Admin Note: This character is now under this Jean account.
Note: Please note that Jean was an NPC here on DDE, but since he has developed much more as an actual character I felt it was time for him to be an actual character. With a real account. =D
A kind and rational man, but feared on the battle field.
"Behind this smile is a man that loves."
Name: Jean Cross
Age: 29
Race: Human
Astrological Sign: Leo- a sign of being courageous, strong, and protective.
Class/occupation: Head Bounty Hunter
Country of Origin: Veyyard
Country of Residence: Veyyard {Arthera, as that is where the bounty hunter's HQ is located.]
Weapons of choice: A rifle, and on ocassion hand guns. Depending on the assignment he can change the types of gun he uses to fit the situation, though it is rare to see him out on the battle field.
Nickname: Chief
Background: Jean was born and raised in Veyyard, one of the most dangerous places ever existed. As he grew up he observed how people in Veyyard interacted with each other, and it wasn't a loving or warm interaction. People yelled at each other, stayed up late partying, and even engaged in illegal activity. As he saw all of these things happening around him he made a vow to himself that day, that he would always try his best to give those that have suffered under this dangerous life style the justice that they deserved.
He trained night and day in using a gun, and he also promised that he wouldn't use it unless it was necessary. In addition to getting familiar with the use of a gun he also made himself aware of Veyyards whole outskirts, until eventually he memorized the place creating a mental map in his mind.
This map of his helped him divide up the places where illegal activity were most likely to occur, and to least likely to occur. Knowing this information made him realize that there were no safe places in Veyyard at all and that the civilians needed protection. Armed with this resolve he soon became a bounty hunter, performing small tasks and working his way up the ladder until one day he was recognized as the new Head of HQ. Now at the age of 29 he has the luxury of seeing people from all different generations come in and become bounty hunters since they all share the same goal, protecting the innocent. He had seen all sorts of people coming and going, and also learning different ways to teach people bounty hunting since people learn and grasp things at their own pace. Sometimes he has to be very patient and take it slow, other times there are those people that are fast learners.
There is one boy in particular that he met after coming into the postion of being a bounty hunter. His name was Zero. He remembers Zero as one to never smile at all, but always have a straight face, whenever he spoke or did his assignment, however Jean got a sense that Zero was very troubled, and possibly miss someone that is dear to him. Jean empathizied with Zero, but knew in time he would start feeling better about himself, so Jean never pushed Zero, he just allowed him to grow at his own pace, though he assured him that he would always be there for Zero like a fatherly figure.
One busy evening Jean was up to his neck in paper work and he thought like he was going to lose his mind. Well as god would have it, a telephone call came in to HQ and on the end of that line was an old friend of his named Madame May. Madame May had mentioned to Jean that a girl by the name of Mitsuko was willing to come by and give him a hand, as well as being curious in this line of work. Jean agreed to meeting this young woman, and as luck would have it this woman showed up at his door step. Jean was amazed by this woman's poise and positive energy, that he decided to give her a shot. While Zero was naturally against Mitsuko being a bounty hunter, because of the danger it involves Jean allowed this young woman to decide for herself what she wanted to do, as long as she was trained.
Presently Jean is coping with the feelings of Mitsuko being injured since her father attacked her, considering that Jean himself has now considered Mitsuko as his adoptive daughter. The other feeling he's dealing with? is being smitten by a woman named Rose, or Rosebud as he called her by accident. He feels himself getting closer to Rose as he gets to know her, and he has never told anyone this but he is slowly finding himself falling in love with her, but due to their age differences he hopes that he won't be scorned because of it. From the first meeting that he and Rose met, he felt a strong connection to her instantly, sort of like Zero and Mitsuko except Zero and Miki are best friends and don't have romantic feelings for the other but share a love in the purest form that has no strings attached.
Personality: Jean is a kind and rational man, as well as very fair, but when he sees an injustice being done he will interrogate you to no end until he gets the truth. He'll always give someone a chance to be honest before the interrogation begins but when someone keeps lying and lying to him, he gets very furious. He is a big believer in honesty as much as it hurts sometimes.
He's serious when he has to be and fun when he wants to be making him an invaluable chief. He also considers all of the bounty hunters that work under him as his children and not strangers, as he also believes that once you have a solid foundation in a work place anything is possible.
He has a loving fatherly personality that looks out for everyone.
Strengths and weaknesses: He is very intelligent and is able to scope out all of Veyyard and devise his next move, and make sure that any bounty hunters are working or even civilians are put to safety.
Physical strength: He is well trained with a gun so he is able to act as a sniper in most cases, when the assignment calls for it. Good hand eye coordination equals good gun control.
As he is human he is very VERY prone to exhaustion especially since he works late hours in the night, trying to keep the HQ's paper work under control. A workaholic if you will. And exhaustion equals getting sick. Being a workaholic is his mental weakness as it does make him feel mentally exhausted, and sometimes he wants to shut his brain off so to speak.
