Talents Jasper has a talent for knowing what gets people riled up. Whether it be with them laughing, or being angry, he knows what keeps peoples boats floating. He was born to be an entertainer and uses that to his advantage. He also has a weasel like knack to himself. Though he lives outside the law, he always has a way to get back onto the right side. Whether it’s through money or another alternative, Jasper is ready for bad things to happen.
Flaws Jasper lacks forethought in many situations. He has a bad tendency towards hurting people on a personal level because of his live and let live philosophy. He also is a rather compulsive liar. His stories about the war are all greatly exaggerated, and if one were to look into it, they’re completely inaccurate and impossible. He doesn’t have a very “committed” sort of personality when it comes to woman, which does lend itself to problems from time to time. He’s a rather shallow person in many ways, but at the same time, it’s part of his charm.
History: Jasper comes straight off of Persephone. He was a prime pick of the middle class living in most way, except most subjects in school. He was a very popular youth, and a very charismatic sort of person. He went off to a university and learned about the entertainment industry. He didn’t quite have the stomach to continue on all the way through it, because of all the nonsense and teaching. He believed that being entertaining was a natural ability people, it was all a matter of using their talent. He knew how to use his, and so he applied at a cortex broadcasting studio. It was no surprise that he got a job as one of their extremely late night host/commentators. His specific show was very popular, and so he was gradually moved into better positions and given a wider format to go off of. He was very big on commentating on topical pieces, and current events. He was rather outspoken in his criticisms against the Central Planets, mainly because most of his followers weren’t on the Central Planets, or came from the poorer portions of the core, so no one cared. When the Unification War came about he got very vocal, and was a rather good morale booster for the war effort, especially when he announced he was joining the Independents. He joined right at the very beginning, but it was very obvious to him that he wasn’t cut out for combat. He was weak, and insubordinate. The men in his platoon liked him, but he and his superiors knew this wasn’t the place for him. He saw combat only in the first few months. While deployed on Ezra, a piece of shrapnel just nicked his leg. The wound was nothing, but he made it out to be much more then it was. He was taken out of combat, and sent home. He was welcomed back to Persephone with open arms, and got right back into his broadcast position. Now he was more outspoken then ever, advocating what happened, and comparing it his own (Embellished) experiences. But when the Alliance began bombing Persephone, he wasn’t so brave as to stay, so he went mobile. The broadcast studio funded a large transport, and converted it into a mobile cortex broadcast studio. It was only intended to be temporary, but Jasper was it’s main profit point. After the war ended, the studio went completely bankrupt, but didn’t want to pay up its debts. So everyone cut ties and ran. Jasper used the opportunity to take over the studio barge. He deals lots of advertisements and is very popular on the border and rim, so they make quite a bit of money. Though in an act of defiance, they never bought their broadcast license re-up, and they have about 4 years of illegal broadcasting. But they stay away from the alliance, and have a good camouflage in case the alliance comes knocking. He is a friend to many who dislike the alliance, but isn’t very big advocate of serious criminals (though his broadcasts suggest otherwise).
