Description: A hulking woman with gigantic muscles, she wears a shirt that is too small, which lets her gut show, with a ratty grey coat over it. Her hair is chestnut and very short. She wears a mask on her face.

Personality: She misses her glory days as an athlete. She does not mind her job, but it is boring in comparison. As she has aged she has sought to do reparations for her actions as a youth. She is also making sure that her compatriots who never received punishment for their crimes are brought to justice.

History: She comes from a rich eastern family. Her parents died when she was young, and she was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Jacoba grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Jacoba. She knows her nephew is from a royal line that had remained secret for centuries, but promised not to tell anyone. So far, no-one knows but her.

Motivation: A rival would like her out of the picture; and she has comitted a past crime that haunts her to this day

Personality: She dislikes all the random violence that takes place in the west. Her job bores her to no end. She has decided to make it more interesting.

History: A studious child she never was much for a social life, not because she was unlikable, but because she did not seek it out.
