Name: Jesse Alan Warren

Age: roughly 97; appears to be 19-21

Species: Vampire/Day-Walker

Gender: male

Sexuality: demiromantic heterosexual

Appearance: Tall and lean, with the build of a runner, one wouldn't expect him to be as physically fit as he is. Jesse has a pale complexion mostly due to his spending more time indoors and/or only really liking to go outside at night. He had dark black hair that is somewhat short in the back but long enough in the front to frame his face in an M-style bang haircut. He inherited his light hazel-blue-green eyes from his father as well as his defiant jaw and unusually sharp teeth that he refused to let any dentist file down (as they don't know they're his fangs).
He has a few scars here and there from various fights he's gotten into; most noticeably a stab wound scar on the left of his chest (though it has long since healed). He also has a birthmark shaped similarly to a small cloud on the middle of the outside of his left thigh.
Jesse is a highly casual dresser and wears basically whatever he feels like or puts his hands on. Usually he can be seen wearing faded jeans with holes torn and tattered at the knees and dirtied brick-brown hiking boots. His favorite shirt is a black tee with a white fanged skull printed on the front and the words "I BITE" written in red. Over his shirt he wears an open long-sleeved green plaid shirt that's visibly and highly noticeably worn and faded from years of use; it's one of three items left behind for him by his late father.

Personality: Jesse is fluent in the wonderful language of sarcasm and isn't hesitant to show it if he sees fit to do so. Full of snark, wariness, and a general lack of trust for others he isn't exactly Mr. Friendly. However, he can be very upbeat and nice to those he considers true friends and family, but that's as far as the line goes. With everyone else he honestly has no care unless they're being unjustly or derogatory to someone else without cause. If he catches wind of this he will go as far as to openly defend a total stranger if he feels they have been wronged. Jesse is the type to do and say what's on his mind no matter the consequences and he doesn't give a rat's patootie what anyone thinks or has to say about it; don't like his manner of speech, dress, or opinions? well phooey on you too...
He cares very little for the world's option of him and only really takes notice of the thoughts of his family and close friends. He is a fighter at heart and has a protective streak a mile wide, there's not much that can or will stop him once his "buddies" have been messed with. And woe to any who do so.
But that aside Jesse's mostly a relaxed and chill person, not bothering with all the worries of life. He's the 'go-with-the-flow' type and can be very lazy at times. Make no mistake, however, he has a sharp mind and an even sharper tongue. Always aware of his surroundings and what's happening around him it's rather difficult to catch him by surprise. Though sometimes comical if you do~

Abilities: enhanced strength, senses, speed, reflexes, and exceptional night vision.

Weaknesses: he can't see very well at all in daylight or bright lights in general. Silver burns him as if made of fire. He can only go so many days without feeding (same as if a human went without food or water basically).

Relatives: mother (whereabouts unknown), father (deceased), sister (whereabouts unknown, thought to be deceased)

Background: He lived a normal life with his parents and sister up until he was about eight years old. It was then that his mother seemingly went mad and tried to kill him, believing he was a horrible heir and wanting to be rid of him for another son to be raised as a better heir. Though his father stopped her before she could seriously harm Jesse, took him, and went on the run. During all of this his sister mysteriously disappeared and to this day Jesse has no idea what became of her.
His mother chased after he and his father night and day. Either her having the upper hand at being a Day-Walker and not having to hide from the sun as vampires must. This made running from her difficult, but Jesse's father managed to do it. For a while at least. They were eventually hunted down and Jesse's mother killed his father in right in front of him when he was thirteen. Jesse ran from her once more and was later found by police and taken into the foster care system. He went from home to home to home and never quite managed to stay in one place long. At fifteen he ran away and never looked back.
All he had left of his father was a tattered green plaid shirt, a beat up white pickup that he had to steal back from someone who's stolen it before, and a silver lighter that he'd never seen his dad touch with his bare hands. Jesse at one point did have an old photo of his dad but he buried it in place of a body and visits an old rock used as a tombstone in place of a grave.
He lived on the streets until a few years later when he was found by and accepted into the Evergreen Pack, where he resides to this day. Though he does tend to wander from time to time and show back up randomly. It was in the forest well behind Hank's old barn that he made the makeshift grave for his dad, partly because he knew it to be a safe spot and partly to ensure Hank and the others that he would always return to matter how far or how long he went away.
He met quite a few friends there on that old farm, and others while out roaming away from it. With so many connections he has managed to thus far outrun, outwit, and outmaneuver his mother for seventy-eight years.
He hasn't seen her for quite some time now, but he knows she'll return... She won't stop until she's either rid of him and has another heir or is lying six feet under.

Other: He claims respect must be earned, not given.
He is capable of drinking small amounts of liquid other than blood but can't have too much or it'll make him sick, he only does so when trying not to let on about what he really is.
He's left his father's truck in Hank's possession as he prefers to travel on foot than by any other means unless absolutely necessary.
He's allergic to kiwis.
He loves history.
He's been to jail once or twice in his lifetime but was bailed out. But his records have mysteriously disappeared....
His favorite color is a dull dark green.
His favorite drink is really sour pickle juice.
He can ride horseback though no one really knows when, where, why, or how he learned...

Jesse was at first a full blooded vampire but later that was changed when his mother was changed to a Day-Walker.

He has an actual place of residence, but no one knows where nor does he actually go there very often....

If asked his age he'll reply based on how well he knows you and whether or not he actually likes you.
If he does: he'll be honest. 97.
If he doesn't: he'll lie (sorta). 19.
If he hates you: you'll get a smart aleck and/or sarcastic response....       

He went without a last name for years. And without a middle name until last year...
