Jacen Eirsith

5 years can do a lot to a guy... Jacen is a technology buff with control over electricity and ice. He prefers to use his tech prowess rather than his powers to handle things.

6'2, large frame. Often seen wearing casual clothing, favoring cargos and jeans along with button up shirts that vary in sleeve length. Has black hair that changes style often and wears a pair of black shades that act as a personal HUD. A darker shade of tanned skin contrasts his ice blue eyes, a trait of the Eirsiths. Has a tattoo on his right arm depicting a cross surrounded by a blue aura. When in combat, he often uses a tactical vest that allows him to carry his blade/SMG+utilities. He keeps his Eirsith Amulet around his neck, a cross over folded wings accented by a blue jewel in the middle.

Jacen's demeanor is that of a "just business" sort of guy. He has no issues cutting loose and cracking wise with friends...but when there's something to be done, he rarely has things that will hinder him from completing the task. Despite his slightly intimidating frame, Jacen is a nice guy and relatively soft spoken. He tries not to let his anger get the better of him, but will often react to ignorance and stupidity with deadpan remarks.
When it comes to work, anyone and anything can be fair game depending on the details of the job.

Jacen has the power of the Eirsith bloodline, which allows him to control ice and electricity. He keeps his powers under wraps, only using them for mundane purposes that wouldn't bring attention to himself in a society that's already split on magic users. He prefers to use his sword and a modular Sub-machine gun for missions that don't call for specialized equipment. His sword is charged with a high-frequency allowing it to cut almost anything, but can be even further enhanced by his electric power. His SMG can fire multiple types of 10MM ammunition, ranging from tracers to stun and tracking rounds. He customized all of his equipment, save for his sword...there are few people that could actually use his gear besides himself.
He'll carry little outside of spare magazines, opting to keep things as light as possible. He has a collection of firearms, but considers them situational.
Jacen is very skilled with his weapons, only thing he is not nearly an expert with is heavy ordnance. Rocket Launchers, turrets, and the like aren't his specialty.

Jacen grew up privileged to say the least. He stayed humble...making sure not to act like a rich kid. He lived like one however, as his father was head of a weapons and technology development firm with numerous military accounts, he was introduced to firearms and technology at a young age which would spark a lifelong fascination. After a number of issues with people in his town and high school, he grew very protective of his younger sister and closed off to most people during his teenage years. He was very flippant and standoffish.
After an incident involving a home invasion and use of his power, he was sent to Sorcerers in Japan where he reunited with an old friend and made new ones. In his time there, he grew more trusting of people but still realized he couldn't let things affect him as greatly as they did before. That was how the trouble started back home. After he had left, he had become a successful taskmaster of sorts...with the task usually being to take someone or something out of action or keep that from happening...while acting within the boundaries of the law, of course. Jacen realized that having a strict moral code only hindered his work and mentality...if it didn't get him executed or arrested, it was fine. He was a freelancer working contracts for corporate, military, and law enforcement. Even though he didn't really need the money, he hated sitting around...plus his father approved. Even though his family were by no means warmongers, they understood "do what you have to do." His father knew full well he created things that could kill as well as protect...Jacen decided to apply that thought to his work.
When not on a mission...Jacen simply tries to live as normal as he can.

Jacen's older, smarter...maybe not yet wiser. He's had changes in his dress, demeanor and profession since his TCD1 incarnation, and as you'll notice, Jacen comes off as the cyber soldier of sorts...multiple characters have influenced his design for TCD2. Facially, he's based on Aqualad from young justice, with notable differences for the body and facial details such as hair, eyes and build. Jacen's personality, fighting technique, and gear has been influenced by:
Raiden(Metal Gear Rising ver.)
JC Denton(Deus Ex)
Raven(Tekken)
Batou(Ghost in the Shell)
Michael Westen(Burn Notice)
Kazuya Mishima(Tekken)
Vanessa Lewis(Virtua Fighter)
Big Boss/Solid Snake(Metal Gear Solid)
Yeah, it's a lot of characters...but I feel like he has qualities of them all, with the last 3 being his main inspirations for Jacen's hand to hand combat style. A mixture of Armed Forces techniques, CQC, and a few "powered" moves inspired by Mishima style karate from the Tekken series.
Jacen's politically neutral...he's just here to make money and keep things as normal as he can.
