- Quick-witted and talkative, a problem-solver; especially Jared’s
- Occasionally likes to dance (his mother taught him classical dance)
- Likes old folklores legends and is fascinated by stories
- Very protective of those he cares about
- Big fan of soup
- His favourite color is blue
- Doesn't ever use his power
- Very close and protective of his twin
- Plays the cello
Firstborn of the twins, he always felt he had to protect Jared, even when Jared outgrew him in size (and his own size wasn't something to scoff at). He loves his mother and twin brother dearly.
He always has time for Jared - actually most of his time is dedicated to Jared, and never shakes him off when Jared is being physically clingy; he knows his younger twin can be a fretful mess of nerves sometimes, and needs the reassurance.
Neither of them has been in a romantic relationship, or has developed romantic feelings for anyone - they are not in an incestuous love relationship either. They’re perfectly content with each other’s brotherly company, but Jens is more open toward interaction with others. He'll generally nudge Jared to be social as well.
Jens is generally serious and thoughtful, seen as the smarter of the two, to complement his ''simpler'' brother. But he’s quite capable of being an idiot as well, which amuses Jared greatly when he gets to remind him of those instances.
When he was 18, he developed (at the same time as Jared) what he would privately call the ''bothersome wings of doom’’, which are shadowy tendrils he cannot control - He tried to get rid of them by cutting them, but it turned out to be impossible. His brother sealed them away, and they are never visible.

- Tries to be a wallflower despite his height
- His favourite colour is green
- Very shy when there is a lot of people
- More likely to act on impulses
- Jared is gentle, if centred around his twin
- Can eat for three
- Very clumsy and stutters when he talk
- Intelligent, but not keen on sharing it
- His wings are a source of comfort to him
- Loves his twin and always stick by him
- Self-deprecating, self-effacing
Jared is at his best when he’s alone with his mother and brother - because he’s not hindered by his shyness, and he stutters less (or barely).
He’s also very self-deprecating and self-effacing, preferring to hide behind his twin in all things; although it’s not very successful since Jared is taller, but he’s quite happy to let his brother shine enough for the both of them.
Jared generally doesn't like to be alone - but he also doesn't like to be with a lot of people. He generally clings to Jens, and they sleep in the same bed because of his clingyness.
Jared also inherited the same trait as his brother, giving him shadowy tendrils as wings that he can manipulate at will - ''retracting'' them and using the matter to make many things out of the shadow-like matter. He can also shift their density. He’s very good at controlling his powers, despite his usual clumsiness. Jared eats a lot because his power burns energy nearly constantly.
Jared generally doesn’t give a shit about when his wings are visible or not, so long as they don’t knock anything over. When they do, he ''scolds'' them harshly; they actually ''listen'' to him, to the astonishment of everyone else.
There's a total of 12 ''tendrils'', 6 on each side.
If he's not paying attention, the wing-tendrils just follow his instincts - as such, they frequently wrap loosely around his twin. But if he felt threatened, they'll cocoon him like an armor on instinct, with two remaining tendrils for defensive attacks.
