If you'd like to roleplay with Jack Burnett, you've come to the right place.
Below is some information to get you started.
If you want to find out even more about him, please go to his encyclopedia page linked above.

Discord: Kitomyx

Current Plot Ideas:
  • Frienemies - Due to his extreme aversion to making friends and caring about others in general, Jack enjoys making connections as much as anyone else, but much prefers that people hate him rather than like him. For this reason, he often comes off as a jerk in order to encourage others' dislike of him. If you'd care to be a frienemy to him (or even just plain enemy), feel free to plot with me!
  • Clever Pranks - You can have a prank pulled on you, try to pull a prank on Jack (if you're clever enough), or try to pull one with him on someone else. The possibilities are endless! Jack is always happy to come up with pranks, so if you just want some advice from him, he'd be glad to give that, too...for a price.
  • Deep Discussions - Jack loves to talk. And argue. Maybe a little too much. Still, if you can twist his words like he twists others', poke holes in his faulty logic, call him out on his bs, and overall beat him at his own game, you may just get him to shut up and respect you. Perhaps even admire you.
  • Trading Favors - This Slytherin doesn't mind being used as long as the person using him allows him to use them in return. Furthermore, if anyone does him a favor, it his own personal policy to repay the debt even if the other party doesn't deem it neceesary. Repaying his favors is very important to Jack because he hates to be indebted to anyone.
Goes By: Burnett (preferred), Jack (disliked), Fox (by Selim Faust, Arlo Reynolds, Thomas Lestrange, and Ruby Cazares, but Thomas has specifically taken to calling him 'Chatter Fox' or 'Foxy')
(Also called 'demon' by Persephone Barret, 'Demon Brat' by Rafael D'Spacito, & 'imp' by Hanako Tone, but only in their heads; not to his face)

Common Places To Roleplay: Pretty much anywhere. He likes exploring, so if you have a place you'd like him to be, just let me know and I can come up with a reason for him to be there.

Quirks and Tendencies:
  • Claims to never tell lies because 'lying is too easy' and requires no intelligence - unlike loopholes, omission, and subterfuge.
  • Prefers to bend rules rather than break them for the same reason he doesn't like lying - it takes skill to bend, but not to break.
  • Calls people by their last name, but if he doesn't know their last name, will call them by their house's animal mascot
  • Makes a show of slacking off and fooling around in class to seem like he doesn't care, but works hard on his studies outside of class to stay ahead of his peers
Strong Likes:
  • Cleverness
  • Moral ambiguity
  • Tricksters
  • Having his expectations of others exceeded
  • Being proven wrong
Strong Dislikes:
  • Liars
  • Kindness
  • Stupidity
  • Caring about others
  • Not being in control of his emotions
Strongest Inclination to Discuss:
  • Tricksters (the Trickster character archtype, stories involving tricksters, etc.)
  • Pranks (setting them up, people to prank, what makes a clever prank, etc.)
  • Cleverness (how bending rules is better than breaking them; how subterfuge, loopholes, and omission is better than the easy, boring act of lying, etc.)
  • Morality (moral ambiguity, amoral beings, how nothing is simple enough to be split between right and wrong, etc.)
  • Why friendship and other kinds of bonds and relationships are detrimental to one's health
  • Why kindness is the most dangerous weapon
  • History (his favorite school subject, though he doesn't like people to know he studies hard, let alone had a favorite subject)
