Jacklin Silver’Mist

Nickname: Jack

Gender: female

Age(15-25): 18

Power: Can become shadows, or simply put, disappear and teleport across areas, but only unless she’s seen the spot she’s jumping to, or she’s been there before. She can’t teleport over long distances though (within 1 km radius)

Appearance: Tall and slender, Jack has long black hair that glistens in the sun and moonlight. Jack’s right eye is blue, and her left eye is gold. She has a scar running from her hairline, through her right eye, and down to her cheek, as well as the silver scar on her neck.

Personality (Strengths/Weakness): Jack is always mad. She can find something to be angry about even if it is the most pathetic excuse you could ever hear. But even when she’s angry she can act funny, charming, witty, sarcastic and kind. There are very rare occasions when Jack will show an emotion other than anger, but she has to really trust the person and really like them. Jack can show sorrow, happiness and genuine empathy at times when it is needed. But mostly she is blunt and angry. Jack doesn’t like stupidity, and those that annoy her do so at their own peril. She hates people giving a running commentary on their thoughts, and would gladly stab their hand with a fork given the chance. Jack can be hard headed and stubborn, and has trouble seeing the obvious right in front of her face at times, unless it is solving a problem, like how to kill someone, or how to escape a place. She has a soft spot for weak or challenge children, especially if they are orphans, and tries to help them as best she can.
Strengths – Jack is strong willed and never gives up. She will protect weak and orphaned children. She will stand up for what she believes in. She is a good tracker, and skilled with daggers, swords and bow and arrows.
Weaknesses – Her anger, for a start. She can never admit that she's wrong and doesn't back down from a fight or challenge. If you insult her, she will hurt you. Poor social skills and can't sit still for long.

History: Jack’s anger comes from the pain and loss of her childhood and family. Jack’s family owned an inn for travellers, selling beds and meals, as well as drinks and stables for horses. When Jack was four, her mother was murdered by a group of drunk men, and her eldest sister raped by two guards. Her father packed them up to move away when her older brother suddenly disappeared. They found his body in the stables a few days later with a note saying they had to obey or they’ll die. A year later, Jack’s eldest sister committed suicide, and her father slipped into a deep depression. As the years went on, Jack slowly became cold and empty, preferring the company of animals to humans. She started learning how to defend herself, so that should anyone come near her, she can save herself. When Jack was sixteen, some mercenaries came and took an interest in her. When one made a crude comment about her appearance, she rounded on him, but her father was the one that acted. A fight started in the room, and he was killed after being stabbed in the chest with a knife. Jack ran away after that, but was caught by the mercenaries, who tried to kill her. She defended herself as best she could, but the men were many and more powerful than she, and she was left in a ditch, cut and bruised, with several broken ribs, a fractured leg, and a broken nose. She was close to death when she submitted to the call of Mortain.

Other: Up for love. Has a pet eagle that sits on her shoulder when she’s not moving. Good with animals and a skilled horse rider. Prefers daggers, bows and arrows and short swords as her weapons.

Dorian, are you the one adding all the spices to our food?
Of course I am.
Why?
Because frankly the food here tastes like poorly cooked sawdust. It genuinely tastes how Solas looks.
