Name: Jack
Aliases: The Headless Horseman. The Legend of Sleepy Hollows. The Dullahan. The Pumpkin King. The H.H (shorter version for Headless Horseman).
Race: Dullahan
Abilities: Jack being a Dullahan can never be killed by decapitation, because he can 'live' without a head. Also like a Dullahan he can't be harmed by regular means, and only through spiritual means.
Jack is also supernaturally strong able to hold his ground against more powerful foes, such as a wendigo and high powered oni.
He's also able to conjure up pumpkin bombs that can either blow up or explode into flames. He also usually summons pumpkin bombs in his hand to throw at his foes.
Jack is able to summon, and de summon his ghost horse, Brom Bones. He can also summon his axe, he affectionately calls Tracey.
Personality/appearance: Jack is described as being a very enthusiastic and mellow individual. He also likes to sometimes make morbid jokes about his head and other macabre things, though his friends are used to this sort of thing as of now.
Jack wears a black looking knight armor with a red cape billowing from the back. He wears no helmet, because he has no head. He usually dons this form, with his horse to make himself look badass.
In his 'disguise' form he wears the same hessian uniform, when he was still alive. He also has brown hair, and orange eyes.
Possessions: Jack possesses an axe that is capable of cutting through very tough metals. He wields this axe and uses it to decapitate and slice through his opponents. His axe was enchanted by his friend Masud so he can channel his spiritual power into the axe.
Backstory: Before Jack was alive, he originally served as a hessian trooper and fought alongside the British during the American Revolution. However, he was killed in the battle of White Plains, when a cannonball shattered his head. His body was buried in the cemetery of the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow.
Jack returned to the land of the living as a Dullahan, and tried to go after his missing head for the last 20 years, but gave up afterwards. He accepted his unlife as a being without a head.
In the early 1800s, Jack ends up confronting the wendigo, Catori Valencia in a fight between two legendary creatures. The two of them fought each other for almost an entire day, but ultimately ended up in a tie, after the both of them were exhausted in fighting each other. A full week later, the dullahan would meet the wendigo once again, but this time with no ill intentions toward each other. They both respected each other's strengths, and this led to them becoming friends with each other.
In the late 1800s, Jack and Catori decided do travel to Europe, because the two of them wanted to see several famous spots there. During their trip in Greece, they ran into the ruins of a Greek temple, where they meet and fight against the legendary gorgon, Medusa. After the fight, the two of them convinced their fellow monster that they weren't there to hurt her, but were traveling all over Europe. Medusa ends up joining the two of them on their journey, because she is interested in seeing how the world was like now, and to see other countries besides Greece.
The now party of three, then head to Egypt to see the Pyramids of Giza. While there they end up meeting the youkai magician, Masud Akh. Masud was able to sense that they didn't hold any animosity toward him, so he had a friendly attitude towards them. As a show of good faith he even invited them into his home the Crypt of Alexandria, which they accepted, because the party of three wanted to take a break from all the traveling.
In the next few days, as Jack, Catori, and Medusa were packing up to go travel throughout Europe, Masud decided to join along with them. The Egyptian magician explained that he did so, because they were his first friends in a while, and also because he wanted to go see how Europe has changed, while he was always kept in his home.
The now party of four started to travel around Europe once again, but this time using Masud's home as transport. The crpyt was installed with several powerful teleportation talismans to make traveling easier, and a cloaking talisman to keep itself hidden from unwanted visitors.
In the late 1900s, the party of four caught wind of Gensokyo's existence, after they met a youkai who told them that she was invited to go to the place. After hearing this the four of them decided to travel to the land of illusions. The Crypt of Alexandria makes its last and final trip to Gensokyo.
During the dragon incident, Jack, Catori, Medusa were members of Team Alexandria led by Masud. Later on in the incident Wakasagihime, Sekibanki, and Kagerou Imaizumi also joined the team as well.
In the present day, Jack hangs still hangs out in the Crypt of Alexandria, but will sometimes go to the human village, but donning his 'human' form.
Relationships:
Catori Valencia: Jack and Catori were originally enemies in the past, but became friends later on. Jack occasionally spars with the Wendigo to make sure his and her skills don't rust. Jack also has a crush on Catori, but he ain't telling her, yet.
Medusa: (best friends)
Masud Akh: Masud is Jack's friend whom allowed the dullahan to stay in his home. The Egyptian magician also was the one who enchanted Jack's axe as a gift for being his friend.
Sekibanki: Sekibanki is Jack's biggest fan, because she admired the dullahan's tale of Sleepy Hollows. The rokurokubi first met the dullahan, when she was hanging around the edge of a forest near the Human Village. The two of them ended up befriending each other, after the meeting. Sekibanki hangs out with Jack either in the Human Village or in the Crypt of Alexandria.
Brom Bones: is the same horse that Jack used when he was alive and also died alongside him, after he was killed. The horse itself became a ghost like the dullahan. Jack can summon Brom Bones at anytime and anywhere, if he feels like it.
