-------------
Former Columbian auxiliary police, she came to Rhodes Island for treatment after contracting oripathy. She's always full of energy, as if there's nothing that can let her down. She's also very friendly towards others, and is liked by many other operators. Some older operators even treat her as a little sister or even as a daughter.
Her favorite thing to do is advocating her father's glorious deeds.

Jackie is a 4★ Brawler Guard with a Talent that increases her Physical Evade and ASPD. Her S1 is a straightforward ATK boost, while her S2 puts her into counter-attack mode, stopping her normal attacks but increasing her Physical Evade, and allowing her to counterattack on every Dodge.

First Impressions
Note: These are first impressions and based on conjecture since we don’t know the exact details.
Jackie plays the role of a survivability focused Brawler Guard , with lots of Physical Evade, and abilities that revolve around her Dodges. 4★ Beehunter, 5★ Indra, and 5★ Flint are all other Operators that share this Archetype, each with slightly differently utility. Brawler Guard have very fast attack speed, and a lower base ATK to compensate. Thus, they have a tough time against high DEF enemies, but are excellent at mowing down squishes.
The biggest concern with jackie is that she requires being attacked with Physical damage to activate her Dodge. This means squishy Casters or other Arts units aren't going to empower her. Brawler Guards don't have exceptional DEF and HP, which means they are quite susceptible to strong Physical attackers (which is exactly what she is built to take on). Thus, she is most suited for a situation where she is receiving many low ATK Physical attacks, which is a situation a high DEF Operator like a Defender can typically handle with ease. It will be interesting to see how high her Evade stats are, but Jackie's most used role will most likely be that of loyal-doggo for the doggo loving Doctors out there.
