Reason for choice:

Quite possibly the closest bjd head and body combo to my character!

Best Points:

He's just so ridiculously cute!

Worst Points:

That four-fingered hands are impossible to find, and digitigrade legs are so difficult to get a hold of. That's alright though, that's what modding is for. :)

Jack is one of the Guardians of MythHaven - a melting pot community of mythical creatures located in a realm parallel to our own - and his skills are considered legendary.

Key fashion accessory:

Suspenders or a tie

Name story:

Back in 2020 I created a character to personify how lucky I felt after a worrisome surgery turned out fine, so I created a faerie creature based on a deck of cards. My favorite card has always been the Jack of Hearts, so it was only natural to name him Jack.

Character age:

Still 16 after three centuries

Character gender:

Male

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Every human hero summoned to MythHaven over the last 300 years has chosen Jack as one of their two accompanying guardians for their quest and with good reason - this lad is not what he seems. His zoot suit style and Mid-Atlantic way of speaking suggest he's from 1940s Philidelphia but this "rabbit" is actually a pooka from 17th century Ireland! This athletic, well-mannered, dependable young man is also a mischievous shapeshifter when the mood strikes him. When that happens, shenanigans aren't far behind.

Survivalist, bare-knuckle boxer, swing dancer, hopeless romantic, great cook, prankster - whichever side of Jack you happen to see, be prepared for some sort of chicanery. One thing's for sure - it's a good thing he's on our side!
