## **History**

CJ Jenkins was born October 20, 2011 to witch Billie Jenkins and Supernatural Hunter; Charlie DeLuca at San Francisco Memorial Hospital, California. Like with his sister, he was given a Halliwell Wiccaning. After he was born, it was Hal that was the most happiest mostly because he had a younger brother/cousin in the family

## **Appearance**

CJ is a fairly handsome young man looking like the double of his father.

* **Hair:** CJ is known for having honey-blonde hair that he tends to gel and spike though the longer he grows his hair the darker his hair appears to be
* **Appearance:** In terms of appearance, CJ is a very attractive and short-stature young man with an athletic and lean build standing at 5'8" being only three inches taller than his older sister Christa. Due to his intense workout schedule, both out of love for lacrosse and an eagerness to help control his anger, CJ is quite muscular for his age, and he has honey-blond hair, tanned white skin, and blue eyes which he has inherited from his father.
* **Wardrobe:** CJ prefers wearing comfortable clothing such as hoodies, baseball shirts, jeans, and sneakers, though he has shown to wear more trendy clothing like leather jackets and boots. He also wears a black bracelet with a silver J on it for Jenkins, which he got from his mother, and he also wears a silver ring given to him by his father.

## **Personality**

CJ appears to be an outgoing and overconfident teenage boy, but it was quickly revealed that he is much more complicated and nuanced than he appeared at first glance. He demonstrated that he is also a very supportive and loyal friend to those who he truly cares about, such as his best friends Ben Turner, and Patrick Trudeau, and the rest of his family especially his sister Christa Jenkins. He's also shown that he is incredibly brave and quite intelligent despite being considered to be more brawny than brainy. He is also very protective over the people he loves and is willing to do what he can to protect the innocents.

However, despite all of these good personality traits, he does have a few bad ones, mainly his difficulty controlling his anger. CJ was diagnosed with intermittent explosive disorder, which causes him to be incredibly impulsive (which can lead to irrationality and poor judgment), as well as possessing a quick temper that causes him to be eager for a fight when angered. However his family and friends, in particular Ben have always been a strong influence over him and have helped him get better at controlling his temper.
