Jessie Bannon

Physical appearance
Jessie is a teenage girl with green eyes, red hair that goes past her shoulders, and fair skin. She has a slim athletic build.

Personality

In-depth character background
Jessie Bannon is Race Bannon's daughter by Estella Velasquez, and a good friend of Hadji Singh, Jonny Quest, and Dr. Benton Quest. She accompanies the Quest family on many of their adventures, providing another voice of intelligence in addition to Hadji's eastern approach and Jonny's impulsive resourcefulness. She identifies with Dr. Quest more than her father, and is eager to analyze new information and help in the course of Dr. Quest's phenomenology investigations. She's revealed in "Thoughtscape" to be very ambitious at heart, hoping to improve humanity through her dedicated effort and research.

Abilities
She knows how to code and repair broken computers, drive a quest bike in Questworld, and ride a hoverboard.
