PERSONALITY
Jono is somebody who expects greatness. Not only from himself, but from those whom he associates with. While the young man can be rather hot-headed from time to time, it is not the only noticeable trait he withholds. Jono has the capacity to show empathy. He certainly shows off his emotions - hell, he wears them on his sleeve. However, he is passionate, caring and even helpful to those whom he respects. Jono has a moral code and does not participate in mindless bloodshed. He shows absolutely no mercy to those on his sh!tlist.

Since the world ended, Jono has taken up a more 'Darwinist' approach to living his life. Only the strong could survive, regardless of how he personally felt. So Jono cannot be weak. Mentally and physically, he must remain strong. Though, in such a bleak world, it is only right that his outlook is bleak as well. The young man maintains his morals; Jono does not harm women or children. He does not kill at all without the intent of survival. Most importantly, he didn't choose the Scavenger life...

The Scavenger life chose him.

BACKGROUND

Jono always has and always will fight to survive. His father owned a dojo, so he was born into a lifestyle that revolved around self-defense. Without a mother and with a father that gave him very little attention, Jono was given freedom that most boys hadn't been granted. He took up smoking at a young age, just as he did drinking. However, the one thing he was devoted to was everlasting; his foundation.

The boy lived martial arts - it was all he did when he wasn't attending classes in high school. Jono did not specialize on one particular focus in self-defense. There had never been a man throughout the boy’s lifetime who had been able to successfully defeat him when it came to a street fight, where rules did not exist. However, Jono had lost plenty of tournament bouts throughout the years. He never did follow rules very well.

There wasn't much that the young man could do, though. His father had been quite ill since before the world ended - since before both he and Jono had ever joined the Scavengers. Medication was almost impossible to find, and once the old man was out it was well-known that he wouldn't have much time left. It had been a year and a few months after Jono had joined the Scavengers. Now at the age of twenty-six, Jono views survival in a much different light.

STRENGTHS/FLAWS

1. MMA: Years of experience both in unprofessional and professional settings have shaped Jono into a walking weapon. His fists and feet could probably be considered lethal. It's one thing to have the frame, but Jono has the finesse.
2. Physique: On point. The man is built. A physical specimen.
3. Real: Synonyms include genuine, authentic... You get the idea. Jono tells it how it is, he doesn't care who he is speaking to or who is offended by it. You don't like it? Leave.

1. Hot-headed: Stubborn, quick-tempered and ready to jump at anybody's throat for simply looking at him in a crooked way. Well, depending on who it is...
2. Smoker: Can't run very fast. Sometimes can be found coughing up a lung. For someone who fusses about surviving and puts his entire being into it, seems kinda ironic. Smells like tobacco as a result from time to time.
3. Egotistical: Jono; the man, the myth, the legend. Loud-mouthed because his sh!t don't stink, Jono believes that he is the greatest offering to mankind. Whether it be some sort of mental illness or pure unadulterated perseverance, Jono must always be the best.

SKILLS
