- 6’2”
ＷＥＩＧＨＴ
- 180 lbs
ＨＡＩＲ ＣＯＬＯＲ
- Unlike the world he is inhabiting, Junko’s hair is naturally bright red, as per his Scotish Heritage. Which translates that his great grandad was a redheaded Scotsman, and somehow he got the same genetic mutation to give him red hair. After finally being able to embrace it, Junko hasn’t cut it since he left home - it just doesn’t seem to grow that fast, hence why it hasn’t reached neck length yet. It’s also ungodly unruly, as no matter what he does to it, at least two strands will stick out from his forehead, and cover his face.
ＥＹＥ ＣＯＬＯＲ
- Jun’s eyes are a soft brown, with a bit of hazel mixed in. Most people would say their piercing, but Junko thinks their ungodly dull.
ＳＫＩＮ ＴＯＮＥ
- Slightly tan, but paler than most due to his heritage (seriously that 1/8 really does a number to his appearance.
ＧＥＮＥＲＡＬ ＡＰＰＥＡＲＡＮＣＥ
- Junko’s entire appearance almost makes him look he is a full-gem, except without the green. He sticks out like a sore thumb in most if not all of Japan, seeing as how he is a head taller than the average height, and wears a mop of red hair on his head. Because of this, most people find it strange that he would be standing so straight and tall: rather than slinking down to stay out of sight, Junko carries himself with a lack of carrying for the world.
When it comes to body types, Junko is a very well built kid who indeed ‘does lift’. He has the broad shoulders of one who works out constantly, and is even when it comes to his torso to leg ratio. At first glance, it does look like Junko is a little skinny to be a brawler, but that’s where people make the first mistake: while not as big as some of the people he has fought, Jun’s body has packed his muscles on tightly, making them efficient and making him sturdy and tough.
Scars are something that Junko doesn’t like to play out to the world, so he keeps himself mostly covered. However, they are numerous, such as the pitchfork scar in his abdomen, or the when he was cut by broken glass during a brawl. Other than the earring stuck in the top of his left ear, Junko is as he is.
'They say that we are shaped by our surroundings, but that isn't always true; sometimes, we have to decide how we want ourselves to act to survive.

✦ Brash ✧ Untrusting ✦ Independent ✧ Lively ✦
Junko is the kind of guy that parents would refuse their kids to hang out with,or ever let their daughter near date. It isn’t because Junko is the stereotypical ‘bad boy’, but because the stereotype just doesn’t do him justice. Rather than being a ‘bad boy’, the stereotype that would fit him better would be ‘hellraiser’.
This care free attitude is actually stemmed from an underlying hatred for all forms of authority, which was spawned do to Junko's dirt poor upbringing. He loathes those that think they know what is best for him, what laws he should follow, what he should attend: as if these people are supposed to be his idols or something. What makes it worse is when said rich people/authority figures attempt to use their 'justice' or 'higher authority' on Junko himself, as he sees this as people trying to feel better or higher up than he is. Combine his natural impulsive nature, and Junko finds himself in too many brawls, riots and arguments with authority or 'holier than thou' people. Junko can't help it: he loves to prove his point to these other people through whatever means he has at his disposal, regardless of what problems may start, or if he knows he will lose.
It certainly doesn’t help that he is, in essence, a very chaotic person by nature. He never is able to stay still, always bouncing from one conversation to another, even if he says little to nothing. He is never afraid to be his crazy, wild self in public, since he only has a mild interest in how others look at him. If somebody needs an icebreaker or mood lifter, Jordan would easily be one to call - somehow the guy can find witty or obscure things to say that will life nearly anybody's mood. Even though Jordan doesn't always keep himself open to others, he is best known for ‘breaking down the barriers’ between people; even if he doesn’t mean to.
This chaotic nature is the one thing that few people can ever seem to get past; due to his inability to stay rooted anywhere, Junko will constantly rotate through Japan, travelling alone and living wherever he can get work. His excuse? He doesn’t like getting used to things - it makes them permanent, and he doesn’t like permanence. While many would then think he would be pretty focused on moving around, Junko has a lacking ability to focus as well; he will constantly keep switching conversational topics if they bore him or if he gets distracted. Makes it difficult for him to engage in lengthy conversations, but it isn’t like he wanted to do that anyway.
Underneath all of his flitty nature lies a sheer bitterness, fueled by the betrayal of those he cared for. Junko finds it nearly impossible to trust people with almost anything, even if it appears that he is being honest. Junko’s entire chaotic nature spawned from this lack of attachment, as his inability to cope with the betrayal of his past lead him to constantly moving on when things get familiar in order to make sure that nothing will ever betray him. It’s not a foolproof plan, but it has worked so far.

