Name: Jacob "Jack" Smith
Alias: Changes depending on the job
Age: 27
Appearance: when not disguise Jack is a well built, broad shouldered ginger of Irish American decent with short combed hair and striking ocean blue eyes. he always wears a confident look, as if he knows something about everyone he is observing, even if they've never met him before. He measures 5'9" and weighs approximately 170lb. A lover of chaos and unpredictability his outfit changes day to day depending on his mood, ranging form beat up jeans and a band tee to slacks and a collared shirt. He'll occasionally wear a suit, but those are less common, being expensive and hard to replace should they get damaged.
Scent Profile: Jack's scent profile can be confusing, varying greatly with how often he changes personas and characters. The most noticeable and consistent scents, however, are the glaze donuts he has for breakfast, motor oil form fixing his own vehicles, and black tea he drinks consistently through out the day.
Powers: Jack possesses the ability to shapeshift, capable of completely altering his appearance in every way so long as it is human. The greater the transformation, however, the longer and more painful the process is. On two occasions he has successfully changed his gender, and on 5 occasions changed the ethnicity he appears as. These transformations, however, required excruciating 8-12hr processes of bone structure changing, organs shifting, and certain more awkward alterations he doesn't talk about. Jack usually sticks to keeping his actual physical transformations to a minimum, perhaps adding or removing bags or dark circles to his eyes, creating freckles or wrinkles, or slightly adjusting the size of his vocal chords. These are fairly quick and painless and can be done in 20 minutes or less depending on how exaggerated the changes are. The rest of his disguise is completed through his skill with a disguise kit. Combining these two abilities allows him to create rather elaborate personas ranging from a broke college student, to a trained and experienced Federal Agent, to a skilled handyman.
Equipment: Jack owns several vehicles, his favorites being a green 1995 F-150 he inherited from his dad, a red triumph tiger t100 he bought with cash from a scrapper and rebuilt--he nicknamed it Arnold--and a black 1996 Chevy suburban. He also has his disguise kit he uses to compliment his shapeshifting. This contains things such as makeup, costumes, and fake IDs and document,. For weapons he has a trusty pocket knife he got from his uncle when he was 13 and a snub nose .38 J Frame he stole on one of his first jobs. Despite being quite skilled with both of these weapons, and being perhaps too fond of using them, he often refrains as a fight is messy and leaves a trail. Having said that never assume his threat is empty, or do, it would make his day.
Bio: As far as Jack knows he has always possessed his meta ability, although it didn't begin to reveal itself until he was a toddler. As a result he has always been a fan of chaos and rule breaking, causing trouble in school, pulling pranks on his friends, the works. In middle school he started learning to be more subtle about these things, discovering that its only rule breaking if you're caught. He became a master of lies and even became quite skilled at pinning his "crimes" on other students. In high school he graduated to shoplifting. They cant catch you if you look like one person when you walk in and another when you walk out. He left home as soon as he finished high school to pursue a life of crime, chasing the high he gets the thrill of danger and of his own confidence. His greatest fascination, after famous con-men, was theater, from which he learned the arts of acting, costumes, and makeup. Since he started professional crime hes always been careful to keep his real name out of any criminal records, never even getting a speeding ticket. He leads a seemingly normal life in a small town in Wyoming as a small time author and blogger, although he owns several homes under different aliases. Besides his house in Wyoming he keeps one other home under his legal name, a comfortable condo in Pittsburgh he saves for when he chooses to go on vacation. A yearly occurrence that typically happens between summer and fall. He does visit it periodically throughout the year, however, just to keep it in shape and up to HOA standards.
His MO is to find a good story to blog about a few towns away from his con. he'll then set up shop in that town, booking a room, making himself comfortable. Once he has established himself in the town, hell take a bus to a nearby town, paying for his ride in cash, and rent a car under an alias in that town. He'll then move onto the target's home city, booking a hotel room under a second alias. He'll then clear up the job as quick as he can, usually in under a week, and move back to his original town with an elaborate, but surprisingly believable story, for his absence.
