Johnathon

Johnathon 'Zach' Black (also known as Johnny, John) is the High Guard of KingdomsVille and a strong member of the Army of Claws. He is a Dragonstone Warrior, one of the strongest warriors that hails from The End, who has been trying all his life to avenge the deaths of his sisters. He is the twin brother of Zara, and the only son of Sir Draxen.

Biography
Johnathon first appeared in S1, E1. He was there supposedly to attack Kelsey for being on sacred ground, which is the battle site of the war she was involved in. They fight for a moment before Johnathon realizes that she may be the answer to the prophecy given by Sing-Along. He then asks for her to let go of him, and formally introduces himself with a bow, explaining the prophecy and taking her back to his home village, KingdomsVille.

In Episode 6, it is confirmed by Sing-Along that Johnathon is a Dragonstone Warrior, as he begins to transform at the end of Episode 5 due to Sing-Along mentioning that it was a Full Moon outside.

in Episode 8, he is seen sitting on a rock outside Kelsey's new home in KingdomsVille. Seemingly depressed, Kelsey tries to cheer him up after explains that he escaped the chains Sing-Along used to hold him down as a Dragonstone warrior. He then perks up, offering to take Kelsey back to Sing-Along's observatory so they can perform the Ritual of Leaders and make sure she keeps that place. He then mentions it gives him something, other than an entire village, to protect since the death of his siblings. He says this is because he was older than all of his sisters, and they looked up to him as a mentor and a leader, and not just as their 'big brother.'

Appearance
Johnathon is a sleek black cat with a white face, paws and tail tip, along with bright orange hair that slightly covers over his right eye. He is normally seen in a brown cloak with a blue diamond-like marking embedded on the back. He appears to wear pants made of steel, and a flat gray shoes. A hole has been cut into the hoodie so his tail can be visible. He is noted for his fluffiness, not just in his hairstyle.

When he transforms into a Dragonstone Warrior, everything white in his fur changes to dark grey. His black fur transforms into a dark purple. The top part of his cloak stays on his head, while the rest changes. He appears to wear a short-sleeved red shirt with black markings, and black pants that end just above his ankles. His shoes disappear. He wears a red sash-like attire with a red belt and a black amulet connecting all the lines. He grows purple scales that stretch from the top of his head down his back over his tail, which is transformed into a black dragon's tail. He grows small purple wings with dark-purple skin on the insides. His fangs grow roughly an inch larger than they are normally, almost enough that they wouldn't be able to fit in his mouth. The sclera of his eyes changes to a lavender color, and the iris transforms from bright green to an almost magenta color. His nose and the insides of his ears stay bright pink.

Personality
Johnathon is fairly formal, and very gentlemanly around women. He loosens up a little when around boys, considering they understand him a bit more than most girls can. He is mostly seen as the overprotective type, because he stands so close to certain people, just to make sure he can defend them from danger at any given moment, and has even been known to jump in front of people and take a potentially fatal blow from the enemy, along with cutting the attacker near the ankles, causing them to trip, and run away. He is very skilled in battle with both long range and melee weapons, and has been known to punch holes through hard stone walls if angered badly enough.

As a Dragonstone Warrior, he is seemingly heartless. He goes to very extreme risks to attack anything and everything he sees in a quick, savage manner. He doesn't care who he hurts, and who gets hurt or killed. He only cares about serving his queen, and doing what the voices in his head tell him to. However, he can become weakened when attacked near the head, face and neck. If he cares deeply enough about someone, his eyes will suddenly revert back to their normal colors, and he will be forcefully transformed back to normal, which causes him to black out since it's so sudden.

