Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Appears generally amused by everything around her. Fascinated by every culture's methods of creating things even if they are doing it all wrong. Can't resist playing up the stereotype of tempter devil/wishmaker for the sheer humor factor, it would be easier to get a cat to turn away fresh fish. While appearing carefree and disorganized, she is actually quite the opposite. She does have a pet sehlat, named Itchayok who she spoils rotten. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | -Strengths: Enhanced strength and endurance, easily twice the capability of an Olympic class athlete. Immune to most known physical diseases and poisons, but is susceptible to those effecting non-corporeals. -Weaknesses: Can be contained by methods that restrain non-corporeal beings. Needs to return to her home system at least once every year and a day to maintain physical and mental health. -Both & Neither: Variable heightened senses-hearing is average but able to taste the difference between regular and replicated food. With concentration can expand range of vision dramatically into other spectrums. Sense of smell is on par with the average dog. Able to eat practically anything, though radioactive materials give her the burps. Cannot die in the traditional sense, physical form can die but her consciousness returns to her homeworld. |

| Personal History | The youngest of her family, Jaca was born into the Mashthumb family of the Mount Nevercold clan of craftsmen. Her mother's physicality died when she was young so she was raised by her father and extended family. Her upbringing was normal, relatively speaking considering the Djabul. She started learning the family crafting soon as she was able to hold a hammer. Family tradition encouraged her to 'learn everything' so while working the metal and gem forges is her favorite, she is very capable with crafting jewelry, practical goods and engineering work. Her curiosity regarding the galaxy outside her home system was peaked during a trade negotiation on the edge of the system starbase when she saw the frustrated exasperation a Terran had when trying to deal with her father and bond uncle without a member of the designated Federation negotiation team present. Seeing the spluttering human turn a healthy shade of red while yelling his frustration was the funniest thing she'd seen and she wanted to see if all the humans were like this. As tradition decreed, she petitioned her father and bond uncle as joint Head of Family to want to go see the galaxy. Naturally they had some misgivings since it's still questionable that outsiders are sapient/sentient. Outsiders have no concept of living deliciously, they're limited in flesh and thought. Outsiders can't even unchoose aspects of the world around them to choose what works. They did concede that outsider reactions were hysterical. Eventually it was decided that she go sit with the family Linefounder and listen to their advice. If she still wanted to go after that, they would grant their blessing. Na-Zazzrael, the Linefounder had also shared an interest in the outsider's existence when she once wore physical form and shared some of her memories from those distant eras, both good and bad. The Linefounder also shared memories of the experiences that a Djabul needed to be mindful of at all times. After reflecting on Na-Zazzrael's advice, Jaca was still interested in doing some experiencing. Once she was granted her appropriate documentations listing her as a certified craftsman of Djabul works and her travel papers, she was off on the first outbound trade ship. Life away from home's been interesting to say the least. Jaca's made some friends enough to concede that some outsiders are sapient/sentient, but most probably aren't. One friend from Vulcan gifted her with a sehlat pup in thanks for flustering a scholarly rival to the point of needing a vacation. |

| Simming History | As far back as 2004 in a range of genres, mostly Trek, Zombie, Marvel. Last three Trek sims were Jerusalem, Galaxy, Miranda. Left each either due to sim collapse or unable to continue to contribute due to real life matters at the time. I have been GM/AGM of several sims over the years, so I'm familiar with what goes with the position and am sympathetic. | |
| How did you hear about Starbase 400 | A longtime friend is on the sim and mentioned it on Facebook |
