Description

Birthdate: May 19, 2491
Home Planet: Paquin
Species: Human
Skin: Medium
Hair: Auburn
Eyes: Green
Distinguishing Marks: Small horizontal scar below right eye, somewhat larger scar on left shoulder, both from bullets. Scar below eye was a graze.
Clothing of Choice: Tends to favor browns and olive greens. He likes wearing his olive-green cargo pants, tucked into black work boots. With this, he wears a brown trench coat over a tan tank top. He always wears a pair of goggles with a brown band and dark tinted lenses. These goggles have a wire, leading to a painfully-long-looking, three inch jack, which inserts into a port behind his right ear. This is painful.
Expression: Usually that of a slightly smug air, generally smiling, grinning, or smirking.
Speech Patterns: Western accent. Fluency in English and Chinese. Tends to use Chinese to censor himself, or in surprise. This Chinese is spoken with a slight western accent as well, however, making it likely somewhat difficult to understand to native Chinese speakers.
Demeanor: Pleasant, if a bit crass or harsh at times.

History

Jonathan "Jack" Leon, born 2491, enlisted in the Alliance army, a result of pressure from friends and family, about six months before Unification Day. During this time in the war, he was equipped with a neural transplant, allowing him to run an electric charge through his body, and control a pair of goggles with built-in HUD, without having to speak commands. Despite joining the Alliance army, he didn't support unification, and what he really wanted was to don a brown coat and fight for the Independents. His time in the army, though, trained him well; expanding on the martial skills he had picked up as a teenager, and teaching him to fly a ship and navigate, as well as simple and more complex commands for his implant.

When the war was over, he decided to enlist his skills by joining a ship. He joined the ranks of a ship called Demeter, under a captain called Boss. Boss ran a smuggling operation, and did a bang-up job at it. The pay was good, the life a near-perfect mix of exciting, entertaining, and comfortable, and the crew was amiable to Jack, known then as Leon.

During one mission, however, Jack's skills were called upon to scan an approaching ship. At the most inopportune time, his implant glitched, and the reading came back as just a transport vessel. By some miracle, Boss decided not to raid this ship, as pirates of old would have done. This may have spared the lives of his entire crew. He did, however, make no attempt to hide himself, or pass the other ship more quickly. Therefore, when the ship revealed itself as Alliance, Demeter and her entire crew was taken aboard for questioning. When several smuggled shipments were discovered onboard, the crew was apprehended, save for Jack, who was spared by virtue of a time that wasn't even his own choice: having served in the Alliance army got him a pardon. Boss and his crew were sent to lockdown, while Jack was sent on his way.

Having lost his home, Jack decided to acquire his own ship. He found a beauty of a vessel; deceptively large, hiding several turrets and plenty of smuggling space, plenty-comfortable interior. He bought the ship using his savings and a loan from friends, and called her Jiang Lao, Coyote. Calling on friends from before his army days, the few that didn't push him to what he didn't want, he found among them a pilot by the name of Sam, a surveyor called Byron, and a medic known only by Doc. Figuring he could fly the ship with this crew alone, he got her in the sky and took jobs.

It wasn't long before the ship was in dire need of repairs, however, and he made port at a small mining moon with a deceptively bustling port city. There, he found a teenager by the name of Kaz playing absently with a small flying mech, controlling it with a panel on his arm. When the mech crashed harmlessly into Jack, it caught his attention. Upon learning that the boy had build it from scratch, he invited him aboard his ship. Kaz assured the crew that he'd be able to take care of the engine and its workings, and they were back in the sky.

Some time after finding their natural genius mechanic, Jack was doing a routine scan of a ship in the distance, when the worst result possible was returned. The ship within sight of his own was piloted by Reavers. He sprang to action, hopping on the com to instruct his crew to remain calm, and directing Sam to alter course twenty degrees starboard, and keep the speed steady. No sooner had this order been followed through, however, that everything went black for a split second that felt like eternity. When his vision returned, he was no longer aboard Jiang Lao, but was instead surrounded by rather short, furry, anthropomorphic beings, all talking about some Council.

His initial shock was quickly replaced with frantic worry, as his ship was now captainless, within sights of a Reaver vessel. He started to panic, but an orange fox informed him that he was capable of teleporting. Eager to try, despite not knowing the creature, he offered what help he could. The fox concentrated, then opened a portal... into black space. No ships could be seen, no signs of battle or even struggle. Jack's heart sank. He had no idea what had happened to his ship, his crew. He was given hope, though, when one of his other new companions informed him that many people are displaced here. The fox that opened the portal was even from another dimension. Perhaps his crew was also here? Jack perked a bit, hope that he would find his crew, and maybe even his ship, growing. He joined the group his new companions were a member of, VERMIN, seemingly made for people like him. He counted himself fortunate that he was transported where he was.

He now fights alongside the members of VERMIN, seeking to make this world a little safer, all the while searching for a way back to his own world, his ship, his crew, his comfortable if dangerous life.
