History with The Saints: The jones family have been Saints since the 90s. Mechanics, getaway drivers, runners. In later years, the Jones helped with modifying weapons, too. Andy Jones still owns the auto shop where Jackson has worked with his brother and been with the saints since their teens.
What They’re Known For: Jackson doesn't have a straight forward reputation. Some people know him as easy going, and others would describe him as volatile and confrontational. But everyone agrees that he's a decent mechanic, and it's rare for any of the vehicles he works on to ever cause problems for a job. One of Jackson's main roles is as a getaway driver.
Strengths: Jackson is a skilled (chaotic) driver with a knack for being able to boost things, fix things up and also improve them. He's detail orientated which seems to contradict his otherwise chaotic personality. He might pull up with sirens blaring behind him, shouting at you to get in, but he weirdly as it all under control.
Weaknesses: Jackson prefers to be "right" than to resolve anything. He's quick to deflect most things, and he's also quick to confront things he doesn't like. He's not the easiest person to get along with, but he also is honest and loyal. So there's that.
What Keeps Them Up at Night, If Anything?: Jackson doesn't regret much and it's impossible for him to feel remorse. There's a part of him that enjoys this life, the fast pace and the unpredictable nature. The other part of him wishes he could have made something more of himself, and also lead a better example for his brother and sister.
How Do They Handle Conflict?: Jackson is usually confrontational. However, he isn't always aggressive but he calls shit out and he won't back down. His more volatile nature comes out when the stakes are higher, or if the situation calls for it.
HISTORY
Current Situation: Jones' are reworking vehicles vehicles and switching up their methods to see if whoever is targeting jones-modded vehicles know exactly what they're looking for.
Strengths: JJ has a strong work ethic, and he is always willing to do whatever is needed. His upbringing as a Jones means he often stands up for injustices and is willing to fight for what he believes is right. He has an understanding nature which allows him to mediate and be a voice of reason.
Weaknesses: JJ still has a lot to learn in terms of what it means to be a Beta and responsible. His hasty and impulsive nature causes him to act fast and think later. He makes hurried decisions but with passion and confidence that might be misjudged. He's stubborn to a fault and it takes a lot to change his mind.
Philosophy/Worldview: JJ tries to view the world with the same fair mindset as his father, Ethan but sometimes JJ can be distrusting and doesn't always believe people deserve a second chance. He's a lot stricter on the limits between deserving and undeserving and he views many supernaturals, even other wolves through a lens of slight suspicion.
HISTORY
Backstory: JJ was born and raised on Blue River Ranch in the Jones pack where he was taught the values that his family carried for generations. Jackson was raised to be hard working, fair and accepting of others, particularly lone wolves that his family would welcome into the pack. Despite this, JJ still had a slight distrust for other supernaturals that weren't his family and it's a trait that's just a part of him instead of anything he's been taught. He was always a little harder on wolves welcomed in than his father told him to be.
Ava, his mother, died when JJ's twin sisters were born and JJ can't fault the life and childhood that Ethan provided for them following her death. JJ tries hard to embody his father's traits and teachings, but sometimes falls short on truly believing in them.
As JJ grew older and was trusted to become Beta, he tried to channel his responsible nature to the forefront of his thinking. He joined his father on trips to New York, helping to assess wolves they might welcome into the Jones pack.
Secrets and Mysteries: JJ's loyalty to his family and his natural distrust of others has meant that he has always been vocal against certain wolves from joining the pack. Some of these have been for small reasons, such as he just sensed something off about them. Ethan would always end up vetoing his decision which made JJ turn to more calculated approaches, such as striking off names from mentor lists at Asphodel and turning the wolves away before they even had a chance to meet Ethan or for his father to even know they were potential new pack members.
JJ stopped doing this after he learned that a wolf he struck off was later hunted and killed. The decision haunts him, and he doesn't have the strength to own up to revealing this to any of his family.
Current Situation: JJ was in New York with his father to assess wolves at the Institute when the rift open. At first, JJ demanded they returned home but soon witnessed the severity of the situation and supported Ethan's decision to stay and help.
JJ is slightly reluctant to get too involved in the politics and the true nature of the veil, but his protective instincts have flared and he's taking his duty seriously to help where he can.
CONNECTIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS
Allies: Asphodel members he's known over the years, maybe someone who has helped him take off wolves names from assessments / they could have shared similar distrustful natures as JJ.
Rivals/Enemies: Wolves who feel wronged by JJ's distrustful nature or exclusionary actions, particularly those he turned away without reason.
Important Relationships: Ethan, Tammie, Nora and other pack members and wolves/other spns he knows well from Asphodel.
Potential Story Hooks: People linked/connected to the wolf JJ turned away and was later killed. They could not know JJ's involvement, or they could. JJ will be more hands on in protecting people during the veil mysteries, so something dangerous could happen lol JJ could get dragged into politics that he doesn't want to get involved in but becomes too deeply involved.
