Jules Knightley is a vigilante and hero from New Chiti, having formerly worked at Valiente & Knightley. She's well known for her armor, custom-made after a particular incident in which she was attacked in the courtroom, forcing her to use her mark to defend herself. She's unwavering in her vision of justice, going to far lengths in order to bring what she believes is her vision of peace to New Chiti. Her new set of armor, however, is not currently associated with her true identity.
Career
Valiente & Knightley
Jules was one of the two main firm partners in Valiente & Knightley, partnering up with Val to try to bring some justice to New Chiti. Being in New Chiti, she frequently needs to bend the law in order to ever get anywhere. Criminals around Pawny all know that when she's involved with a case, it'll take quite the force to keep her from getting her justice. However, her insistence on justice and the lengths she will go has made her a controversial figure to some. Some see her as a slimy lawyer, others see her as an actual force for good. Her employee and private investigator for the firm, Ripley Pond, commonly helps her on her cases. The Godot Family are her biggest opponent, and the syndicate she wishes to take down the most.
Personal Life
Not much is known about Jules's personal life, other than her having a nice apartment in New Chiti, and how she used her money to help pay off her parents' house.
Abilities and Gear
Judge, Jury, and Executioner
Jules's mark allows her to summon a saber composed of a golden handle and a blade of red light, known as Conviction. On Conviction, two scales exist, one facing Jules, and one away. The scales' tilt determines the strength of Conviction, and at its extremities, JJE can either boost Jules's physical strength or weaken it. At the positive extremity, Conviction can cut through practically anything, at its weakest, it's practically a 50lb pool noodle. The conditions for what exactly makes the scales tilt are kept secret.
Note: The blade's light itself doesn't actually extend outwards like it does in the original ref. It's more like a lightsaber and the former fic writer who popularized the incorrect design has been lambasted by the public and temporarily shamed off of Mo3.
After the RAGE Truck Raid Incident, she and Val are no longer working together, with Jules making a larger focus on her life as a vigilante, changing her armor and adopting a harsher view of what she needs to do.
Knight's Armor
Custom-made by Lady Blanche, Jules used to white armor with a gold trim, similar to what a knight would wear. It's quite lightweight, but still remains quite protective.
It was then modified by Teagan Hoover, who gave her a new helmet with a voice changer, as well as a new coat of paint, with a taser, propulsion on the boots, knockout gas, and an attachment to change the color of Conviction and hide the scales.
Trivia
| Notable Relationships | |
|---|---|
| Ripley Pond | SCALES: TILTED FARTHEST RIGHT
Jules sees Ripley like a younger brother, and is one of her closest friends and confidants. One of the only people to know the extent of how far Jules has gone for her pursuit of justice. Tries to support him whenever she can. She believes he should try and distance himself from her, believing she would drag him down. |
| Clockwork Owl | SCALES: TILTED HARD RIGHT
She knows who the Owl actually is. She knows some of what she's struggled with, and considers her a friend. She never actually hated the Owl or what she did, honestly, unlike Ripley and Val. But, it's that same care for the Owl that partially led to Ripley turning on Jules. |
| Valentine Valiente | SCALES: TILTED FARTHEST RIGHT
Her ex firm partner. She does still deeply care for him, but she knows she can't go back. Not now. |
| Arthur Quinn | SCALES: TILTED SLIGHTLY RIGHT
He's useful. Someone like him is made to be bent and used to get information. |
| Lady Blanche | SCALES: TILTED HARD RIGHT
Her most trusted confidant and closest friend on base. And at this point, probably in general. |
| Midas | SCALES: TILTED RIGHT
It's odd, truly. For a mob boss who has killed people, you'd think she'd be less understanding. Yet, she does see a lot of herself in him, and wants him to get off of the path of destruction before it kills him. |
| Sisyphus | SCALES: TILTED HARD LEFT
Hatred. Pure hatred. In her head regularly wonders if it's worth it to just chop his damn head off. She blames him for so much. So much shit that has gone wrong recently she blames him for. In her mind, she dedicates so much to justice. So much to getting rid of people like him. And yet, here he stands, supported. He needs to burn. |
| The King of Hearts | SCALES: BALANCED
Her housemate in 3 Aurora. Doesn't yet know about him being a criminal, but if she did, her opinion of him would tank quite a bit. |
| Henrik Rosen | SCALES: TILTED HARD LEFT
Absolutely despises him. |
| Godot | SCALES: TILTED FARTHEST LEFT
Her largest enemy. She wants to find them and bring them to justice no matter the cost or the methods required. After learning they got the remaining three cases of CY-009 materials from the Apopkan police, is in more of a frenzy to catch them. |
