Jackson Cunningham is a Magician in Qandela: Obscura that is part of the Circle of Shade and Sinew. They are played by Amia. They first appeared in the Guest Mission "An Apple A Day," and made their first main story appearance in "Marionette."
Physical Appearance
Jackson is a medium-build, slightly lanky 6"0 Caucasian man. They tend to make an effort to look extremely put together and clean, but with a little bit of an edge to it, often wearing a white button down shirt and khaki pants with a black belt, black dress shoes, and a black coat. However, their facial hair is a little bit untamed, and their hair is short, brown, and messy, often swooped back behind the ears.
Personality
Lie. Until it gets better? Follow the king of the masquerade.
Jackson was known to be impressively bipolar depending on whether they're in the spotlight or helping others to shine. In their normal life, they are a consummate coward, prioritizing their own skin. However, when given the chance to prove themselves, and especially to cause chaos, a passionate glint and a devilish grin spread across their eyes and face, and there's NOTHING they won't do.
In time, with working in Candela, this rift between cowardice and recklessness has slowly blended into a stand-up righteous
History
C'mon, c'mon, a monster masquerading!
[AWAITING APPROVAL]
Silver Screen Record
It was revealed in the mission "East Hills" that Jackson is a somewhat prodigy of a stunt actor, something he keeps very separate from his work in Candela. The experiences he had in the film industry have caused him to irreparably keep his cards close to his chest, both from the characters he's played and the traumas he's faced.

Campaign History
The curse of reuniting with you puts a dagger in my heart.
Jackson Cunningham's first appearance was in the mission "An Apple A Day," run by Anna. Having already experienced their catalyst, Jackson, who is short on work, gets an offer from their agent to perform for people at the Newfaire Hospital. Skeptical, but broke, they take up the gig, and are immediately swept into a whirlwind of animated mannequins, eldritch horrors, Bleed, Flare, and every Investigator's beginning facts alongside Gertrude and Ginny. Jackson remained a skeptic up until Gertrude's magick slipped, and awakened The Beast. When Gertrude was dead to rights, Jackson's devilish bravery kicked in, and they charged to attempt to save them, trying to trade their life for hers. Miraculously, they both lived to tell the tale, and Gertrude officially initiated them into The Circle of Shade and Sinew, as well as initiating them as their boyfriend.
Jackson appeared next in the mission "Marionette," run by Matt. A week after the events of "An Apple A Day," Jackson received a mysterious call asking for help to protect Dottie Wells from lawful persecution, so that Candela could gain knowledge from an investigative journalism report they wrote about Bleed. Though they didn't feel up to the task, Jackson accepted, meeting up with Gertrude, Feyre, Mocking-bird, and Percy. Though the scene is grisly, the group eventually manages to make enough progress to track Dottie down, and with Jackson and Percy's smooth tongues, they manage to keep her calm and agree to help her escape. However, an organization of shadowy figures comes to kidnap her, and though the crew tries to pull out all the stops, including a high-octane car chase, mortal capabilities combined with a myriad of flashbacks to Jackson's past gigs as a stuntsman, they manage to kidnap Dottie. The group regroups at the South Soffit Diner, exchanging information while plotting about their next move.
Jackson's next appearance was in the mission "When It Got Weird," ran by Matt, where he was formally recruited by Jacen Beck into his gym after the events of this mission. The group was dispatched to meet up with Nesta Acheron, who had discovered changes in the manuscripts written by Lincoln Renfield, namely that the Table of Contents was out of order. The party was sent into the manuscript in order to try and get the order straught

Relationships
It's better to be a let-down than to be let down.
Ginny Eldermourne - Stranger
"Their knowledge is apt, and they led me through the darkness. I would be a fool to not trust someone otherwise."
Gertrude Clyde - Lover
"She showed that magick was real, and I saved her life from a hulking zombie-beast science experiment inside a derelict hospital. The perfect meet-cute, if you ask me."
Feyre Acheron - Rival
"They're talented. They're thorny, and hard to work with, but they're talented. I just wish they wouldn't be so condescending."
Percy Montgomery - Coworker
"They'll take a ruse to their grave. Not many people would do that. I'm not saying I would do that. I'm also not saying it's the smart thing to do, but it's...admirable."
Mocking-bird - Mentor
"They taught me to keep my head up, and fight. By punching me repeatedly during boxing spars. Pain is a good teacher."
