In D&D or other TTRPG, when a player is absent, he or she allows another player to play their character.
It derives from the movie "Pacific Rim". Jaegers are the giant mech humans use to control.
- "Hey Natalie, I'm absent next week, can you jaeger Nox for me?"
= "Sure! I'll jaeger him."
- "Listen! I do not want anyone jaegering my character... at all!! You'll do it wrong."
