Appearance:
Personality: Jack has an eerie and mysterious aura, but he appears to mean no harm. He rarely speaks, adding to the uncertainty most have concerning him. He appears to be well with children, usually being able to make even the most depressed happy. He is able to do mostly anything, from coding on computers to making little wooden houses, but he is not adept at any specific thing. He is a jack of all trades, and a master of none. He thinks that if he ever dissapears from reality, that no one will notice. He has a slight fear of the darkness, but this is simply a primal fear, or that's what most think. The reason for his fear of the dark, is ironically, darker than most people think. He would talk more if he could, but he's mute. He ironically, fears never being heard. He enjoys playing piano, but he cannot make original compositions. He can, unsurprisingly, be a good person for telling your problems to. He knows sign language, but he rarely meets anyone who can read sign language. He communicates by nodding his head or using a notebook for complex communication.
History: Jack was born into a hispanic family that owned quite a bit of gold. His father was a rich business owner, emphasis on the was. His father died when Jack was ten, so Jack never had an emotional attachment. His mother was long gone, from the day Jack was one. She died from a sickness, so she didn't just leave on a whim. Jack's grandfather cared for him. Jack's grandfather was named Alexander or Alejandro as his untranslated name is. Alexander was a farm owner, but he sold his farm as soon as farming became almost useless. Alexander enjoyed farming, but, farming didn't produce enough money. Jack inherited all of his family's money, and his grandfather could handle all the legal things. Alexander was a wise old man, at age 45, yet he wasn't perfect. Jack naively thought that his grandfather was the most intelligent man in and outside the world. Jack was homeschooled by his grandfather till age seven. He then was enrolled into normal school, having a better education than most. Jack, however, still learned many things from his grandfather, mostly for surviving and how to create simple machines. He made a little amount of friends, and those friendships were mediocre at most. He couldn't talk, so that disuaded people even with his rich status.
Alexander expected the virus to come any time soon, since mankind always managed to screw things up. So Alexander decided to teach his grandchild many things. The things that Alexander couldn't teach, were taught by books and or private mentors. jack wears an eyepatch over one eye, so he can adapt to light quickly. Alexander managed to be unaffected slightly longer than most adults, but, he knew that he would eventually succumb to the virus. Alexander decided to begin preparing Jack in many other trades, but Alexander could never focus too much on one area. Jack knew that he would either have to kill his grandfather or leave, but he couldn't bring himself to do either. Alexander knew that death was inevitable, and that one of the two would have to die, so he decided to try killing himself. He hanged himself and left a note on the table, reading Jack, I'm proud of you. You've grown up to become a good kid. I wanted to live out the rest of my life with you, but, that is sadly not possible. We both know that this was inevitable, but, I don't want to force you to kill me. Survive, find friends, and don't let me down. ~ Tu Abuelo"(~ Your grandfather) Jack was shocked by this note and the fact that his grandfather had died, but, he didn't want to waste his grandfather's sacrifice. He sickengly felt relieved that he didn't have to kill his grandfather, but, he felt disgusted that he would think such a thing. He grabbed essential things, a varied pocket-knife, a screwdriver, a laptop, a cord, a hand powered charger for his laptop, and a backpack. He brought some seeds, for farming uses of course. He made sure to bring some watermelon seeds, preserved, in case he needed to begin farming. He knew that he wouldn't be able to rely on wealth or his grandfather, but he didn't know if it would be possible for him to survive without adults to tell him what to do.
He heard about a place called RedBrook mall, since his family had a store there. He had the key to a hidden compartment in the store, used for storing things, so he thought that it would be simplest to go there and find whatever was in the compartment. He quickly managed to get to the mall, running to a bit of trouble along the way. He is now adapting to the mall setting.
Possessions: Preserved seeds, a multi-use pocketknife, a screwdriver, heads for the screwdriver, a laptop, a backpack, a multi-purpose cord to connect the laptop to other things, keys to open the cabinet, and finally a hand powered charger for his laptop.
Any other info: His right hand is slightly weakened, due to an unfortunate accident.
In the compartment there is: A safe with three different locks, each having their own combination. Inside the safe there is: A surprise.
