Clothing Style

De Jack always has a style that's a touch of professional, classy, mildly punk, and somewhat futuristic. He dresses himself sharply and moderately flashy, although he's not too extravagant. His favorite colors are black and red, yet he rarely takes off his blue goggles no matter what color scheme he's wearing. He does not like any type of gloves, and he prefers choker style necklaces over any other type. He most commonly wears a red choker with the gold wing symbol of Lord Dalia. In most cases no matter what outfit he's wearing, he usually wears his favorite pair of gray boots with red inserts and crossed laces in front.

While working at Emdrica Fly, his most common outfit is a black, collared, sleeveless jacket that only buttons on the top half and has trailing coattails with red tips. He wears a red sleeveless shirt underneath it, and the jacket has red trim where the buttons are and a red striped design on the lower left side. He also wears separate black sleeves with red cuffs and trim, along with red straps near the elbows that connect to black elbow pads.

Personality

De Jack is known across the Eternity as the helpful and smooth talking Zilvian agent of Lord Dalia, although he may be famous for various things depending on where you hear about him. The vast majority of the Eternity knows him as the guildmaster at Emdrica Fly who provides housing, support, and information to those who visit his establishment. Others who have the right connections may know him as the DJ of the dance club of the deities, Galaxia Soul. And many young rifters on Taliac just know him as the weird but cool band teacher for the Hateulots private school system. 

Regardless of where you meet him, Jack is always rather mellow and cool headed. He's very easy to approach and talk to, and he tends to have a calming presence. He can be a little playful or mildly teasing when he talks, but he's always down to earth and provides a willing ear and open mind to those who need it. Due to his many responsibilities and countless millennia of life experiences, he's very well organized, wise, and well networked. He feels best in social situations, although he works just as well on his own, and since he's seen basically everything over his long years, he rarely gets surprised anymore. However, he's not so jaded that things don't amuse him anymore, and he always manages to find ways to make his life feel fresh and new each day. Jack likes to keep himself busy and enjoys socializing, but he does tend to overwork himself since he theoretically could work without rest forever if he wanted to. He loves spending his time helping others and is very generous toward those who are in need, although he's smart enough to recognize when someone is just being lazy or fishing for unneeded handouts from him. Although he's almost always very calm and level headed, the few things that do make him angry can make him utterly terrifying. When angered he often can immediately intimidate everyone into submission, and his aura alone is enough to shatter all the glass in the area and disrupt frequencies, whether they be electric, sound, rifting, etc.

Jack has three versions of himself. The one that works at Emdrica Fly tends to be the most responsible and mature. He interacts with hundreds of people daily, and he's highly organized, social, and efficient with providing others the information and connections they require. He's respected by everyone in Emdrica, and although he doesn't endorse it his patrons tend to rough up people that disrespect him. However he doesn't give others much reason to dislike him, and he's only interested in doing what he can to make other people's lives easier. He will be open toward even those who have wronged him in the past or those he might not particularly like, since he tries his best not to be biased in who he provides his services to, although he will firmly refuse anyone if he senses they will use his help for malicious purposes. If any of the other Jacks are talking about this one, they will usually refer to him as “De Jack” or "Sir Zilvas."

The version that works at Hateulots private schools as a band teacher is very similar, yet he has more free time and is a little more loose and when off duty. He is just as personable and easy to talk to as his other self, yet he's more oriented to being very child friendly (not that any of his versions are vulgar in any sense) simply because he works at schools. Since he has more time to relax, he also tends to be a little more whimsical and silly, especially since he spends every day of work interacting with his best friend, Vahlent Ryfax, who is the principal and head of the district. The two have countless inside jokes and a very close relationship, both usually acting rather weird around each other when not busy with their jobs. This Jack is also much more energetic and somewhat ridiculous since he's on the move more often and runs most of the music program. He picks out and sometimes composes the music the student perform, and he also choreographs all the musical routines they do. If any of the other Jacks are talking about this one, they will usually refer to him as just "Jack," but sometimes they'll refer to him as "Mr. Zilvas" since he is a teacher, or DJ will teasingly call him "Band Jack."

