Backstory

The broken skateboard in her garage became a symbol of her unspoken regret - a relic from the summer she deliberately sabotaged her best friend's competition chances out of toxic jealousy.

Her inner guilt from that skateboard incident never truly faded, instead transforming into a complex need to simultaneously protect and challenge those closest to her, creating a volatile emotional landscape where her protective instincts battled her deeply ingrained competitive streak. Behind her intimidating exterior, Jade harbored a secret passion for vintage mechanical engineering, meticulously restoring old motors in her mother's garage - the one space where her carefully constructed tough-girl persona completely dissolved.
