General Appearance: Cat has straight red hair that is normally tied up, piercing blue eyes and permanently wears a smirk. She started dyeing one strand of her hair blonde/white as a way to look a little more like her father. She is heavily freckled and has small scars all over from living on the street.
Personality: She's rough around the edges, making it difficult for her to make friends but once she has become friends with someone, she is endlessly loyal. She's clever. She doesn't talk much but she's extremely expressive.
Special Talents: She's a skilled pick-pocket. Fantastic at martial arts. She also prefers to use blades instead of guns like Jax does.
Who they like better: Jax
Who they take after more: Jason
Personal Head canon: Born on the streets, Cat had a tough life on her own. She was resourceful, quick and stole whatever she could get her hands on just to live. One day, she tried to steal from Jason Todd and on that same day; Jason took her in to help her out a little, while Jax immediately was fond of her and took her in as a daughter.
[ PATCH ] : for your muse to help mine with an injury
@artcmisz
Jax breathed in a sharp breath as he poured some alcohol over a cut on his bicep. “You’d probably end up with a lot less of these if you just switched over to guns instead of the scythe.” He murmured to himself. “But no! Close range weapons are so much cooler.” Mocking himself over the bathroom sink fell a little short when someone walked in there and he lifted his head to look at them. “Hey, don’t mind me. Just trying not to bleed to death.” He said with a smile, finding himself admiring her for a moment. Damn, she was kinda hot... Wait, was he in the wrong bathroom?
[ ROOFTOP ] : for your muse to find mine on a rooftop
@abracazachra
“Oh, hey there~” Jax said, shooting the man some finger-guns. If there was anything that Jax wasn’t expecting it was someone else on the rooftop of his apartment building. A please he usually went for a little bit of peace and quiet. Closing the door behind himself, he eyed the stranger up before sauntering towards them. “Guess I’m not the only one who comes up here to people-watch.” He said with a chuckle. It wasn’t the only reason Jax came up here. He came up every so often to think. Especially when he wasn’t taking some things well. He’d always been afraid of heights and yet he’d come up to the edge anyway. Like a moth to flame.
“Our would imply that your name is on the lease.” He retorted, features blank of any emotion. Jason didn’t care about the money or that Jax didn’t always carry his weight when it came to the rent. In all honesty, he would have become suspicious if he started to hold up his end. It was a nice apartment, nicer than he could have afforded before Bruce took him in. When they had been together, he hadn’t asked Jax to pay for anything, but things had changed since then. “Depends if you try to bring someone back in here or not.”
“You got me there,” He said, deciding to leave it with a small smile and a shrug of his shoulders. It was easier to act carefree than get into a financial conversation. Right now, they weren’t anything but roommates. It wasn’t like things had ever been labelled when it came to them either. When he’d first moved in it had been a rocky start. The two of them would bicker or full on get into physical fights (which Jax only ever won if he used his smoke manipulation, which he tried not to). Things took a turn when they got intimate. If he was honest, he sort of still missed the passion behind all of it. How heated it would get between them. Was that a little crazy? Probably. A devilish smile worked it’s way on Jax’s face. “That wouldn’t be because you’re jealous, would it?” He teased.
“You mean my apartment? Living, I guess.” Jason replied dryly, wanting no part in whatever game he was trying to play at 8am. Hiding his smirk, he walked into the kitchen quickly, ducking behind the doorframe to let his smile reach his lips before he forced it back again. Once he was composed, he made himself a coffee, trying to focus on that rather than his ex that sat in the living room. “Are you gonna start looking for your own place soon or do I have to evict you?” He asked, moving into the doorframe of the kitchen, leaning against it as he took of sip from his mug.
Jax shot him a smile at his answer. “I think you mean our... but I’ll let it slide for now.” He joked. He was well aware that Jason didn’t have to be as kind to him as he was. He did his best to make all of his payments but occasionally he just wouldn’t have the money on month and would have to make it up to him the next. He didn’t have to be this patient. Which really begged the question. Why was he? Did he actually enjoy his company? He knew Jason tried to make it seem like he didn’t but there were times he’d catch the occasional small smile or a quick glance his way. He had to wonder if they were friends. “Depends. How bad do you want me gone?”

@ofregrets
Sitting at their table with a glass in hand, he dabbed some of the blood on his face with a tissue. Only glancing up when he heard someone enter the room. Rather than explain the mess he was he joked, “Heya handsome. What's a guy like you doing in a place like this?” Well aware that his roommate wasn’t exactly fond of that kind of teasing. Since their drunken (on his own part at least) make out session, all Jax could think of was doing it again. Jason just didn’t seem the type to want to admit how fun things were between them.

[OC] Have you ever noticed that ( JAX STORM ) who’s connected to ( THE WAYNES ) looks a lot like ( JENSEN ACKLES )? But ( HE ) also go/goes by ( THE RED REAPER ). Having the ability to/of ( SMOKE MANIPULATION ) sure makes them a force to be reckoned with. Rumour has it they are ( 28 ) and is working as a ( MECHANIC ). (ooc; smo, she/her, mnt, 21+. )
specifics: the ability to control and create smoke.
limitation: jax cannot create smoke in spaces that do not have enough air, he can’t create or control smoke as well in rainy weather. he requires a small level of concentration so if he’s in immediate life threatening danger- he may not be able to control his abilities.
physical traits: when he uses a lot of his powers, his eyes will turn a pitch black.
backstory;
jax storm was born into a cult in bludhaven, his mother found out that if jax was not born a meta human- he would have been ‘sacrificed’ to the demon they worshiped in a ritual. as he started to reach the age of five, and hadn’t yet started showing signs of meta-human physiology: his mother took him and ran from the cult. successfully hiding with him in gotham city for years.
jax’s life was relatively normal for gotham standards. he went to school in the narrows. he got a little caught up in the petty crime of the narrows. his mother was struggling to pay the bills as a singer, so he figured he could help in some way. although his days of petty theft were short-lived when someone he’d pick-pocketed caught up to him and beat him senseless. saved by batman and robin during a patrol. he started to idolize them.
trying out the vigilante thing by himself had been difficult but he wasn’t about to let that stop him. jax stopped small crimes in his own neighbourhood. inspired by batman- but especially by robin. who looked to be a similar age to him. he was scrappy and his fighting skills weren’t all that great, but he made do. especially as his smoke manipulation started to manifest. needing to light things on fire at first to even use it. he started going by ‘smokescreen’. though that name wouldn’t stick.
his fun would abruptly come to an end on his 18th birthday, coming home to find his mother surrounded by a bunch of people he didn’t recognize. all of which, had a strange goth-like style. trying to fight them all off for her, things got rough. jax was overwhelmed and one of them even managed to grab him and give him a deep cut across the bridge of his nose. his mother put up a bit of a fight but eventually she was kidnapped.
knowing that the police were useless... jax rifled through his mother’s things for an answer. he found her diary, which mentioned the cult and was able to use the clues in there to find out where it was.
tracking down the cult a few years later, but without a plan. jax barged in on a mission to retrieve his mother. it was during this fight, one against many, that he ended up going against the one rule he’d set for himself. massacring nearly all of them out of anger. splattered with blood and hooded. he was referred to by one of them as the ‘red reaper’.
although he ended up saving his mother, she was traumatized by his display of anger. calling him evil and a ‘demon’. she refused to live with him any longer and casted him out on the street to make his own way.
now, jax lives in new york city as a mechanic. hoping to start over in a new place.
