Character name: Jack Morrison Warbler username: @seventysix Power: Earth manipulation
Background: - Raised by both his parents to follow and trust in the system because that would keep him safe; followed their lead for a long time, even following in their footsteps as far as work (he's in agriculture, gotta love those farm boys).
- When he was much younger, was close to (and boyfriends with) Gabriel Reyes. When Gabe got thrown into the Quarry, Jack figured that he would never see him again. Instead, he got to watch Gabe use ruthless methods to come out the victor, and when he came back, he was never quite the same.
- Between this above mentioned incident and many years of watching as friends and acquaintances got sent to the Quarry to die, often times for crimes that they didn't even commit, Jack came to believe that his parents were wrong and had only ever been acting out of fear, and he realized that the system he lived in was inherently broken.
- By sharing these developing thoughts and feelings with others (but only those he trusted felt the same), he eventually got an in with the Kestrals, and has been supporting them ever since. Since he's been with the group for a while, he's learned a fair amount about subterfuge and covering his tracks, and his anger toward the ruling class has just simmered over time. He doesn't have any actual combat experience in this AU, but he's in good shape and has been practicing how to master his power of earth manipulation.
- It's possible that he's a mentor figure to some of the group's younger members, as he's one of the older people in its ranks, most likely. He has at least been kinda-sorta looking out for Cassian for a while as a psuedo-parental figure (though he would hesitate to call it that), since Cassian joined the organization at a rather young age. This could be the case for others!
- His Kestral tattoo is on his inner left forearm, but it's usually covered up.
