Nickname: Jakey (used only by his wife)

Height: 6'4"

Build
Massive. Jacob is a very large man. For one thing, his bond structure is just generally large, with broad shoulders, massive arms and legs, and a strong core. But don't be fooled; there isn't a bit of fat to be found on him. Jacob is all bulging, intimidating muscles, balanced throughout his body. He is immensely strong, and it shows in his physique.

Skin
If you want to apply a human racial description to Jacob, he would be an African American; he has very rich dark skin that, unfortunately, shows certain sorts of scars easily. He has no noticeable freckles, marks, or birthmarks to mar his skin.

Tattoos/Special Markings?
No tattoos, but Jacob has many scars. As a werewolf, the only wounds he is incapable of healing completely are those caused by silver weapons. Jacob has many such scars; a myriad of them on his arms, several on his calves, and an assortment of scars along his back and chest. The most predominate of these scars is a claw-like scar on his left cheek that curves from just under his left eye under his jaw; otherwise the scars were obtained in an extended past of hard living. The scars themselves are noticeably both raised from his skin and a white/silver color that is impossible to miss against his skin. Not that you'd ask, but Jacob doesn't like to talk about his scars.

Face
Jacob has an absolutely terrifying face. It's not his fault; he's a sweet, tenderhearted man, but he was just unfortunate enough to have been born looking like a scowling badass. He has a very square chin and jaw, and the panes of his face are strong, wide, and noble. He has a wide, flat nose, well situated over a wide mouth with the upper and lower lips evenly matched and their corners turned down in a slight, natural scowl. As might be implied, his expression is usually very serious, and, unfortunately, he only seems to look frightening when he looks touched or overjoyed. He sports no facial hair; Jacob likes to be neat and tidy.

Eyes
<-- Like this shape wise, not color.
Jacob's eyes are deep set and deeply shadowed under heavy black eyebrows, something that adds to his overall glowering appearance. But his eyes are actually some of his most noticeable features when one dares to get close enough to see them. Though they are under-shadowed and usually set in a stern expression, they are a lovely light brown or hazel color. Jacob's eyes aren't very expressive at all; he is the Unreadable Man. His eyelashes are relatively short and unnoticeable, as dark as his hair.

Hair
Jacob has always had thick black hair, but he also always hated it; it only got in his way. So ever since he was a very young man he had kept it shaved close to his head. Not to the point that he is bald, but something like a crew cut. So his hair is mostly black, but with grayness as a result of age showing up around his temples, faint but there.

Piercings?
None. No one has ever been brave enough to go near this man with a needle.

Werewolf Form
Huge as a human means huge as a werewolf; Jacob is the personification of this idea. He's extremely large even by werewolf standards, and has more prominent muscles than either wolf or werewolf. As a result it takes time for him to transform and his speed isn't really his strength; his selling point is his extreme strength, not speed. He has a rather short snout, and relatively short black hair covering his entire body. He has huge paws with dull black claws, rather large furry wolf ears and a tail. His eyes are a bright, eerie orange, and have a very intelligent light to them.




Style
Jacob is a big, big man; his 'style' depends more on what will fit rather than what he likes. Jacob doesn't like flashy styles or colors, though; he's the sort of man that wears neutral tones, probably in cotton weaves.
Signature item(s)?
Jacob owns his own bar and serves as it's one celebrated cook, so he's often seen wearing aprons. Jacob is a proud man and no one would dare mock him, so he can get away with wearing any sort of apron that he damn well pleases. This includes, occasionally, a frilly one that his wife proudly sewed for him. He endures wearing it like a champion.




Jacob is the alpha of the largest werewolf pack in the area; he won the position both by making tough decisions and proving himself both levelheaded and fair. He is extremely loyal to his pack and his family; he dotes on his wife, Mary, and his two children. He runs a bar known as the Wolf's Bane, and he lovingly maintains it, almost like it is a third child. He loves to cook, and spends a great deal of time doing it; he's especially loves baking sweet treats, and makes specialty foods for other supernatural creatures. He is the strong, silent type; he listens more than he speaks almost all the time.




Jacob is a laid back man, happiest either in his bar, the Wolf's Bane, or with his wife Mary (profile to come soon). Draw him at the job in his happy place or cuddling affectionately with his wife in his happier place?