- ✦Anarchy - Could you expect anything less? The more chaotic, the better. Junko believes that there shouldn’t be any overheads, no authority: the people should rule themselves, and dictate how they should live. If that meant that some would be culled out because of it, Junko could care less.
✧Riots and Fighting - Not really unexpected from a guy who hates the government, is it? Junko loves clashing with anybody, and usually is that third party member that joins into a random fight just because his blood is pumping.
✦Sunshine - Odd trait, but Junko is actually a really big day person. He loves the warmth of the sun, the happiness it gives off.
✧Alcohol - Junko didn’t become a bartender because he liked serving people; his upbringing, and his love for alcohol created the dream for him.
✦Travelling - While driven by his personality, Junko does indeed love to travel. He loves seeing the world in a different light than what he is used to, even if he doesn’t stay for very long. The scenery, the people and the journey are what make it so invigorating for him to constantly keep travelling, no matter how lonely he sometimes gets.

- ✦Governmental Bodies - No surprise here, but Jordan really hates most forms of government. As a guy who grew up dirt poor, watching them waste their time doing useless banter made him sick to his stomach as a kid, and he plans on giving them a piece of his mind.
✧Money - Weird for a traveller to hate money, but Junko hates the stuff more than almost anything. It symbolizes everything he hates in the world; the need to constantly keep working, the need for government to regulate, the need for the constant grind. Whatever money he makes, it almost instantly disappears into supplies for his next trip, or ends up being left behind.
✦’The Perfect’ aka the upper class - Their uselessness is on par with the government, but instead of wasting the people’s money, the rich waste the people’s time and possibly lives. The rich are able to flaunt the wealth that, to Junko means nothing; yet they get to think they are better than the rest?
✧Relationships - Junko sees them as a waste of time, and a waste of energy. And we aren’t talking about dating or whatnot, we are talking about most relationships in general; rivals, friends, hated enemies. They are all too much work to maintain, so Junko just doesn’t care for them.
✦Supermarkets - Oh sure, it’s pretty damn easy to steal at a super market, but everything else about it pisses him off. The whole one stop shop, the bussling noise of the people. For some reason, he just hates super markets, and rarely goes to one.

