"Strategy? I just keep on swinging 'till I hit something or someone."

- Jet's main solitary strategy without his teammates "Give me a break, old geezer..."

- His response after Professor Ozpin named him leader of JJNK. Jet Yukimura is a student of Beacon Academy, and the leader of Team JJNK. An observant, yet stoic fellow with an uncouth expression, the genuine intuition that burdens his humane, and emotional depths buried underneath that brash exterior is facade to his true self. His partner is his own brother.

Note: Anything in Italic means that the character has yet to achieve and experience it, and not for RP Purposes.

Appearance
Jet's own appearance reflects his usual and primary personality. He has a build in the right posture, physically fit but with little muscular preference, jet-black/deep cobalt spiky hair with fringes reaching slightly passing the chin level, intimidating red eyes, and a slightly pale complexion. His neck is wrapped with a bloody red scarf with a metallic plate having the word REBELLION etched on it.

The eye-catching clothing one can see from the young man is his stylish jacket, aptly named Infernus Aerternum, exposing a wide variety of colors that intertwine into a palette of dark & sinister expressions; The majority of the aesthetics are in jet-black, having a pure white tone in the inner layer and streaks of neon violet shade flowing along the center, the sleeves and lower rims of the jacket are styled with flaming patterns and the back of it has an intersecting pattern with a bright dark-bluish hue, eventually forming an X-shaped design. There are runes around the jacket's exterior as well, indicating the usage of Fire Dust has been woven to its texture, the dark-blue tone of flames emitted is a result of the woven Dust being exposed towards Jet's Aura, drastically changing the reddish-orange tone into a dark-blue color. The jacket is worn over a crimson/white sleeveless turtleneck with a magenta rim and a single black streak printed on the center.

His lower clothing consists of a pair of two-toned baggy pants with silver on the upper region and black along the bottom section, the pants are fastened with 2 black belts having a golden buckle, and they holster 2 zippered pouches having Dust alongside Jet's allowance and Scroll. He's more suited with urban lifestyle when it comes to shoewear, so basically Jet wears a stylish pair of black/golden sneakers with a taupe sole. Finally, just for the sake of his own clothing purposes, he has a silvery-white banner-like fabric attached and hanged from his back with distorted patterns of black all over it.

Background
Mostly raised within the borders of Kisaragi, Jet is the eldest son of Snow Yukimura, the current head of the Yukimura lineage, and December Yukimura, a prominent descendant of a family of deadly bounty hunters. Most of his time as a young witty kid is with his baby brother, and usually be accompanied with his mother whenever she went to Atlas to work as a baker.

Personality
From the perspective of other people, the common traits normally spotted from Jet is a stoic, and uncouth behavior accompanied with sarcasm. He has an observant perception in those red eyes, good for analyzing the environment around him, but it serves little purpose to his brash and cynical taste that usually makes Jet give others a cold and dissatisfied impression, regardless of who they are. Jet is rather coarse in his way of speaking to those who wish to hold a conversation with him, be it an ally or an enemy.

Jet's level of obedience is only restricted to the individuals, and allies whom he placed deep trust towards them. While he bears no qualms towards the authorities and government, he excessively shows vanity and disregard to its security personnel and the military by calling them in total secrecy derogatory terms. The insults, opinions, and compliments he makes are mostly tainted with dark humor and is not afraid to be scolded or reminded by such words, making him very uneasy towards the people who are not used to this kind of behavior. He can be a quite standoffish towards newcomers, as stated by Jin, but there lies a heart of pure gold buried deep in his dead-serious and brash facade revealed if they persist in hanging out with him.

He has an acute mind that earned his position as team leader, able to make quick-thinking insights and effective ways to the situation. He's known among his teammate to give coarse, but rational advise, he also harbors a much compassionate, and caring side layered by blunt and sardonic exterior, he prioritizes the well-being and safety of his comrades, and family above his. Another prominent characteristic of this hidden side is that he greatly values of interracial equality, he never admits it, but he values actions and words that would mend the severed ties between Human and Faunus closer to reunion. Deep within him, he deeply misses his mother and dearly cherishes her memory from the bottom of his heart. This genuinely more humane mannerism is also reflected as he will never do anything reckless without a justified reason, and shows the determination of continuing the generation of the Yukimura.

During an assigned mission, Jet always commands his teammates to bring anyone unrelated to the mission out of the field, he doesn't want any unrelated casualties, and advises his members to use their wits and judgment at its peak so they won't have the risk of costing their own lives. He shows a high sense of morality, refusing to kill a living being, even if said being is a White Fang member, because of his moral standards about life itself.

Jet despises motivations, and encouragement such as "Keep working hard" and "Great effort", to him, he is very serious and takes his job without hesitation, such encouragement will only piss him off. Other traits include waking up early around 4:30 to have a physically fit exercise routine, and casually attending yoga sessions, these activities he casually join are to mend his stress and worries before and after missions or exams taken. It is worth noting that he hold utter devotion in understanding and learning the cosmic concept of the subject matter of Astronomy, since it is a major theme in the village.

