Gender: Female

Special Characteristics: Bright, amber eyes

Personality: Jacklyn's personality is a multitude of facets that seem to contradict one another at every turn. While she believes herself to be a good person, she willingly takes the lives of both the benevolent and malevolent if the pay is right. Over the years her personality has been shifted and corrupted, though she claws to maintain who she wanted to be since she was a child.

Jacklyn, outside of combat, acts like a normal 22 year old woman. She goes about town, either window shopping or strolling within shops--making the occasional purchase--despite being anything but a normal 22 year old. She strives to be what most would consider a good person, though having lived with another who cares little for these (for so many years), she struggles to maintain that part of her. Since a young age she has been on her own, and thus has a hard time placing any trust in people--despite telling them that she does so. With having trust issues with people, both from experience and having traveled constantly, Jackie is woefully short on her list of friends. She believes that both good and evil are both valid points of views, but still opinions. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, after all. Because of this, her actions generally operate towards her own moral compass which often bounces all over many peoples opinions. Jackie's manner of speech is informal, and she smiles quite often. She is quick to make jokes, as humor is her escape from the hard realities of what she deems the real world. Despite having traveled to and fro, she has very little experience with the opposite sex. She understands sexuality, though, and has used it during her contracts to get close to her targets. While having no relationships to speak of, Jackie does have her ideal man in mind, and would like to settle down at some point--though her 'alter-ego' prevents this dream from ever truly being fulfilled. She would describe herself as strong willed, and opinionated and prefers those who are aggressive and strong, almost to the point of making her submissive. On top of all of this, she houses an amount of disdain for the mask she carries and bears--though she knows her fate is tied to that mask. Where as she wants to walk within the light, she knows her fate will always be bound to the dark--and the futile struggle sometimes makes it's way into her smiles; making them seem hollow and rigid. Having come from a society that places females in sub servant to men, she embraces the male persona of the mask she carries. Thus, when in combat, she refers to herself as 'he' and endeavors to hide her female qualities, as she believes that men don't see females as equals.

In combat, or rather when her mask is donned, Jacklyn is a completely different person. The mask that she wears into combat is a relic from millennia past, and houses the soul of a demon who walked the earth when man was in it's infancy. Being a demon it delights in causing chaos and discord, gladly using Jacklyn as it's outlet for that purpose. Gone is the 22 year old girl, who seeks to live a normal life. In it's place stands a 'man' who identifies as the 'Jack of Blades', using various bladed weapons in his arsenal to kill both contracted targets and bystanders alike. A job isn't successful if there's a possible witness within a two block radius.

Despite having a penchant for bloodshed, Jack prefers to stalk and attack from the shadows--using surprise to watch the dying light in his victim's eyes as they realize there was nothing they could have truly done. Pain and death are obviously at the forefront of Jack's mind, but he has no misguided sense of honor: the only fair fight, is the one you lost. Jack, though the demon's real name certainly isn't so, enjoys the fact that Jacklyn is his host, and must be sub-servant to him. Because he resides within the mask, an artifact of great power, he feels no pain--even when he is 'in control'. He has no qualms of her taking the brunt of an attack. The flip side of this, however, is if she is mortally wounded. Because their fates are bound, Jack does indeed take care to not allow her to be killed--as he desires to preserve himself and the body that's his host. This type of fighting style makes him rather unpredictable in battle.
Likes:

• Night Time - Jacklyn enjoys the night time, finding solace in the many shadows cast by a full moon.
  
• Fall - The perfect time of year, Jacklyn is marveled by the leaves that change color since her homeland doesn't experience such a phenomenon.
  
• Nabemono - The 'poor mans' dinner, Jacklyn enjoys hot pot dishes as they are filling and easy to make.
  

Dislikes:

• Summer - Her homeland having summer for almost 9 months out of the year, Jacklyn hates this season.
  
• Hot Dogs - If you knew how they were made, you wouldn't like them either.
  
• Restrictive Clothing - While some believe Jacklyn shows skin for her assets, she actually wears it for freedom of movement.
  

Motivations:

• Freedom - Jacklyn desires freedom from the demon that she is bound to, believing it a permanent problem to a temporary solution.
  
• Serenity - Jacklyn desires to know what true peace is, having lived with a true demon as a part of her for so many years.
  
• Chaos - Because she is subsevant to the demon that grants her her power, a small part of Jacklyn is made to desire chaos in it's most pure form.
  

Fears:

• Death - While this is cliche, it runs deeper for Jacklyn. She fears death because the demon has control when the mask is on, which is generally during combat. The demon, referred to as Jack, fears death because he is bound to his human host--despite residing in a mask. Death of them, means death to him.
  
• Loneliness - Having donned the mask as a solution to a temporary problem, Jacklyn is fearful that she will never be able to fall in love and live a normal life.
  
• Precious Item - Because the mask is bound to her, and must be donned at least once a day, Jacklyn is fearful of losing it.
  

General Appearance


Height: 5'5"
Weight: Classified
Hair: Dark purple / Violet
Eyes: Amber
Skin Tone: Caramel
Appearance: Standing at the halfway point of five feet, Jacklyn herself certainly isn't sore on the eyes. Possessing curves where they count, Jacklyn's body is well toned from her choice of profession: assassin. Her pride and joy, her violet hair, extends to lower back, though she generally keeps this in a pony tail out of combat, as it tends to get in the way. That doesn't mean she has forgotten how to let it down, however, as she often does when she chooses to dress up--for whatever reason. She prefers clothes that are less restrictive (should she have to fight quickly), though many would say these clothes are too revealing. Her every day clothes consist of either a tank top or halter, and a pair of close fitting paints--whose fabric vary, depending on personality.

In combat, or rather once prepared for, her attires changes drastically. Having bound her chest carefully, she hides the rest of her female attributes behind armor or a mask. Her mask on, the white porcelain with red and gold inlay covers her narrow feminine face. Her hair is back in a bun, this bun covered by the red hood that hides the rest of her facial features. The red hood is part of a tattered cloak that extends to just back mid back. Her chest is covered by a silver breastplate, worn from many a combat, complete with knicks in the metal. Her hands, wrapped in leather strips, are covered with silver gauntlets--the fingers of said gauntlets plated for freedom of movement, and pointed to allow for scratching at worst. Her legs and hips are covered in silver plate graves, the plates overlaid like the gauntlets, for freedom of movement. Beneath the plate chest and greaves, a black skin suit is worn, hugging her frame, though mostly covered so that she appears a lithe male at best. Various daggers and other bladed weapons are hidden about her form.
