[ Birth Name ] Jackson ( Jack ) Linon

[ Personality ] [ W.I.P. ]
➡Observant In his line of work he has to be able to notice even the smallest change in his dinos, less he wants to lose a hand but he's found that he can do the same with people and, while he may say nothing, he can very well know little snipets of information of people just by looking them over a moment.
➡Friendly/Flirtatious The way he comes off tends to be on the flirtatious side but he means nothing of it and is, more than likely, trying to coax someone into buying a dino off of him.
➡Passionate. He's very passionate about what he does and is able to talk to someone for a few hours straight about all the dinos he has-and has had- including their likes, dislikes and even estimated birthdates.
➡Prideful.Admittedly, he can be a bit prideful and get his ego wounded easily so he may do things out of spite, often getting him into trouble.
➡Determined.If he's decided on something, he can't be swayed, no matter the consequences. To him, the ends justify the means.
➡Disloyal. He has a hard time staying true to people, no matter the type of relationship and though he tries, he will sell someone out for anything he may need.

[ History ]
Ace grew up on the outskirts of Seattle with his mother and four other siblings. His father was a traveling merchant and would come by only in December, stay a day or two, and then head back off, often leaving his mother pregnant, again, and small gifts. Because Ace was the oldest he basically took the role of a traditional mother, caring for his siblings and making sure they stayed out of trouble and he did that by setting up games. While his mother worked in the garden, Ace would round up all his brothers and sisters and tell them that the first to find something of interest in the forrest could have a tab. Absolutely excited, they went off and Ace wandered about to make sure they stayed close to the city and didn't fall into a ditch. One day, the eldest of the girls came running back, out of breath and demanding Ace follow her to see what he found and upon discovery it was a small raptor, he sent everyone back home unsure of its nature. The raptor was stuck, its tail trapped between rocks and Ace let it be, heading back home. Still, he felt guilty leaving it there and soon, they all began to leave pieces of their dinner behind on their plates, saying they were full, so they could feed it to the raptor, which Ace named Darla. That went on for about a day or two until a strong storm came through at night and Ace knew Darla wouldn't make it if those rocks fell further onto her so he raced out, finding her trying to claw her way out of the hole. Without a second thought, he jumped in and tried to push the rocks off, then resorting to pressing his back against the wall and pushing with his legs and Darla kept clawing, eventually prying her tail out.
She ran off and Ace watched her leave, almost saddened that he wouldn't see her again but he felt it for the best. But on another day of play, the kids came running back to him with Darla in tow and Ace knew he had to keep her. His mother was furious at all her children, but especially Ace for having tried to tame a raptor but she gave into the idea when Darla and Ace were both old enough to hunt. Heading into Seattle, he'd stay in the library for hours on end reading about the few books they had on dinosaurs and his father would bring back pop ups solely about those and he ate them all, curling up next to Darla and reading aloud to her.
By the time he was 17, his father had decided to retire traveling and wanted to open up a shop. Everyone was keen on the idea, ready to be surrounded by neighbors and be more protected than out there but Ace knew he'd have to give up Darla. He fought against the idea and left, giving up his civilian identification card without a second thought to become a wanderer. While he didn't like the solitude at first, he learned to embrace it and found he liked the new, unpredictable way of life and wouldn't trade it for the world.

➡ Coffee. It's hard to come by and a hassle to make but he'd take the time to do it.
➡ Spring. The travel is easier and his dinos seem to play around more and enjoy themselves.
➡ Darla. His personal velociraptor-he can't imagine himself without her.
➡ Dinos. A given but he's been obsessed since childhood and knows just about everything there is to know about them.
➡ Mancala. Unfortunately, he never found enough marbles for it but he still tries to play it without all the pieces.
➡ Talking. He tends to travel alone but when he does meet with someone or they head in the same direction, he will not shut up. At all.
➡ Smoking. It's not a big addiction since he has to ration out his pack but it calms the nerves.
➡ Duck tape. It has saved his life more times than he can count what with his clothing getting ripped when he's training a new dino. In fact most of his pants are 85% duck tape.
➡ Sunglasses. He hasn't come across any that are intact but he keeps them all in case he ever finds one identical to them and can switch the lenses out.

[ Dislikes ]
➡ Rain. Its hard to walk on a muddy path and Darla freaks out.
➡ Not being able to tame a Dino. He grows frustrated and the only one he's never been able to tame is Martha.
➡ Strong, sweet odors. It gives him a headache so he tends to stay away from those or at least cover his nose.
➡ Having more than five dinos at a time. He'd like to have more but Darla can only be the alpha to just a few before her confidence dwindles.
➡ Sour foods. He can't stand them and his jaw aches something awful.
➡ Scarring. It means he has to go and cover it up with a tattoo-he's a bit vain in that sense.

[ Extra Information ]
➡ Every tattoo he has is for the sole purpose of covering a scar.
➡ He duck tapes everything because he never learned how to sew and coming across someone who can patch his clothes up for him is a real treat.
➡ He loves orange juice but has never had any fresh squeezed and it's a small dream of his to head down to Florida.
➡ Blankets. They're perfect for him and his dinos during the cold seasons.
➡ He is, however, a sucker for lollipops-particularly the red flavors ( cherry, strawberry, etc. )

[ Relationships ]
Atlas l Acquaintance l "I sold him Martha a while back-she wasn't tamed and quite the little troublemaker but he was hell bent on her so hope he's doing well with her. Really mean 'ol guy, but pays well so I can't really complain. "
