naive • sensitive • awkward
Jinx is a young Vespire with a bit of an unlucky start in life. On his hatchday, no one showed up to collect him at the Lucid Altar. He didn't mind much that he was orphaned however; even as a very young child he always liked to look at the positive side of things. He was raised in an orphanage in Banelaire, although he often would escape the stuffy atmosphere in there to explore the city and surrounding areas, much to his caretakers' annoyance. He quickly gained himself a reputation for being a troublemaker, and the older orphans he lived alongside often called him "a jinx" due to his constant escape attempts ending up accidentally getting others in trouble too. Although he knew they were trying to be hurtful, instead, Jinx embraced the nickname as his true name.
On one fateful day, one of Jinx's escapes led him to meet the three creatures that would become his pets, and the Vespire who would become his dearest friend. One of the creatures was injured and he rushed to get help, and was found by another young Vespire a year older than him named Adain. Adain's family ran a pet rescue and training center, and there they helped the creature, and over the years taught Jinx a lot about caring for and training Pippets.
Nowadays, Jinx is almost full-grown and is inseparable from both his Pippets and his friend Adain. He's counting down the days until he and Adain can leave the city and go on a big adventure together!
Everything will turn out just fine!

Fun Facts:
- Jinx isn't exactly unlucky all the time, but he does tend to find himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Despite being only a very minor offense troublemaker (only sneaking out from the orphanage, and hiding pippets in his room there, he swears!) he tends to get caught up in larger issues, where others who know of him find it easy to blame him. Adain, with his good standing in the community, often has to help clear Jinx's name.
- Jinx is somewhat of a runt, and is much smaller than most other Vespires his age. His wings especially remained tiny as he grew up, and his body grew only a little, but his tail grew very long and massive! Sometimes his caretakers would joke that all of his growth spurt went to his tail.
- As a result of his strange growth, Jinx has mastered the art of using his tail as if it were an extra limb. He often uses it for climbing, shepherding Pippets, holding extra supplies, and as a defensive weapon if needed.
Adain
[ Best Friend ]
Adain has been Jinx's best friend for a very long time. They practically grew up together and have been close friends since they were baby geodes. Jinx is a year younger than Adain, so he always would look up to him and aspire to be like him as they grew up. Over time, he has come to realize his feelings of admiration might not be as simple as he first thought. He is too afraid to admit anything though, and keeps his deeper feelings buried inside where he doesn't have to face them. He would never want to do anything to put the bond that they have in jeopardy, so of course he and Adain are just the best of friends, nothing more! Right?