The version that works at Galaxia Soul as a DJ comes off as the most wild and carefree. He seems a little irresponsible sometimes, but he takes his job very "seriously," although that job consists of handling the music and lights/effects and making sure people are having a great time at the club, so he's very high energy, mellow, and relaxed. He never seems to run out of energy and works constantly since the club never closes, so he's constantly in endless-party mode and very social and likes to live in the moment. The few times he leaves the club he tends to still be stuck in party mode, so expect him to be blasting music through his headphones and dancing as he does anything. If any of the other Jacks are talking about this one, they will usually refer to him as "DJ."

Backstory

Jack was created as a unique species, the Zilvian, meant as a refined prototype for immortal species. His creation and development proved to be successful, so Jack continued a relatively normal life with the members of Dalia's Court. Over the time that the Eternity was still being slowly crafted, Jack formed a close bond with an Eksel by the name of Vi, and the two frequently traveled the in-progress Eternity to see the new sights. The two witnessed the first casualty of the First War when Yashana's double tricked Vi's brother, Maradias, and stole the power shared with him by Lady Yashana. While trying to escape her and her allies, the Demriles, Jack lost his right hand and suffered a terrible injury to his eye, and Vi was slain trying to protect him. Jack barely managed to escape, and Lord Dalia granted him a new hand and eye, although the emptiness in his heart from Vi's absence lingered for generations after the First War ended.

Lord Dalia then created the only other Zilvian in existence to be Jack's son. Jack named him Insanity because Vi always thought it would be an interesting name. Jack serves as a helper and guide to anyone who seeks him out in Emdrica. With his vast knowledge from his long existence, his insight and connections are vital in combating the rising threat of the Enlightened. He works multiple jobs by having copies of himself, all of them sharing the same consciousness, and they regularly collaborate with each other to catch up on the experiences the others had during that time. His primary self works at Emdrica Fly where he serves drinks at the bar and also serves as a leader for a guild of workers and information collectors. On Taliac, he works as a band teacher at the school for the rifting community in Nebraska where he spends time with his lifelong best friend, Vahlent Ryfax, who is the principal of the schools. At the center of the Eternity he works as a DJ at Uriel and Razora's intergalactic dance club, Galaxia Soul.


Trivia:

