Personality

Jacks personality can best be described as "Abrasive". Spending a lifetime being haunted by the spirits and the dead alike havent done much for his interpersonal skills.

A functioning alcoholic, Jack has turned to drinking heavily in his later years in order to deal with his situation. Normally calculating and hesitant. Jack will become quite emboldened as he indulges and often loses many inhibitions otherwise present.

As the years drew on, Jacks mental health declined along with his physical. When hes off his meds, everyone is going to suffer for it. He can be quite the pessimist.

Those spending any amount of time around him will be quick to note that at times Jack will often speak aloud to himself. Most times in English, other times in gibberish. Even so far as to engage in the odd argument!


Mortal World

Jack is still very much in touch with the mortal world in his day to day activity. Active on the various supernaturally inclined message boards and groups out there.

  • Jack is well known in the various related Ghost sighting/hunting forums. Both the ones with the liars and braggarts and the far more real channels underneath.
  • Still prefering to source his information from a more tangible source, Jack can often be spotted in the Cities library's. Particularly those at the various university campuses early in the morning


Having recently moved back to Perth from the North-West, Jacks Caravan is currently parked up in the Wilbinga Reserve and can often be found at the Two Rocks Tavern after 6pm.
