Jack is shown to be incredibly eccentric, always alive and active. He is somewhat of an optimist; when he puts his mind to something, he will not stop until he achieves it. He tends to be slightly oblivious, and never thinks things through, which usually leads to disaster. Though capable of learning from his mistakes, Jack does attempt a second try at bad ideas, such as using an the artificial heart and trying to understand Christmas. However, he is a generally cheerful character who is greatly respected by all, with the exception of Oogie.

Jack is innovative when it comes to planning Halloween celebrations, having stated he "[takes] inspiration from the world around [him]"; [[Dr. Finkelstein]] notes it was a quality usually found in scientists. Jack enjoys creating new inventions, such as a Blizzard exploding pumpkin, the scarecrow he based on Roxas, and the [[Leechgrave]].

Jack [[Bone Fist|does not equip a weapon]], but his attack power and [[MP]] are still relatively high. Jack has two equipment slots and three [[item]] slots. Instead of physical attacks, Jack casts [[magic]] which is similar to Sora and Donald's, but incorporates Halloween themes.

Jack's combat [[abilities]] consist entirely of offensive special attacks. [[Applause!]] is his only physical skill, causing him to slide into enemies. The rest of his repertoire includes magical spells of four different elements: [[Blazing Fury]] launches a fireball, [[Icy Terror]] fires ice crystals, [[Bolts of Sorrow]] summons thunderbolts, and [[Ghostly Scream]] conjures dark energy. Jack's Support abilities include [[Treasure Magnet]], [[Jackpot]], [[Cheer]], and [[MP Rage]].

Jack is a magic character with spells similar to Donald and Sora's, but with a decisively Halloween theme. As such, his ability list is very similar to Donald's and he tends to burn through his MP quickly. Jack has no armor slots, two accessory slots and three item slots. His "weapons" are his own [[Bone Fist|fists]].

He has a number of support abilities, including [[Lucky Lucky]], [[Fire Boost]], [[Blizzard Boost]], [[Thunder Boost]], [[MP Hastera]], {{c|Auto Limit|support ability}} and [[Auto Change]].
