Age: 28

Gender: Male

Species: Pegasus

Appearance: Regular, little less bulky than soarin.<br /><br />Skin colored fur. Think of the fur color of the leftmost guy in this pic: http://www.ew.com/sites/default/files/styles/tout_image_612x380/public/i/2013/02/14/mlp-big-lebowski_510x317.jpg?itok=w-1IR1xT<br /><br />Oh, and, messy, spike hair that's windswept backwards. Kinda like soarin's but worse. It's blonde colored.<br /><br />Blue eyes.<br /><br />He wears a dark blue scarf.

Cutie Mark: An Ace of spades. It signifies his talent at being a jack of all trades, but a master at none. ( He's really good at everything, but not the best )

Personality: ( Most of his personality stems from his cutie mark. Later in his life, he realised that his cutie mark meant that he would never be the best at anything, no matter how hard he tries. )<br /><br />Sarcastic and laid back. Shows no passion or drive towards particularly anything. He has given up on his dreams.<br /><br />His sense of humor spreads all wide, from the most terrible pun to the darkest of jokes.<br /><br />He lives day to day counting the hours he's awake, looking for something to distract himself from his existential crisis.

Backstory: This is his summed up backstory. Long form in 'other'.<br /><br />Born in cloudsdale to 2 pegasi<br /><br />Foal: First to get his cutie mark in his class. On top of the world, topped every test and was the best at every sport. He believed his cutie mark meant he was the 'ace in the hole', aka the best at everything.<br /><br />Teen: As his cutie-marked peers began specialising in their respective talents, Jack slowly began questioning the meaning of his cutie mark. He began losing out to the proffesional team at hoofball. He now scored lower grades than that one asian pony. What was happening?<br /><br />He graduated with straight A's, while most his peers at A*'s in some subjects and a mixture of Bs and Cs and Es in others.<br /><br />Adult: He found himself unable to fit in anywhere. The weather factory found more skilled ponies to replace him. He couldn't cook a perfect risotto.<br /><br />He realised: his cutie mark didn't mean that we was an ace. He was a jack of all trades. But a master at none.<br /><br />In comes the existential crisis. He now works odd jobs, and is one company's designated filler, whenever a pony quit or left, he would take their place till they could find another worker.
