Appearance: Jack is listed at a generous 5"10", 174 lbs. His build is athletic but without a lot of muscular definition. He has a head full of medium length, thick black hair that is commonly found bundled under his favourite Tennessee Titans baseball cap. Jack is Caucasian and has a slight tanned complexion. His eyes are a mossy shade of green, framed by a prominent nasal structure that gives his eyes a minor sunken look. His nose is, as mentioned, prominent. It has a sort of tapered form to it ending in a point. His nose combined with his sharp chin gives Jack a very hawk like look to his face. His face also features dark stubble which Jack keeps slightly more visible than a 5 o'clock shadow length. Jack's mouth is proportionate to the rest of his face while featuring two thin lips. Clothing wise, Jack is a jeans and hoodie guy, with a slight penchant for flannel and plaid shirts.

On the day of the abduction Jack was wearing a red short-sleeve collared flannel shirt with a plaid style print, white undershirt, a pair of light blue jeans, his favourite pair of black Adidas, and his forest-camo coloured Titans cap.

Biography: Jack has lived in Chattanooga his entire life. Ever since he was younger, he has felt a strong bond with the city. Being someone who was very much surrounded by city living, Jack became enraptured with the things you would expect that a Tennessee city-kid would. This is mostly due to the football fanfare and the bustling downtown core. With Jack's family living in the downtown core, his parents occupy professions you would expect of people living in those nice high-rise apartments.

Jack's father Paul is a marketing executive for Starbucks. Despite holding a very white-collar job, Paul is a down-to-earth family man who holds his wife and son to the highest priority of his life. Paul does his best to accommodate Jack financially in regards to Jack's interest, feeling a sense of pride in being involved in Jack's life; a feeling that was not felt by Paul with his own father. During Paul's 5th year at Starbucks, he met one of the new HR secretaries. This woman was the person that Paul would fall in love with and marry. While taking the time off to have and raise Jack, Rachel would eventually go back to work and is currently the assistant HR director for the Starbucks office in Chattanooga.

Rachel Johnson has a different outlook on parenting that sometimes leads to clashes with her husband. Rachel disagrees with Paul investing so much money into Jack's interests as outside of guitar and football, as the investments usually show no returns. The end result is Rachel often left feeling like the bad guy of the two parents. Jack's relationship with his parents is quite normal. Despite what he views as his mom being overprotective, he loves both of his parents equally and has made it a goal of his to make future whatever he does in the future will make the both of them proud.

In school, Jack excels in History, Home Economics, and English. History is his main passion, as the knowledge of how and why the nation developed. Home Economics was a class he originally took for an easy A but he soon found that he enjoyed the cooking aspect and this translated into his life outside of the classroom. In his free time at home he constantly in the kitchen with his mom experimenting with new dishes and attempting to perfect Johnson family staples. He is most proud of a spice blend he concocted for use as a dry-rub for chicken and beef. While he does love his cooking, it will always be just a hobby. When asked why he'd never want to make a career out of it, Jack's response has always been that he believes himself better suited as a football player or in education.

At the current time, Jack's future plans involve attending the University of Tennessee to study History, with a specialization in World War II studies. He's also hoping to earn a football scholarship to the school. His position is that of a Safety and while he does have the skills to earn the scholarship, the recruitment scouts have concerns that he may be undersized to deal with the overall size of players in the SEC Division. If a pro football contract doesn't materialize out of his playing, Jack's plan is to take his History degree and go one of two ways; go all the way scholastically and get a Ph.D. in History to become a professor, or stick with his bachelor's degree and become a high school History teacher, preferably while staying in the Chattanooga area.

Jack's main social group is comprised of his football friends and a few people that he's known since elementary school. Outside of his friends, socially speaking Jack is an acquired taste for most people. He has a social persona of being slightly brash and vulgar, which he uses in the majority of his attempts at humour. This has often led him to clash with people who are of a more sensitive disposition, and tends to find himself annoyed with people who take things too personally. As such, he tends to stick to people who can deal with his type of humour and avoids those whom he might engage in conflict with.

Jack also plays guitar for a local band called "Rule 34". The genre of music can best be described as pop-punk, with a sound similar to bands like Four Year Strong and Set Your Goals.

Advantages: Jack is naturally athletic and does have a durability factor in that he can take a decent amount of damage and fight through the pain. Through his experimentation with different herbs and plants in his cooking he has some basic recognition of edible wild plants and the like.
Disadvantages: As mentioned, with Jack having that acquired taste kind of personality, it could be difficult for him to find any allies if he doesn't find his friends.

Hello there! Before I let you on to the game, I'd like some expansion and changes on some points:


- I don’t believe Starbucks has a corporate office in Tennessee as far as I could find, and all of the higher ups in marketing work at the corporate headquarters in Seattle where Starbucks was created.

Since both parents work in the corporate field of a company, I can make some suggestions of companies that are actually in Chattanooga such as:

Chattanooga Whiskey Company
Unum, a Fortune 500 insurance company
Astec Industries, a machine industry company that manufactures equipment for asphalt road building, gas and water drilling and wood processing

- What are some of the interests that Paul has sunk money into for Jack and why does he give up on these activities?

- When and why did he start playing football? Why does he like football?

- When and why did he start playing guitar? Why does he like guitar?

- It seems like he really likes to cook. Maybe add that to the hobbies and interests list?

- Can you tell me a little bit about his early life (elementary school) and his middle school years? Has he always had this personality he has of being kind of brash and using harsh humor? Has this ever resulted in clashes with other students?

- How does he feel about his mother and father now that he’s a young man?

- If he’s had problems with people in the past it might be a disadvantage to him that he has a reputation for being insensitive or unpleasant.


That's it for now. Give me a shout when it needs another look.