Trivia

 * Johnathon's name is a Hebrew baby name. In the American version of the name, a person of that name was noted for his manliness, generosity and unselfishness. This resembles Johnathon perfectly as he never wants to care for himself, rather he wants to protect other people, and he lets most people go first or do something they actually want. He is noted as one of the manliest characters in the series, the second best being Dexter.
 * Another definition of the name is that people with it have a deep inner desire for order and physical creativity. This also represents Johnathon in a way, as he prefers things to be in a perfect order and with decent ruling, along with letting people express their feelings through physical activity.
 * In the 'Beta' episodes of the series, Johnathon was the first character to kiss Kelsey . This does not interfere with the canon series, as Johnathon will only go as far as flirting rather than physical contact with a person in a manner that is any more than friendly.
 * In the 'Beta' Episodes, none of Johnathon's sisters had names.
 * Johnathon's birthdate is the only thing confirmed about his birth, the day is unknown, but it is speculated that he is around the same age as Kelsey. This was also shown in Kelsey's reference sheet for the characters during the 'Beta' stages as Johnathon was a year younger than Kelsey, which would last until Season 4 of the series, where he would have a birthday episode. It has not been confirmed if this same thing will happen in the series to confirm his age.
 * Johnathon had a brother in the 'Beta' episodes and only 6 sisters . Zara replaced the brother Johnathon was meant to have, making him now have 7 sisters, but only one had a name.
 * In the 'Beta' episodes, Johnathon had been the High Guard of KingdomsVille for three years. It is unknown how long he has had the position in the canon story.
 * In the 'Beta' episodes, Johnathon only swore once, despite he was not technically old enough to. In the canon story, Johnathon only swears via the cat language Catari.
 * At the ending of the 'Beta' episode "The Letter," Johnathon said he was going to resign from being the High Guard of Kingdomsville . To the canon story, this wouldn't make sense since Johnathon has said he wants to protect his town at all costs, therefore he would never give up his place.
 * In the 'Beta' episode "A Knight's Secret," Johnathon says that without his siblings, he has nothing to protect and therefore no point to be the high guard, and that he doesn't deserve it . If Johnathon ever said something like this in the canon series, it would cause confusion between characters because he wants to protect the people, the village, and his fellow friends and love interest.
 * In the 'Beta' episodes, Johnathon slept with Kelsey at the end of the 7th episode.
 * Kelsey has confirmed on Tumblr that Johnathon can speak an olden cat language named Catari. He, however, only speaks it to substitute for swearing. He's trying to teach this language to Kelsey.
 * Kelsey has confirmed that Zara and Johnathon are both prone to having an 'existential crisis,' and some frequent ones. This can be shown in the series when Johnathon trails off from talking or pauses after saying something, followed by shaking his head and returning to the original topic.
 * Kelsey has stated that not everything about Johnathon is known, and he is still taking a long time to know completely.
 * Johnathon has anger issues. This is most likely because he is a Dragonstone Warrior, and they are mostly aggressive.
 * Technically, Johnathon is cursed because he is a Dragonstone Warrior, and he never wanted to be.
 * Gabriella and Johnathon are Kelsey's Top 2 favorite characters in The Journal, Johnathon being her first and Gabriella being her second.
 * In Johnathon's official character background, he says his father died in battle before he and Zara were born, but this isn't true, it's just what he believes, considering he and Zara are the youngest in the family. His father was said to have died before they were born, and their mother died giving birth to them, which left his eldest sisters to care for the two of them until they were old enough to care for themselves.
 * In Johnathon's official character background, another one of his deceased sisters is confirmed to have a name; Michelle. Kelsey stated she named the character this way so that another character could easily be compared to her, considering Michelle is Kelsey's first name, while Kelsey, or Kelsaline, is her middle name.
 * In a Fun Facts Journal Kelsey made during the 'Beta' episodes of the series, it is confirmed that Johnathon used to date Melville. It is unknown how or why, but it's known that he did, and they broke up for unknown reasons. This may possibly fit into the canon, considering as he would've had crushes before Kelsey arrived, and it's possible he may of liked Gabriella as well, considering she and Melville are both birds.
 * Kelsey has noted before that Johnathon strongly dislikes children. She has also said that because of this, he may not have children with anyone he falls in love with or, if possible, gets married to.
 * Because of him and Zara being the youngest in the family, Johnathon didn’t really understand his older siblings very much, so he didn’t get strong relationships with any of them except for Michelle and Zara. Zara because she’s Johnathon’s twin, and Michelle because she was like a mentor to him before the War of Morning Kingdoms.
 * Johnathon was born a fox. Kelsey confirmed this by creating another Minecraft skin on her needcoolshoes.com account, where she made a style of Johnathon that was meant to portray what he would've looked like as a fox before his transition into a Dragonstone Warrior. He turned into a cat when he became a Dragonstone Warrior.
 * Johnathon can speak English, Catari, and a little bit of Korean and Japanese.
 * Technically, Johnathon was supposed to be the leader of KingdomsVille when Carol was killed, but he refused to take the position, as he felt he was unworthy. Kelsey, however, often comments on how he should’ve taken the position when he had the chance, as he’s very good at leading all guards, and most of the village. He’s even commanded many others not from his city or friend group to do something, and they’ve listened with almost no question.
 * If Johnathon hadn’t been strong enough to handle the energy his father had as a Dragonstone Warrior being transplanted into him, he could’ve been killed.
 * Johnathon was affected by his backstory greatly, and it plays a huge role in his personality traits. It made him be a lot more overprotective and depressed, and he partially became stronger because of his transformation into a Dragonstone warrior.
 * The one incident that permanently altered Johnathon’s life was the deaths of most of his family. First, his mother Marian was killed giving birth to both him and Zara. Second, 5 of his sisters and Michelle were killed in battle while Zara ran away. Lastly, while Johnathon thought Draxen, his father, was dead, he actually ran away to avoid death to Morningwood. These events have not only traumatized him (considering now he has PTSD) but they’ve altered every aspect of his personality to something he never wanted to be, and he still doesn’t believe that’s what he is.
 * Johnathon’s first love was Melville.
 * Johnathon has trust issues.
 * In all honesty, Johnathon never really had a first kiss even when he was with Melville. The two were very awkward and were too shy to attempt it considering that Johnathon’s a cat and Melville is a cardinal, so it would’ve been weird anyways. They did try it once though, and it was fine but let’s just say Johnathon had to wear a bandage for a while...
 * As far as the series goes, Johnathon and Dallas met when they were training in the guards academy. Johnathon showed Dallas around the academy and to his training center and he stayed and watched him train with his mentor for a while. Eventually they both passed and got accepted at the same time, and they often spar before going into battle or going out on adventures and missions.
 * Johnathon is one of the many characters to have a title before his name. His title is 'Sir,' and he has it because he is a guard.
