This long-limbed, narrow-faced, bob tailed son of a gun has bright, warm ginger fur. When looking closely at his back, one can tell that the hairs actually exhibit flecked colors ranging from an almost cream to a deep coppery shade. From most distances though, the majority of his body appears to be a gradient of dull bronze to rich copper from his toes up to his spine. The solidity of his ticked pattern is broken by deep red, residual striping on his lower legs and a very little on his face. His eyes are at a striking contrast from the rest of him, being a pale green-yellow shade of hazel.

If you had to run into someone in a dark alley on a stormy night, Jasper wouldn't be a bad choice. Friendly, open, and charitable by nature, he's the sort who would be willing to help you out without asking any questions. He has a healthy sense of humor and enjoys engaging in good-natured banter or small talk. He takes jokes well, and is very playful; frequently he will start an impromptu game with kittens or tussle with friends, so long as it doesn't get too rough.
Part of his open nature leads him to be very up front with those he is attracted to. He enjoys flirting and, though he takes rejection with grace, can sometimes have problems with his "puppy-love" being too easily swayed. Part of this is because, while Jasper is fine in casual situations, he is completely out of his element whenever serious or emotional topics come. Usually he is incapable of knowing which issues will be sensitive ones, so he blunders into making the situation worse. The other part is because he has trouble committing himself to certain routines. While he can be fiercely loyal, he enjoys frequently changing things up: seeing new people and places and trying new things.
One thing he can commit to though is a grudge. While he is not quick to anger, once his ire has been earned, he rarely forgives. When he feels he has been used or wronged, he will seek revenge in whatever way he feels most fits the crime. Whether that be cutting a person out of his life forever, hunting them down, or something in between.

History
Born on a cold, snowy morning after a long, hard labor, Jasper was the only kitten in his litter. That was lucky for his small mother, Molly, who barely survived birthing him alone. She had known the risks though and had decided she still wanted to have at least one child with her mate. When he had died in a battle not long after she had found out she was pregnant, she only grew more determined to bare and raise their child. Still, as she cleaned her baby off and realized no more were coming, she couldn't help but sigh with relief.
Raising a single kitten had its own challenges though. Jasper was clingy and hated being left alone. He would try to crawl after his mother every time she went out to hunt and it was hard work for her to hunt fast enough to be sure she had time to find him before he froze to death if he managed to wriggle his way out. As he got older, she was able to tell him to stay, but he didn't always listen.
It was after one of the times that he didn't listen that his mother came back from a hunt just in time to see a famished fox stalking her kitten. Sight turning red, Molly threw herself at the fox just as it in turn dove after Jasper. Caught up in the fox's jaws by his back leg, Jasper cried out as his mother scratched, bit, and beat on the predator. It still didn't let go, only biting down harder, until Molly's claws found purchase in its eye. It opened its maw to yelp, dropping Jasper, turned, and ran away.
Molly nursed her son back to health after realizing that one of his tiny leg bones had snapped in the fox's mouth. While she knew to keep him still, she had no other way to help him. His leg did keep him in their den for the rest of the winter though, which may have saved his life. When the bone had healed as much as it would, Jasper was taught to hunt, fight, and swim by his mother. No matter how hard he tried, he was never quite able to be as good as he thought he should be. His weak leg always held him back. Despite his disability, Jasper was usually always cheerful.
When his mother passed away in her sleep during his fourth autumn, he was able to mourn her passing in a healthy way. She had raised him to see the best in any situation and to never give up. While he tried to live by her ideals, he wasn't always able to be as eternally optimistic as she had been.
