what's in my head?
/// SPECIAL ABILITY
Telepathy: is the ability to hear another person's thoughts. This is achieved by having the fore-brain become more active on a higher level than what could normally be achieved by a normal human. The higher level of activity allows the mind to project and also read thoughts in others through raw mental sense. When Jacob begins to manifest, the thoughts of others will only be like whispers, but the more the power grows, the stronger he can hear the thoughts.
When Jacob becomes more adept at using his power, he will be able to put thoughts into other people's head, and if they are weaker than Jacob mentally then they will obey that thought. Jacob would also be able to make people see, hear and even taste and feel what he wants them to. Because he could invade the mind of another person and make the brain thinks that it is feeling, tasting, seeing and hearing things, even if the victim is not. When Jacob creates illusions they will of course only exist in the victim’s brain, so while they see an illusion, everything will be perfectly fine outside their head. When he is commanding people with his thoughts, he will practically send his thoughts into the head of the victim, and if he is strong enough, they will obey. If not, they won't be affected by the command. [/i]
/// ABILITY LIMITS
Telepathy: this ability can be countered by many different things, either tangible objects that shorten the reach of the ability, or by having a strong enough mentality to push the user back. Also, other Telepaths can interfere with Jacobs’s ability to reach out to the thoughts of others, of course if they are stronger than he is. His power does also cause severe migraine if used too much. While his telepathy is active, he will be very vulnerable to loud noises, and those noises can easily give him severe headaches and thereby either makes him loose control or simply make him stop using his ability, though it is most often the first option. Jacob can read people's thoughts for five minutes without it backfire. But then after those five minutes, his brain will be put under such a big strain that it will gradually begin to become a migraine, the longer he keeps on going after those five minutes, the stronger the migraine becomes.
When he has become able to create mental illusions and control people through thoughts, his mind will be even more weakened by noises. Also the mind invasion is a double edged sword. Because when he invades another person's mind, he also leaves his own mind vulnerable, both from attacks from other people, but also attacks from the person he invades, if they should be stronger than he is. When Jacob creates thought illusions, he has a choice when adding senses. Depending on how many senses he chooses to have in the illusion will affect the length of how long he can keep it up. If he were to only use one sense, then he would be able to keep it up for 20 minutes. But if he were to use two senses, then he would only be able to keep it up for ten minutes. And with three senses his time will be five minutes. When it reaches four senses then the time will be 2.30 minutes and with five senses it will be as low as 1.15 minutes. [/i]
/// PERSONALITY
When Jacob works, he does it seriously, you will rarely find him making any funny comments or such things. He believes in what could be called the “you have to work hard and seriously, otherwise you will gain nothing” attitude, which makes him end up in a lot of conflicts with people that might make fun of his or their work. Jacob has shown the signs of a normal workaholic; he has the tendency to work harder than it is healthy, and he has therefore had several cases of stress related illnesses.
Out of work, he tries to relax as much as possible, even though it is hard for him. Jacob wants to work 24/7 if he could, but he knows that it would not be good for him, and therefore tries to relax when he can. Often he will relax with watching TV, reading books or finally gaming, mostly computer games. Of course reading, gaming and watching TV is not the only things he does. Jacob makes sure that he stays healthy, he does a lot of training in his spare time, the training is mostly running and swimming. He keeps himself mentally healthy by doing word puzzles, and of course as stated before reading.
Jacob will not willingly go to huge parties, especially not if the party has alcoholic liquids, smoking or drugs involved. Jacob doesn't like such things simply because they are slow ways of committing suicide. Of course he can be friends with people that smoke or drinks alcoholic drinks, but they would have a harder time gaining his trust. If he should become friends with a drug addict, he would most likely try to make them stop, even if that would mean the end of their friendship.
Even though his work means a lot to him, he also takes good care of his friends of family, if they ask for his help; he will try his best to give it to them. Of course Jacob will try to make sure it will not conflict with his working schedule, since that means nearly as much to him. Jacob also believes in the truth, even with his friends. He will not have second thoughts about saying the truth to them, even though it might be ugly, so if you ask “do these pants make my butt look big.” And they do, then be ready for the truth.
Jacob is also known for being over protective and sometimes a little paranoid, not much though, but it certainly does not help him in getting new friends. His over protective nature have actually leaded him to buy several weapons, legally of course, just so he would be able to protect them.

/// HISTORY
Jacob was born into a middle-class family, with him being the youngest of the pair of kids by a whole 30 minutes. His mother worked in a shop, and his father worked at as a part-time tattooist and factory worker, whenever they had some job for him. It was not such a bad life as some would think, even though they lived in the worst part of the city. Crime and violence were a normal part of both Jacob’s and his sister Patricia’s life, who was only half-an-hour older. Both of them had gotten a strong moral from their mother, so they did not really fit into the school they went to. Of course that leads to them having a very close bond with each other instead of with the other kids. When they weren't at school both Jacob and Patricia helped their mother at the shop, it helped earning the family a little extra money to live for.
Jacob’s mother and father spent their extra money on things for the kids, so Jacob and Patrica had their own TV, which unfortunately ended in them watching horror movies long into the night. Jacob wasn't scared of all the monsters, and the creepy music. What actually scared him while watching those movies was actually when the movies made what any kid would think as normal, into something horrific, especially when that horrific thing was totally insane clowns; it actually ended in him having many nightmares where clowns played the main antagonist. Jacobs father was a very practical and physical man, he believed that the way to get those nightmares to get away, were to give the boy more self-esteem. There was only one way to get that, and it was with training, training, and more training. So both Jacob and his father began to train together, it was mostly running and swimming but they did do some weight lifting too. And when the nightmares stopped they both actually got the three words Mind, soul, and body tattooed on their body, to celebrate the disappearance of the evil clowns and to remind them of the importance of keeping oneself healthy.
