Full name:
James Pleiades Hawkins, but everyone know him as Jim
Age:
23
Zodiac sign:
Pisces
Nationality:
Canadian
Looks:
He has a tattoo of his first guitar on his right wrist, with her name ‘Amelie’, and a tattoo of barbered wire on his upper left arm. He’s not really tall, something though that his old fans found cute, it was well marketed once he became a star and in any case for videos and concerts tricks are used to make him look taller. Still… he’s taller than most 16/17 years old girls…
Personality:
Due to the lack of approval and affection from his mother, who was the only family he had, Jim grew up starving for love and praises. Becoming a youtube-celebrity first and a proper celebrity then managed to fill a deep void in his life, and at the same time to create a dependency of the boy on his fans, reason why he always tried to show himself at his best, to please them in every way he could. On his youtube channel (as well as on his public appearances) he looked like an extrovert boy, playful and spontaneous, charming and cute at the same time. During his life, he has had only short relationships and flirts, and through that he gained the fame of being quite a heartbreaker, but of the ‘gentle’ kind: charming and sweet, but hard to reach on a romantic level. But is his public persona all there is to know about him?
History:
Medusa Hawkins was in her late twenties when she got in an affair with Jim's father: he was a quite important man, a very rich minister, he was already married but he was barely if ever with his wife. The story between them went on for several years... until Medusa got pregnant. She thought that, at that point, he would leave his wife and marry her. Instead he left her and got back to his wife. Still, even if pissed and heartbroken, Medusa decided to keep the child, expecting it to be a girl. With a girl, she would have been able to basically make her live the life she felt she deserved… instead, she got a boy. Jim. She still tried to make Jim into what she wanted but it just wasn’t the same. Jim did try to please her as a kid but he was never good enough for her. He knew Medusa loved him but still… she was never satisfied with him, she would always complain about him.
In school Jim managed to do fine, even if not great (and of course, that was reason of complains from his mother), but at least he managed to make friends, even form a band (that didn’t last long, but those guys remained his best friends). He wasn’t exactly a popular kid but he was content.
In 2007, when he was 13, Jim opened his first youtube account, to do what he liked most: sing and play guitar, but also play videogames. He even started his v-logs. It did take quite some time to gain a small following, but by the time he was 16 he had managed to gain quite some fame on the web, make quite some friends among the other youtubers, differentiate his channels and even making some money out of his views. When he was 17 he was noticed by a talent scout, who quickly turned him into a proper celebrity: his spent that year constantly on tour with his agent and it was basically thanks to the music company that he passed his school exam. The following year he could move out from his mother’s apartment and afford his own place. He had become more than famous, he was every girl’s dream and every ‘adult’ nightmare. Critiques hurt him more than he would admit, but he had his fans, and… feeling finally loved and appreciated, that was inebriating! He loved that, it felt like a drug!
Though his main job became being a musician and a star and he was quite busy with his schedule, he still continued running his channels (over the time he had opened 5, but he ended up keeping only 2 of them, the main one with songs, covers and v-logs and the gaming channel, that he was lately thinking of shutting down).
When the matchmaker kidnapped him he had just finished a tour in Los Angeles.
