Jackie Stiles
Personal Information
Appearance
Jackie is well built, handsome and dressed like your classic, rugged greaser complete with leather jacket and the smell of sweat and gasoline. He proudly wears a crucifix tattoo over his jugular along a myriad of scars across his body from both before and after his embrace. Most notably however are Jackie's hands which are fused in "flippers" or "claws" due to being born with Ectrodactyly.
Mechanics: Striking Looks 2, Deformity
Personality
For the most part Jackie comes across as charming if a bit arrogant and smug but people just can't help but like him when he smiles. He genuinely loves and revels in his cursed and damned condition, seeing God's work as something to be celebrated rather than mourned and takes every opprotunity to show it and do his duty. Jackie also sees it as something of his duty to show other kindred that their condition and more "conventional sinning" is nothing to worry about, the damned do not and should not be bound my mortal morals as they've already been damned and it is their purpose to be damned.
There are also a few who've been unfortunate enough to see Jackie's temper which is a truely TERRIFYING sight usually followed by bloodshed and mass property damage. Whatever you do - don't call him a Freak.
Mortal World
Jackie holds tight to the Eigth Canon that kine are not friends, companions nor lovers - neither are they toys or puppets to be abused for the sake of entertainment or sport. He avoids interacting with them for the most part unless he's specifically going after sinners to put a little fear-of-God into.
