Personal history

Jax was born in L.A. California. He was married but divorced his ex-wife Elaine and won full custody of their daughter. They divorced because Elaine was a heavy drug user and it was ruining their marriage. Was loving but away from home a lot. He tries to keep up to speed with daughter, knows where she lives and regularly checks up on her, hasn't made contact since embrace. Currently his Daughter is attending college with a pursuit in criminal justice, and she lives with 2 friends from childhood.   After a few years of College, Jax served in the Military for several years before being recruited into the FBI. He had ultimately landed a position in the FBI at the bottom of the totem pole. He would be stuck with tasks such as being sent to park a car at some docks, then walk away and leave it there with no explanation regarding why it was there. This unknowing connection to the Second Inquisition drew the attention of his Sire, Marcus Simms. It was on one such mission that his Sire had found finally taken him for the Embrace.    Jax was apart of a Tremere research team that was able to catch and study a Werewolf. They performed various magical and mundane experiments on the creature.   Jaxx worked with his original Coterie Quinton's Bois in several events that lead to Serafina Ostrogski seizing Praxis. He also retrieved an old tome of Blood Sorcery from the Anarch Tremere that held lost knowledge of the Path of Levinbolt. He served as one of the Sheriff's Hounds for a couple of years, before his Sire asked Jax to become his Whip. Shortly after being assigned to Quinton's Bois, Jax began to show a natural affinity for Blood Sorcery. He was able to learn higher levels of Blood Sorcery at a much quicker pace than most. Due to this natural affinity and success/competancy at controling Blood Sorcery, he was advanced to the rank of Apprentice of the Fifth Circle. Commonly known as a Magister. A few years after this ascension, Jax was assigned a younger Tremere to act as a tutor to. Wysteria has been included in the new Coterie that Jax is going to be apart of, due to her ambition and the natural affinity towards Blood Sorcery. She seems to be a natural at the more violent and destructive side of Blood Sorcery.

    Hey, some people gotta die. You have finally begun, even accepted, your inevitable slide into moral sloth and self-indulgence. Killing is more than fine; ask the elders, they’ve been around long enough to see whole genocides ignored. Destruction, theft, injury – these are all tools, not taboos. Physical changes become quite evident as “ashen pallor” shades more firmly into “corpse-like.”
