Personality
Being from a poor background, Jeeves has developed into an extremely understanding and caring individual, who worries for the sake of all of his friends. While he was once loud, he has become quite the quiet figure, preferring to spend his days inside, sleeping, as opposed to being outside and making lots of noise.
His main trait is that of loyalty, as he will do anything for the sake of those that he is extremely close to, being Charon and Persephone. He holds an extreme undying loyalty to Charon, as their friendship has grown exponentially over the past few years. Around others, he still attempts to be warm and welcoming to them, and used to tend to scare people away.
Jeeves is extremely goofy, and will often make a fool of himself so that he can attempt to woo Persephone. While he will sometimes make honest mistakes and own up to them, he loves to joke around and have fun, believing that life would be boring without laughter.
Following his revival, Jeeves learned to truly appreciate the wonders of being alive, and will attempt to help anyone who wishes for death upon themselves. Growing into quite a mature figure when compared to the hyperactive boy that he once was, he is a friend to all who wish for his company.
Abilities
Piano;
Jeeves is exceptional at playing the piano, having done so from a very young age. His music is an inspiration to those around him, often helping in motivating those who aren't feeling too good. Originally, his piano was put to use in Hell, where he was a part of the orchestra.
Exceptional Combat;
While he does not possess a specific ability like most of the others, Jeeves excels in using a weapon in combat, having trained to do so while protecting Charon. He is extremely procifient with a blade, and has no problems with using one to assist those who he is with.
Weapons & Armour
Mournblade;
A golden sword, forged for Jeeves shortly after his arrival in Hell. This blade possesses great power, which means that only a truly trained swordsman can use it. This is no problem for Jeeves, who spent his life tinkering with swords. Upon his death, the blade was retrieved by Charon and Jeeves after Jeeves returned to life.
Wall of the Dead;
A battered shield which is almost the same size as Jeeves. He never uses anything else to block opposing attacks, as shown by the wear and tear of the shield. A few dents are present, but it still gets the job done. Forged in a combined effort by Charon and Jeeves to reward Jeeves for being Charon's only friend in his youth.
Armor of Relentless Whispers;
Armor fashioned just before Jeeves' revival. The armor does not impede Jeeves' agility at all, not weighing him down in the slightest. One special ability of the armor is that occasionally, the armor will glow, meaning that he has improved speed. However, it is such a hassle for him to find as it lives in Charon's closet.
Story
Youth;
Jeeves was born into a rather poor family, who were barely able to sustain for their own lives. They had not anticipated the birth of a child, yet they tried their best to support him through his childhood. While it meant an extra mouth to feed, they worked themselves as much as they could, to ensure that he had the best upbringing that he could. While he lived at home, Jeeves started to learn how to play the piano, a gift which remained with him through his life. The family piano was old and falling apart, yet the graceful fingers of the male had no problems with gliding along the keys, performing plenty of wonderful tunes that he would remember for the rest of his life.
However, dire situations at home resulted in Jeeves becoming quite the troublemaker at school. He would constantly show off in class to try and get attention, thinking that it would make him popular with the other children. After numerous run-ins with several authority figures, Jeeves eventually started to calm down a little, appreciating the quietness more. While in school, he was bullied frequently due to his name, with people always ordering him around to do their work for him. He never enjoyed school, but knew that he had to do his best to ensure a good education and future for himself, so that he could help his family.
Finding Love;
Jeeves started to enjoy his school life more when he encountered a lady named Persephone, whom showed him the wrong in his prior actions and helped him to become a better person. The two spend almost all of their time together, often finding themselves talking for hours on end withut any stops. It was a nice change for Jeeves, as he believed that she gave him everything that he could ever ask for. In exchange for Jeeves teaching her how to use a piano, Persephone taught him how to care for things, such as plants and animals.
With Persephone by his side, Jeeves gradually started to feel better about his life, despite the consistent problems that his family faced with money. While the bullying still persisted, Persephone did her best to protect him, much like he did for her whenever she got bullied. They did well to serve and protect each other, much like a couple should.
Prom;
One of the biggest days of Jeeves' life would be when he asked Persephone to come to the prom with him. While he was extremely nervous to ask her such a question, he was ecstatic to find out that she wished to go for him, and enrolled in dance classes so that he wouldn't look like a fool.
The night of the prom was one filled with anxiety and nerves, yet it went perfectly for the young couple. Dancing their way around the room, they were no longer the bullied couple who had suffered through their schoollives. Instead, they captivated the attention of everybody within the room, with Jeeves being praised for his dance moves. The two couldn't be happier with each other, and this night only made them closer.
Reckoning;
It was on Valentine's Day that Jeeves decided that he wished to take Persephone out on a boat, to celebrate their love together and have a good time. Having found a romantic cruise for the day that would only host plenty of other couples, it looked like everything would be perfect for them. His initial plan had been to propose to Persephone on this trip, as their love had blossomed into something wonderful. However, this proved not to be the case.
