The Hunter Name: Jeremy "Jerry" Collins Nicknames: Jerry, Mr. Collins, Mouse, Z4, Zeta IV, Punching Bag, Jerr-Bear, Jerky, Boomer, Cosmo Gender: Male Age: 26 Category Sun
Personality: Jerry is a forced optimist, always looking on the bright-side of things to an annoying degree. When he feels out of his depth, he tends to retreat to his "Happy place", which often involves closing his eyes and wobbling in place and humming to himself. A compulsive whistler/singer/hummer. Also has a habit of fainting at inconvenient times. He doesn't think of himself as a coward, but his instinct in regards to trouble thinks differently.
Why did your human character choose to become a Hunter? Jerry just wanted to live a normal life. The Shadows had other ideas. It's hard for a young new elementary school music teacher to keep their job when they're having panic attacks and throwing chairs in the classroom. And so he embarks on a new adventure. He hopes as a hunter he will learn to get control over his anxiety attacks and become the braver man by conquering his fear. (Solo link)

About a gun...
The Weapon Name: Roarshack Nicknames: Roary, Roar, Rawr Type of Weapon: Bazooka Former species of weapon: Howler (Ala D&D - Monster) Gender: Male Personality: Loud mouthed and much easier to anger than Jerry, Roar is always keen to speak it's mind on a situation, often rudely in ways that makes Jerry blush. Takes the form of a small penny whistle when desummoned. May or may not have a friend/packmember from long-ago named Nighthowl. Hasn't heard anything about or from him in years and years. Weapon Ability General: Sonic blasts Powered up: Howling blast- charged with fear, the usual sonic blast that emanates from the "Bazooka" when fired increases exponentially.
Possessions: Unfortunately, Jerry's recruitment came to pass when he was not in the best frame of mind. He was, in fact, a bit sauced. Hurriedly stuffing a satchel full of what he deemed important at the time, he brought with him as well as the clothes on his back for this island adventure:
Two Sweater Vests Hand knit by grandma, more than likely.
A Hawaiian shirt Useful on an island or if there were any parties, right?
An Assortment of Ties of Questionable Taste He was drunk, okay? He doesn't even like wearing ties, usually.
This Poster It is a collector's item, you know. It hangs proudly as the only decoration in the room.
A Sandwich During his time in The Pod, it has unfortunately gone moldy. Has been disposed of, but it was packed all the same.
As of yet, nothing has been confiscated.
Additional possessions- Christmas 2011:
Decanter of Blanton's Gold bourbon- from Dr H Drank A bag of Kazoos, a tambourine - from Deryk One kazoo remains, the rest given out or destroyed Piano Scores for Showtunes - from Reine Destroyed ipod shuffle - from Tedan Destroyed Acoustic Guitar,a few new vests and ties, & Red Mushroom desk lamp - from Candace Destroyed Stack of show-tune CDs, Diskman, & Join custody with Robert of karaoke machine - from Petra Destroyed More CDs, and a lovely sweater - From Jordan destroyed Harmonica (C) - from Harrison ScarAway medical sheets - From Robert Used Up
Phoenix: Team Phoenix bonded during their initial trials. They are a mix of Alpha and Zeta, and some of Jerry's closest friends.
Petra: A fellow Zeta, Jerry still harbors romantic feelings for her. He's never quite sure where he stands with her, but he knows she likes him. Unfortunately, she's engaged to Robert.
Robert: A thick headed bully and a brute and a waste of talent. Even so, Jerry considers him one of his best friends here at Deus.
Jordan: Ever since "Alpha One" allowed the nervous, faint-prone Zeta to find refuge and protection in the Phoenix alliance, Jerry has viewed the young man with utmost respect. A fellow Sun Hunter now, Jordan is another one of Jerry's dearest friends.
Madison: A very pretty young lady who reminds Jerry of all those girls he had crushes on in highschool and gazed at fondly from the ventilation cracks in the lockers he had been shoved into. She seems like a good sort, though!
Ennea: Jerry's singing partner during much of the traveling that went on during their initial "Gasmask" trial adventure, he views her like a little sister.
Reine: Well, he supposed the new scars from their spar on his chest and chin make up for the fact he beat her senseless during their Trials. The newest awaken Phoenix, who Jerry is both fond of and wary of.
Killer Unicorns: Jerry's top-pick team for external missions where only a small group is enough. First bonded and fought in the Haunted House mission
Candace: The current love of Jerry's life. He adores her, and is still baffled why she adores him, but apparently they're in a RELATIONSHIP and everything, oh my goodness!
Harrison: A dear friend and moon-hunter, Harrison is an ok-sort of young man with questionable taste in color choices. He is Jerry's top-pick for any Sun/Moon partner type missions, and trusts the ex-cop with his life... literally.
