Appearance:
HUMAN: Exceptionally petite and standing at a mere five foot four, most people mistake Jesse for a really flat-chested girl. His voice, higher than most men, doesn't help clear anything up. His light brown hair falls in thick, heavy waves, coming down to just past his shoulders. Jesse's face simply adds to the confusion - his jaw lacks any manly strength, and his chin is thin and dainty. His startlingly blue eyes are almost always hidden in gaudy sunglasses - that come in EVERY shape and color - that match the rest of his clothes perfectly. His wardrobe consists of every color in the visible spectrum, and almost every article available. (He's perfectly happy to run around in a skirt, too. His favorite one is turquoise and glittery.) Underneath his flashy clothes, Jesse has a lightly and pleasantly tanned body, but he's also unhealthily scrawny. His poor eating habits, along with a lack of eating in general, has taken a toll on his weight, and he just barely scrapes by as healthy. His shifter tattoo, deep violet in color, is located just above his navel.Personality:
SHIFTED: With someone as much power and money as Jesse, is it really surprising that he shifts into a mink? His long body is coated evenly in thick, sleek fur, a glossy brown in color. Short but delicate legs give way to even more delicate paws and toes, between which there is the normal mink's webbing. Despite this advantage in the water, Jesse rarely goes swimming in this form.
If you can see Jesse's clothes, you can see his personality. Flashy? Check. Provocative? Check. Over the top? Put three checks next to that one. Jesse is an outgoing, fun loving, extremely cheery kid who takes the phrase "eye-catching" to scary levels. He's also a huge flirt, and will not hesitate to walk up to random strangers and begin laying the moves on them. (Strangely enough, he absolutely will not approach women older than him. He finds it just a little creepy.) He also has the habit of finding humor in almost any situation, and his girlish giggle can be heard more often than not.History:
This, of course, is just the surface. Spend time around Jesse and you'll find...well, actually, you'll find the exact same thing. He seems to be gaudy and flashy right down to his very core, though he seems to get a little more down-to-earth when you become a real friend. He genuinely cares for the people who AREN'T just there for free money and make-out sessions, and will give you a big glittery hug and tell you everything will be okay if you're feeling down.
Though Jesse is a full-blooded optimist and is smiling through even a bloody nose, there are a few things that can set him off. Firstly, he hates being ignored. With every fiber of his being. Stop giving him your attention and be prepared for huffy foot-stomping and many attempts to regain it. Second, he is a boy who is used to getting whatever he wants, when he wants, because he simply can. If you spurn his affections or deny him something the he wants, he will quickly get irritated and walk away from it if it takes too much effort to obtain it. To him, as soon as you leave a problem, it disappears. Lastly, the one thing that can hurt him the most is bringing up his lack of any real parental love. Even the simple insult of "your parents must have dropped you on your head as a kid" can turn Jesse into a harsh, bitingly sarcastic individual. If you listen closely to his retort, you can easily pick up his wounded undertone.
All in all, Jesse's personality matches his clothes. And as a warning, don't be surprised if he starts to flirt with you.
Charlotte Greensburg and Michael Reeves, two of the most powerful, most affluent businessmen on the field, once decided to get married because it would present them with the opportunity to build a vast fortune together. However, once the media started drifting away from their public-shocking wedding, they realized that they needed to recapture the eyes of potential customers and employers. Therefore, they brainstormed the most effective way to attract attention - and that's how Jesse came into being.Sample:
Thanks to his parents' respective beauty and good looks, Jesse was an attractive child from birth. His mother dressed him impeccably and forced him to learn the best manners, so at every business party, their guests would remark how well-behaved and mature little Jesse was. When the appeal of youth faded away at the age of seven, both parents pushed Jesse to excel at everything and anything. Painting, sculpting, a wide variety of instruments; the only thing they didn't force him into was sports, as they felt too much focus on physical aspects would dull the mind. Once again, Jesse became a star child at parties, praised for his talent and charm. "A little Renaissance man in the making," they would coo.