While standing with each other on one of the upper decks of the boat, a sudden collision with an iceberg caused the boat to start sinking, sending everybody onboard into an array of panic. While disaster struck, Jeeves did his best to keep a calm head, constantly reminding them that everything would be okay. As they reached the remaining escape boats, they were terrified to find out that there was only room for one more person upon the boat. While she pleaded that she did not wish to leave him, Jeeves refused to take the place, begging for Persephone to take the final space and return to safety. Despite her best efforts to stay with him, Persephone was unable to stay with him for any longer, and was forced to watch as Jeeves was engulfed within water, and sunk down to the floor beneath, meeting his untimely doom.
Revival;
After his death, Jeeves wandered around within Hell for quite some time, and ended up joining the main orchestra due to his piano playing. This earned him constant audiences with King Hades, who praised his playing and offered him a permanent spot within his orchestra, with the offer of money being sent to his parents under an anonymous tag. Jeeves was quick to accept such an offer, and found himself turned into a skeleton to fit in with the rest of those within Hell.
It was not long after his death that Persephone returned to the scene of his death and managed to revive him, causing mass confusion. As he woke, Jeeves found that he was unable to talk, the curse of being a skeleton. However, he was exceedingly happy to be reunited with Persephone, yet he had to continue to return to Hell, so that he could earn the money for his parents, which Hades never sent. Jeeves found himself unable to cope with the stress of going outside much, fearing that people would be intimidated by a skeleton, and tended to stay inside for most of his days.
Unfortunately, happiness was not meant to remain within Jeeves' life for long, as he was soon met with more heartbreak. He was present at Persephone's grand sacrifice, witnessing as she gave her life to protect the land. As much as Jeeves attempted to search for her in Hell, he was unable to do so, as his area of residence was strictly locked to the areas that Hades ruled over. He felt ever so crushed by her death, and dedicated every song that he played with the orchestra to her. Each year, on the day of Persephone's death, he would drag his piano up to the surface, and play a song to her in the middle of the night. This was his only way of communicating, so it was one of the only gestures that he could muster.
Charon;
One night, Jeeves was summoned to Hades' side, where he was asked to take care of a rather small boy who had been wandering around Hell for quite some time. While Jeeves did not recognise the importance of Charon at the time, and what he meant within the grand scheme of things, he was more than happy to act as a protector for the smaller boy. In turn, this was one of the best things to happen to Jeeves while he was in Hell, as he got to explore with Charon and show him everything that he knew. From spending time by the Rivers and generally just enjoying himself, it helped to fill some of the void that had been left by the death of his most beloved Persephone. Charon was one of the only people who was able to understand Jeeves, as he originated from Hell itself.
Reunion;
It was only many years after, when Charon started to summon Jeeves within the Milky Way Kingdom, that he was reunited with Persephone. While it was hard to believe at first, Jeeves had always held out on the hope that he would find her. His prayers were answered one night, when he found the ghostly apparition of his loved one within the castle, while he was still a skeleton. The two were not able to do much due to both of their conditions, but Persephone was able to understand him, due to her own status as a resident of Hell.
The two enjoyed what little time they got to share with each other, and Jeeves began to serenade her with his piano whenever given the chance. However, they had to be careful around Hades, as they could not risk him finding out about their past.
Revival;
Charon approached Jeeves one day with a revelation; that he believed he would able to revive both Persephone and Jeeves, as he understood how important they were to each other, and how much they longed for each other. While the resurrection was successful, this unfortunately led to Charon becoming tainted with the evil within the Underworld. Jeeves was entirely oblivious to this, as he was ever too happy to be reunited with Persephone in a physical form. They immediately left Charon behind and began making up for lost time, which involved lots of sleeping.
When Charon attempted a grand revolution upon the Kingdom, Jeeves and Persephone attempted to talk him out of it, resulting in Persephone being surrounded by the bullies who had tormented her in school. Thankfully, Jeeves was there to save her day, much like he had promised to protect her, so many years ago. While the two shared a quick moment, they were disheartened to find that Charon had been killed in the battle, which had been needed to stop the enemy forces from respawning. Wishing for him to return to their side, Sirius, Jeeves and Persephone bounded together to revive Charon, through the use of his obol.
Engagement;
On Jeeves' birthday the following year, he had decided he would go through with his plan from so many years ago. Knowing that he would be spending the day with Persephone by his side, he made the decision that he would propose to her, with nothing to stand in his way, except for the rage of Hades if he found out. Their day was pleasant, and topped off by Persephone agreeing to marry him. The two are currently planning for the wedding, which results in Jeeves sleeping a lot.