  • De Jack's original concept was being the DJ to a popular dance club nearby the Hateulots community called SatNyte (a play on Saturday Night), and he was generally supposed to be a normal, if not somewhat quirky, person. He developed into something more complicated over time, but he is still technically a DJ in one rendition, except it's at a much grander and magical club at the center of the Eternity.
    • De Jack was simply picked so his first initials could be DJ.
  • His Soul Tune with Vi is "Epsilon Vey." Epsilon Vey basically translates to "E Zombie." Or e-zombie. Not something you want to receive over the internet.
    • Epsilon Vey is a song I made on a music maker software when I was in high school, and it was part of a "Test Run Series" of 6 songs created using the software's default sound samples provided. Epsilon Vey is 8:13 long and is the second longest song in the series, falling behind Delta Rah at 9:39. I would say that Epsilon Vey is my favorite out of the series.
    • If I could redo Epsilon Vey, I probably wouldn't change much except for adjusting the sound levels and quality, which I didn't know how to do when I was first using the music maker software. Numerous songs I made with this software have some sections of poor quality audio when too many samples are layered on top of each other at a loud volume, and Epsilon Vey unfortunately has reoccurring sections of this because I didn't know how to fix it or if it was even fixable.
    • Epsilon Vey is the most electronic/trance sounding of the series, which is most appropriate for De Jack's vibe. He especially is attributed to the middle section that starts about 4 minutes in, while Vi is mostly attributed to the starting and ending sections that include a whistling sample.
    • Out of his three versions, Epsilon Vey is most often associated with DJ.
  • His second Soul Tune that is loosely associated with Vi is "Alpha Om." The title is just a play on Alpha and Omega, and no it has nothing to do with Alpha/Omega relationships. It literally is a reference to the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, because the song is a remix of the first song in the "Test Run Series" and is the last song in the series.
    • The song is unofficially "the glitchy one" since it's supposed to start out the same as the first song in the series but bleed into a unique song before later bleeding into the original one again, like the song is an error stuck inside the first song. It features samples from "Test Run" and also "Epsilon Vey," notably the whistling sections, which is why it is also loosely associated with Vi. Alpha Om is very much Jack's vibe though, something of its own, but there's something a little off about it.
    • In reality, Alpha Om actually ended up being a real "glitchy" one, for the first time I exported it from the music maker software, it legitimately glitched and played the last two measures skipping in a weird way for the extent of the 6:49 playtime. I wish I had saved it, but I think I deleted it because it freaked me out.
    • Out of his three versions, Alpha Om is most often associated with De Jack.
  • His third Soul Tune is Psychopsis, and it is shared with Isaac. This is unsurprisingly since he and Isaac were created by Lord Dalia with the same "blueprint."
    • Out of his three versions, Psychopsis is most often associated with Jack.
  • De Jack ended up getting a lot of use when I was working on The Tale of a Hater the most consistently from middle school through high school. He appeared regularly since Neoka frequently returned to Emdrica and often asked for his advice. He also got a lot of use in various birthday stories I would write in which Neoka would go on stupid whirlwind adventures to help me find a birthday present for my friend.
    • De Jack was usually the one to give Neoka advice on how to proceed and also offer him the most practical advice regarding Neoka's sad love life.
  • He would say that he is no longer interested in romance or dabbling in dating anymore. Even though it has been trillions of years since Vi's death, Jack has chosen not to simply move on to other options and has instead decided he would rather remain single.
    • He does like to joke about shipping himself with Vahlent, and the two tend to throw OTP remarks at each other.
    • If asked if they ever "dabbled in a relationship" at any point during their long lives, Jack is usually more silly about answering and always gives vague remarks like "Hmmmmm maaaaaaaaaybe~" This leads most people to believe that they haven't.
    • They apparently have had some sort of relationship at some point in the past, but they seem to be fine with being friends right now. If ever confronted with this as fact, Jack will only remark that he still feels as though he hasn't moved on from his love for Vi, and he determined those feelings would only sabotage any other relationships he attempts to have. It is unclear if Vahlent shares this opinion.
    • DJ is apparently more "forward" of the three versions when it comes to speaking of his feelings toward Vahlent. DJ never gets to see Vahlent anymore since they are never in the same place, so he would have more reason to miss him. Or rather "miss us" as he would put it.
  • Jack's signature phrase is "Jyva dees?" It loosely translates to something along the lines of "Can I help you?" or "What do you need?"
    • Has definitely thrown a "Jyva deez nutz" joke at Vahlent on more than one occasion.
  • He usually manipulates his abilities and rifting by snapping his fingers. It's not necessary for him to do so, but it helps him channel his powers cleanly and in a focused manner. In his youth, he did actually have to snap in order to manipulate his abilities. Now it's just a habit.
    • If he really gets into a song, he will occasionally snap his fingers along to it, and he sometimes unintentionally manipulates things around him without realizing.
  • Tends to tap his fingers when thinking or while antsy.
  • Obviously enjoys music, and he also likes dancing a lot, but he doesn't really do much of it anymore. He states it feels somewhat hollow without his dance partner.
    • DJ is much more at ease with dancing since he constantly works with music. He's also more open to dancing with other people, particularly the other disk jockeys at Galaxia Soul, or Vahlent if he would ever visit.
  • Working at Emdrica Fly requires him to do a lot of research and look into a lot of matters, since people come to him for information more often than not. Fortunately he does legitimately like doing research and gathering information in general. Otherwise he wouldn't have started up the service in the first place.
  • Hates his cell phone and loathes getting calls on it. He only has one out of obligation to get text messages while on Taliac, but he hates having the thing around and is always getting nonsense calls on it all the time. He's likely to throw it immediately into the trash if it starts ringing, but it always comes back to him one way or another.
  • His anger is enough to shatter glass in the surrounding area, and he's gotten so used to it happening he usually starts snapping rapidly while angry just to counteract the effect and immediately reform any broken glass that is about to break.
  • Particularly hates Dracorluga Demrile because he killed Vi and cut off his right hand. Lord Dalia replaced the hand, but Jack still has the scar around his right wrist. Dracorluga was also the one who gave Jack the scar across his right eye, which is tattooed over in a stitch pattern to make it look less obviously a scar.
  • Vahlent will very very rarely nickname Jack, specifically De Jack, as “Zi.” It was a play on his name and Vi when the two would go everywhere together. It is very much an intimate term of endearment that Vahlent doesn’t use very often anymore.
  • Old Charahub blurb: "A highly revered servant of the Lord Dalia, he carries out his will by helping his Lord's creations however he can."
