Jack Mac Paidin - Character Description
PERSONALITY
A complex mix of bravery and vulnerability, Jack approaches challenges with determination despite his inner doubts. His natural curiosity often drives him to investigate mysteries, though this can sometimes lead him into dangerous situations. While generally level-headed, he struggles with anxiety, particularly during asthma attacks, and can be initially skeptical to the point of stubbornness. His newfound magical abilities both excite and overwhelm him, creating an internal conflict between his desire to embrace his heritage and his fear of the unknown.
BACKGROUND
A twelve-year-old Portland, Oregon native from the prestigious Mac Paidin family, though raised unaware of his magical heritage. Separated from his siblings, Ethan and Sadie, at a young age, Jack lives with his aunt and uncle, who have kept secrets about his true identity. His life takes a dramatic turn when his magical abilities begin to manifest, forcing him to quickly adapt to a world he never knew existed. His connection to both his grandfather Edward and grandmother Lydia drives his actions as he navigates this new reality.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
A slender, fair-skinned young teenager with dark chocolate-brown hair and matching brown eyes. His physical presence is somewhat diminished by his asthmatic condition, which occasionally leaves him gasping for breath. Despite his lean frame, he carries himself with a quiet determination, though his posture often betrays his internal anxiety during stressful situations.
DIALOGUE STYLE
Jack's speech patterns reflect his youth and contemporary upbringing, but carry an underlying intelligence and maturity. When confronted with authority figures, he maintains a respectful but firm tone, though his voice may waver during moments of stress. His dialogue often includes questions, revealing both his curiosity and skepticism. During intense situations, his speech becomes more clipped and direct, especially when dealing with his asthma or magical experiences.
