Jakub Thorsson (Yakub)
Species:	Human
Gender:	Male
Organization:	Green Tide Fisheries
Occupation:	President / Vessel Captain

Jakub is a tanned man of 6 feet with a the shape and look that, were he in old sixteenth century Nordic armour, he would appear ready to burn an entire village down. He has an almost golden type of blonde hair that reaches his shoulders and a full beard of the same colour that makes it to the top of his chest. His eyes are a blue that seem to pierce when focused, but can soften dramatically when desired.

The Thorsson “patriarch” tends towards a balance of honesty and kindness that, though counter to what he looks, is also a throwback of his ancient heritage. That does not mean that he can't get angry, however, and when needed has been known to allow his stature to scare a person if he believes it will help the situation. He also has seen a few things in his years and likes to offer his wisdom to others when he feels the time is right.

Father of Asrid Thorsson, Jakub started out fishing with his family before the plague. He had then moved down to Kyousou after a few years as his uncle's first mate to start out on his own. This was around when he found out about the new Human body and got one for himself out of curiosity.

Though saved by youth that he was, the fisherman lost many of the family he knew and loved when the plague came and went. Even people on his first crew fell ill, later succumbing to their fates like so many in the Empire. This was around when he had met Sayako; a woman whose entire family had converted over to the Human body, having trusted what they were told.

It was Sayako's family who caused the young Thorsson to get back at building his fishing business again, as they refused to allow an unemployed ruffian near their precious girl. Young love got his feet under him again, and Jakub soon managed to collect enough people to get a boat out to water again. Marriage, children, and a decent home just seemed to fall into place after all that.
