PLAYER: Ray #2
CHARACTER: Jack Kelly
CANON: Newsies (Broadway)

AU NAME: Jack Kelly
AU AGE: 19
AU OCCUPATION: University student & intern at the the local newspaper!
BLURB:

• University student, studying journalism.
• On the track team and somehow got a full-ride scholarship for that.
• Roommate to David Jones! And loves to torment him. If you can help make David’s life worse please talk to Jack, he will love you.
• Orphan - mother died when he was a wee babe, and father when he was around seven, so he’s been in the orphanage/on his own ever since it was legal.
• Interns at the local newspaper.
• Also works part-time as a waiter because the scholarship is great but he still needs to eat.
• Couldn’t cook to save his life, though. He pretty much burns water.
• Banned from working in the fast food industry after nearly burning down a McDonald’s. Anyone who works there has probably heard the story tbh.
• Secret theater buff?? He doesn’t talk about it openly but he knows all the theater owners in town and will lurk in the theaters from time to time.
• In his (limited) free time, Jack volunteers at the orphanage and other charity events! Even if it’s just something dumb like donating art or writing some fluff piece for a page in the paper that no one actually looks at.
• Will happily fight you if you bully his friends or some kids within his line of sight.
• Will also be super uncomfortable if you invite him to your house because family environments?? What do?? Please don’t bring him to meet your family (by which i mean please do.)
• Lowkey adopted by all the older ladies in town because they like how he flatters them.
• He’s a charmer!
• And a hopeless flirt and a heartbreaker. Look out, ladies, Jack’s coming for you! And he’ll leave you again after a date or two.
• Also has no sense of personal space, prepare for your bubble to be invaded.
• Does freelance artwork on occasion for extra cash. And he’s good at it, but he will laugh at anyone who actually comments on that. He’s not gonna be just another starving artist, tyvm.

LOOKING FOR: Friends! Classmates! Past flings! Coworkers! People who know his secret love for theater and can hold that over him! Negative CR! Basically I'm up for anything.
