Name            : Jacob Fox

Age              : 22

Eyes              : Piercing Blue with long feminine eyelashes, sometimes with
                        glasses

Hair              : Sandy blond, very short, just long enough to spike up with large amounts of hair gel

Complexion  : Due to working nights, he's mostly pale, with a slight farmers tan. No amount of shaving seems to help his seemingly constant 5 O-clock shadow, and no amount of sleep seems to help the ever darkening circles under his eyes.

Build            : Weighs 278 pounds, is heavily built but is slightly overweight

Birthmarks    : No major birthmarks or identifiers.

Clothing        : Mostly uniforms for work, but when at home or about, he wears jeans and t-shirts with sandals (no socks!). T-shirts include various band t-shirts, retro video game T-shirts, and plain t-shirts. In winter he wears a rather expensive English style black leather trench coat, and somehow makes it look less trashy then when Americans usually wear them

Occupation  : Detention Officer

Education    : High school diploma, some college (2 semesters as an English Lit. Major)

Background  :Jacob was raised in a mostly quiet home by mostly quiet parents. He has two brothers, younger then him, and one older half sister. He helped raise both of his younger brothers due to his parents working. His mother is an ex hippie who still smokes pot and cigarettes. He secretly blames his mothers pot habit for his undiagnosed ADD. His little brothers both look up to him as the logical one in the family, and frequently come to him for advice. He barely knows his half sister, and his father is dead.

Personality  : Although he would never admit it, he has a tenancy to pick his nose, and has a mild case of ADD, making his thoughts jump around in a sometimes unusual manner. Its not completely noticeable until you start to get to know him and he pops up in a conversation with something completely off the wall and unrelated seeming. Jacob is quiet a lot of the time, usually just watching everything with wide open eyes. Although he's loathe to admit it, he stays quiet most of the time in order to collect his thoughts into a somewhat organized manner before he vocalizes them. The upside to this is the fact that he almost always thinks about what he's going to say before he says it. When excited or upset, he has a tenancy to talk fast and mix up words. (for example, instead of saying “The car is red!” he might say “The rar is ced!” or “The red is car!”). He is an avid believer in race equality and human rights. He is politically very liberal and is avidly against the two party system. Most people wont find this out from him though, because he knows when to hold his tongue. He loves to debate and hates to argue. The most easy way to see him pissed off is to argue illogically with him when he is trying to          debate logically with you.

Hobbies          : He loves reading, playing video games, playing board games, debating, and watching movies. He is not a huge fan of TV, but enjoys watching Law and Order, Monk, Psych, Burn Notice, Witness Protection, and Cartoons  (anything but scooby-doo, Smurfs, and the snorks)
