== Personality ==
Although he’s pretty easy to get along with, he has a natural instinct to take charge in all situations. This isn’t to say that he’ll brute force his way to the top, but rather that he does it without thinking. Jake believes that even if it’s a dog-eat-dog world where selfishness is sometimes necessary, you should never strive to be a bad person. Being a “good person” is being in a state of constantly making choices to benefit people other than yourself. All of that said, don’t overextend yourself. Keep a good balance of being selfish and helping other people.
After spending two years desperate to make people accept (and like him) in a close-knit community, Jake realizes his free handouts and passive demeanor only made people consider him desperate. Taking charge made the other residents respect him, and his natural ‘taking charge’ instincts quickly made others come to him for advice. He takes pride in this role, and doesn’t mind helping whenever possible (as long as he won’t over-extend himself in the process).
== Backstory ==
* born into an impoverished family and community
* although parents were both very loving, it was every week was a different set of circumstances that made ends hard to meet
* jake began working before the legal age, lying on resumes and accepting less than optimal conditions. this never discouraged him, as he’d do anything to help his family out. if anything he just learned to not give up on things
* grew older with an amazing academic career. he moved out on his own until he realized he still can’t support himself in such a busy city and he couldn’t ask his parents for help.
* he moved to a smaller community with less than 100 people living in it. everyone knew each other's names and everyone knew each other's grandparents.
* jake, desperate to fit in, began to overextend himself multiple times. this got him into debt and trouble, and the favors began to pile up over the course of a year.
* eventually, after a year and a half, jake realized he wasn’t fitting in any better and, in fact, people were just taking advantage of him as they realized he could
* he put his foot down and began to set limits, becoming more active in the community to set problems straight without him having to give up his time and efforts on a whim
* people began to look towards him for actual advice, and he became somewhat of a community leader
* although he just attends community college, he’s able to afford it with the help of the town. aww unrealistic <3 i don’t care
