AGE. Seventeen.

OCCUPATION. Amateur boxer, Red Hook gangster, high student student.
RESIDENCE. Red Book, Brooklyn
| [atrb=width,100] | [cs=2]- Born to a couple of post-grads, seventeen years back. Both kids were transfers, in different schools (NYU and Barnard), from England and Italy. They both revered the American city-life, but that’s as much as they really had in common. In spite of this, they grew to be eternally fond of each other, understanding their responsibility to raise Jools’ older sister. They ended up having four kids in total, Jools being the second.
- His upbringing was pretty solid but required work. From nine years old, he worked as a delivery boy for the older woman on his block. He eventually worked the Latin bodega as a cashier at thirteen. The owners were technically breaking the law but understood his family’s situation. Jools’ father was a friendly journalist. He continues to have dreams of live media but currently freelances. His mother works at the nearby hair salon while submitting paintings to local galleries. They made it the best they could.
- When he was thirteen, Jools’ sister picked up boxing as a sport. Jools followed for self-defense only. They were both considered naturals and ended up making it a daily after-school activity.
- At fifteen, the student was while coming home from a late shift at the bodega. This wolf was named Viktor and propositioned him into a gang. After giving him a good idea what he had become, Viktor managed to get his loyalty. He spent many late nights since, telling his parents that he had later shifts. They never bothered to question his employers. At sixteen, he bit his sister.
- Jools made a deal with Viktor that he’d donate half of his after-school time to the Red Hooks and the other half to his boxing career. With his genetic change, he started spending half of his boxing time on his studies. He hasn't quite salvaged two underclassman years of horrible grades, but he's trying. Viktor still gets most of his time, but Jools has learned to appreciate the thug life for what it's done for him. He currently has four wins, one loss. 3 K.O.
| [cs=2]- BOXING. His first coach said he had a knack for it, along with his sister. His second coach said he simply knew how to handle guarding and counters. After getting bit, his third coach thinks he should’ve been in the minors as a toddler. Other kids have passion in arts, academics, etc. Jools believes he was destined to box and plans his life out around the sport. He somehow maintains his boxing intuition as a werewolf.
- PAIN SUPPRESSION. Being hit countless times in the ring, he knows how to handle a punch. This control over pain has been further engrained in his physiology after being turned. He still gets fatigued with each punch but the neural feeling just isn’t there. It keeps him consistently invigorated but can also be life-threatening. Bullets are bites to him which sucks when he’s not turned. Punches hurt him less but most of his fatigue is self-achieved anyway, due to his next power…
- ENHANCED SPEED. It’s been two years since he’s noticed an abnormal rise in his speed both in the ring and on the streets. He now knows how to control his acceleration to a point where he’s not freaking people out and getting media attention. He moves faster than he can think in some cases, so he can’t throw a barrage of speed strikes like Flash. However, he can definitely manipulate his speed to add force. And, no, he cannot make cyclones.
- POWER I (ACCELERATED DEVELOPMENT). After being turned, his physiology was enhanced in more ways than one. In this case, the change is genetic. A sudden growth in the learning rate has been easily perceived. His teachers, sister, and parents have even noticed how quickly he can now pick up subjects and concepts. The acceleration has sped up his coach’s agenda which gives him a bit more time to do hoodrat shit with Viktor and the gang. His intelligence hasn’t improved but his knowledge potentially can.
- SANCTUM I. In the basement of an abandoned condominium, Jools used a small, tightly secured room to learn how to control his abilities. The only other person who has the key to this door is Viktor, who opened the door in the mornings when he changed back. Now, he uses to the room to cool off. It has most of the boxing equipment you’d find in an amateur gym. He scavenged those. He purchased a scroll of scrying protection but it’s minor stuff. Anyone with some knowhow can bypass it.
- INFLUENCE I He’s recognized around Red Hook, that’s for sure. Everyone in school knows his name despite im not being overly social. In the neighborhood, he’s considered a member beneath Xi and Vik’s status but something like their up-and-comer. He’s proved himself to the gang, but they revere him as they would a little brother.
