Age: 25
Gender: Male
Partner: Samantha Hales (unofficially)
Weapon or Meister: Meister
Appearance:
Standing at just under the average height for a man, Jacob is on the thin side, but his muscles are well defined and it's clear that he keeps in shape from his constant training. He has loose hanging, some what long for a guy, red hair. He usually wears a simple black button up shirt with a pair of darker blue jeans, the only variance you'll typically see comes from whether or not he has the sleeves rolled up.
History
Jacob spent his childhood moving from one orphanage to the next. He never could make any friends or find anyone to adopt him, the reason for that is simple, he was damaged goods. He was born with a mental disorder that caused him to hallucinate as well as sometimes slip into mild insanity. However, the hallucinations weren't all bad, they would point out details that most people would miss, allowing him to learn much more from simply observing than any of the other children.
At the age of fifteen, Jacob decided to go to the DWMA and become a meister. If there was anywhere he could fit in it was there, or so he thought. He attended classes and studied hard, but his mental disorder still distanced him from the other students and no compatible weapon was found. Working hard despite these facts, he became well known among the DWMA staff for his deductive skills and keen insight. At age twenty-one he became a teacher at the DWMA even though he had never wielded a weapon.
When Samantha Hales was released from the dungeons, the DWMA experimentally partnered them up once, and Jacob found he was (relatively) resistant to her corruption. Ever since, they've been an unofficial pair.
Personality
Jacob is always looking for ways to make every situation more fun or interesting, his way of doing so is usually rather loony. Because of his mental disorder, he is often seen having conversations with no one or dodging around something that wasn't there. He's fully aware of his disorder and makes no effort to hide it. Instead he uses his hallucinations to tap into the power of his subconscious and grant him greater observational and deductive skills.
From a social stand point, Jacob seems weird enough that most people try to avoid him, but if you give him a chance you'll find that he's actually quite polite, if a little awkward.
Abilities
Solo
Because he never had a partner before, Jacob is quite skilled at fighting on his own, without a weapon. He is able to analyze the situation and come up with a plan of action that allows him to take down foes that have more raw power than he does.
Jacob's observational and deductive skills also make him a great asset when there's a mystery to be solved.
