## History

### Pre-Locked Rooms

Jelo was born in Echo Creek, Los Angeles on Dec. 19 1993. When he was at kindergarten, at 4, he met Rosewell, and they became friends. They entered the same high school and college. When he was bullied at school, Rosewell would stand up for him. When he was 12 he joined a camp named Camp Sherlite. At one time, he went up the camp bus and looked at the Comet Observatory with a telescope, but hit by a traffic sign in the back of his head. Luckily he was wearing a helmet.

In 2007, Jelo met Mario, Luigi, Peach and Daisy in a videogame convention, and asked for autographs. Then in 2009, Jelo met Phineas, Ferb, Baljeet, Buford and Isabella.

Jelo moved into his own house when he was 19. He then started decorating it. Later, he passed his driving test after 2 tries and bought a car. Two months later, two Fireside Girls who are selling cupcakes went to Jelo's house. Jelo bought the cupcakes. This was the first time he met members of the Fireside Girls (He did already knew Isabella before that). Later, he went to Danville, and met the Fireside Girls as a whole. For his 21st birthday, he got a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 with S Pen.

Some time in March 2015, Jelo started to see a racket (and monsters flinged around) from his neighbor's house. He then met Star Butterfly, a teen princess from another dimension. He also met Marco Diaz.

When he was 23, he heard of the Locked Room Challenge while he was camping. Jelo said, "That's impossible! A challenge full of cartoon universes? Well, I'd try it." Jelo went near the entrance of the Locked Rooms. However, a Wizard Zombie jumped out of nowhere and started shooting spells at the campers, turning a Sweet Potato into a Lighthouse Flower. Jelo then ran around like crazy, and was hit by the zombie's spell. The portal then suddenly activated when Jelo neared, and sucked Jelo in.

### The Portal Problem

When he heard of the new roleplaying series, The Portal Problem, he decided to join together with his fellow roster mates. Together with some other IaLR gang members, they also met characters from Heroes Through Time.

Jelo, together with his new gang (technically some are old, some are new), travelled to the first portal, an ocean-themed world when Bonk Choy carelessly walked through a portal which he thought was the exit.

Jelo was involved in fighting a giant octopus and Galaximus, before being rescued by a pirate group known as the Pirates of the Carribean, who then turn against the gang. This did not last long, as Galaximus found everyone and fought with the pirates, and that the gang used this chance to steal the pirate ship, much to Green Shadow's reluctance.

However, when he reached an island with the gang, the gang were captured for "trespassing Jeremiah's property". When the gang were brought in later to meet Jeremiah, he is recognised by Jeremiah as his half-brother. Thanks to this quick recognition, the gang were freed and shown to his giant hill paradise.

Jelo was then captured once again by the Pirates in nets, before being freed by the Infinity Cube's power of Green Shadow. He was then rescued by Orville the orca who brought back the pirate ship to sail their way out of this world.

More to be continued.

## Appearance

In his first appearance in the Hot Room, he was the letters "Jelo" in an orange background, a result of a curse. Some time later in the Cold Room, Jelo became a Papa Louie-style person. He then became a cartoonish-style person. He has messy hair, a brown jacket, brown shoes, a brown belt, blue pants and a light blue shirt. In his Flipline look, he had an aqua and black shirt, which he still keeps.

His current look now brings back his glasses. He now has brown sneakers, his pants now have more pockets and added seams, and he now wears a light blue polo shirt with a pocket. His watch was removed.

His real look is actually the cartoonish look. The Papa Louie one is actually a stage of the rehumanization, and the letters in an orange background are just a mere curse, which weared off after Season 1b.
