Difference between revisions of "Jack Imahara"

"Sometimes, you just gotta howl at the moon."

Jack Imahara is a sketchy character. Charismatic, likable, and worldly at first glance, at second glance, Jack is always after something, and always trying to sell something else. While he claims to be totally legally and gainfully employed as a host at a host club, Jack is unnecessarily wary around law enforcement, is sometimes spotted selling things in alleyways, and always reeks of Up To Something. Despite his perpetually obscure agenda, Jack tries his hardest to be a kind, polite, and good person even when he's trying to bilk his interlocutors for all they're worth. While he regards the con game as the core of his repertoire, Jack is guided by a selective sense of morality rooted, apparently, in the belief that in every person is a gentle, loving party animal that just needs to be shown a good time. In spite of his obsession with the material, he has a deep interest in the occult and the supernatural. His underlying sense that there's more to this world and his odd sense of honor have led him to begin his own inquiry into the paranormal.

Thou art I, and I art thou... I am Coyote. We will hunt together, brother!

Coyote, the trickster spirit, is the hero and sometime pseudo-antagonist of many Native American cultures, especially the Navajo and the Apache. Sometimes appearing as a mixture of man and animal, and sometimes appearing as one of his little-c coyote brethren, Coyote is a master of magic and wiles, given special dispensation from the Creator to protect mankind. However, he can be kind of a jerk...

Jack, like Coyote and coyotes, is a survivor through and through who will do whatever it takes to make it, be it stealing fire from the Fire Beings or eating secondhand food. While they are prideful, dignity is not a problem, and trickery is the noblest of all weapons. Many are stronger, fiercer, more powerful, smarter, wiser, and more adept, but none are more... well... uh... um... persistent?
