Personality:It isn't easy describing Jacky to anyone. He is different with different people. One thing is for sure, however. Everyone knows he is a partier. Whatever chance he gets, he is always going to someone's party on the block. Then again, there has been time he has hosted his own party. Most people thought that he drank during the parties because it was a party, and that's what people did during parties, but that isn't the case. No one knows that he drinks all the time. Though, he isn't what you would think from your average alcoholic, drunk all the time and mad, hating the world. He is quite the opposite. Or at least, he shows everyone that he is the complete opposite.
Jack is certainly the biggest joker you would ever meet. It is possible for him to take some things somewhat seriously, but that doesn't happen very often. He always has to make a joke about everything and anything. That also makes him a great person to get along with as well. He could take anything, and pretty much laugh at it, somehow or another. He is actually easy to get along with if you don't mind being seen next to him, as he can act a bit like a freak at times. However, the people he gets along with most is hyper people because he finds them amusing.
There are times when he is alone, or found alone with a single person, he can be quite calm. When he's calm, he finds himself very friendly if someone comes up to him and starts to talk to him, or vise versa. In this times, the reason he's calm is he is trying to mentally get past everything. Also, he can be calm just because he is trying to find some peace with him. You will not find him alone a lot, but when you do, that is one of the best times to talk to him. If he finds you alone, sometimes, he can go up to you very friendly. If he finds someone crying, he can make his voice very gentle, which is unusual for him.
To his enemies is a completely different story all together. He takes everything he knows about them against them, playing it out perfect-ally like a game. Since he doesn't have a lot of enemies, a lot of his rage energy goes to specific people. Jack won't fight unless he has to, but that doesn't mean he'll back down from a fight either, whether it's verbal or physical. If it's verbal, you will hear him using more curse words then normal and a whole lot of sarcasm. Though sarcasm and especially curse words are used in his everyday language, they play more when fighting. The people he wouldn't get along with is the kind that think their better then everyone else, which includes the jocks.
He likes to say a curse word about every other sentence. It's a bad habit he got into at a younger age, as his parents didn't do anything to stop him. Something else they didn't stop him at, is his love for music. He is good at playing his guitar, and does it often. He probably plays it more then he drinks, which is saying something major.
One last thing you have to remember with Jack. He hates going to class, so is always in trouble or in detention, or getting in trouble for not going to detention. He doesn't really care, and most of the teachers have given up trying to help, and are shocked if he bothers to show up for class, which is the way Jack likes it.

-- HOW MY WORLD HAS CHANGED WHEN I LOOK AROUND
Parents: Evelyn, deceased
Marie, Birthmother, Prostitute
Jackson, Birthfather, Co-Owner of Bar
Siblings: None
Pets: None
Biography: Jacky's birth was never suppose to happen. Marie was a prostitue, also in love with Jackson's best friend, but buisness was buisness. Though she was normally a safe girl, Jackson refused protection, which got them the kid. Marie wasn't sure if it was the best friends or Jacksons, so she approached Nigel, the best friend. Nigel was furious that she even considered that type of buisness with Jackson, sent her away and never wanted to see her again.
So when the doctor told Marie, 'your pregnant', she about had a heart attack. Both of them were strictly against abortions, but they didn't know what else to do. The word 'adoption' was put to mind, but Marie was adopted, and she didn't want anyone to feel the want she did. The want to know her real parents, or what her life would have been liked if they kept her. That's another reason why when they were considering it, she said she refused adoption.
However, at a young age, his father abused him on a stressful day of work. Jacky couldn't remember a lot, but he remembered it being painful. Thats one of the reasons he hates being called Jack. Each time, before one of them hit him, they yelled, 'damn IT JACK!' and slapped him. Those words rang in his ears, and when he hears it now, he has flashbacks and nightmares. It lasted for the longest time, probably up to when he was 12, before he ran away for good.
He found a neighborhood he could live in, but the problem was this neighborhood wasn't anything well. No one was going to take a scrawny beaten kid, so he found himself living alone. A women named Eveyln took him in, and reassured him he was safe. She had three other adopted boys, Jerry, Bobbie, and Angel. At first, Jacky pictured them beating him up just as much, but they did the complete opposite. They helped him heal his wounds. They made a great team, though Jacky was the smallest. They grew up in Junior High if you messed with one of us, you'd better hope you wouldn't be dead the next morning.
At age thirteen, Jacky first figured out the lie detector abilities. He was watching Bobbie lie straight to his mother about having that girl over. Jacky at first, had no idea what was going on. He hadn't even heard of the Chosen breed. Jacky couldn't even describe how he knew what was going on. It was just a feeling in his bones. Ever since, he had witnessed a lot of that same feeling.
One day, Jerry, Angel, and Jacky were walking home, wondering where Bobbie ran off to. They found him, getting beat up for stealing someone's lunch money. Once they fought him off, Jacky grabbed one of the guy's black switchblades, using that to save Bobbie's life. He still has that pocketknife, and he brings it everywhere with him. He and Bobbie had been the closest ever since.
The dreadful day came, however, not too long ago. They were waiting for Evelyn to get home, who had fixed them up (they are congressmen compared to what they WOULD have been), but she never came. Turns out there was a shooting in the mall, but someone called the hit on her for raising four boys to what they were today. The four brothers all watched the video with the guys, shooting thier mother after he already got the money. Jacky was frustrated and thought just one the guy that pulled the trigger. He couldn't stand it, and the four brothers went to find the men that called the hit, and did the hit to get revenge.
