Jalander "Jal" Fazer is a fictional character in the television series Skins portrayed by Larissa Wilson.

Jal is described by the official Skins website as "super bright and the most talented young clarinet player in the country".

[1] The daughter of fictional celebrity Ronny Fazer, she is easily the most affluent of all of her friends, of whom she is closest to Michelle Richardson and Chris Miles.

She is very straightforward and self-aware, and has contempt for her brothers' fake "ghetto" personas as well as Tony Stonem's poor treatment of Michelle, and the way in which Sid Jenkins ignores Cassie.

According to her Myspace-style "about me" section on the Skins website[2] she dislikes modern pop artists and wishes to "sue MTV Base for prolonged emotional distress".

Her other favourite things include eating chips, Maxxie Oliver's dancing, and the correlation between maths and music (Pythagorean triples).

She is also incredibly driven, finding herself knowing more than her careers advisor, having planned out her future, and having to pass up a fifteen-minute interview in awkward silence.

She tells him to stop calling Michelle 'nips' and rejects the invitation to Abigail's party, hinting at her anti-party lifestyle which is explored further in her central episode.

Her clarinet is broken by Sid's drug dealing enemy Madison Twatter, who smashes it before being chased away by her brothers Ace and Lynton (who are subsequently beaten into hospital).

She grows closer to Chris as he is abandoned by both parents and left homeless, whilst beginning to become aware of his drug addiction.

This ultimately blows off in Michelle's episode where they fall out due to Jal's inability to tell her about Tony's long list of infidelities.

When Chris starts a brawl, she makes easy work in fighting some of the large male attackers.

He fell for four minutes and thirty-six seconds, reaching seven hundred and forty miles per hour before opening his parachute five kilometres above the Earth.
