Description: Jethro is one of those guys who can walk into a room and everyone in it will know who he is- either by previous experience or just from whatever wacky thing he is about to do next. Bold and outgoing, he is the definition of the word extrovert, treating every new meeting and introduction as though it were the start of a life long friendship. He greets strangers the same way he greets long time friends- openly, with friendly gestures and the telling of wacky stories. Jethro is notorious for his wacky stories, that is for sure. He can come off as a little self-centered in that aspect- always rambling on about something he's done or something he plans to do in the near future, as though somehow fapping to himself. And, though he definitely is not lacking a certain amount of egotism... not lacking it in the least bit, he does this mostly as a means of starting conversation, as he is a very open, talkative furre who just loves to share all that he can with others.
Well, all that is sensible to share anyway.
When the stories run out or his voice goes hoarse from chattering too much, Jethro switches gears from telling stories to making new ones. Active and adventurous, when things become dull, you can always count on Jethro to liven things up. With no fear, no shame and very little dignity, he'll do almost anything for the sake of entertainment- a chronic partier with a love of the wild side. His favorite hobby in particular is surfing- tackling the highest, tallest and fastest waves, and always coming back for more no matter how many sharks snap at his board and no matter how many bones he breaks from wiping out. But he also loves crazy dances, crazy drinks, and crazy extreme sports such as sky diving and bungee jumping. There is simply nothing this guy won't try at least once and, even when he fails at it, he has a blast doing it.
This is probably Jethro's most admirable quality. He simply loves to live life, to test boundaries and take himself to new heights. He is fueled by excitement, lives to hear laughter, and builds himself up on the joy and entertainment of others.
On the flip side though, when a situation turns sour and you need someone to be serious and thoughtful, Jethro is not your guy. The joker in him never actually turns off, ever, and you can often find him making light of situations that are better left alone. He doesn't have the best judgment in the world and is notorious for refusing to shut up when he really definitely should, a habit that often gets him into trouble with the wrong people. But he just takes his beating on the chin with a grain of salt, sometimes planning revenge but usually never getting around to act on it. Though happy and jovial, he does have his lines to be crossed and does seem to have genuine dislike of some people, groups and personal habits. However, Jethro's idea of "dislike" is ridiculously mild, usually involving only an hour of pleasant conversation, rather than his usual 4 to 6 hour long ones. He might unfriend somebody on facebook or give them an insulting name in his cellphone contacts, but that is about the extent of it. As far as anger goes, Jeth's is terribly mild and fleeting, as though his brain is hardwired to have fun and feelings of anger or sadness are just momentary system glitches.
Likes:
- Parties, even those he is not invited to
- Flirting
- Being the center of attention
- Music of all sorts
- Dancing
- Energy drinks
- Computers
- The beach
- Swimming and surfing
Dislikes:
- School, generally
- Body mods (though he himself has very few)
- Tattoos and piercings
- Pain (and that's why- he's a wuss)
- People who make fun of his accent (he is Australian)
- Silence
- Boredom
- Homework
- Anything that cuts into his playtime
- Being alone (gets lonely very quickly)
Personal Quirks:
- Tends to make up random songs based on the conversation he's having.
As though he is made up of musical notes, Jethro loves to do anything with music- from playing instruments to editing and remixing, right up to flat out singing randomly during conversations. It helps that he has an excellent singing voice- very smooth and surprisingly void of his signature Aussie accent, so most furres that are subject to his sudden improvisations are normally pleasantly surprised rather than put off. Still, it's often weird. He's not terribly good at improv and even the most well-orchestrated songs cannot make sense when they are about "eggs on toast" or "wet paint benches" or something. Jethro is notorious for picking the weirdest and most random things to sing about in casual conversation. Also he makes up tunes about his friends names.- Australian Accent
As mentioned above, Jeth is Australian and has the stereotypical accent to go along with it, right out of a Crocodile Dundee movie. Some think he actually plays it up in conversation, as his singing voice often has little to no hint of the accent whatsoever. Furthermore, he's been in the states so long, you'd expect he'd have lost it by now. But he hasn't, finding that most women find it extremely charming. So he probably makes a serious attempt to keep it.
