Appearance: Jean Paul is pale to the point of appearing otherworldly, has piercing blue eyes, and blonde hair that is worn well-coiffed with ample amounts of product. He stands roughly six feet tall and is a fairly thin man. His style tends to be over the top, often wearing pieces of clothing that will make him stand out in a crowd. Jean Paul is a fan of drama, frilly lace, and styles that are considered to be more feminine. However, he always makes sure to dress appropriately for whatever occasion he is faced with.
Personality: Jean Paul is a hopeless romantic, and chooses to view life through rose-colored lenses. While he is generally a very boisterous, friendly and pleasant person, he can also be quite arrogant. He has a bit of a superiority complex and likes to foster an elitist attitude.
He speaks in a way that makes even the most ordinary things sound very grand, and his stories are embellished sparingly to increase drama and intrigue. Jean Paul often rambles and loses track of where his conversations were going. He is known for speaking with a lot of imagery: “She was swathed in a dress made of the wind and rain, in dark colors like a storm cloud with a hint of lilac. And the jewels set into the fabric sparkled like the freshest morning dew.”
As an artist he is endlessly creative, but does suffer from bouts of depression. Jean Paul likes to surround himself with people to distract from the fact that he is actually a very lonely person. He has always been unlucky in love and tends to fall for vapid male models that would rather take advantage of his wealth and notoriety in the fashion world.
Weapon of Choice: None
Wealth: Jean Paul inherited a small fortune from his late grandmother, but put most of the funds towards his education and later into his business. However, now that he is a well-known name in the fashion industry, he makes a salary that allows him the luxuries that he needs to live very comfortably. He is constantly working to accumulate wealth, and always says: “One can never be too thin, or too rich.”

Other Notes: Jean Paul was a well-known sight among the high society on Dargul, most had seen him at parties and had taken note of his rather eccentric ways. He grew up as an only child and his parents always chose to encourage his creativity, rather than to hinder it. Young Jean Paul was spirted, enthusiastic, and highly artistic. While he had always been skilled when it came to drawing and painting, his artistic talents began to take on a new form when he discovered a love of sewing.
Jean Paul was accepted to a very prestigious design school, where he first met Marzena Choi, as she regularly served as a model there. The two became very good friends, having bonded over their love of high fashion, expensive things, and handsome men. Marzena often served as Jean Paul's "muse model", and many of his handbag creations were made with her in mind. Even as their careers took off and Marzena left Dargul, they remained very close friends.
Now Jean Paul has decided to take his design company JPR to the next level. While he has had success designing handbags, he has taken on the task of moving back to his roots in couture fashion. He has recently moved to Cloud City to start expanding his business, and working with the First Artists Guild.
Intent: To create an NPC for those involved in fashion, textiles, ect to reference. This NPC will also act as a companion for Marzena Choi.
