Name: Jonathon Knowles (Prefers 'Jon')
Age: 21 years old
Height: 5'9
Gender: Male
Orientation: Straight

Appearance:Jonathon is not particularly tall; coming to a height of 5’8. He is also remarkably slender, with an almost girlish lanky frame. However, what he doesn’t have in height, he makes up for in looks. Jonathon is not particularly handsome; “pretty” would probably be a better word for him. Or even more accurate: “ridiculously pretty.”
Jon has incredible, electric blue eyes, ones that can be seen fifty feet away. He also has subtle cheekbones, just enough to make his face seem almost angular, but not quite. He has pale pink lips and a winsome smile. His hair is a deep brown and is almost always always tousled or windblown. His hair barely brushed the collar of his shirt, and can have a bit of wave to it when he brushes it. The rare times he chooses to speak, its seen that he is surprisingly soft-spoken.
Jon is not particularly muscular, and is more sinewy than anything. He is in shape, due to the fact he is an avid runner, but he is still ridiculously skinny. He wears a pair of dark blue jeans that are just the right amount of baggy, with a thick brown belt running through the loops. He also wears a tight-ish light-colored t-shirt underneath a nondescript black jacket that has a hood. He wears scuffed up, dirty boots as well.
He has bad eyesight, and has a pair of glasses that he will wear sometimes, though he generally prefers not to. He also has a noticeable accent, though it doesn't sound quite like the normal Irish accent. It varies more and is a little more high-pitched.
Personality: Jon is a very nondescript person, who likes to hang out in the background as supposed to being in the spotlight. He is a mild-mannered man, and is rather polite the few occasions when he decides to speak. He is very easygoing, and it is inherently difficult to rile him up. He can get along with just about anyone with no problem.
He is normally very serious, though he does have a bit of a humorous side to him once you get to know him. He a vegetarian, though that’s for no particular reason and is his own choice. He does have a passion for running, which can help soothe his mind and allow him to think.
One thing to note about Jonathon is that he despises having the spotlight on him, metaphorically speaking. He usually tries to pass it off to another person, or says “No big deal” even it truly was. However, this does not mean that he is a “fly on the wall” at the parties. In his opinion, its difficult to be a fly on the wall at a party if you don’t go to the party at all.
Jon avoids most social gatherings as if they are the plague, preferring instead to run or perhaps call up on his friends if he can. He is also something of a romantic, despite his limited knowledge of the romantic arts and lack of luck at it, and he’s a big softie at heart. He really is more of a listener than a talker, and he always has an ear open.

History: Jonathon was born the oldest child out of two for a single mother in Douglas, Ireland. His mother worked full-time at a local bookstore, and that is where Jon and his much younger sister spent most of their days until he was deemed old enough to stay at home.
During the day when he was at home alone, he would read books or go for a run (after calling his mother to let her know). Jon never had many friends growing up, though he did have a select few he enjoyed hanging out with. One of the few childhood friends he had was a mousy little girl named Marie. Unbeknownst to Jon, Marie had quite the crush on him and would follow him around.
When he was twelve, she gave him a note asking him to meet her behind the bleachers after school. Naturally, he had no desire to hurt her and did as she had asked. They made stilted conversation for a few minutes, before she finally blurted out her feelings for him in a loud rush. Completely surprised by what he thought was a random proclamation, Jonathon was silent. Marie took his silence the wrong way and fled.
A few days later, his other friends found out about Marie’s declaration through the grapevine and started teasing Jonathon about it. He immediately told them that it wasn’t like that, and he didn’t have feelings for her. Marie rounded the corner at that precise moment, and overheard it.
And so ended the one real chance Jonathon ever had at a girlfriend.
Jon continued through his schooling career with little problem after that. When he was fifteen, the small bookstore where his mother worked was forced to close down. Her pay had never been much and they were not able to stay in the small house he had been born in. They moved into a two bedroom apartment.
He continued on through school and managed to graduate. He entered college, though he didn't have a true idea as to what he wanted his career to be. When he was twenty, he began to hallucinate seeing a cheetah around him at random intervals. No one else could see it, and he began to think that he was truly insane.
After months of this, he had a dream consisting of the same cheetah he had been seeing. The dream consisted of the cheetah making signs out of the heady fog that surrounded their ankles before finally shifting form into a human shape: himself. Then the cheetah-form moved forward until it melded with his own. The final thought he received before he woke up was of a town: Noatok, Canada.
When he did awake, something felt different. As if he was suddenly sharing his body. It wasn't a bad feeling, just unusual. He continued on for another month despite his ability to get the town out of his mind. Finally, he said goodbye to his mother and sister and left for Noatok.
Talisman: King Cheetah
Description: Very serene and calm. Very swift and focused. Tendency to be insightful at times, but is usually too busy running to be so. He is something of a speed demon when in his animal form, so he usually tries to run just as often as his body will allow him to.
Your Name: Kayla, but Tilani is definitely preferred. ^^
Your Experience: Er..., sketchy but seven years or so, off and on.
Other Characters: None at the moment, will probably make another one at some point.
