Jak Takeshi

---

Name
Jak Lee Takeshi

Nickname
Jackie

Gender Male

Age 21

Nationality American

---

Appearance
Jak Stands at exactly 5'7" with brown eyes and as you could tell black hair. He at times can very from weight but usually comes back to his average wight which is 140lbs, Jak is also what you wouldn't call a muscle man but he does go to to gym every now and then. He wears whatever the boss/group/himself decide on but that's for shows, so he'll wear blue jeans, a black buttoned up shirt, and a army green shirt beneath.

Personality
Jak is what you would call an abnormal person. He doesn't really socialize in person, well unless you want a really awkward first interaction. He has no problem with online interactions (guess that's why his social media is always active) Jak just tends to have a rough time starting a conversation with someone new. He is really sweet and friendly and has most traits that make him a good friend, and he can easily befriend you if it seems you both have the same interests in something.

---

Likes/Advantages
Jak having Frank as a friend is what set him into the music world. In over two years he had heard of so many punk rock bands and a few others that basically put him where he is now. He has a good ear when it comes to telling if the music sounds good or not, and if it sounds bad he will speak his mind. He likes cats and has a pet cat named Buddy, same with dogs and also has a pet dog named Ein (the two get along greatly). Jak enjoys a good book every now and then whether it's a comic book or a series of novels. Also loves watching movies and playing video games.

Dislikes/Disadvantages
He dislikes Country, Opera, and most Orchestra music. He has a fear of... well... let's say a slow death, and he is alright with dying and all he just doesn't want to suffer through. So stuff like drowning, bleeding to death, etc. just doesn't fly with him. Sometimes he can get off track pretty easily if his mind deems the original task isn't that important. Also Jak has been known for procrastination so that's there.

Background
Not much can be said about Jak's life he lived a normal life played lots of video games as a kid which is where he meet both Zeik and Frank. Zeik and Jak were both a grade higher than Frank but really that didn't matter especially now. After Jak and Zeik graduated they spent a long while trying to find a new place to stay. They found a house which didn't cost much but it wasn't that big, so to save money more money they turned the garage into another three rooms this became the infamous three room studio they talk about. Of course once Frank graduated he joined in the house and that was that.

The band itself of course started small recording some songs and uploading them on the internet with occasional lives performances in town. Some people noticed them and joined in on a song or two, and of course these were just more small bands hoping to get big one day. It was like a I scratch your back you scratch mine type deal. The name Harth was well known around their hometown and some from other towns and even cities came to watch them play a live concert. One day bought a van to fit all of them and their instruments for a all around tour, and if you ask them they would say the day they got in that van and started the engine it was the best feeling in the world.

Harth became semi famous and has gone up in the top 100 charts a couple times. They have recorded three albums to this day one being a re-work of their original debut album "Over the Edge," and even to this day still collaborate with others with the same scratching each others backs system.

Oh, before I forget...Could you possibly make some sorta Insignia? If you look at the Character Tab, there's a picture above each Group or Individual telling which act they are. I don't have one for your character, so could you possibly make one, for style?

Jackson Carter

Jackson Carter

Nickname
[Completely Optional. Can be added Mid-RP if a Nickname is developed.]

Gender
Male

Age
24

Nationality(bit long with some explanation XD)
Country of origin: Denmark, however he was born to American Parents and moved to America at 2
Possesses a legal 'citizenship' in England where he has lived since he was 15.

---

Appearance
Tall and relatively well-built Jackson stands at 180cm (approximately 5'11"). Jackson's hair is a dark brown and relatively short with a fringe-like part that reaches his chin (Refer to picture; it's hard to explain). He possesses almond eyes with chocolate brown irises. His skin in a light golden colour from his time living in Florida. His chin has a small bit of stubble that creeps up his face and around his lip, however, he shaves it before it becomes too long.

