## Personality

If you’re about to go have some fun, definitely take Jules along with you. Despite coming from less than humble origins, Jules is very down to earth, amiable, and laid back. He’s a confident speaker and loves to make sure he looks good- charm is what’ll get him attention, after all. He loves the company of others and even more so loves doing new and interesting things. His sense of curiosity ties in with his desire for adventure that only experience can satisfy. He’s filled with genuine wanderlust, and all around just wants to have a good time… Though sometimes good times can translate to somewhat annoying teasing and pranks. He finds a lot of humor in riling people up (in good nature, but still) and at times it becomes difficult to pt up with. Despite that, sure, he can be a bit melodramatic and over the top sometimes, but he always means well and wants to make it up to you if he ever did so happen to genuinely upset you.

His generally upbeat tempo might leave others behind, and when he gets going on something he’s passionate about, he gets going. There’ll be no end to the talking for a foreseeable five minutes if you get him really riled up. Though, he won’t be too offended if you tell him to stop. Probably. He really quickly finds interest and gets bored of things, and as such is usually on the hunt for something new to be the focus of his attention. Because of that he had a hard time staying in one place if he can help it, and an even harder time getting genuinely close to people because he just can’t stay put.

The drawbacks of such an energetic demeanor is that more often than not he can seem a little uncaring and disrespectful. His solution to most things is a joke and a smile, so when it comes to more sensitive talks, he’s largely lost. When real emotions come into play, he loses his confident edge and isn’t sure what to do. The concept of really opening up to people is a bit foreign to him, as he often keeps himself quite guarded. In the end he’s the type of person you go to for a good time- not for a shoulder to cry on. He has difficulty trying to empathize and understand feelings, including his own, and will more often than not seem a bit insensitive in emotionally delicate situations. He’s not particularly selfless either, so he won’t be too inclined to stop you from bawling your eyes out unless you’re actually a friend of his.

Perhaps even deep down, he feels a slight sense of insecurity. Sure, he’s made friends- a couple meaningful relationships- but the gaping hole of parental affection in his childhood still says hello every so often. Perhaps he did manage to turn his life around and become a new him that's worth loving, but sometimes he can't help but feel something isn't right. Oh well- he’ll just have to keep his chin up! The attention and secrutiy he craves won’t come to his doorstep, so he’ll just have to seize it himself! Sure, maybe that’s selfish, but that’s just the way he is!

## Background

Some people are born lucky. Some have kind parents, fortune, and everything they could've ever wanted. Others, not so much. In Jules' case, it was a perfect set up for a happy ending and a spoiled life, but something went wrong. Fortune became tragedy, and tragedy, a mistake. Jules Reyson turned out to be the illegitimate son of a well renown business family, and from there whatever easy life he had crumbled. From the very start his own family didn't even bother to acknowledge the existence of the child that nearly collapsed their reputation. It wasn't his fault, of course, but bitter adult eyes couldn't help but look upon him as a reminder of the fiasco they wished to forget.

And so Jules grew up to be a troubled and troubling child. Severely lacking in the attention he craved, he resorted to mischief until he was reprimanded and forced into a world of books and strict education. The irony in that, however, was that he found family in the tutor, that for the first time in his life, expressed sympathy and affection- the very thing he had been craving all his life. The impish child eventually 'straightened out', the parents unaware that he had long since disowned them as his family. In fact, at his very first chance to get away (AKA study abroad in France), he took it without hesitation. It was there that he became the new him- someone worth loving- someone that would be remembered. He wished to be someone who stood out in the crowd, someone people liked, that way, he would always have attention. He would never have to relive those first dismally lonely years of his life.

Amazingly, it worked. People loved the jovial personality and flashy disposition. Jules had friends. He got what he wanted.

But as fate would have it, all good things eventually have to come to an end. It wasn't long before he had to return to America and his parents, and after heated debate he found himself being forced to carry on the 'Reyson family business'. He didn't understand why people who pretended like he didn't exist suddenly cared about him, but in spite of his anger he conceded. As much as he hated to admit it he needed the (monetary) support of his parents, so he had no choice but to live through it. He certainly wasn't going to be happy about it, though. His dreams of storytelling, art, and freedom were all crushed as he was suddenly chained to a life he so desperately had tried to escape.

It wasn't long before he found himself slipping back into a state reminiscent of his drearier days. This was his life again, huh? But when all seemed lost, help came in the form of a curious letter.

A place. A promise of change. The bird looked up at the bars of his cage.

Change. Freedom.

With the letter in hand and a bit of convincing, Jules threw on a jacket and went on an innocent little trip to New York. It was just a little 'vacation' before the soulless years of college awaiting him. Perhaps he was ridiculous for heeding the strange call, but the small, desperate part of him saw it as his final hope.

Besides,

What was the worst that could happen?
