Jasper

Jasper is a half-elf bard and a member of The Science Team.

Appearance
Jasper is described as exceptionally beautiful, with a well defined face and a lean yet sturdy frame. Since she draws her lineage directly into the Feywild, aspects of her appearance changes, similar to that of an eladrin. For example, her hair and her left eye will change colors depending on her mood: snow white when she is sad, summer sun yellow when angry, spring green when especially excited, and autumn orange when she is calm.

Additionally, Jasper is particularly into body modifications and piercings. She has numerous tattoos and earrings, two piercings on her right eyebrow and one on her lips. Most of them serve a practical purpose while others are there as a memorial of those who have been special in her life.

Jasper, being a performer first and adventurer second, usually wears elaborate costumes, even whilst in battle. However, recently she has acquired a set of Glamorous Studded Leather Armor, which fulfills the role of providing defense while also appearing suitably beautiful. She isn’t much of a fighter, though she is adept with a rapier, preferring to make the battlefield dance to her music with her mother’s violin.

Personality
Jasper has shown herself to be as turbulent as the seasons, rapidly changing through multiple moods during a short amount of time, only finding stability when she is safe in a town or a protected home. While she is the center of attention, she can be exceptionally artistic and energetic, putting on bedazzling performances. However, while traveling, she can easily become distressed and uneasy.

However, through her anxiety and turbulent personality, she always attempts to find a way to bring some amount of good to wherever she goes. Whether it be bewitching the mind of a local king to raising the pay of her new party-mates or healing them in battle, she does her best to have the people around her be protected from the same emotional struggle that she goes through.

Background
Jasper was found in Black Maw during Geran and Hellsing's tussle. She joined the group accidentally after they were called to meet with the King regarding the basilisk infestation.

While they were shopping in Black Maw, it was revealed that Jasper had a previous party, and she is looking for them. Apparently, Matt had recognized the fighter in her picture, but could only remember something about water when he saw him, which was before he joined The Science Team. Mel Lane, who was also there, recognized the paladin, who she saw about a week before in Pum Kin's Pets and Beasts, buying roughly three griffon eggs. The merchant, Thursday, had recognized the spellcaster, who was just bought some items from him a few days ago, preparing items for going into the desert.

While in Ballistan to cure Matt of his curses and his mind splitting into two, The Obsidian Mystic had arrived to threaten the party. Judging from Jasper's reactions, she has had some sort of background with the Mystic.

After returning to Largoon Vale, she spearheaded the interrogation of Nikola von Heinrich. She spilled a lot of emotion in this interrogation, and had revealed that Heinrich had also sent wendigos on her previous party, separating her from them.

Despite being in a depressed state after this, she was of great aid during the Siege of Largoon Vale, tricking an entire waves of battleships into leaving the battle after disguising herself as Nikola von Heinrich. She also reasoned with Scroon Tiny and Fynn Tear into leaving Largoon Vale after the siege.

After the siege, she went into the woods and summoned her "warlock" patron, not before accidentally finding Doc. Her patron is a large moth who has a somewhat condescending and silly personality. It was also revealed that her first relationship was with a halfling named Carl, she had another relationship with a tiefling named Avarice, and her last relationship was with a paladin named Elyra, who was part of her previous adventuring party.
