Jade's Backstory[]
Please remember that events described in this article are roleplay and acting. Actions done in-character do not reflect on the actual person portraying the character! |
Jade was born in Alaska on Feb 25th 1999, and is the youngest of three. His mother was a native Alaskan, and his father was born in Germany. His family lived off the land so at an early age jade learned how to forage, hunt, and fish. Though the winters were tough, and life was challenging at times, this helped to shape Jade into the man he is today. Jade is a natural hunter, excellent at identifying and determining flora types, and able to handle himself in nearly any survival situation, and has a very sharp eye that he trained from his time in Alaska.
Whenever Jade and his father would go hunting, he would ask about his dad's life in Germany. From what he learned, the lifestyle was vastly different, but also fascinating. He was told about the large city of Munich, and his father growing up with his uncle, and many other tales. Jade had been to a city before, it was nothing to the scale of which his father described. He was told that someday he and his father would go to Germany, see the sights and stay with his uncle for a visit.
When Jade was 19 his father died in a hunting accident. The death of his father shook jade to the core, he attempted to hide grief but to no avail. Jade’s father was his idol, he meant everything to him, he taught him all he knew and looked up to him. Everything he learned was from that man he was proud to call dad.
Eventually Jade made the decision to move to Munich Germany, the place where his father grew up to live with his Uncle. He wanted to learn what life was like for the man who raised him and taught him to be a man. While his uncle ended up being like a second father to Jade while not as great as his father, the fact he looked so much like him helped a lot. His uncle taught him German customs and language, though he still struggles speaking it, and mostly speaks his native tongue. This change of moving to a large city in Germany Immensely Intimidating for him as he had never been to a city this large. It took jade years to adjust to this new life of his.
Eventually Jade found peace of mind, doing his best in his new life but something was missing. He missed the company of friends and family. People who would stand by his side, good or bad, friends who he could joke and laugh with. He also missed working hard to achieve a good life, just how he needed to work hard to live a good life in the past, back home. That was when he stumbled upon a recruitment flier to join the Waifuwehr. The thought of joining tempted him, but also scared him. It was not the thought of risking his life that frightened him, it was the fear that he would not fit in, or maybe it was the possibility of screwing up. After much contemplation and finally plucking up the courage, then enlisted. This was a decision he did not regret.
Once Jade went through the training program, he was assigned into the Jäger battalion. He became known for being optimistic, eager, and overall Friendly, at the same time being a quiet speaker. When a day came to dispatch to a new location via Aircraft, he felt some kind of adrenaline. Watching the ground as it moved every second it reminded him of when he used to look down from the mountains back home. It took him some time before Jade finally requested to be transferred from the Jägers to the Luftwaffe and become a bomber.
Jade does not see the Waifuwehr as just soldiers but Family, and no one can change his mind.
