with the unexpected. He doesn’t always react positively to things that are outside of what he knows to be “ordinary,” being taken back by new odditie; he might come across to some as intolerant, and to others as scared or a coward of sorts. He has a slight gullible side, falling for certain pranks and misdirections, though this is typically retained within the realms of suspension of disbelief (if he’s in the woods and someone exclaims “bear!” he is likely to turn about to find where said bear is). While not incompetent in social situations, he can become awkward when taken well enough out of his comfort zone.
~ Magic Properties ~None. Jimmy is for all intents and purposes, a normal human. He possesses no discernable magic traits or abilities. If he’s lucky, someone at the hotel will have a way for him to put himself on an even keel. His only seeming trait is that he has regained the capacity to perceive and process the arcane that his ancestors once lost.
