IN-DEPTH: Link to wiki. Jean's world (or as I gently call it 'Titan Hell') is a hellhole ruled by fear of the titans. These giant monsters are originally humans who were transformed into titans and only think about one thing: eating humans to find a way to transform back. There are three walls surrounding the last of humanity to protect from these beasts. So far, the military that Jean's part of has been able to fight back against them and they are finally on the verge of reclaiming the most outer third of their land that was lost five years prior. Jean is part of the Survey Corps planning to take back their land and resealing the wall. PERSONALITY Jean is a very honest and outspoken person. He doesn't have a problem with telling his opinion, however blunt they may be. Sometimes he tells his opinion at the risk of getting into trouble or making things around him even more complicated. That just means he thinks his opinions are important enough to be voiced, even if they would be different from the general ones. The opinions are sometimes even important enough to cause a plain old fist fight. Jean shows his temperament whenever he's arguing with someone near his own status and is not above using violence to sort things out. More detailsDespite his occasional temperamental problems, Jean is still what you'd consider a natural leader. As his friend, Marco, described, Jean is not a very strong person, so he's able to relate to how the weak feel. That helps him give out commands and advice as he knows how people would possibly react to them. He's been shown to take control of a desperate situation, such as other squads losing their leader and needing someone to guide them to safety. Jean has a very pragmatic way of thinking. Instead of thinking what works in theory, he also needs to be sure it works for real to attempt it. Not getting himself into situations that are dangerous is how he wants to manage. Unfortunately the world isn't as simple and he has to make some compromises, but whenever he can make a choice of protecting himself, he'd rather to that. Of course he values his friends and will throw away this way of thinking if they need him. This was of thinking was what made him want to join the Military Police - the safest faction on their world - but after experiencing a real battle and seeing his best friend, Marco, die, he made a choice to join the Survey Corps and put himself into danger. Sometimes he acts more selfish than he actually is on purpose. It's no secret that he tends to think about himself over others, but he does care about his friends a lot, he just doesn't show it very well. He puts effort into helping them out, but sometimes makes it seem like it wasn't for them or because of them and end up arguing with said friends for that reason. His unselfish side is also shown when he puts himself in danger to stop a titan from approaching other soldiers, so that the mission wouldn't fail. He shows little to no hesitation when he makes up his mind to do something. He's also shown to be almost breaking apart when he has to make a decision of leaving someone behind and surviving with other soldiers. He knows there's nothing he can do about a situation like that, but he still regrets he let the situation go like that. After humans started fighting humans inside the walls, Jean has been terrified by the fact that he might have to kill humans instead of titans. After almost dying because of hesitating to shoot a person, Jean needed to find his resolve and eventually was forced to kill for the first time. It was then he when he realized that his life had changed and he would have to change as well in order to survive. Jean is also very skeptical by nature. He tends to suspect everything at the beginning and actually trusting something, or someone, takes some time. Especially the thought of humanity actually winning against titans feels like a it would be impossible, but after a few clear victories he's started to see a small glimpse of hope. Jean's feelings for Mikasa give him more than just the feeling of admiration and desire. The feelings are very one-sided on the romantic side (Jean is continuously friend-zoned) and Mikasa is only interested in someone else - Eren. Jealousy has been a strong emotion from the start. Whenever Jean sees Mikasa close to Eren or going to him makes him feel like crap. He doesn't understand how a guy like Eren gets a beautiful girl like Mikasa. He also doesn't sympathize her for wanting to even throw her life away for Eren, even if he's ready to jump into danger to help her. The resentment that has been a strong emotion surrounding Jean's opinion over Eren isn't the only feeling he feels towards the guy. There is also respect over his courage and his titan shifter abilities. While he still mostly thinks of him annoying for being so close to Mikasa, he tries to get along with him at least a bit more. Though he still doesn't understand why a rational person like Armin would be so dedicated towards Eren, but it doesn't change the fact he gets along with Armin rather well. IN-DEPTH Quirk: Whenever Jean sees his reflection on something he wants to destroy whatever it is. ABILITIES WEAPONS: n/a STYLE: Melee SKILLS: Levelheaded, Leader-type Jean is good with three-dimensional gear he uses in his world. He has good muscles because using the gear uses all of the muscles in his body. He is also good at reading the situation and deciding what to do next. He's easy to relate to because he's not a stronger than you hero and rather a normal soldier like others. Essence AbilitiesEssence Abilities: 1) Strength boost. 2) Item; enchanted rose. Every now and then a petal falls and his appearance changes into a more beast-like form. The changes start small but as the petals fall the changes get worse. 3) Item; Magical Mirror. Allows him to see someone he's thinking about. Doesn't work on anyone not in the world. 4) Transformation; if he makes terribly bad mistakes (like hurts someone mentally or physically, break a law, break something he isn't supposed to etc) he will temporarily go into a full Beast appearance with even stronger stength and tearing any normal-sized clothes he might have on. To reserve he will have to do a good deed in return. It has to be done with genuine intent. | Later on, he'll have the chance to learn how to voluntarily shift between his normal and Beast forms and partially transform. Description of the Beast form: horns, fangs, ears of a lion, tail of a wolf, tusks of a wild boar and bear like paws on both his hands and feet - hands having sharp claws. Body full of fur. Around 2 meters tall. 4.a) New trigger after Alice in The Wonderland Story Campaign: Swifts into a Beast when attacking people. If it's out of malice, it will take time to change back - but if out of defense then he can change by his own will. 5) Unlocked with points: Wolf cub familiars. Two small wolf cubs that follow Jean around. They're mainly just cute and small and very attached to Jean. 6) Unlocked with points: a third wolf cub that can be more independent and protect his friends when asked. Asked to specifically accompany one Weiss Schnee. 7) New Ability after Frankenhyde campaign: A howl that can temporarily paralyze an opponent. Works only on his Beast form. HOUSING KEY: Visual (but red) LOCATION: In the woods APPEARANCE: A small, old castle in not so good shape on the outside    EXTRA: He also has a big ballroom a dining room/kitchen. The interior is very dark and gloomy and really gives a cursed vibe. The furniture in the castle move around on their own. One minute the chair is by the fireplace. The next it's by the window. Did you want to sleep in? Too bad, your bed just moved enough so the sunlight wakes you up. After Alice in the Wonderland, the furniture also have the ability to sing. Not talk. Sing. After Frankenhyde they have learned to talk. |
