Appearance: Jean's physical attributes are...unique, as is for everyone else, yes, but the fact that Jean is from such different parts of the world... Her facial traits are mostly of Asiatic descent, and her skin tone is a mix of her half Brazilian, half British blood related father and half Korean, half Taiwanese mother. Her eyes, though almost shaped, turn into moon-like crescents whenever she smiles, a trait passed on from her mother. Her dimples come from her father, her nose as well. Her height comes from both - whereas her mother stood at 5'2", her father was 6'1", or so she read from her files. She does not hold the hour-glass shape, but she does have some defining curves to her body. Not too big, but not too small to go by unnoticed. Her attire varies from comfortable clothing to formal wear, whether it be black dress pants or simple sweats. Of course, when at work, she dresses more professionally, and does her best not to look provocative to the student body. Thankfully, she thinks guys that are younger than her to be a turn off, so she figures she wouldn't have any trouble concerning the law and younger males.
Fighting Style: Jean, at a young age, was interested in two forms of martial arts. Ketsugo Jujutsu and Sin Moo Hapkido. History of why she got involved would be in the History section of the bio! But anyway, Ketsugo Jujutsu is taught through principles and concepts rather than particular techniques. Rather than trying to learn and memorize all the techniques, the class Jean took allowed her to create many variations by herself. By training in this manner, Jean becomes sensitive to every situation and is creative in adapting to it. Sin Moo Hapkido, according to Wikipedia: Sin Moo Hapkido incorporates a philosophy of non-violence, self improvement, adaptability, and physical, emotional and spiritual balance, with the basic Hapkido training. Additionally, Sin Moo Hapkido formalizes a series of techniques, although at advanced levels students are expected to synthesize their own work, building on the principles of circular motion, energy flow, and the water principle (Yu) to arrive at techniques that are suited to their style, size, and ability levels. Advanced training also includes weapon training and study of acupressure for both defensive and healing techniques. The core principles of Sin Moo Hapkido are circular motion (Won), the water principle (Yu), and adaptability also referred as harmony (Wha). The use of energy flows are also emphazited in Sin Moo Hapkido.
Jean's strengths are fairly simple. She's a patient, hardworking young woman. She has a fair amount of stamina, and because of her small frame, an agile body. Her muscles are fairly developed due to being a bit more on the athletic side, and she's a social butterfly. Because of Ketsugo Jujutsu, she is able to get herself out of sticky situations and adapts easily to change.
Her weaknesses, on the other hand, can get a little complicated. Although Jean has patience for a wide variety of things, she is also impatient and hot tempered when it comes to others. And although her muscles may be developed, she has a hard time packing a hard punch out of pure strength. Because she can be a social butterfly, she also has quite a number of rivals.
History: Jean's, or Ezra's, history is quite complex. She grew up with five sisters, all names from books of the Bible. Her step-parents, who were well-known scientists, did experiments on their children. Of course, unknown to the world because of morals and such. But, we won't delve too deep into the past, simply because Jean wants to start anew - hence, the name change. Her parents had gotten locked up ever since her youngest sister, Jenesis, came out to the public, revealing what her parents had done to her and the rest of her older sisters. Of course, Jean, already enrolled into a university and about to graduate with her bachelors within a year, found that the complex history of their family would be...insignificant to her future plans. Jenesis was adopted by their oldest sibling, Revel, who is soon to be married, and Jean had acquired a job at PHS #259 after graduating from Johns Hopkins University.
At first, the thought of attending the school Jenesis once attended was revolting. But, on second thoughts, she decided why the hell not? She would get to see first hand what kind of students young Jenesis came across, and Jenesis, who so desperately wanted to return to that school, would be under her watch. Revel sent her younger sister over to where Jean now resides, however, the fact that the two were related would remain a secret to the student body to avoid favoritism amongst students if Jenesis were ever to be enrolled in Jean's class.
For those of you curious as to what her parents' "experiment" was with Jean, it had to do with weaponry and memorization. And in weaponry/memorization included subjects of math and psychology, and so it was less severe than her other sisters. And, with each sister knowing a different language, Jean happens to know Latin, just as Jenesis knows German. The study of languages fascinate Jean, and so she wants to study as many languages as possible, however, there is just too much to do in such little amount of time. Getting back on topic though. Jean's "experiment" allowed for her to take many classes in martial arts, but only two really sparked an interest within her.
The name change also has some significant meaning. Jean Beauvais wasn't simply a name she wanted because she thought it was pretty, but rather, her biological father's last name was Beauvais, and her biological mother's middle name was Jean, hence, Jean Beauvais. Both her biological parents are deceased, which is how she ended up in an orphanage at a young age - four years old - and adopted by the two scientists that started the study. When she was adopted, there was only Revel, Eza and Nemiah. Levi and Jen came after her.
