— BIOGRAPHY
TWs: bullying
Like most stories, Jasper’s life began with normalcy. Or that’s what he would like to believe of himself. Born to prominent one-percenters, Jasper never understood what love would look like in a home. His parent’s marriage was one of convenience, a melding of two families for political and monetary gain. He was born simply to be an heir, not to be a son. They were distant, his mother paying more attention to her collection of wine glasses and his father rarely home. It wasn’t that he wasn’t cared for, the money afforded his father to hire numerous nannies to make sure he was tended to. It was the life he knew, but it wasn’t satisfying.
Jasper had always been a meek person, never crying as a child and simply accepting what he was handed. Schooling as a young child was focused on getting the best of the best, primarily private schooling from age five to age thirteen. Eventually he knew he would be primed to take over the family business - managing the renowned high-end leather working business.
He made the switch from private to public school in high school, one of the only choices he fought for - simply to know other people. It was his first taste of the real world. It was also his first taste of what bullying could really be. He’d always been teased for his quiet nature, but in high school - his stutter had developed into more of a problem. Though he’d been through speech therapy, it didn’t help when he devolved into fits of anxiety - often talking too much, stammering, and getting stuck on certain sounds.
His nanny picked him up from school one afternoon after a particularly brutal day - one that had ended with him being beaten by classmates after school. He’d not said a word to them, simply allowing it to happen.
At home, he’d gone to his father for comfort only to be told that it was his own fault for not standing up for himself and not being a true Rovigatti man. This cycle never stopped. When he’d come home from school sporting a new black eye or smelling like actual garbage or soaking wet from the torture he endured - he was always berated for not doing something more.
He confided in the current nanny one night that he wanted to leave, that he didn’t want to be a Rovigatti anymore, through tears and hiccups. She saw the mistreatment of him and began to allow him to stay at her home, where she could care for him more like a mother might. He couldn’t stay forever, and he resolved to become emancipated as soon he was able - it took two years before it was finalized, finally leaving his family at age 16. Jasper Rovigatti was no longer, he chose the name of his nanny and moved in with her - Jasper Davis could finally be his own person.
He switched schools, and finally made his grades to be able to graduate - not with high honors, but enough to get him a job at a bookstore to help support himself and Ms. Davis and her wife.
College was never a dream of his, and with his new life in poverty - he didn’t even consider the idea of it. Instead, he resolved to do what he always wished he could: write. The first book he tried to get optioned for publishing was rejected over and over again, mostly because he didn’t have the right connections, the right hook, the right look. But he was determined. After all, there are now so many other avenues to get your stories out in the world.
Starting the podcast was a years long endeavor - the book had to be transformed into a script. He had to find voice actors willing to take minimal pay until they would get big (and he swore that they would, no matter how much it took from them.)
The first few teasers on YouTube and Spotify went under the radar, but the introductory one describing the actual setting of his dream work caught the attention of a few influencers on TikTok, and suddenly the City of Auris was starting to capture attention. The first episode went viral - though still not enough listeners to keep him afloat. They’ve been gaining an audience ever since, each episode bringing more and more in as the story thickens and the world expands.
When he saw the first fanart, he cried for two hours.
Now, he works diligently to write and produce the podcast as his only job, still living with Ms. Davis and her wife, the two women that he now affectionately calls his mothers. After all, Ms. Davis was the one who had truly raised him.
In the Rovigatti’s world, Jasper is unaware that his father is now in prison and his mother has accepted the help of an organization called The Syndicate.
— WANTED CONNECTIONS / PLOTS
CO-WORKERS; This would be anyone who works on the City of Auris podcast with him. Could be anything from audio engineers to voice actors to social media managers. It's still up and coming, but fairly popular!
FANS OF THE SHOW; Anyone who's been listening to City of Auris and wants to meet the brain behind it all. He might not be what they seem, but he keeps himself behind the scenes for a reason.
CLASSMATES; Either from private school or his stint in a public high school. He's still much the same person he's always been: quiet, anxious, stuttery. It grew worse in public school and those who knew him there would have either been witnesses to his bullying or perpetrators of it.
ROVIGATTI CONNECTION; These would be people who know of him through the Rovigattis or friends with them after his emancipation. Either way, there is no love lost between him and his birth parents so this would be a rather tense connection, as he doesn't trust it.
DAVIS CONNECTION; His mothers are the types of people to be very involved in the community. While Ms. Davis works as a nanny for the richest of the rich, her wife Ms. Martinez spends most of her time volunteering at homeless shelters and organizing mutual aid within their neighborhood. Whenever someone is in need, they always know to go to the Davis', who will provide a place to sleep and a warm meal. Jasper has met many people living with them for a few years, and is always happy to help those in need.
ROOMMATES (0/2); He lives in a two bedroom apartment with two other people. They've transformed the living room area into a studio where Jasper sleeps, and the small bedrooms are his roommates. They spend a lot of time revolving in and out of the space, but they don't spend a lot of time together or at home. The few times they do manage to meet and hang out, they're at his mothers' place for dinner and board games.
