Street trash who does what he can in order to survive. Jack is rather mischievous, intelligent, and an all around sharp witted troublemaker. Reads and writes surprisingly well despite his lack of formal education. It is uncanny how legible his penmanship is. He made a habit of listening in when lessons were being provided by the crazy local Wallists temple. They provide free lessons, so he would leave the small orphanage and spend time learning. Has a lot of street smarts, and doesn't mind being rude or crass in order to make his point. Acts more like he's 6'0 then just shy of 5'0 nothing. The guy has a lot of spirit, and can be a bit of a handful at times.
History:
His family was killed during an outbreak of a sickness that struck a variety of people, killing many. Raised in an orphanage from the age of 3, he remembers nothing of his poor family. The small non-Wallist funded orphanage took care of him until about two summers ago when they had to close down and relocate to another district altogether. Instead of going with the group of housed children, at the age of 10, Jack decided to dip out and stay in Shiganshina. He found he didn't want to go to Trost and be integrated into a traditional Wallist orphanage. Generally is raggedly dressed, and doesn't have very many worldly possessions.
Living on the streets of Shiganshina, he eventually ran into a street brat named Preacher, and after a failed attempt at trying to steel food off of him, was brought back to Tinker. This happenstance ultimately resulted in his staying with the gang. During this time he befriended not only Preacher, but the man referred to as Dollface. Both were known for looking out for the younger members, and Jack was no exception.
Not too much later, he would become a full fledged member of Tinker's gang. A street group comprised of mostly children Tinker has managed to acquire, they are mostly known for broad daylight-type stealing. Like pickpocketing (the liftin' lay) and the snatch and grab (when one kid barrels into someone roughly, then another picks themark up, dusts him off and pickpockets the goods). Jack was still relatively new to the gang, and had been taught by Preacher how better to steal before the shuffle and her fleeing the group.
After Dollface was sold off, Tinker began threatening the kids if they don't bring in enough goods he'll sell them too. In his panic, and hunger gnawing at his stomach Jack over stepped his means. He was caught stealing from a Garrison solider, and was given a choice, to go to jail or enlist. Jack choose the military, not wanting to rot in prison. In a moment of desperation he forgot one of the golden rules in not stealing from a solider.
