Stamina: Superhuman
Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee Range with sword
Standard Equipment: Sword
Intelligence: Above Average (Having graduated from Shade Academy, the most prestigious combat school in Vacuo, Jax is a relatively skilled Huntsman, though his combat skill is greatly overshadowed by his skill in psychological manipulation. Jax is an expert when it came to the art of manipulation, able to corrupt his sister into going along with his insane plans and he proving charismatic enough to easily convince the rest of his team as well as others that siding with him and forming the Crown would benefit Vacuo greatly someday.)
Weaknesses: Suicidally overconfident. Jax has a naturally extremely low amount of Aura. Continual damage to his Aura will cause it to decay to the point where he can be left open to more significant damage. Aura's durability is cumulative; it will deplete with each attack he takes and can be brought down by characters of similar strength. Semblances drain Aura by a small amount and without it they cannot be used until it is recharged. Constant exposure to extreme temperature can drain the user's Aura.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Mind Control: Jax's Semblance is that of Mind Control, allowing him to dominate the wills of others he makes physical contact with. This is typically achieved by telepathically influencing their minds in the form of pushing a subconscious suggestion to them. Jax is able to use his Semblance on multiple people at a time, with its effects lasting for extended periods of time, lasting from weeks to even months. When used on others, their Auras take on a nearly identical appearance to his own. However, due to his low Aura reserves, he relies on his sister's Semblance of Aura Siphon to make full use of his own.
