Intellectual Characteristics

Has a good eye for coin and great at predicting the approximate value of most items.   Focuses upon the immediate goals in any situation. Ex. Running after stealing a diamond but there’s a dead end. With a quick glance, there’s an unopened window to the left but a hole to the right. Charging through the window you tumble into an unknown house and make your escape.

Morality & Philosophy

Jacob sees the world in dark shades of grey. He isn't overly suspicious of people nor is he optimistic about the good in people. He tries to do his best for the chosen few he finds interest in, but as a whole he doesn't strive to support the general good. He thinks every person should haul their own weight, keep society going, and go for whatever they want. That's not to say he'll support everyone's ambitions. If an evil sorcerer wishes to enslave the world Jacob will happily kill them because they pose a threat to the world. He won't fault them for following their dreams but he will always ask people to be ready for the consequences of their actions. He disdains any violence towards women and children.
