Jeff lives in the snowy {{wp|England}} inspired country of [[Winters]] in the [[Snow Wood Boarding House]] school. Jeff's personality is shown as being shy, clumsy and wreckless, and he also admitted he is nearsighted. He is, however, very smart individual, reflected by his high IQ stat. He is able to repair broken items into weapons or other useful goods throughout the night. Initally Jeff is seen as being very distant from his father Dr. Andonuts, who he hasen't seen in ten years, to the point where he wouldn't acknowledge him as his father. As the game progresses they begin to grow closer to each other, and in the ending Jeff says he would like to spend more time with Dr. Andonuts, who he finally acknowledge as his father.

Much like Ness, Jeff originally was not intended to have an official age during development. His age is vaguely mentioned in the EarthBound Player's Guide and trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, where it says he is the same age as Ness.<ref>"Winter is home to the son of a famous scientist. He is the same age as Ness, so they have a lot to talk about." -EarthBound Player's Guide</ref> However, due to Ness's age being inconsistant across regions (12 in Japanese guides, and 13 in the EarthBound Player's Guide), it is unclear how old he is exactly.


His design is comparable to [[Lloyd]] from [[EarthBound Beginnings]], as they have a very similar design, though Lloyd instead has gray hair and wears a red t-shirt with black shorts, and his glasses are more circular. Interestingly, early concept artwork of Jeff shows him wearing a red t-shirt with brown shorts, and wearing round glasses, making him look more closely to Lloyd.

===Spying===
====Spying====
Jeff has the ability to '''Spy''' (Japanese:'''{{tt|チェック|Chekku}}''' ''[[Check]]'') on enemies, which lists their offense and defense, along with one of their [[PSI]] weaknesses. If there would be an [[Present|item]] dropped at the end of battle, Jeff will steal it from the enemy (if there are free inventory slots).

===Repairing objects===
====Repairing objects====
Jeff can repair [[broken items]] when he rests at a hotel. The chances of him repairing an object depends on his IQ, and the amount of attempts he has tried to repair any objects.<ref>[http://walkthrough.starmen.net/earthbound/itemlist_broken.php Starmen.Net EarthBound Walkthrough - Item Fixing Guide]</ref>

{{sprite|[[File:NPC theater.gif|150px|thumb|left|Ness and the other Chosen Four in the theater]]}}
Like the rest of the Chosen Four, Jeff makes a cameo appearence in ''Mother 3'' in the theater in [[New Pork City]]. The screen plays Porky Minch's favorite film showing Ness and his friends in a slide show showing various parts of ''EarthBound''. Jeff appears in four scenes: one in [[Winters]] where he and [[Bubble Monkey]] are about to ride [[Tessie]], in front of the [[Boogey Tent]] in [[Threed]], about to fight [[Master Belch]] with Ness and Paula, and where he and the others are with the meteor in [[Onett]].

:''Another of [[Ness]]'s close friends in [[EarthBound]], Jeff is the only son of the famous scientist, [[Dr. Andonuts]]. Jeff is a mechanical genius, able to turn common, broken tools into complex weapons like the [[List of battle items in EarthBound#Hungry HP-sucker|Hungry HP-sucker]] and the [[List of battle items in EarthBound#Slime generator|Slime Generator]]. He's a bit on the shy side but incredibly intelligent and brave in the heat of battle.''