However, nothing lasts forever, and soon, Jesse had entered middle school and dropped out of the public's adoring eye. At this point, his parents no longer deemed it necessary to busy themselves with making him the perfect kid. They hired a nanny to take care of "the boy," as he had come to be called, and pretty much forgot all about their own son. Jesse, at the age of eleven, was not happy about this AT ALL. A simple house maid couldn't replace what we had thought was parental affection...so he started doing things to grab their attention. He tried excelling at absolutely everything, jumping to the top of all his classes and clubs; they simply nodded. He tried flunking out of school; they hired a range of tutors and only reprimanded him. He would have gotten into drugs if not for his nanny, who found him with an unopened bottle of alcohol and took it away, having a very serious conversation about bad habits and what they could do to him. From that point on, he has been very afraid of ruining his "perfect" body.
A year after his initial attempts, Jesse had just about given up on ever meeting his parents' gaze, when his now-trusted nanny came up with an idea. She proposed that he should try doing something so out-of-the-ordinary, so eye-catching, that his parents would have to look at him again. He began serious consideration, and after a few days, hatched a plan. He immediately replaced his old, formal clothing with the latest (and mostly female) fashions and bright, cheap clothing. He started growing his hair out as well - but the change wasn't purely physical. He started acting obnoxiously cheery, and though it disgusted him at first, extremely flirty with anyone he deemed attractive. (He had always been bisexual, even his nanny knew that. He was just taking it to an extremely high level.) At first, his scheme worked - his parents yelled at him daily about his "revolting, lower-class habits" and fired his nanny - but even that stopped after a heated argument and a promise to continue with his behavior.
Eventually, Jesse spent so long spiting his parents with his flashy-flirty-socialite attitude that he himself forgot the original point. He convinced himself that THIS was his real personality, and had always been the real him. Every now and again, he'll stop and take a good look at himself in the mirror - at his scarily thin body, his neon-bright fashions, his overly feminine face - then fix his hair and hop in the car to go somewhere new and exciting.
The club was a mass of sweating, brightly clad bodies, dancing and jumping in time to a fast-paced techno song that blared from the speakers. The air had the distinct odor of artificial fog as the smoke machine pumped out opaque vapor, catching the neon lights as they flashed around the dance floor. Jesse smirked, characteristic sunglasses hanging from the neck of his low-cut shirt as two women giggled in his ears. Perfect.Other:
"Jesse~" the one on the left cooed in a whiny, high-pitched voice, manicured-nailed hand clinging to his dangerously skinny arm. "How about that one over there? He's cute." The young man's eyes flicked over to where the other hand was pointing, and a smile immediately snaked onto his feminine face. She was right; he WAS cute. Short black hair, tall, broad-shouldered...definitely his type.
The one on the right took the opportunity to giggle obnoxiously. Her glossy pink lips curled up into a dimpled smile, and caught some of the lighting from above, turning an interesting purple. Jesse noticed the curious effect with vague interest. "Yeah, you should go talk to him. Definitely a hottie," she said in a low, admiring tone. Both women, the left wavy blond one and the right brunette bob, giggled in time, hiding their perfect white teeth behind elegantly thin hands.
Giving them both a smile, Jesse freed one hand to flip his thick, wavy hair back over his shoulder. "Ladies, you sure know my tastes," he said smoothly, surrendering his arm back to the grip of one clinging girl, who took it with gusto. "He looks PERFECT. Shall we go pay him a little visit?" Both girls screeched and laughed in approval, immediately jumping ahead and babbling about how they were going to flirt with him. Jesse merely let himself be dragged along, pulled into the crowd of faceless dancers and trance music.
Life was good.
Surprisingly, Jesse is still a virgin. The only reason he hasn't slept with anyone is because he fears catching an STD and ruining his "flawless figure."
Due to incidents in the past where he was beaten to a bloody pulp, he usually makes his way home as a mink, when he's not being chauffeured.
At some point in his role playing career, he will most likely pass out from not eating enough. Idiot.
