- DISLIKES: reporters - disrespect in any form from those younger than him - computers - bratty kids - villains - his grief & temper - e-readers - change and/or anything new
- QUIRKS: Back in the day Jack was an extremely ill-tempered person--brilliant biochemist, but completely temperamental. Not only this, but he was kind of reckless. However, upon meeting and marrying his late wife, Marion Pinto, Jack calmed down and was better able to control the inner beast. Unfortunately, his wife passed away four years ago and it's unlikely he'll ever be completely over it. He suffers from takotsubo cardiomyopathy (broken heart syndrome) and has what appears to be congestive heart failure every year on the anniversary of her death. With some medication and rest he usually gets better in the following weeks.
Additional quirks are his absolute inability to take lip from any of the young avengers. He demands respect and no little punk is going to tell him otherwise. Normally he's a gentle and responsible teacher, but he is not above making punks do push-ups if they get too cocky.
[/classy] [classy=apphead]ORIGIN[/classy] [classy=blocktext] Back in the day Jack was a biochemist working on some questionable experiments. The government refused to promote the use of human experiments, so he decided to test it on himself at the age of twenty-five. Afterwards he experiences an increase in his strength, and the ability to change his physical form into that of a yeti-like creature. He wreaked havoc for a long time after the incident, because his already bad temper had gotten worse--but he was recruited by the Avengers. They partnered him with a female mutant with a great deal of mentality-based powers, including that of empathy. Her name was Marion Belrose and she spent a lot of time training him and teaching him to control his Yeti-form. She was the Ann Darrow to his King Kong. Around two years later they fell in love and married. Jack fought with the avengers for most of his adult career, but after the death of his wife he went on semi-retirement/hiatus and decided to teach at the academy.[/classy] [classy=apphead]SKILLS[/classy] [classy=listtext] - HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT: Jack knows several different types of physical combat. He is a black belt, and has participated in boxing for sport in his younger years. At his age he would be considered an expert in this field. It helps that he possesses unnatural strength, making his left hook one to avoid. In spite of his size and strength, he primarily applies his fighting to that of restraint and rendering someone else unable to fight. He does not use his combat skills to kill or maim, it's all about controlling your body so to keep the person alive, but subdued. [liststyle]#[/liststyle]
- EXPERT DRIVING: Jack actually took a stunt-man driving course after teaming up with the avengers so he knows how to drive fast and well so that he won't crash the car and kill every passenger. So, if need be, he's usually the one driving the getaway car. He has a license to operate almost every vehicle there is, including motorcycles.
- ARTILLERYMAN: He prefers not to use weapons of any kind, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to shoot a gun. He's an excellent shot, but has become a little rusty in his later years. He knows how to handle most rifles and handguns, and has once handled a bazooka (but is by no means an expert with that one). He finds that weapons these days are largely useless against some supers, but useful for other means. Regardless, he knows how to use some firearms.
- SURVIVAL SKILLS: He's been on plenty of missions in plenty of different settings, so he knows how to survive in freezing weather as well as boiling. He knows basic first aid for most injuries and can usually keep someone alive until more experienced help comes. He knows about how to keep up energy on low food and water supplies, as well as how to make a safe shelter in the wilderness. Camping is pretty hardcore with this guy.
[/classy] [classy=apphead]POWERS[/classy] [classy=listtext] - SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH: Without even transforming Jack possesses superhuman strength by some standards. He is able to lift a grown man with one hand and choke him out, if need be, as well as toss said grown man across a room. He works out on a regular basis and stays in fantastic shape in spite of his age. With some difficult he could lift a car if he really set his mind to it, but without transforming his superhuman strength is half of what it could be. [liststyle]#[/liststyle]
- BEAST TRANSFORMATION: Jack Pinto has another body altogether, this body is known as The Yeti. His hair becomes white as snow and he transforms into an 8 foot tall white-furred, ape-like creature, hence the name Yeti. The similarities between his form and that of the mythical abominable snowman are far to plain to see. Within this transformation Jack's strength is nearly doubled, his skin is thicker and he can absorb more damage than a regular human. Likewise his thick, white fur acts as insulation so he could survive in blistering cold winds without so much as a shiver. He possesses sharper teeth and claws in this form and can use those as well. Additionally, he has good climbing skills, like an ape.
