[b]27 | Jackson “The Punisher” Smith | He/Him [/b][hr//][i]" What’s the difference between a hippo and a zippo..."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Jackson is a tall, thin, man with nary a muscle to his name.  He typically keeps his hair short, and his beard long and mostly unkempt.  He prefers a simple attire, with sneakers, plain jeans, and old band t-shirts.  Besides the obvious acne scars that dot his face, evidence of a battle long since won, there is nothing that decorates his face.  He has never had a tattoo or a piercing.

Jackson grew up in Seattle and was often bullied throughout his youth.  He likes to think these traumatic memories gave him his sense of humor, however, that would require him to have a sense of humor in the first place.  He had a chance run-in with a paranormal being late one night, which forced him through his kindling event.  Ever since then Jackson has had delusions of grandeur and has tried to use his powers to finally break into the comedy scene.  A scene that he does not belong in.

Ever since he was practically run out of Seattle, he has called St. Portwell his home.  He is often spotted at one of the few bars that host an open mic night, or browsing the art selection at the 317.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
[indent]The Punisher: Jackson is a Pink Lux adept who is able to make friends and foes alike do simple commands through his jokes.  These jokes do not have to be good, and often the worse the joke the stronger the effect of his abstraction.  His channeler is a necklace that has a microphone.  When he goes to use his abstraction, he has to have one hand on his channeler.  He can compel people to do three things with his abstraction.  Give up, give in, and give it all.

Give up: Jackson can influence his jokes to carry a knockout punch.  He focuses all the memories of his pathetic younger years before he gained his power.  The feeling of helplessness, the feeling of being powerless, and the feeling of not being enough.  This is an area-of-effect spell and can be used to sway the feelings of everyone in a nearby area.  This is a form of Mind Control.  If the spell lands, it will force those afflicted to throw their hands into the arm, swear at the joke, and leave the area before they can be subjected to another one

Give In: As well, Jackson can influence his jokes to give them the delivery of a lifetime.  He focuses all his aspirations for the future, his goals to a comedian with a special, and his desire to be loved into his jokes.  This is another area-of-effect spell that forces those who fall under its mind-controlling powers.  With this spell, he can compel people to give in to his suggestions.  Whether that is to clap at his joke, demand an ecour, or give him what he wants.  He has used this power to skate by in Seattle, and it was what got him run out of the city by the local paranormal powers.

Give it all:  His final spell is one that only works on a single target.  He can use his joke to compel someone to give it their all, whether in life or a fight.  This spell provides clarity, focus, and strength of mind to its target and can help bolster emotional fields as well.[/indent]
