This week we will be looking at a personal favorite of mine. This character has just as much going on inside his head as he does outside. With a comic relief point of view and a quick trigger for violence, this week's spotlight goes to: Jacob "The Jester" Harley.
Jester is a very interesting character with a thick background that only the administration staff has had the pleasure to learn about, in the coming weeks we will be looking to get an interview with Jester's creator and hopefully gain some insight into this madman's brain. Here's what we do know:
Jacob is a Human by birth and a Demon by description. He kills without remorse and usually makes it into a game for his own enjoyment. Jacob uses enchanted chains that he controls with his willpower to strangle and maim his victims. The chains wrap around his body acting as armor when he is not attacking and conceal themselves under his clothes. He Carries around a Large Katana with a filtration system in the blade to ooze poison over the striking surface of his blade. Jacob's mask is a cursed object used to protect his identity and punish all those who would reveal it. The Curse in his mask infects anyone who breaks or removes it. The curse traps it's victim in their own nightmares pushing their psyche to the edges of hemorrhaging.
The revealed history of Jacob: Jacob was a paladin who lived his life in a small unnamed village untouched by the corruption of the world. He was a good man caring for the old and the sick with his magic and entertaining the young and unfortunate with his jester costume. But that all changed when Jacobs home was attacked by an unknown enemy, killing his wife and unborn child and burning his home to the ground. With his last breath he called out for help wishing to kill the ones that destroyed his life. His cry for help was answered by a deity of the underworld know as the lord of the 8, Malafar the Trickster.
Malafar created a contract with Jacob were Jacob surrendered his soul to Malafar and allowed Malafar to exist inside him as his new soul so Malafar could observe the world to see if the races are prepared to be introduce to the deities of both good and evil. As the years went by Jacob searched for the ones responsible for his dismay, with the help of Malafar's contract Jacob never aged and as long as he kept killing and collecting souls he could never die either. As the years got longer his mind slowly became twisted, giving up on his search for his killers and turned to becoming a mindless kill machine. In the present time period he is a wanted killer/ hired help that goes by the name Jester.
