Personality:
Jesse is intense, talented, tactless, and occasionally overdramatic. Essentially, a male equivalent to Rachel Berry. He is incredibly driven to musical success and hopes to one day be a famous performer. He will stop at nothing until his goal is accomplished, even if it means stepping on toes and breaking hearts (except Rachel’s). He comes across as vain, conceited, harsh, arrogant, dismissive, and rude. Though deep down, he seems to be a good guy with a caring personality.
History:
Jesse was acting, singing, and dancing at a very early age. His drive to succeed made him the favorite of his parents (which may r may not have led to his brother's addiction or his sister's bulimia). He went through Elementary and Middle School performing at any chance he got. Though he was not the best at academics, there were always plenty of volunteers to do his homework. In his freshman year at Carmel High Schoool, he established himself in Vocal Adrenaline. He quickly became the star of the group, and gladly proved he was better to anyone who challenged his talent. In his Sophomore year, he had a relationship with Giselle, another Member of Vocal Adrenaline. Because they were both performers, they clicked well and were friends. They got intimate but as competitions grew near, Jesse realized he could not let feelings get in the way of his performance and the two agreed to break up, though stayed friends. The two took Vocal Adrenaline to win Nationals for three years in a row. However, during his seniour year, things changed. He firt met Rachel in a music store where he finds they not only have the same love of Lionel Richie, but the same love of music and the same desire to win as well. Shortly after, they begin dating, though not everyone approves. Because Jesse is in Vocal Adrenaline and Rachel is in New Directions, his motives are questioned. Of course, this was for good reason because the New Directions director, Shelby had told him to get close to her. Still, Jesse assures Rachel he would never hurt her, but they decide to keep their relationship a secret. After they try to make love, but Rachel decides against it at the last minute telling Jesse she didn’t want to “sleep with the enemy.” To show his devotion to her, he moves in with his uncle and transfers to McKinley High. Needless to say, not everyone was thrilled. They had a happy and open relationship until Rachel made her “Bad Reputation” video and triple-cast him with Finn and Puck. He is hurt because he had given up everything to come to McKinley and be Rachel’s one and only, he felt he did not seem to be enough for her. Later, he helps Rachel find her biological mother, who was Shelby, the director of Vocal Adrenaline, who only wanted Jesse to get closer to Rachel so that she could get closer to her. Once Rachel and Shelby, who was Rachel biological mom, met, he went back to Vocal Adrenaline, though he truly cares for Rachel. He transfers back to Carmel High and Vocal Adrenaline, feeling he was misconsidered at McKinley High. Vocal Adrenaline eggs Rachel, and though Jesse is guilty and hurt, he reluctantly goes along. New Directions extracts their revenge when they show Jesse and the rest of Vocal Adrenaline that they can do a Funk number. This depresses Jesse. Vocal Adrenaline defeats New Directions and comes in first at Regionals, though Jesse still cares for Rachel and feels guilty about what happened, never being able to keep his eyes off of her in the competition. Jesse graduates and goes to UCLA where he has a free ride. However, he soon flunks out, thinking he does not have to attend classes and will receive an Asian student to do his work for him. Unable to stay away, he goes back to Lima to see Rachel. He wants to apologize for what he did to her and takes her to prom. The two reconnect, though Finn disagrees and the two get into a fight. He becomes New Direction’s new consultant and gives them tips to defeat Vocal Adrenaline. He disagrees with their helping with Sue’s sister’s funeral because it’s a distraction from Nationals. He then helps Mr. Schue judge the auditions for the soloist at Nationals. He tells Mr. Schue that they will win with Rachel as their lead, but Mr. Schue does not take the advice. He and Rachel meet in the auditorium where he tells her that the reason he came back to Lima was for her. They kiss. He texts her a lot when New Directions go to New York, but understands when Rachel tells him she does not want any distractions while at Nationals. Still, he finds he can’t stay away and comes to New York anyway, though whether or not it was the show or Rachel he could not stay away from he never says. It was probably a bit of both. He is incredibly impressed by Rachel’s performance, but becomes shocked and infuriated when Finn kisses her on stage and costs them the competition. After Nationals, he goes back to Ohio, and is currently working as a freelance Show Choir Consultant.
Short rp Sample
The curtains opened, and there was a pause before the lights came up. the first few notes of the intro started, and already Jesse St. James had his show face on. This was it. This was what set him apart from the rest. And this was why Vocal Adrenaline were going to win tonight.
He began his performance with the same passion he would end it with. He channeled all the hurt, angst, guilt, and love into his voice as the rest of Vocal Adrenaline danced and sang, complimenting him. Helping him blow the judges out of the water. After all, he was the star.
As he sang his heart out and danced as he had never danced before, he hoped she was watching. Because she needed to see what she would be missing. Needed to see exactly whose heart she had broken. Still, Jesse wasn't worried. Why would he be? She would be his again sooner or later. After all, he was Jesse St. James.