Jacob joined the army when he was old enough. Jacob had always been interested in becoming a soldier, seeing new places meeting new people, those where the things with being a soldier that attracted him. He had gotten those ideas of the US army like that from all those weird recruitment advertisements that were supposed to glorify the US army in exactly such a way, and he fell for it of course. While being in the army, he worked harder than anyone else, he learned to fire and maintain firearms, and he even learned the basics of a hand-to-hand self defense style. Jacob got into a many fights while being in the army, mostly because the other people were taking too lightly on it, he knew being a soldier was not about fun in the start; it was a serious job for him. During one of those fights a seemingly ordinary soldier that where beating the crap out of Jacob, decided to use some dirty tricks on Jacob. The soldier was an evolved-human with a power, his power made his hand as sharp as a knife. The soldier used that to his advantage and hit Jacob with his knife-like-arm right under Jacob's ribcage; it gave a pretty big wound, which left a nearly just as big scar.
After that incident the US army decided that he was not exactly fit for going anywhere, so they practically threw him out. Jacob did not mind that though, heck with something like what he just thought he had seen when the man had attacked him then he did not even believe he was fit. After he returned to Phoenix he found his mother in a wheel-chair, it hurt him very much, since Jacob hadn't heard anything about that. The reason she had ended in a wheel-chair was that while she had been taking some money out of the bank, a bank robbery had begun; the robber was a little ill tempered. When the bank employees refused to do as he ordered, he began to shot wildly around to make them parry order. Unfortunately one bullet hit Jacob's mother and damaged the nerve system, making her unable to use her legs.
Jacob of course wanted revenge at first, but after doing a little investigation of the case, he found out that the robber had been no more than 16 only a mere child. It made him forget about revenge, but rather moved his sight onto society itself. Crime was corrupting the world, the kids. Jacob didn't want such a thing to happen. So he decided to get a job where he could actually help preventing that corruption, the job he chose was becoming a private investigator. He got a work at a pretty little bureau, the boss of that bureau decided to have Jacob partnered up with a very knowledgeable private investigator named James. James saw the potential in Jacob through his enthusiasm. James taught Jacob many useful things, some not as legal as others, but even James knew that even a hero had a dark side.
James and Jacob worked on many cases together many them involved drugs, human trafficking and such, pretty much they scrapped the bottom of the society both the normal and the criminal. It was under one of those cases that Jacob met his future wife. Her name was Jenifer, and she was drug addicted not because of the feelings and such, but because when she was on drugs, people did not die around her. Jacob felt sympathy with her; she had no family, no real friends and an addiction. Jacob decided to help her out of her bad situation. She lot Jacob helps her and they ended becoming very close friends. They became so close friends that they actually decided to live together. After some years of living together they had really fallen in love and therefore they decided to get married, and so they did. Since then they have been doing their everyday life, Jacob working and trying to help her with her little problem and Jenifer coping with her power and her addiction.

/// SAMPLE RP
Knock… Knock…
Jacob had been knocking for the last half an hour now. The lights in the house were turned on, he could see that, and he had also heard sounds coming from the inside so there had to be someone inside. Why aren't they opening? Jacob thought as he knocked again. Jacob wasn't an impatient guy, but half an hour was pushing it a little. Jacob moved his left hand down into his jean's pockets, and took out a pair of white gloves, he hated having to do this, but this was an important case, and they were reaching the deadline for it and that wasn't exactly a good thing. He took with his right hand a very small pocket knife with a very thin blade. He moved down on knees, and carefully inserted the knife into the key-hole. He then turned it around and.
Click.
The lock sprang up, allowing Jacob to gain access the house. Jacob slowly opened the door, a small cricking noise could be heard as the door slowly swung open, and it was just like on one of those old horror movies. Should he go inside? Yes he should, this was important. Jacob walked into the house, through the entrance hallways and over to the living room. He heard the sound of flies flying around and a disgusting smell came over from the couch. Jacob walked closer. A dead person lays on the couch; it looked like it had been lying there for quite awhile, since the flies and the rotting process had already begun.
Jacob quickly took out his cell-phone from his pocket and called 911. ”Yes what can I do for you?” A calm nearly bored female voice said, as she answered his phone call. "Yes, I just found a dead body!" Jacob said, sounding not just a little bit out of it, it wasn't like the body was affecting him; his pulse was just pumping that was all. It had been some time since he had seen anything remotely as bad as the corpse. "Can you tell me your name and the address where the corpse is located?" The boring female voice replied, it did not sound like she was taking this seriously at all, but this was not the time for such a discussion. Jacob quickly gave her the address and his own name, and then hung up.
Jacob had now told what he needed, and when was not going to stay in there for one second more. Jacob left the house careful of not leaving any evidence of him behind, he wouldn't want to become a suspect in that case. Jacob shook his head slightly as he walked out the door, the picture of the corpse was still fully visible before his vision. He would have to sleep for a long time, before it would go away. He walked towards his car. He took his key ring out of his pocket and began to search for the right key. He had a lot of keys, but finally he found it. After that it did not take long to unlock the car door and start the engine. He began to drive away; all he wanted was to get back home to his sweet wife Jenifer.
Did you read the rules: The rules? My dog ate them. Honest.
