Jack

Jack is a main character of the show. He debuts in the second episode, Punk Kid.

## Personality and Appearance

* He is a living jack o' latern. His name, Jack, probably comes from this fact. However, he somehow has blood inside his body and a brain too, as it revealed whenever he dies in the series.
* He is an orange round pumpkin with carved yellow and grey eyes, a small carved nose in a shape of a triangle and a carved mouth in a classic "jack o' latern" style. He doesn't possess hands or feet. As a result, he grabs things (like his paintbrush) with his mouth and walks by jumping with his whole body.
* He often wears a blue beret, especially when he paints. Sometimes, he doesn't where anything at all.
* Not much are known for his personality, but he seems a generally good person, despite his "spooky" nature as a Halloween latern.
	+ Some of his classic "spooky" elements are his own nature (jack o' latern), he lives in a castle and the song *Toccata & Fugue in D Minor* by *Bach* is played in his debut episode.
* He loves painting extremely much. In *Punk Kid* he doesn't escape from the flaming castle just to save his work, ending up to his death.
* He is based on the Peggle character "Renfield" who has the exact same appearance and personality, even the same beret. But most importantly, Renfield and Jack both loves painting as it is revealed in *Peggle Nights*. Theoretically, only their names are different.
	+ Even the musical piece *Toccata & Fugue in D Minor* is both heard in Renfield's power activation and Jack's debut scene.

## Trivia

* He is the third character to debut in the series.
	+ Bjorn, Jimmy, Jack and Bast all debuted in the show in the same order as they did on *Peggle Nights*.
* He is the first character to appear in an episode completely alone.
* His name in the Peggle Universe is Renfield but the creators changed it to Jack for unknown reasons. That makes him the first character to have a change of his name.
* Despite debuting very early in the series, he doesn't appear as often as the rest of the early-introduced characters.
* One of the weirdest facts of the whole series is probably the fact that Jack has, along with Tula and Alen, blood and even animal organs!
	+ The creators originally intented to make his "blood" orange like the liquid pumpkins have and without brain. The decided to add all of them as a comic effect.
	+ Weirdly enough, he doesn't seem to possess any other real organ than a brain.
* One of his candidate names was *Pumpkid*, a pun of the words "pumpkin" and "kid". The creators concluded to *Jack* instead.
	+ *Punk Kid* resembles his candidate name very much.
* He was supposed to star as the third character in Back Forest, but the creators decided to put his tale in a different episode, on its own.
	+ Jimmy originally died in the stairs of Jack's castle. This event would be the transition point to Jack's tale.
	+ Back Forest and Punk Kid were released the same day, which may indicate there is a continuation between those 2 episodes.
* He is the first plant character to be introduced in the series and the first non-animal in general.
