Full Name: Jen’vekGender and Sexuality: Male, GayPronouns: He/Him/HisEthnicity/Species: Darkspear trollBirthplace and Birthdate: Darkspear Islands, August 12thGuilty Pleasures: Jen doesn’t really have guilty pleasures. Whatever he likes he embraces fully and openly, and he gives approximately -10 shits about what anyone thinks of him. That said, he does have an appreciation for plant life and flowers and would weave and unironically wear a flower crown in public or decorate Yavo and his saddle bags with flower chains. He also has a big appreciation for spoiling himself with long, scalding hot baths - which is really more of a guilty pleasure because he’s not one for lounging and relaxing. It rarely ever happens and when it does he loves to savour it until the water has gone completely cold.Phobias: He has claustrophoia. Being in a crowded town makes him feel on edge, small and enclosed rooms make him break into a cold sweat after a while, and he’d go into a full-blown panic if he’s in a confined, cramped space for more than a few minutes.What They Would Be Famous For: Well, in his current story (which takes place just before the Siege of Orgrimmar) he’s become a little bit infamous as being a member of the Darkspear Rebellion - something he’s been falsely accused of, but is and will give him a lot of attention. Mostly bad. But that’s still being famous, right? He also works in a merc company, and while he wouldn’t be famous among the common folk his name would certainly be spread around nastier groups looking to avoid getting caught.What They Would Get Arrested For: See above. Also he gets a bit rowdy when he’s had too many drinks and he’s had to sit and sulk in a cell overnight once or twice.OC You Ship Them With: IZKAR izkar IZKAR IzkarOC Most Likely To Murder Them: many. many people. Mostly ones he’s dealt with during his job.Favorite Movie/Book Genre: Hm, probably non-fiction. He’d love to read personal accounts of interesting peoples’ lives.Least Favorite Movie/Book Cliche: Characters being killed off for no reason other than it’s a cheap grab for drama.Talents and/or Powers: Jen is a fabulous survivalist and could go months on end in the wilderness if he had to. He’s also very handy and he can hunt, fish, and even do some woodcarving and beadwork. He’s also very skilled with handling animals and he’s got a wickedly sharp eye with his bow.Why Someone Might Love Them: Jen feels everything immensely and with great passion, and he wears his heart on his sleeve. He’s genuine, straightforward, and never one to lie or mislead. He’s endlessly enthusiastic and gung-ho about life, and he cares deeply about everyone who matters even a bit to him. He always gives people the benefit of the doubt when he first meets them, and he never takes stock in rumours or sterotypes and lets everyone get their fair chance to show him who they are.Why Someone Might Hate Them: Jen wears his heart on his sleeve, and so he makes no attempts to hide how he feels about a person. He believes in ‘brutal honesty’, and he doesn’t gently dance around a topic or tell little lies to make someone feel better. If he doesn’t look kindly on someone or what they did they will know it. He’s brusque, and you don’t make a lot of friends that way. He’s also very, very proud and it’s next to impossible to get him to change his mind on something he’s certain on.How They Change: He… actually has not had much of a chance to develop yet! I haven’t been actively RPing Jen for a long period of time. But I’m excited to see where it goes.Why You Love Them: I’m getting a chance to finally, properly flesh out Jen and I am SUPER pumped about it. I can’t exactly put my finger on what about him is so appealing. Maybe it’s because I appreciate characters with a lot of contrast, seeing how he’s a mercenary that’s done some nasty, nasty stuff but he’s also colourful and loves flowers and animals and his little sisters and brother. He’s someone that does not at all belong in his line of work but he continues with it anyways because he feels it’s the best thing to do to help support the people he loves the most.

But let’s see - right at his moment, story-wise, there’s really no one in particular! He does still terribly miss Dallas, but it’s more like a general pining than lust of any kind.

In Jen’s (admittedly very rose-tinted) eyes, Ken’zin is more or less the perfect example of a troll others ought to look up to. He’s strong, capable, provides as well as he can for his family and village, and is proud of his heritage - to name but a few traits. He aspires to be someone like him someday, or at least his idealized vision of him.