When it comes to fashion Jackson isn't too fussed either on or off-stage. He prefers to where whatever makes him comfortable. This generally means he's wearing a short sleeve shirt and a pair of denim jeans, usually on the skinnier side yet not quite tight, and a pair of converse. He also wears an iron ring on the ring finger of his right hand. He will often wear a few snap bands up his arm or some random item of such. Generally his clothing choices are of more darker or natural tones and black is often a feature colour-wise,

Personality
Unlike his musical partner Jackson is more introverted and reserved. He isn't a huge fan of big parties and prefers to stay home and strum at his guitar or such. Although he is reserved he isn't exactly shy. He's not a bucketload of confidence but he has no problem approaching or talking to strangers. On occasions he can almost enjoy big crowds however they are only in certain circumstances. Jackson is very thoughtful of his actions and is careful to analyse the results and consequences instead of spontaneously plunging into an action headfirst.

Jackson is quite open minded and likes to hear from both sides of the story before coming to a judgement. He cares deeply for his friends and family and is very trusting. He is quite mature and responsible and doesn't often push the boundaries.

On stage, however, Jackson comes completely out of his shell. He enjoys the stage and performing and, when it comes to that time if it ever happens, he enjoys performing for large crowds and has troubles staying in one place when he's performing for them.

Music Career
Duet member

Role
Guitarist/occasional backing vocals

Inspiration
Dean Davis- Lead guitarist for rock band 'Final Hope'. Through so much he persisted and his guitar riffs are something Jackson still looks up to like a wide-eyed child

Group Segment

Group Name
Moon Over Water

Music Genre
Alternative

Members
Harper Cole- Vocals
Jackson Carter- Guitar/backing vocals

---

Likes/Advantages

• Guitar
• He is kind and very humble, fame won't change him
• He is very family/friend orientated
• Writing music

Dislikes/Disadvantages

• has trouble taking risks or trying new experiences
• Doesn't find it easy to push his ideas or thoughts or point of view
• Can be overcritical of others
• Strong distaste for chicken, he hates it
• Fear of free-falling

Background
Jackson was born to an American couple in Denmark as their first child of 3. His father, Michael, had acquired a job in Denmark only months before Jackson's birth which promised to be beneficial to his career so, with no plans to stay for too long, Michael and his wife, Pauline, who was 5 months pregnant at the time, moved overseas.

Jackson holds no memory of Denmark despite what he had been told or seen on recordings. His parents ran true on their promise and moved back to Florida, America when Jackson was 2, just before his mother fell pregnant with yet another child.

Throughout his childhood nothing too noteworthy arised. He was quite average student in school and wavered between interest with his group of friends until his 13th. His mother brought him an electric guitar and it quickly grew on Jackson. He would spend a his spare moments playing it.

At 15 his father's job dragged the family overseas to London. Leaving his life behind was tough on Jackson so that marked the point when he started songwriting. He still own a collection of his songs in a small black box, very few of them have been shown to anyone though.

When Jackson's 19th year was approaching his family moved back to America, however, Jackson had grown to love England and stayed behind. He started a teaching degree but fees were looming over him and his slowly lost interest so he bounced from job to job until he ended up at a pub where he met Harper Cole

@jaybreezy

Yeah, sorry...I've just been in the Hospital for 7 hours, so I couldn't put it in!

[Jeep Wrangler]

I officially have been discharged from the Marfan's Syndrome Investigation Department! WHOOOOOOOOP! However, I do have Marfan's Syndrome still XD

Now they've got to work on improving my actual muscles, if not put me in a temporary wheelchair for four years...Fun times!

I also have the list of songs that Problematic State will be making. Yes, a lot of them are Indeed our-time Muse songs, call me a prick and a lazy cunt for all you want, but I literally couldn't find anything more fitting. So...eh.

I hate to ask, but is it possible to get the Album's Cover for their insignia to make the C-Tab look a bit prettier?

[Aewin]

@LetMeDoStuff I don't know if you noticed but I updated Mia's CS since the last time. It probably got drowned in OOC, but I think @MissCapnCrunch also posted her CS right after mine.

@timelord1101I'll try and post tomorrow, but as a heads up, he's probably going to make it very short, before leaving in hopes he can get home. Someone, probably you and another, will intercept him as he walks home probably is what I imagine. RIP - Ted.

Anyway...You guys'll probably see him Tomorrow if you were to accept Jonathon's Invite to the Club Ted's performing at, making him the first to Perform live in the Roleplay, as well as his first major gig.

@LetMeDoStuff Gonna try and post up ASAP before yours though I have no plan what the post will contain. Just in case, would you mind if Mia walks up to Ted and Alex? @timelord1101
