detailed personality:
LIGHTS! CAMERA!....Jonah?
That’s right folks, it’s the one and only Jonah Peirce. Son of the infamous but still famous Maxmillian Peirce. With a father this big, you can’t blame a guy for being a little big headed.
Seriously, for a moment, Jonah does love the spotlight, does love being in the lime lights, the center of your attention. Sure, he might come of as obnoxious, in your face, egotistical and much too confident for his own good. He’s a good guy though. It’s not like he is egotistical. He doesn’t think that he’s the best, he doesn’t think that everyone should be fawning over him all the time just because he’s Jonah Peirce. His head isn’t that fat. He’d rather be called a drama king. That’s all he really is. An aspiring actor bringing his trade home. Blowing things out of proportion is like his way of life. He loves making people laugh, even better when they actually believe him. He can fabricate the most elaborate lies in a blink of an eye and fool the smartest of people. Not like he enjoys tricking people. The worst thing he could do is hurt someone’s feelings. If he does, it literally rips him apart. He can’t stand being dishonest or lying for a wrong reason. Though this is true, it’s also true that he doesn’t seem to have a shred of self consciousness. He’s the most confident, seemingly put together teenager you’d ever meet. There doesn’t’ seem to be a chink in his armour. He can do anything without a thought, and he’ll say whatever he wants. There’s only a filter for rudeness. Jonah may be honest to a key, but he’d never be rude. He isn’t afraid of people getting the wrong assumptions of him. Anyone who makes assumptions doesn’t matter anyway, in his world. People who hate him for who he is and how he acts to. He really, honestly, doesn’t care what others think about him. Not a snob, but definitely not caring. Acting is his favourite past time. Not acting per say, more like acting goofy. Hard to explain in just words the way he is. He can walk around and just suddenly burst out with random facts, or just sing at the top of his lungs. He loves making faces and dancing around, playing air guitar, making a complete fool of himself. He doesn’t hold any of it back either. Putting a smile on people face is his life’s goal. He always has one on his face to. Sadness, well he hates it. It’s like a big dark cloud covering up your soul. Him and his almost overly sunny attitude and bounciness can be annoying, but you can’t be too serious of a person to hang around Jonah. He will stop acting like an idiot though, if you really ask him to. The one thing he really hates is being serious. Like he has to be anytime around his father or his colleagues. The entire situation makes him more uncomfortable then a goose in a pack of deer. The suits, the rules, the entire structure of the business world. He is much too much of a free individual for that. Even sitting in a classroom makes him twitch. School isn’t really made for Jonah anyway. Everything is much too linear. His lines of reasoning are more...random. He, mostly, links things to movies and characters and television shows. His supply of analogies to movies and television shows and books are endless. You’ll often hear him saying something along the lines of ‘oh like when this happened to this person in that one episode!” and not a single person will understand what he means or where he’s coming from. It makes sense to him though, and usually only him.

detailed history:
From the moment he was born, Jonah was a demanding child. Silence was not something you’d get with him at any moment. Always making odd little baby noises, or screaming his head of for attention, if nothing else. Jonah was the kind of temper tantrums when he was younger. Not a week would pass without at least one hissy fit. You could easily call him a brat. Honestly, he was while he was growing up. He just knew what he wanted and had to have it, no matter what. He really did believe the world revolved around him. It wasn’t any help that both his parents, being royalty in the world of media production, spoiled him rotten. He grew up eventually. Well, grew up in his own terms.

As mentioned, Jonah’s parents were royalty in the media world. Backstage anyway. Max Peirce is the head of one of the largest media business in all of North America, and Annette, by association, was a star as well. There was nothing to good for their one and only son. Jonah did always get what he wanted, even if he was quite the embarrassment at times. When he was older, his parents let him do whatever he wanted, usually just to busy to care. If he ever did get caught up in a bad situation though, his parents would just leave him to his own devices. He wasn’t that kind of idiot though, and crime just wasn’t his thing. But, if Jonah ever did get in trouble, he probably would be able to work his way out of it. From a young age, he always was an actor. So, from a young age, his parents enrolled him in the best of drama schools and classes, wanting to nurture their sons’ talent.

Though from the outside they seemed like a picture perfect family, you had to remember who Jonah’s father was. Any scandal or problem or embarrassing moment could easily be erased from the media, gone forever. Anything bad happen in the family, and no one would be the wiser. There was a nastier life under the fake perfection though. I wasn’t anything bad though. Jonah’s father was absorbed in his work, a complete workaholic. His mother, though kind and nice, always seemed a little distant. His parents fought as well, but nothing more then the average not so happy couple. But Jonah never seemed to mind. He was usually to wrapped up in his own little world to really care. Anyway, he was to upbeat of a kid to let stuff like that get him down. Sometimes, things would seem like they really were perfect. Like the times they would all go on a family outing and come back, smiling and happy. Remembering these times helped Jonah forget about anything bad that went on.

Jonah never was concerned in his fathers’ works. He hated media and all they stood for. To be honest, his father was a real low life. He’d go to any means to get a story, and wouldn’t lose a wink of sleep over ruining someone’s career. Jonah could never believe some of the things his father would do. He always tried to distance himself from his father, never getting involved in anything. He noticed the change in his father though. He was always absorbed in his work, but never so much as he suddenly got one day. Jonah could tell he had a huge story potential on his hands. Like usual, he just ignored him, not caring. But, his father just had to drag him into it. Jonah’s father was investigating this school. Supposedly, people from all over were going missing, just disappearing. There was always a story, but really, it was like they just disappeared. This school seemed to be the place that they had headed. His father felt there was a story to be found here. Usually, he’d just send some under cover reporters in, but for some reason, he wanted to send Jonah. Jonah, of course, absolutely refused. He was never going to a little pawn of his fathers, he’d never work for him. Jonah’s father was persistent. First he bribed him. He told Jonah that if he succeeded in finding the story behind this school, he would pay for the collage of his dreams. The collage Jonah had been saving up for since seventh grade and had barely made have the tuition money for a year yet.. Jonah, thinking this a bluff, still refused. Then his father turned to threats. He told Jonah if he didn’t cooperate, he’d make it so the only place he could work the rest of his life would be a McDonalds. He’d make it so he’d never be able to get into any drama school out there. He would ruin his life. This was just to much. Jonah could stand the thought. He didn’t know what he wanted to be, but he knew it was not working at McDonalds. He knew he needed to be out there somewhere, in the spot light. This finally made him accept, grudgingly. As a going away/thank you gift, his father dumped a cat from the ally’s that was so sick and thin Jonah was sure it was going to die. Then he just carted him off to Lunar Academy.
