jan has many faces, but his “neutral” form is a sexless, blank canvas like an unfinished waxwork. he is experiencing a unique form of identity crisis in that he never really had a strong sense of who he was from birth in the first place. as a substitute, he creates identities for himself to pick up and drop as he pleases. though he is aware of his status as a supernatural, and embraces his abilities in private, he is more closely attuned to humans and hunters as he finds that, most of the time, they are easier to deceive and thus exist around. jan takes pride in his abilities as an actor, a performer, a charlatan and a deceiver, and aims to explore how far these talents can take him in life. he fears, however, that one day he will lose himself in his masks and never uncover his real self.

although janus has no need for actual clothing, he typically likes to appear wearing slightly baggy, unassuming clothing in neutral colours: casual wear or a plain suit, unless a particular “role” requires him to present himself in something bolder.
transportation[/color]:;[/b][/size]
currently none of his own - walking and public transport give him better opportunities to encounter and study new faces

locating jane doe

background[/color]:;[/b][/size]
a lot of jan’s earliest life is based on his own assumptions. he likes to think that, at birth, the reason he became separated from his biological parents is because he shifted into the appearance of a different child in the hospital and was taken home as an error in registry... or something. from there, a series of rejections from his parents and subsequent shapeshifts brought him to homeslessness. police arrest and foster care where he met the girl who would come to name herself jane, who shared a similar life to his own. in time, they became extremely close, growing together as kindred spirits where there was no blood to tie them. jane was wild and restless, having moved through numerous foster homes with countless arrests on her record while jan was frustrated by his abilities and made every effort to stay in one consistent shape so as not to spoil his relationship with jane by frightening her. this, in turn, made him restless and aggressive and got them both thrown out onto the streets by their foster parents.
jan and jane threw themselves into a life of petty crime together, befriending street gangs, committing theft and burglary. it wasn’t long before a break-in was botched and jane accidentally killed the resident defending his home. with blood on her hands, jane hid within the street gangs for protection and began taking more serious jobs from them, committing acts of violence and injury. when she started racking up further kills, jan began to be concerned for their safety as well as for the mental well-being of his friend. nonetheless, he followed behind her as he always did, picking up weapons training where he could so as to defend himself and aid jane wherever possible.
when the day came that jane was apprehended and placed under arrest by the police, jan fled and hid beneath a different face to evade capture. having lost the closest thing he has to family, to a piece of himself, he sought information about jane’s whereabouts. law enforcers would not answer his questions at the local police station, so jan infiltrated their building using the face of one officer after another but the only information he could gather was that jane was not held in any of the jail cells and police records came up blank following her arrest. he wasn’t even sure if she was still in london - she had just... vanished. setting off on his own, jan now makes use of any contacts he can find and every power in his ability to find further information on the location and condition of his friend and kin.