After acquiring Astral Heat: The Second Terror, Jet has been implanted with mental barricades that leads his thoughts to accomplish one crucial goal: 

Abilities & Arsenal
A brief summary of what Jet has in his repertoire of combat statistics;

+ Years of tutelage under his mother's wing molded him into fighter greatly emphasizing in aggression and fluid movement.

+ A phenomenal fighter of deadly brute force and lightning-fast speed.

+ Adept finesse in dual-wielding swordsmanship, emphasizing in devastating assaults at breakneck speeds.

+ Very proficient in using Fire or Lightning Dust, since those two are his preferred types above other types.

+ Quite skilled in Jeet Kune Do & Karate since both are the traditional martial arts his family had practiced throughout years.

+ Profound intellect to come up with analyzed situations and last-minute decisions even in the heat of battle.

Infernus Aeternum: Made and woven with Fire Dust by his elders of his village before leaving, Jet is true to his title of the Dark Inferno whenever he dons his trademark jacket. He is able to enhance his hand-to-hand combat finesse with the blue flames coming out from the jacket, launch a stream of fireballs, phoenix-shaped fire attacks, and variety of fire-based attacks. Sadly being accustomed to its wielder's fire-forged theme, it is rendered useless after being tossed for laundry, or being douse in high amounts of water where Jet has to wait for a period of time for it to completely dry.

Blackout: The belial, dark, and forlorn design of Blackout heavily defines itself a more of Slashing-oriented type of Hyper Blade, emphasizing on excruciating painful slashes, easily tearing young Grimm or inexperienced thugs apart. The Dust Amplifier for Blackout is in the form of a dinosaur/dragon's head, once Dust is inserted through back of the "head", and the horn-trigger is lifted, the "head" does a chomping movement to access the Dust to surge in, granting whatever properties to enhance its demonic-styled, and crestfallen blade. The types of Dust used to enhance Blackout are Fire, Gravity, and Impact

Starchaser: Whereas Blackout defines the dark side of his owner, Starchaser exposes a cosmic, righteous, and lucid design that focuses in driving enemies through a barrage of stabs, making more of a Stabbing-oriented weapon. The golden Dust Amplifier you see is slightly similar to a cyberpunk aircraft's body. Just like Blackout, he can insert Dust into the chamber for an enhanced elemental booster channeled throughout the blade. Lightning, Ice, and Wind are the types of Dust used to imbue Starchaser's blade.



If the odds are against his favors, Jet would tap into his Semblance for a brief power booster called Astral Heat. This Semblance radically boosts his combat parameters to escalated levels, allowing the Dark Inferno to endure the battle for a brief moment of time. However brutal and more aggressive Jet becomes once he taps into his Semblance, it also opens up for any well-prepared adversary to gain the upper hand because exploitable drawbacks listed below; ''However unbeknownst to him, a deadly side-effect greatly affects him once he improves and strengthens Astral Heat. Dubbed as Astral Heat: The Second Terror, his overall parameters are temporarily off the charts than what he can normally elevate, turning them into powerful attributes that will turn the tides of battle but in exchange of such power, there's a drawback slowly and surely transforming the Dark Inferno into a mindless beast, only the impetus to hurt, destroy, and even kill those foolish to stand in his way. Jet's eyes produces a malicious violet glow in his eyes and assumes a stance mimicking a Tyrannosaurus' pose.''
 * Should a water or ice based attack is used against Jet while his Semblance is in activation, it will instantly disable the Semblance, and Jet is unable to tap into it for an hour and 30 minutes. This is why Jet needs to wait said waiting time after taking baths.
 * Exhaustion looms closer and closer once the Semblance is prolonged.
 * Even stronger opponents with superior combat experience can trump the Dark Inferno, even if he is using his Semblance.
 * His defense is the only attribute not to be affected by the Semblance, strong and brutal strikes will take the healing factor a long time to mend any wounds created.

Jet's Aura color is a dark tone of blue. The fires he used to enhance his attacks are in a dark-bluish tone because of this.

Weaknesses

 * Heavily relies in close-ranged tactics, leaving him very open towards strong ranged attacks.
 * Hydrokinetic attacks or anything water-based can be a real pain in the ass because of his fire-oriented battle style.
 * Hybrid dual swordsmanship has potential downsides. Experienced and strategic opponents can reveal few exploitable soft spots in his hyper-aggressive fighting style.
 * His nose is an Achilles' Heel. One sudden strong force, and Jet will start sneezing.
 * Rarely relies on any defensive tools to make up his brutal dual wielding stance.
 * Tendencies in underestimating his opponents.
 * Incapability of swimming.

Misc.

 * Astrophilic and Ambulophilic; Jet is utterly devoted towards astronomy and doesn't mind walking for a thousand miles.
 * Has a sweet tooth for ice cream and ice cream cakes but extremely detests all sorts of candies.
 * Jet is a master when it comes to drawing and sketching, and can be seen with his drawing pad.
 * Despite being very rude and informal, Jet is fond reading a wide variety of fictional books and references such as encyclopedias or almanacs.
 * According to his family history, he has an uncle working as an ice cream vendor somewhere in Vacuo named Castano.
