Jira Tempestson

Name: Jira
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Birthday: December 21
Sexuality: Bi
Special Characteristics: He's not human, he's a monster from a purgatorial realm in the form of a human. This just gives him a different mentality. Also, whenever he's in combat, his eyes turn red and black, while his teeth grow sharpened and his tongue grows long and pointed, while his skin goes gray. This doesn't always happen though, he needs time to regain balance in the human world. He looked far more like a monster in his Purgatorial realm, but since going into Earthland, he looks like a human now, because of the magic/power shift. So it'll be awhile until he starts looking like a monster in mid combat again.

Personality: Jira was raised in a purgatorial realm, and is a monster in the form of a human. Raised by monsters, taught to survive, always fighting, this was his childhood. And has had a major affect on his personality. He's only been around humans for a couple of weeks. This has caused him to be suspicious of others, aways thinking they have an ulterior motive. That they mean to do him harm, like the monsters that surrounded him from childhood. He also has a tendency towards fighting and hunting. He has something called hunter instinct, it doesn't help combat at all, it's more of a personality thing really. It makes him want tear, kill, and hunt other things, it's uncontrollable, due to him being a monster. Although he's started getting it under control, so he isn't always at risk of turning berserk. There is more to him though. One would expect someone like this to be broody, or dark. They'd be wrong. In spite of where he came from, he's a very lighthearted individual. Always joking around, laid back, cracking up. Not really taking anything seriously. More fun to be around then you'd expect. This isn't for no reason either, in the purgatorial realm, although humans would have their mentalities broken by it, but Jira's a monster. He thrived in that environment. He was joking even when he was in purgatory due to it being normal to him. Now, he's in Earthland. Which in some respects is a walk in the park compared to where he once was. In some respects it's far more dangerous, but still, he doesn't always have to worry about a monster leaping out of the shadows at him. So he's far more laid back than most people. He also has a certain amount honour, surrounding fighting people mostly. He believes that everyone is equal, and should be treated as such. So he won't look down on anyone in a fight, or anywhere really. So really, what makes up his personality is, being a monster, humour, chillness, and honour.

In a fight, he is different. He is honourable, yes, but that doesn't mean he won't use any and every means to use he possible can. He didn't survive in Purgatory by fighting with honour, he survived by every trick and tactic he can think of. He is innovative, has a fast mind, and is able to create strategies faster than the blink of an eye. He's spurred onto his hunter instinct. Wishing to tear, and kill. This doesn't hamper his strategizing or ingenuity though, it only intensifies his desire for blood. He's more of a solo fighter, trying not to trust others to protect him, a move that gets him killed in Purgatory. Still, when he needs to take a team with him, he prefers everyone fighting as a solo party, less like a puzzle, and more like a group of people who don't fight each other. Or the others can do whatever they want, just don't expect Jira to fall in line. As a leader, Jira is different though. When he's in command, he tries making everyone more like an extension for each other, so their enemy isn't fighting one group of people, but one insanely strong individual. Under a leader, well he realizes that a leader is necessary for some battles. To organize a team. But he doesn't really care what a leader tells him to do, if the leader doesn't get in his way, and doesn't make it so that Jira's abilities aren't clouded, then Jira won't have a problem. But if Jira disagrees and decides that he can do more, that's what he'll do, not taking note of the leaders decision.


Likes:

- Fighting: Because he's a monster, it feels natural, and like completion, and natural when he does. Though he's trying to avoid, because he doesn't want to go overboard and become hunted.

- Fun: Who doesn't like fun? Although Jira can sometimes go overboard searching for fun and adventure.

- Jokes: It ties in with fun, he just likes cracking jokes all the time. He finds it can diffuse tense situations really fast.

- Tacos: Ever since he got into Earthland, he's just had a fondness for them, they just taste good... Yep.. That's there is to it... Not everything has to have a deep reason y'know.

Dislikes:

- Death: Although Jira doesn't have a personal experience with death, he's like... 90% that he wouldn't like it

- Monsters: He's grown so accustomed to fighting, and killing them in his old world, that he's grown a deep hatred for them. It would've been hard fighting monsters if he liked them after all.

- Stuck up people: Jira doesn't really like people who are stuck up and don't love life for what it is. They're no fun at all.

- Authority: It's not the usual "I'm a rebel" cliché scenario, it's more of a Jira doesn't understand people ordering him around. He came from a purgatory realm, where everything was chaos, so coming from that into a place where people say they can decide what is and isn't allowed to do.

Motivations:

- Strength: Jira's a monster, becoming the apex predator was the only thing that he strived for the entire time he was in purgatory. You don't just shake that off overnight.

- Knowledge: Jira wishes to learn about the humans, they are extremely curious compared to where he once came from.

- Personality: Now that Jira doesn't have to always be hunting, he doesn't know what to do with his life. So, he wants to discover who he is when he isn't always surviving and on the hunt.

Fears:

- Purgatory: After getting out, he's realized how much of a hell he'd been living in, and he doesn't want to go back for sure but he fears that one day the call of Purgatory will bring him back.

- Himself: Jira worries that one day he'll lose control of himself, and revert to his monster ways again... And be unable to stop tearing, and he'll have to be put down like another common monster.  

- Having his senses cut off: Jira heavily relied on his senses in Purgatory, the idea of not being able to sense anything terrifies him.