Thats when Jacky told his brothers about his strange ability. It was a lot to pack on a freshman, but he knew it had to come into use. It just had to. The brothers were wary of him, but thankful when Jacky could tell someone was telling the truth or when someone was flat out giving them false information. One of the questions that was asked, Jacky kept quiet about. It was the reason for killing Evelyn. It was because of him. Someone knew. Someone found out.
After running around for all types of information, they found the hitmen. They found them, and two of his brothers killed the guys, as they never let innocent Jacky do such things and told him to look away instead, and then they were dead. Not too long after, when the one that hired them figured out they were on their tail, one of them started to mess with Jacky, throwing snowballs at him. Annoyed, Jacky ran to them, but he ended up being shot. Groaning with pain, while the others were fighting them off, he blacked out...
He woke up in the hospital the next day, all healed. Because he was now made a little more public, he was sent over to some strange school that was said to have kids just like him.

RP Sample:
What a strange turn of events. At first, he could have swore this new girl was going to be the kind that made him want to pull his long hair out. He had gotten quite the opposite. First impressions were very knowingly the first impression. Very first. Sometimes, before all of this, he would go after a pretty girl, even if her first voice that came out wasn't what he wanted. There had been only a couple of times were the beauty overtook the voice. The voice was a lot to him. Though it was a completely different story when it actually came to the thing he was looking for. All the same, it had to start somewhere. There had also been many times where he just couldn't do it. He was forced to walk away because his ears were ringing and going deaf the more he sat there.
She started to smile and Remy just had to smiel wider. Again, it hurt, and he took a moment to reach up and take his own cheek. Then settled back again. He'd get use to smiling soon enough he supposed. So he re-gained himself and focused on her flashing smile. Seemed to brighten up the darkness in his face. Usually the phrase was something along the lines of the darkness in the room, but it seemed the darkest thing here was him. Everyone that knew he was making a very large circle around him. The girls were now discusted with his homophobic nature, and the guys pretty much always hated him. For their girls would turn twice to look at Remy. And if Remy would normally go for the girl, it'd be hard to say no. So guys tended to distrust in him greatly. One of the reasons him and Jacky never got along before. Then once everything was past, turns out friends were kind of needed.
Remy didn't have full hearted friends even before the prom. He had flings and random people he talked to every once in a while. But no one he really would have considered what most people had considered a friend. He never had. When he was little and on the streets, you coulnd't trust anyone. It was so easily to be stabbed in the back so that there was less competition. Just one straight shot to the police. They were looking for any one called theif, as it was a bad problem for a long time. Near the time he left, it was starting to slow down and get extremely serious. One of the reasons he left. Just one of the many. He didn't miss anyone around that area at all either. Just came to show what it had been like. All his life alone. Cierra came, and it started to show something else, and now he lost that before.
It didn't use to bother him so much until now. Until he saw everyone around him joking around. Maybe thats why he wasn't perticularly liking his job lately. It was a place where a bunch of friends went out drinking. Or now it was going to see if they could meet a friend at the strip club. The girls that had shown him kindness were complete dingbats, quite frankly. Now Sadie was here giving out a whole different vibe. It was like it was back to his old self. He figured it was a mixture of that vibe and her incredibly beauty that was making him feel that way. When she said her name through her lips, he shivered. God, he wanted her to scream that name so bad... he shook his head. Whoa, he should have known better. He was respectable of course, but his thoughts were a bit wild. Especially with her.
She leaned against the wall and his eyes guility trailed again. Very quick, just to get a glimpse...for uh... just in case Nigel would ask. Yeah, that was it. Sometimes Nigel asked Remy's opinion, in which he would usually say 'very nice' no matter what he thought. So now he was making excuses in his head was thats why he was thinking of Sadie the way he was. Her short dress, though a small coat over it, didn't help. He was leaning against the opposite well. Though as much as he wanted to stay with her, he wasn't sure if he wanted to wait here. It was just he needed to get to work, and his self control was so small. A lot of times he had to kiss the girl before it was obvious she was into him as much as him as into her. It was just lucky that he had lucked out. His self control hadn't improved at all.
Had he been working here long? All the days have kind of mixed together now. This was one thing that wasn't now, except the mixing of the days was a lot longer. Before it was more that it was going so fast. Now it wasn't moving fast enough. He thought for a moment and simply gave a shrug. The top of his shoulders, his soft hair touched his shoulders. "Not as long as a lot of people here." He told her in his soft voice. The fact that he hadn't and was getting so much really made the other employees mad. Another reason he was an enemy of just about everyone. "And how did you find out about here?" He asked. Not a lot of people knew, and it was hard to get workers and yet keep it all a secret. Actually, more like an impossible task. Just had to trust who you told.
He looked over to see one of his co-workers giving him a hard look. It wasn't out of the oridinary. Remy followed his gaze, as it was glancing over at something, and he saw it was at Sadie. He looked over at Sadie. Was he really jealous of this too? It wasn't like it was going to go anywhere. Remy was just escorting her over. He gave a gentle roll of his eyes, looking down at the patterned floor, then at Sadie again. Every time he looked at her... again, he shook his head at himself. He really needed to learn how not to do this, "Cherie, I'm curious why you dought a jacket was nessasary" He asked, having that sudden thought. Really, she was going to take it off anyway. A lot else off he supposed as well. Most girls came in there wanting to show off everything they got. It was just different and frankly, he was trying to keep talking up so he didn't do anything irrational.
