Chaotic Good - Combines a good heart with a free spirit

He loves to be the center of attention. He's the first one to do something stupid for laughs. He enjoys impressing people with his wide array of talents and never shies away from praise. He's tactful and good with words, able to flatter and impress easily. He has a kind heart, but he looks out for number one the most and can appear heartless. He's quick to react to things and jump to conclusions. He tries to keep his promises but he's not very good at it because he's easily distractable. He also finds it hard to admit when he's wrong.

Lei Li Jie was born to loving parents two years after his older sister. They had a happy and healthy childhood and had every luxury their modest family could afford. He could do no wrong in the eyes of his parents and got away with a lot more than any little boy should. But when he was 4-years-old, his parents were in a terrible auto accident that left he and his sister orphaned. With no other family in Hong Kong, they were filed into the system. There for almost six months, they clung to each other and weathered the uncertainty. Li Jie was too young to understand what the rammifications were, but his older sister feared they would be separated.

Luckily, they were soon adopted by a childless couple in Salinas, California. Lauren and Bradley, unable to have children of their own, had adopted the siblings together, not wanting to separate them. Li Jie was called Jaxon and they moved his Chinese name to be his middle name. His sister they called Sabrina and their former surname was changed to Sparks. It was a confusing and emotional time for Jaxon and he would often go to his sister in the middle of the night for comfort. She would tell him stories of their parents in their native tonge and that continued for years until he felt too old to be going to her for comfort.

He picked up on English quickly and there was no trace of an accent once he entered school. He was a bright boy, but his attention was never for the academic. He wanted to be outside, playing and moving. Confining him to a classroom for so many hours a day did nothing for his attention span. He excelled in sports, whichever one he decided to pick up in any given year, but barely scraped through school by the skin of his teeth. By the time high school graduation came around and it was time for college, he reluctantly enrolled in Hartnell College to get a general start on his education, with plans to move to a 4-year school once he'd decided on a major. He had his eye on nursing, but in the end it proved to be too much for his wild spirit.

After his failed attempt at school and his parents' ultimatum that he get a job or move out of the house, he decided to do both. He moved to San Francisco and within a week had secured a job with the fire department. He became an H-2 Firefighter after completing the fire academy training and continued to rise in ranks. He moved from his initial firehouse in Castro, Engine 6 to Engine 22 in the Sunset District to his current firehouse, in the Marina District, Engine 16.

There have been many struggles over the years since his tenure with the fire department, especially when he has lost victims to fires he wasn't able to pull them from, or buddies he worked with perished in the line of duty. One particular incident left him with PTSD and station ordered therapy, the therapist of which he continues to see to this day.

A few years ago, Jax thought he was ready to settle down and start a family like his sister had done. His sister was always the smarter of the two of them and had a picturesque life. His parents never said "why can't you be more like your sister?" but he always felt that when they would talk about their children to their friends or family. So he decided to pop the question, even though he wasn't really ready for that kind of committment. After several months, a little wedding planning and talks about the future, he panicked and called it off.

A year ago, his father's health started to fail, so his recently divorced sister moved to the West Coast with her two children to be with them. He has loved having them closer and is ever the doting uncle. Now he's creeping up on his mid-thirties and still acts like a teenager. Whether he will ever grow up is yet to be seen.