Other:
Dr H: A funny sort of man, but a good mentor, Jerry feels! Little does he know The Doctor and Candace have been... playing around... behind his back.
Killzone: His pseudo "Therapist" here at Deus. KZ knows how to get the ********' job done and help Jerry find his ********' Jerry Place.
Caelius: Jerry is sure he means the best! It must be hard being a Hunter for so long, and doesn't take Cael's crabbiness personally.
Jude: A great sparring partner, although both need to learn when to pull the reigns in!
Leon: A fellow Zeta who still holds bitter grudges about the formation of Phoenix. Called both Jerry and Petra "traitors" for teaming up with Alpha. While things seem to have calmed down from Leon's first awakening, Jerry is still wary.
Cass: She likes to sing! Always a plus! Possible recruit for Jerry's eventual Choir?
Scar Talley: Because I'm a glutton for punishment - Keeping track of Jerry's scars. Obtained usually when his HP is lower than -5.
Burn scars on cheek, neck, and back: From Red's out of control fire, he "died" saving Candace from the monster's blast.
Slice scars across chest and chin: From a spar with Reine that went a bit awry Bite mark scars along arms and sides: Those Christmas Present swarms were like PIRANHA.
Jerry's Opus Collection of songs Jerry has written during his time as a hunter The Candace Song: A work in progress
The world has really gone to s**t, Shadows, monsters, loss of whit And its all we do to deal with it.
Drowning, frowning, suffocate, All those things we really hate, All this madness drives us sour, And yet even in my darkest hour, waste deep in carnage there's still a flower...
That little touch that brings life class, relieves the terror, keeps me sane, I'll shout that name, Again, again! Candaaaace~ Never candy, though it's handy, only Candace! -unfinished-
The Jerry Song: As requested by Killzone
I... Almost killed my friiiiend the other daay I didn't think that was okaaay... So I bucked up the courage to come heere And it was all a little queeeer...
Bullied since I was three! They thought I was crazy! What's wrong with me? So they'd lock me in the closet! Like a safe deposit and- I DON'T WANT TO BE AFRAID OF THE DARK RIP THEM ALL TO SHREDS, WITH A MIGHTY BARK I sometimes still imagine the things I'd do To all those wretched brutes who would torment me through and through Like cut off their fingers and feed them to rats Or fill their chest cavities with angry cats-
But that's not socially acceptable~
And so I do my own thing. I close my eyes and smile and sing!
I DON'T WANT TO BE AFRAID OF THE DARK RIP THEM ALL TO SHREDS, WITH A MIGHTY BARK And this would be a lot easier if Roar would stop feeding me lines in the back of my head but I'll stomp 'em all down and make them dead!
The Sun Hunter Theme: As requested by no one There are demons in the shadows Who creep and kill and fright- We'll bring those monsters to the gallows but they will put up a big fight....!
WATCHOUT! Here we come! WATCHOUT! Here comes the Sun!
They might burn us, They might bite us, They might curse and scratch and claw! But we won't stop, we won't rest Until we've gone and killed them all!
WATCHOUT! HERE WE COME! WATCHOUT! Here comes the sun!
When a Moony is in trouble, horrid creatures in the way- A Sunny comes a'running, guns a'blaze to save the day!
WATCHOUT! HERE WE COME! WATCHOUT! Here comes the sun!
But when the two eclipse, it's as good as any kiss, A power team of sky lights Overtaking all the fiiiiiights-!
WATCH OUT! HERE THEY COME! WATCH OUT! MOON AND SUN!
((insert badly practiced guitar solo))
Candy on the Beach A little bit of Candy can do. It's a little sandy, it's cool Drink a little brandy, with you, Cause my darling Candy can do.
It helps not to be Rep
You gotta' be kind, you gotta' be loving, You gotta care, and share, and be there, You gotta' know when not to be shoving. But of course the most important step... It helps not to be Rep.
You can hide your woes in misery, but you'll just drive them all away. You can curse and spit all gingery, But that's not what'll make 'em stay~
Remember this important step: It helps not to be Rep.
Sasha's Song The sunlight glinting in your hair, the wind that blows it here and there, the subtle blush between it's seasons, these are not the reasons-
The subtle flash of crystal blue, that gentle way of those things you do, those moments you show attitude This is not why I conclude-
It's difficult to articulate Those moments when I hesitate, But it's alright when my brain is puttering, when I'm not the only one who's stuttering and
I think I love you.
The way you smile, the way you laugh, the way you're there within a flash, When I feel like I should basket weave you're there to constantly believe we'll be alright and
