Username: puck2robins.ashes
Name: Jacques Bouvier
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Mythology: Greek
God(dess) name: Poseidon, God of the Sea
Waking time: Average
Appearance: Jacques has shoulder length blonde hair that he normally ties back in a ponytail (
styled like this). He has grey-blue eyes that are very expressive while also very calming, like the ocean before a storm (
color). His eyes are a roundish-almond shape and are normally always smiling at every person he meets. He has a heart shaped face and enjoys wearing comfortable clothing, mostly due to his travelling, light hearted nature. However, he also tends to adapt to the culture in which he stays in for a period of time. He stands at about 5'8" and hovers between being skinny and lean, due to the fact that he doesn't always eat properly like he should. Most of the time he carries around a worn, old sack which he keeps a few of his belongings in. Due to all his travelling in Spain and now in Italy, he has a rather tan complexion, but nothing too dark due to his French origins.
Personality: As a child, Jacques was very quiet. He kept to himself and didn't say much. However he was a sweet and gentle child. As he grew up, that part of him never changed. When he entered senior high, though, he began to become more carefree and joyous. He talked more and socialized with others, even if he wasn't liked that much. Jacques follows a motto of "treat others how you would want to be treated". Even if someone treated him badly, laughed or made fun of him, he merely brushed it off with his own laugh. He has a light sense of humor and generally has an upbeat sort of lifestyle. However, just like everyone, he has a trigger. He doesn't like when people are harmed for no reason and gets very cold. He becomes almost a cruel and extremely defensive person. Overall, Jacques is generally a happy and calm person.
History: Born and raised in Gordes, France, Jacques never travelled the world. Most of his young years were spent living peacefully with his mother and father in their cottage. He attended school as a normal child did, but once he entered senior high, his life started to begin. As a child, he found he had a knack for talking with sea life. At first it was his pet goldfish who had spent two years with him; afterwards it was his hermit crab. Anything that had origin from the sea, Jacques found that he could speak with them. Though he never told his parents or any of his friends, no matter how cool of a talent he thought it was he knew it wouldn't be looked highly upon. Senior high changed all that, though. After living so long in France, Jacques knew that he had to travel the world. He had never seen any large body of water, no incredible desserts or immense forests. At the age of 15 he dropped out of high school and told his parents he wanted to travel. Both of them hadn't found it wise, but nevertheless agreed to it as long as Jacques kept in touch wherever he went, someway, somehow. From then on he travelled around France for a bit before catching a boat ride to Spain from Marseille. He spent a year and half there, just travelling around and learning about the country and language. Afterwards he made his way to Portugal. He spent a lot of his time down south before heading back through France to visit around Switzerland. Not really having a place of employment, or much of anything to call his own, Jacques dubbed himself a nomad for his wandering habits. After much traveling, he stopped home for a year, and now has decided to travel around Italy.
Power: Poseidon was the God of the Sea, created horses, and could create natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes with his triadent. Jacques, on the other hand, can't. Jacques has the talent to speak with sea life. Currently, he only can speak with fish and other small marine animals since that's all he's been exposed to. Later on, he will gain more of an ability to speak with marine life and even horses. He can also breathe underwater, but not for long (ten minutes at most) and anything longer can cause his lungs to have extreme damage, but this is also a later power. I have read these 17 rules completely.
Theme song: Best Day Of My Life - American Authors
Voice actor: Orlando Bloom - Legolas/Will Turner (Just imagine, ladies and gentlemen, this man with a French accent. Then BAM, you have Jacques)
Other: Jacques speaks both French and English, though his English can be a bit... Off. He also speaks Spanish and Portuguese, but not fluently as he does French and English. Jacques is also Buddhist and believes both in reincarnation and Karma, two major Buddhist beliefs.
