A reformed criminal, Jack served his time well and was able to get out of prison on good behaviour at twenty-one. During his time behind bars, he had time to reflect on the things he had done in life and became determined to make a change. Finding God, he spent the rest of his sentence working hard to prove he was capable of change and during that time was able to reconcile with his family, their relationship only growing stronger as a result of his newfound path and his subsequent schizophrenia diagnosis, in which they supported him and helped get his life back on track after his stay in hospital. Since then, the twenty-four-year-old has been doing incredibly well and has been able to hold down a steady regime as well as a job.


When not participating in activities with the church or wooing the ladies with stories of his 'bad boy' days, Jack is found more often than not spending time with his friends or scribbling away in his notebook, sitting under trees at the park. An avid poet who uses his creativity as an outlet for expressing his emotions, he's been lucky enough to have some of his works published locally, with positive reviews. At the heart of all of these things, Jack is a family man, caring dearly about his loved ones and those around him. He always wants to help others, whether it's through the church or in his everyday life and will never back down from a fight, especially if those he cares about are involved.


Appearance:

  • Has black hair and blue eyes.
  • Favours a brown flared pantsuit with a grey turtleneck and accessories such as a belt and colour-coordinated shoes, as well as a watch he uses to help time when he has to take his medication.
  • Similar to Bugs, he has sideburns although they are slightly thicker. Has a slight mullet.
  • Has a toned build from his criminal days, as well as a few tattoos on his arms which he likes to keep covered up when in public (unless he goes swimming).
  • Likened to James Dean, save for his hair.
Extra:
  • Is the oldest of four siblings. Has a brother named Dominic (Dom) and two sisters, Jeane and Debbie
  • Lives alone in an apartment not far from where his best friend lives. The two often commute to work together as a result of this.
  • He's known by others to be otherwise satisfied with his life, and more often than not is always caught smiling.
  • As well as writing, he enjoys sketching wildlife and is considered an ornithologist by those who know him well (an expert on birds).
  • When he lets down his womanising persona, he is considered to be a quiet and gentle man, simply wanting to live his life the best way he possibly can.
  • Dated a woman named Dana briefly, but thought they were better off as friends and so they ended things amicably. It's said the pair are still on good terms and consider each other close friends, one of the only few that were outside of Jack's group. He points to her being the one who encouraged him to embrace his creative side more.