Mental Abnormalities: None, other than a ridiculous friendliness, need to be around others, and a great sense of humor. Which is abnormal to see all in one person usually.|------| HISTORICAL |------|
Date of Birth: May 22nd
Astrological Sign: Gemini
Backstory: Jethro had a largely uneventful and generally quite boring past. Born in Cessnock, New South Wales, Jethro was the last of five children. By the time he was old enough to talk and remember names, his two oldest siblings were on their way out to college. Short of a few family gatherings, which they would only sometimes attend, he never really knew his sister Keira or his brother Joseph terribly well. Instead, he grew up with his two nearest siblings- the twin boys Angus and Chris, whom are 4 years older than Jethro.
His parents were fine people- his father a large, imposing sabertooth tiger whom worked for the Australian government as something of a military police officer. He was a stern fellow, very authoritative and commanding, but also very protective of his children. He tried to ensure they got the best the world had to offer them, but they rarely shared his views. Bother Jet and his brothers were more fond of rolling in the mud and chasing pigs on nearby farms than they were interested in fancy clothes or private schooling. This led them to be at odds with their father, though Angus and Chris more so than Jethro. Jet was the third wheel on his brother's lean, mean, fun machine- mostly just following his older siblings like a lost puppy rather than acting on his own interests. His father, a smart and very wise old man, realized this and therefore spared Jethro most of his worst punishments.
Their mother- a rough and tumble dalmatian, was a farm girl by heart and nature but had resorted to working a desk job to pay the bills. She held all of the family's creativity and, because she was closest to her baby boy Jethro, she passed it lovingly onto him. Her favorite pasttime was painting landscapes and portraits of her children. Jethro still has one of her paintings hanging in his apartment- his dearest treasure. However, she also played the piano and was keen to make sure all of her children at least attempted to play an instrument at some point in their lives. Keira was the most successful at this- she went off to drop out of college and instead signed a contract with a production company, and is still a household name- a very popular and successful singer and song writer. Jethro, however, showed more interest at a very young age, especially in his mother's piano. From the moment he'd started to crawl, he was all over the thing- mashing the keys with his tiny hands and giggling with delight at the sound that it made. Once he was old enough, his mother was quick to teach him all that she could about the instrument and, for his 10th birthday, bought him a fancy keyboard of his own. His other most valued treasure.
When he was 12, he wrote his first song- especially for his mother, which he played for her on her birthday, to her tearful delight. But that would be his last chance to do something for her birthday. By the next year, she was dead- struck down by disease.
Jethro was obviously saddened by this, but moved on quickly enough, still able to confide in and enjoy the company of his brothers, whom never went through the period most brothers do where girls distract them from their siblings. The three remained close as could be until, at age 21, Angus and Chris got the chance to travel to Europe as part of a documentary film crew. They immediately jumped on the opportunity, and unfortunately never really returned to their family in Australia, finding Europe much more fun and exciting. They still call from time to time, but contact with them has pretty much been broken.
Taking his brother's lead, Jethro also jumped ship at 18, after being offered a scholarship in Audio Production at a famous school in the states, leaving his father to his job in Australia. Unfortunately, the school he'd traveled to was not all it was cracked up to be and, after two years there, he dropped out, transferring to the RAU here in Norbrook, to which most of his credits transferred. He was attracted by the club scene in the city, as well as its open opinion towards furres of obscure sexualities. Jethro is not gay, but his open nature can often be misread and he enjoys having the freedom to be gay if he wanted to. He spends most of his time and focus on his music career currently, rarely phoning his father and more determinedly searching for his sister Keira, whom has also ended up here in the states.|------| CURRENT |------|
Occupation: College student at RAU, part time Disc Jockey
Location: Suburbia, with his DJ jobs mostly coming from Downtown, which he travels to via the subway
Living Conditions: Jethro lives in one of the row houses on Faith Row in school-sponsored, off-campus housing. He currently does not have any roommates, but the house has three bedrooms (the largest of which he occupies) so he expects to have two more sooner rather than later. The house is spacious, with a circular arrangement to the living room, kitchen, dining room and laundry room on the ground floor. One bedroom is downstairs, just beyond the laundry room, while the other two are upstairs. The house is kept in a state of organized chaos- the space is functional, filled and cluttered, but still functional, featuring a large screen tv in the living room. There is a shed in the small backyard where Jethro has set up his sound studio for recording new mixes and things. There is also an attic where a fourth person may stay if guests need to sleep over.
