Not Drawn to Scale
Jupiter Black


   Age: 17


   Gender: Male


   Parents: Mercury Black and Garnet Zael


~~~~~


   Height & Weight: 6'4", 189lbs


   Body Type: Thin, though discretely muscular 


   Race: Human


~~~~~


   Weapon: Mal-Casters - Short for Malice Casters


   Weapon Description: A set of dual double-barrel, lever action shotgun-esque guns, both black and silver, that fire dust rounds. Despite their shotgun-esque appearance, they're more like rifles, firing shots with no spread. Like a cowboy from the movies, he simply flips the gun around his hand using the lever. Once a rifle runs out of ammo, he selects a type of dust and slides a cylinder into the barrel through the opening in the mechanism.


   Other Weapon Facts: The rifles can be used as melted weapons if someone gets too close, though there isn't anything special about them that permits the use of them in this way.

   Aura Color: Dark Grey/Steel, with black ends


   Semblance: Unknown


   Semblance Description: Mercury's main problem with his son is his lack of a semblance... He has one, no doubt, but he'd never found it. Cinder tried, but not even she could bring it out. Because of this, in his father's eyes, Jupiter was a failure. Just a... Another mistake.

   Relationship with Parents: Mercury was never really there for Jupiter... He'd made it quite clear that Jupiter was a mistake. That he'd never wanted a child. But Jupiter looked up to him anyways, constantly clinging to his side, and sometimes going as far as following him to work and meeting Cinder, who'd been almost like a second mother to him. A second mother who'd pushed him toward a life of crime and betrayal. But still, she was much more gentle towards him than any of his actual parents.


   History: As previously mentioned, Jupiter was a mistake, and he knew it. After the Fall of Beacon, Mercury stayed with Cinder out of fear, the fear of her having no need for him and killing him off, tying a loose end, so to speak. He kept doing dirty work for her, and ended up as her right hand man, working up the ranks, gaining a new scar for every mission they pulled off. He was practically a bullet sponge at that point. It took its toll on him... And then, he met her. Garnet. She was a guard for Atlas... They'd met when Mercury and Cinder did a organized attack on a Atlas outpost, and he'd gotten caught. It was love at first sight. They'd met behind Cinder's back at least weekly, until finally, they had a child. When a Cinder found out... She was not happy. But, she didn't kill the three, on one condition. She got to play a part in raising him. Garnet was in tears for an entire month... But, they agreed. And that was the start of Jupiter's parents' hate towards him. Too much stress. Mercury couldn't stand the little bastard by the time he was five, and that was when Cinder came into play. The rest, as they say, is history.


   Personality: Cold, manipulative, and suave, Jupiter is a real charmer. No sarcasm intended. He grew up with his father's good looks, and his mother's charming personality. A dangerous duo. Cinder's 'lessons' didn't help matters. She saw potential in him, and she drug it out, slowly and gently. Though, he has a soft side, just like Mercury. Its not always arson and murder, ya know. He's had his fair share of lovers, people he'd actually had feelings for. When he meets someone he likes... He's a shell of his former self, to say the least. His charm is gone, and his more obsessive, romantic side kicks in. It's a bad habit, but he can't shake it. It's a curse.

@Mollisol I went into a little more detail on the backstory, I hope that's okay!


And @Shirochankun, I involved Cinder quite a bit in Jupiter's backstory, I hope that's okay too!! It's up to you whether him and Ignis met, it's possible Cinder kept them apart. Can't wait to see the rest of your character!
