Name: Jasper Kassis
Aliases/Nickname: Sometimes Jazz depending on the person.
Gender: Male
Orientation: Pansexual
Age: 21
Birthday: 08/03
Occupation/Major: Working on an Associates degree in general studies while working part time as a masseur.
Year: Sophomore
Housing: Jasper had been commuting to his classes from home but decided after the first year that something closer was in order. He'd heard about some dorm suites opening up on the Spencer building and somehow finagled his way into one.

Height: 6'3”
Build: With a broad set of shoulders tapering into a narrow waist, Jasper's body type would certainly be described as a swimmer's build. A combination of body knowledge and vanity keeps him in shape, all lean muscle with just a hint of mass.
Skin Tone: Jasper's Arabic heritage is fairly obvious with his dusky caramel skintone.
Hair: A black with violet undertones coming to somewhere near the middle of his back, Jasper's thick hair is usually swept back into a low pony tail with just a hint of wave to it. He likes to keep his bangs relatively short, falling into his eyes but long enough so that he can run his fingers through it when he's feeling particularly dramatic.
Eyes: Jasper was named after the unusually vibrant shade of green eyes he was born with, the only one of his family of otherwise dark browns. His almond shaped eyes are usually aglow with an equal share of amusement and mischief.
Identifying Marks: A beauty mark under his left eye along with a simple white lotus blossom tattooed on his right hip.
Appearance: With only a slight preference for cool colors to warm, Jasper likes just about anything that looks good. And he makes everything look good. Somehow making fashion look casual, the brunette is most often seen in form fitting button ups, the sleeves generally rolled up around his forearms. Snug jeans or casual slacks are his usual go-to's, depending on the occasion of course. Jasper walks with the lazy confidence of someone as comfortable in his clothes as well as out of them, his hands usually half tucked in a pocket. He's all charming, playful smiles, a cupid's bow of a mouth offset by a strong jaw and a long tapered nose.

Family: The Kassis family lives just south of the Nappa Valley and though Jasper loves to come home to visit when he can, he moved to the campus to preserve his sanity They're a tight knit group and though they have their differences of opinions from time to time, family is the most important thing to them.

[*]Adeem Kassis: Father. A quiet man that dotes on his daughters and son as well as his grand children, Adeem is the head of the family and takes his responsibility seriously. He can seem a little distant at first but that's only because he has learned to listen between the lines and that generally you learn more about someone if you let them talk at their own pace. He and Jasper have a quiet sort of respect for each other though were never really close.
[/list]

  • Sharae Kassis: Mother. A mild mannered woman with a passion for cooking for her extended family, Sharae tends to treat everyone like they're part of her giant family. She's quite happy letting her husband take the rein, but the kitchen and the dining table are her domains. No one leaves the Kassis household without a full stomach and leftovers for the next day.
    [/list]

  • A'isha Kassis: Sister. Jasper always liked to joke that the eldest sibling acted more like her father than anyone else in the family. Quiet, watchful and slow to come to a decision, A'isha likes to be precise and well informed. Older than Jasper by five years, the two were never really close but never really had any major issues either. She puts up with Jasper's immature behavior with a sort of resigned grace and has found ignoring him to be the most effective route in dealing with him. She lives at the family home with her two girls, both still in diapers.
    [/list]

  • Dalia Kassis: Sister. The second oldest of the family, Dalia is four years older than Jasper and is easily the quietest. She is usually always stuck in a book and only ever puts it aside when her mother's food is involved or her father is speaking. She's currently attending college somewhere in the north part of the state and comes home on the weekends to do laundry and visit the family though she mostly just ignores everyone.
    [/list]

  • Yasmin Kassis: Sister. Younger than Jasper by six years, Yasmin is the youngest of the brood. She takes the most after her mother and is an aspiring chef. Yasmin is easily the family favorite, doted on by all. At first meeting, she's sweet and thoughtful and generous, but Jasper is often the only one that sees the little spitfire behind the mask. The only son and youngest daughter have always been close, Jasper and Sharae being her most staunchest supporters for her dream.
    [/list]

    Best Friends:

    • Ronney Appocada: Best Friend. A childhood friend that Jasper only really got to know during highschool, Ronney helped nurture Jasper's love for all things Disney. They two would often spend their free time on the couch half listening to a Disney film and gossiping or sharing fan theories. Ronney was the first person to help Jasper realize his orientation, and though the two were never attracted to each other, they would certainly drool over the same boys.

    Relationship Status: Single
    Significant Other(s): None
    Other Relationships: N/A

    Personality: Flirtatious almost to a fault, Jasper is all charming smiles and sensuality, oozing a magnetism and confidence that few can ignore. He can easily get carried away and sometimes doesn't always know when to quit, but he means no ill will by it and has a healthy respect for those that speak their mind. When he's not flirting his butt off, he can be rather gallant and respectful, making friends wherever he goes.
    Motivations: Jasper has always been one to seek out fun and excitement, to make the best of any situation. To flirt, to charm, to bring a smile or a surprised laugh to an unsuspecting stranger. These things are what make him happy, what drives him to put on his best smile every day and to enjoy life and all its unsuspecting turns.
    Goals: Right now, Jasper just wants to enjoy college life. After graduation, who knows?
    Best Quality: His determination to bring a smile to everyone he can.
    Worst Quality: Jasper's flirtatious charm can sometimes rub others the wrong way and a lack of an 'off' button only exacerbates such situations.
    Fears: Being the weak link in his family and leaving them vulnerable.
    Hobbies: Flirting is definitely Jasper's go-to activity, closely followed by shopping, dancing, working out and even yoga. He's an active person but enjoys staying at home and cuddling on the couch with a Disney movie or an old musical just as much. If pressed for something more serious, though, Jasper will admit to have developed a certain fondness for stitching, a hobby he picked up from mending all of his little sister's clothes.
    Talents/Skills: Some basic knowledge of cooking thanks to spending time with his mother and sister, and he's quite handy with a needle and thread.

    Special Abilities: Despite coming from a family of psionics, Jasper has no ability of his own. Only training with his siblings has helped to cultivate a defense, at least as powerful a one as a human can produce without any real ability.
    Limitations: Jasper might be a well-oiled machine, but he's still only human and just as susceptible to sickness and breakage as anyone else.
    Considerations: None.
    Backstory: Jasper's childhood was relatively mundane for someone of Arabic descent in a family full of psionics. Although his older sisters paid him no mind, he was quite happy to make friends with the other children of the neighborhood until his little sister came along and he found a new best friend. His father was somewhat distant when he was younger, preferring the company of his daughters but Jasper's mother more than made up for it, lavishing attention on her only son. It was only when Jasper was a teenager that his oldest sister explained the distance from their father. Although apparently he wasn't his father, his real lineage unknown and unspoken even to this day. Although his sisters might joke about 'the milkman' behind closed doors, Sharae's infidelity has never been mentioned, an unspoken truce in the Kassis household. After highschool, Jasper took a few years to do some traveling before coming back to Sunny California to work on his basics. After about a year of driving back and forth from home to class, he decided to make the move.
