ABILITIES
Angelic blood empowerment: While all Shadowhunters have the angel Raziel's blood in them, the fact that he has even more, directly extracted from Ithuriel as a result of Valentine's experiments while he was still in his mother's womb, contributes to his superiority in certain fields and other enhanced aspects beyond the normal Shadowhunter parameters. He also has the ability to jump abnormally high.
Parabatai bond: Due to his parabatai bond with Alec Lightwood, Jace is able to call on more strength in battle. The runes drawn on him by Alec also give a considerably stronger effect.
Expert hand-to-hand combatant: Jace is highly skilled in armed and unarmed combat.
Expert swordsman: Jace is highly skilled and proficient in swordsmanship.
Early training: He was raised by Valentine Morgentern, who was one of the best Shadowhunters of all time. Valentine started training Jace as soon as the boy could walk and showed him no mercy. He trained him extremely well. This and the fact that he has more angelic blood than the other Shadowhunters, are the reasons that Jace is superior in battle, which, together with his beauty, gives him his confidence or even arrogance and sometimes makes him impulsive and reckless.
APPEARANCE: Jace is known for his good looks having fine, curly, golden blond hair, long eyelashes, and eyes that look gold in the light, due to the magical experiments performed on him and the angel blood in his veins. He has a slim, muscular build and is about 183 centimeters in height. His face is often described as being beautiful, sexy, gorgeous and angular and Clary often refered to him as beautiful and leonine. Like all other Shadowhunters, he is covered in thin, silver scars from years of applying various magical temporary runes as well as permanent runes that look like tattoos. Jace is also noted to be left-handed (like Valentine). He is said to look like his true father, Stephen Herondale, except around the eyes where he looks like his mother, Céline Herondale. He has a star-shaped birthmark on his left shoulder. He usually wears black clothing, or dark jeans and a grey shirt, almost always combined with a leather jacket.
RELATIONSHIPS: - Best friend: Alec Lightwood - Parabatai: Alec Lightwood - Romance: Not since Clary ran away with Simon
HISTORY: SHORT HISTORY: - womb. Injected with angelic blood. - early years. Born in Idris. Valentine had his parents killed and took Jace to raise him after faking his own death and that of his son, Jonathan Christopher (who he had injected with demonblood). The bodies he left were those of Michael and Jonathan Wayland. Valentine trained both of them without letting them know about eachother, hoping they would become powerful warriors. Jace was raised thinking he was Jonathan Wayland and his father was Michael Wayland.
Jace was raised by Valentine both lovingly and harshly:
He was raised and trained like a warrior, brought up strictly and with the occasional beating. Valentine instilled thoughts such as "to love is to destroy" into his mind. Once, Valentine gave Jace a falcon to train, intending it to be a killing companion, not a pet. After taming it, Jace showed it to his father who broke its neck, saying that he was supposed to train it to become obedient, not to love him. Nonetheless, Valentine treated Jace with some level of kindness, and despite the extremely disciplined upbringing, Valentine and Jace did share a few moments that a caring father-son relationship should have. When he was ten, Valentine realized that Jace was too soft for his plans and he needed to move on and get rid of Jace. To accomplish this, he yet again staged his death as Michael Wayland, with a hiding Jace there to witness his father "killed" right in front of him, convincing Jace and everyone else of "Michael's" death. Jace was later sent to the New York Institute to live with the Lightwoods, where Valentine knew Jace would be well cared for, as well as in a good position for possible reconnaissance at a later time. There, Jace was adopted by the Lightwoods. There, he got his nickname Jace from Maryse, after he told them that he thought his full name was Jonathan Christopher, which he had seen in Valentine's journal.
- 10 years. Adopted by the Lightwoods and met Alec. - 11 years. Became a Shadowhunter. - 12 years. Performed the Parabatai ritual succesfully with Alec Lightwood. - 17 years. Met Clarissa Fairchild, fell in love with her, was tricked into thinking he was her brother by Valentine. Heartbroken, Jace reverted to keeping his distance to those he cared about. - 18 years. Due to his disrespectful behavior towards the Inquisitor, Imogen Herondale, he was forced in jail in the Silent City. While in the cell, Jace suddenly heard the screams of the Silent Brothers which were caused by Valentine. After the slaughter of the Silent Brothers, Valentine visited Jace and told him that he had to kill them to get the Mortal Sword. The Inquisitor believed that Jace helped Valentine kill the Silent Brothers in order to get the Mortal Sword, however, now that the Sword was gone, they didn't know whether Jace was innocent or not. After a lot of debate they finally agreed to let Jace stay in Magnus Bane's apartment, in condition that a magical restraint be placed upon him. - 19 years. Had the Fearless rune drawn on him on a mission to save Simon and some other downworlders from Valentine, which made him even more reckless than he already was. Freed Ithuriel with Clary. Came to believe he had demonblood. - 20 years. Tracked down Valentine and his son. Found out he was the son of Stephen Herondale. Killed Valentines son. Later on, he found Valentine, who was ready to summon Raziel to destroy all downworlders. Valentine looked shocked when Jace told him that he killed Jonathan but other than that he didn't show any other emotion and before Jace could finish him off, Valentine stabbed him. Clary, upon witnessing all this, changed the ritual Runes, leading to Raziel answering to her and not Valentine. Raziel, knowing Valentine's motives, killed him and resurrected Jace by Clary's request. After the battle, Jace mourned Valentine's death. Afterwards, everyone celebrated their victory against Valentine's forces in what eventually became known as the Mortal War. Jace and Clary reformed their relationship, free to be together after all. - 21 years. With his death and resurrection, the magic that protected him from demon possession had faded. Jace got possessed by Lilith, a Greater Demon, who forced him to resurrect Jonathan. Jonathan prepared an army when Jace was taken care of and freed of Lilith’s possession. Johnathan started The Dark War, which Clary ended by killing him. - 22 years. Jace and Clary were voted Heads of the Institute. Jace proposed to Clary, who told him she had been having an affair with Simon (who was engaged to Isabelle) and disappeared with him. Leaving both Jace and Isabelle heartbroken. - 24 years. Head of the New York Institute. Too many Shadowhunters had fallen in The Dark War, so he called for help from Idris.
