Mental characteristics

Personal history

Jacub, a young Magicka wielding Human-Elf half-blood wakes up deep in the Erlian Forest with no memory of who he was, how he got here and has no idea of the world around him and with very limited supplies. Through a letter from his father he finds out his kind is illegal within The Crimson Empire due to the Great Reformation and his existence had been discovered by the Imperial Intelligence, prompting an attack by the notorious Imperial Sentinels. To assure Jacub’s survival, his mother had his memories wiped and his father brought him deep into the Erlian Forest with enough supplies and directions to lead him to the next settlement, where friends of him would smuggle him into the Elven Kingdom of Ulf of Mythril, where he would be safe. During his journey to this settlement, he is attacked by a boar who overpowers him and as the boar is about to finish him, Jacub is rescued by a friendly mage who takes him to his cottage and informs him about the current state of the world. The mage mentions that he is part of a coven of mages spread across the continent and they are planning to rise up against the Crimson Empire when the time is right and offers Jacub to join them and to train him in the ways of Magicka. Not wanting to have to deal with something like this, Jacub refuses and thus is patched up and sent on his way. He arrives at the settlement he needed to go to and his father's friend ferries him to Ulf of Mythril where he is brought under care by an Elven ranger named Ilvisar who trains him to be a ranger himself.   Three years later, a refugee from the Citadel arrives at Lilith, the Elven Capital with an urgent message that The Crimson Empire is not just hunting down and capturing Magicka Wielders, but are also torturing them, executing them, experimenting with them and brainwashing them to become the fearsome Sentinels. He also mentions to Jacub that he knows his mother, and she is also held in captivity within the deep dungeons of The Citadel. This devastating news fills Jacub with anger, desire for revenge and devotion to save his mother. He asks Ilvisar to take this matter to the Elven High Court to do something, but knowing such an action will put the already fragile relationship the Elves have with The Crimson Empire at risk, he refuses but as he understands what this means to Jacub, he brings him to the High Court as an attempt to find a solution. The Elven High King shares the view of Ilvisar but mentions an age-old legend concerning the “Aetherium Master Armor”, a set of armor that makes the wielder invulnerable to Magicka while enhancing their own Magicka Affinity. The actual armor set had been lost by the ages, but with the right materials, it would be possible to recreate this armor. Thus, he bestows upon Jacub the quest to retrieve these materials from all over the continent to forge this Aetherium Master Armor. Knowing this quest is not without dangers, and Jacub is not ready for such an assignment, Ilvisar sends his highest pupil, Iqo with him.

However during his travels with Iqo, he notices that he is developing mutual feelings for his Elven companion, leading to a lot of internal struggle and hesitation on what to do.

Education

After reaching the Ulf of Mythril, Jacub spent six years training to be a ranger. During his quest to rescue his mother, he also learns how to control his Magicka abilities.

He likes to know everything about what happens around him, which more times than none leads him into trouble. He got a close relationship with his companion Iqo, and the two share a near inseparable bond together.

Morality & Philosophy

Jacub does not believe in all the Religions followed on Terratos, he rather believes that the world had been conceived by the forces of Magicka, as all the Magicka elements are represented within the world.

Taboos

For the few people that he does trust, Jacub feels a strong sense of brotherhood and would never leave any of his friends behind and would always come back for them. Jacub has very little tolerance towards people that do not share these values.

He also has a weak spot for foxes, absolutely longing to have one as a pet.   What Jacub absolutely despises are insectoids, thinking that they are disgusting.

Virtues & Personality perks

Vices & Personality flaws

Due to his trauma's from his youth, Jacub has strong abandonment issues and he finds it difficult to let new people in and giving them his trust.

Social

Contacts & Relations

The first person Jacub met after losing his memory, was a human mage residing in the Erlian Forest. Despite the fact that this mage saved his life, Jacub did not think very highly of him as he wanted a large scale conflict against The Crimson Empire. Not knowing about the true nature of this Empire at the time, Jacub strongly disagreed.   After arriving in Lilith, Jacub was raised and trained by an Elven Ranger named Ilvisar, who he sees as his father figure and therefore shares a strong bond with. During his quest, Jacub also meets fellow Ranger Iqo, who he develops a strong bond with and the two also team up with a Dwarven Blacksmith in The Citadel named Helgruk, who also proved to be a reliable ally and friend to Jacub.

Family Ties

The sexuality part is a bit too long I think. Leave the romance plot for the personal history or the relationships.