- ✦ANSWER - EXPLANATION
✧Barkeeping - The only way Junko knows how to make money is through running bars. Well, at least legally anyway. Regardless, Junko knows numerous drink mixes and understand the conducts of how to interact with people across from a bar - even if all he is supposed to do is either lend an ear or cut somebody off.
✦Brawling - While not entirely experienced at a 1v1 fight as those that practice, Junko thrives and excels in a brawling environment. He somehow knows when to duck to avoid a punch, and when to kick a certain guy. This doesn’t mean Junko is bad at fighting normally, as he is still really damn good - he just prefers brawls more, and thrives in them better.
✧Sketching - What else do you expect a kid to do when all he does is travel and barkeep? Junko drew a lot as a kid since he had little else to do when he wasn’t working or hanging out with his friend. While he wouldn’t consider himself fantastic, he isn’t a slouch when it comes to drawing people’s faces.
ＦＬＡＷＳ
- ✦ANSWER - EXPLANATION
✧Stability - Junko isn’t stable in any way, except for the fact that he can stand on two feet. He constantly keeps moving, constantly has to keep his mind preoccupied by other things; he rarely stays put anywhere or in anyway, which can hinder him quite a lot when it comes to learning the new things of an area, or striking conversation.
✦Bitterness - Junko is too driven by his betrayal to ever let it go, even if he doesn’t look like he is on the outside. This makes him extremely irritating when trying to form groups of friends or create any relationships with others, as he laughs them off as wasteful. While he doesn’t look like it, Junko has started to feel lonely; but he refuses to admit it.
✧Hot Tempered - Just as the pendulum swings the way of lively and energetic, it also swings to the other side; Junko’s hot headed streaks. He has a problem keeping his anger in check, and has been known to lash out at many people throughout his life.
ＦＥＡＲＳ
- ✦Heights - Junko has never been one for heights - they terrify him, which is why you will rarely see him on the second floor of a building, or doing that ‘cool’ thing where the protagonist broods on the roof. That sounds terrifying.
✧Betrayal - As outlined in his history, Junko has seen the face of betrayal numerous times and has come to not only loathe it, but also fear it immensely. He fears that attaching himself to anybody will run the risk of him getting burned again, which he refuses to do.
✦Canines - Random yet real fear, Junko isn’t all that snuggly with most forms of dogs. They freak him out, even if people keep talking about how they are loyal and adorable; all he sees are the vicious things that would torment him as a kid.
"People have always stated that those that are different will be shunned for life; funny then, how one that is shunned for life feels no different when they are gifted with something that is abnormal even for a human."

- As per the name of the stone, Junko’s newly found power is the ability to control his own blood, and sometimes the blood of others. To specify, Junko has discovered that his power has two real specialities - healing and attack.
Healing is the strongest ability Junko has, as that is what the Heliotrope is best known for. He can heal wounds much quicker than others, including the wounds of others. He can increase or decrease the flow of blood, making bleeding out quite difficult. However, these healing powers come with limitations; for starters, his healing factor is really made for himself. He has to use his own blood to heal others, which requires him to extract blood from his own veins in any way necessary. Decreasing the flow of blood is also quite dangerous over a lengthy period of time, as blood is what carries oxygen; technically he would be suffocating himself in order for the process to work, hence why he rarely uses it on himself, and only rarely on others. To combat this, Junko’s natural ability is to regenerate blood cells at an alarmingly rapid rate, to combat blood loss; however, this only works during the daytime; at night, he has only a slight advantage.
Attack is the other aspect, which he has found only little niche uses for. Using only his own blood, Junko can harden it to the likeness of steel; it looks quite similar to jade crystals when it does, giving it a pretty look. However, Junko has no ability to make blood float or any of that weird stuff; the laws of gravity still apply to his blood, no matter how much he wishes they didn’t.
Now, this is all well and fine, but the problem is that Junko’s personality conflicts AND supports his newfound powers. For whatever reason, blood feeds best off of his calm emotional state, when his heart rate is average; yet when his blood is pumping hot and he is getting worked up, his powers usually get out of control if attempted to activate. Sure, he doesn’t mind his own blood seeping from his pores and crystalizing from time to time, but there have been numerous cases where he would lose control of his gift, and cause his internal systems to go crazy. He cannot count the number of times he has passed out due to his blood thinning when he got excited, or being unable to sleep because his heart rate refuses to lower.
ＷＥＡＰＯＮ
- Just like with the powers, your character has a weapon unique to them that resembles their gemstone. For instance, a rose quartz may have a vine whip of thorns. Again, if you aren't sure about this, just ask. Each character only gets one weapon.
"The past is what we remember, that which came before us; yet it means nothing.

- Full-gems can procreate just like humans, although it's not entirely necessary for their species to survive, so it's up to you to say whether your character had parents or siblings, or if they were one of the ones born directly from the stars.
ＢＩＯ
- Both full and half gems should be able to fill this out. At least three paragraphs.
