Jesse can wear several outfits differing from their regular outfits, including the option to choose between different armor types. Near the beginning of "Hero In Residence", Jesse wears an iron chestplate, teasingly called "dork armor" by Petra and later on destroyed by Lluna.
In the end of "The Last Place You Look", you have the option between wearing Magnus's armor and Ellegaard's armor. After this, in "A Block and a Hard Place", you get the choice to keep the armor, or change to a new armor set, offered by Ivor. In "A Journey's End?", you gain Tim armor after respawning, to battle the Old Builders in. Lastly, in "Hero in Residence", you have the option to choose between all of the above armor choices, Petra and Jesse commenting on each armor if you look at them.
In "Jailhouse Block", Jesse dons either a white short sleeve shirt with their suspenders (male-presenting appearance), or just a white tank top (female-presenting appearance), both with the same orange pants. If you choose to be an associate in the "Sunshine Institute", Jesse's outfit changes to a black suit with purple shoulderpads and a white collar.
In "Below the Bedrock", if you win the trivia competition, you have the option for Jesse to wear Fred's Sleeping Garments, which are similar in appearance to Fred's normal Admin outfit, different shades of blue.
Later on in that episode, you get a choice between several pieces of busted up armor, and if you pay attention to Lluna, you can also find the "Golden Apple" armor.
In "Above and Beyond", Jesse wears a fireworks uniform, consisting of a white tshirt and red overalls with a hat.
Personality[]
Jesse's personality is mostly decided through the players actions, such as generous or selfish, arrogant or humble, polite or rude, etc. but some things they say or do show a general personality no matter what choice is picked. They show genuine worry for their friends, is visibly upset when Reuben dies, horrified when their friends are presumably killed on multiple occasions, and shocked speechless when Aiden pushes Lukas off the edge of Sky City (determinant.) It is also commented by several characters of how tenacious they are.

Trivia[]
- Jesse is one of three characters in Minecraft: Story Mode that has two or more voice actors, the others being Olivia (Her voice actor changes in Season 2), and Romeo.
- In "A Block and a Hard Place" if Jesse chooses to eat the potatoes, they mention that potatoes are their favorite food.
- In The Order of the Stone, if Jesse goes back to save Lukas, they mention that their motto is "No man left behind".
- Jesse is the only character in Minecraft: Story Mode who can be either male or female.
- It is revealed in A Journey's End? that Jesse is ambidextrous, as they can use a pickaxe equally well with their left and right hands.
- Jesse has almost every skill for the different classes: builder, griefer, redstonist, architect, and warrior.
- The only group Jesse doesn't have a skill for is brewery.
- Sometimes, a glitch in "A Portal to Mystery" causes Jesse's portrait to depict the caucasian male Jesse without armor, regardless of appearance choice.
- Curiously enough, this means that the portrait picture was designed when Jesse could not have lost their armor.
- Ivor, The White Pumpkin (or Cassie Rose), and PAMA have all commented on Jesse's tenacity during their struggles to survive:
- In "Assembly Required", Ivor, before fighting Jesse and Petra/Gabriel, has commented on their tenacity.
- In "A Portal to Mystery", The White Pumpkin calls Jesse "incredibly tenacious."
- In "Access Denied", PAMA calculates that Jesse's bravery and tenacity are impressive qualities.
- Jesse is one of the clumsiest characters in the series, managing to drop/lose the amulet multiple times, fall over multiple times, and drop items such as the Command Block Weapon and the Enchanted Flint and Steel.
- If the player decides to import their old save in season 2, they are allowed to re-choose Jesse's appearance and even gender for the season. However, if either is chosen, no explanation is given for the change.
- Due to a glitch in "Giant Consequences", every Jesse variant has light green eyes for said episode.
- It was revealed by Eric Stirpe that Jesse is the shortest member of the New Order of the Stone.
