~Personal Information~
Personality: Jacob is incredibly charismatic, he has to be, and he also knows it. Using his voice to weave a thousand tales and control an audiance with merely the flick of a wrist to gesticulate shock or awe. This charisma is found throughout his life both in front of a crowd and away from prying eyes. He aspires to be the centre of attention and often hates not to be. He is also a kind man, he gives everything he can to the rebels and does so with little for himself apart from safety and a chance for freedom. Finally Jacob is incredibly cunning. His mind is sharp, his wits always on point however he is not deceitful and does not manipulate people when he can afford not too.
Strengths: Jacob has spent most of his life in the fairytale land wandering. Going around the towns and hiking across the country to find the crowds as well as transport other objects. He is able to perform a variety of tales and even some songs and poems, but his strength lies in oratary and rhetoric. He is also in fantastic shape and quite nimble which allows him to act in the shadows better. Finally Jacob has been all over the Fairy Tale World, he knows people almost everywhere and most of them are for friendly reasons.
Weaknesses: Jacob is no fighter, and some question whether he can be a lover, and he has no standout ability with any sort of weapon. He can hold a blade and knows a few swings, but that is all. He has never been ina pitched battle and the closest he gets to fights is scaring off muggers and sorting out brawls On top of this he can be loyal to a fault. Folding on his own beliefs if he believes that it is in the better interest of his ward or friend.
Magic Capabilities:None
Weapons:Jacob carries a short sword in a scabbard under his robes. It is an old blade, yet well maintained if the leather of the grip and scabbard are very worn. He also always has a stiletto knife on his person at all times, hidden in various pouches he himself sowed into his robes.
Brief Biography (Life In The Fairy Tale World):Jacob was born in the backdrop of a sleepy village in the Wildes, or at least as sleepy as the Wildes get. Here men and women fought to scratch out an existence and have some semblance of civilisation. This was something both Jacob and his brother Wilhelm struggled with, as both wanted more from life. Jacob's parents were committed to providing the best for their children and so Jacob and his brother soon found themselves travelling. Bands of wanderers and troubadours took them on as apprentices in exchange for a small sum. It was on their journeys that the brothers Grimm learned their trades. Both excelled at story telling, their imaginations providing them with a source for a vast array of tales.
However the travellers taught more than simple tricks. The boys learned of the seedier world behind the scenes, they partook in crimes and learnt the tricks of misdirection and robbery as well. Finally their travels brought them into contact with a plethora of peoples, each of them being studied by the boys as they learned about the world. By the time the boys returned both were more worldly and had a vast number of skills they hadn't possessed before. However upon their return, the Queen had begun her conquests. At first it was stories in the local villages and rumors, but the violence came down onto the people of the Wildes and during the fighting Jacob lost both his brother and his parents. Jacob escaped, with the help of friends in the travellers community.
For many years Jacob wandered with the band of misfits that had saved him. It seemed even in times of trouble people needed cheap distractions, and he earned a fair wage providing that, but it was not enough. He lacked an inspiration or an excitement. This excitement would come in the form of a mugging. During a routine exercise the travellers were planning on robbing a well to do gentleman after the man took an alley back from his local drinking hole. The man was something more than they had first expected, he swiftly dispatched the untrained criminals and was moving on when Jacob followed him. The man had been heading back to a small safehouse, in it was stored a number of things. Firstly was some contraband which the Queen had been looking to eradicate. Secondly, and far more importantly, was a number of children whom hadn't been taken to safety in time. Jacob was caught by the men who guARDED the safehouse and pleaded to help. He had no love for the Queen and would do anything to help destroy her rule.
Jacob spent the next few years working with these rebels, smuggling goods and people to safe havens as well as delivering goods to cells. He knew the roads and the people well, his travels taking him all over. And in time he was a well regarded face on the road.
