==Biography==
=== Past ===
When Jacob was younger, the ship that he was on, The Monarch, caught fire and sank. After saving himself by holding on to a piece of debris, he was eventually rescued by Captain Crow, who went on to adopt him and make him part of his crew.
=== Meeting Maisie ===
Jacob goes to a bar and meets an orphaned young girl named Maisie Brumble, who asks if she can join his crew. But, he doesn't take her seriously after hearing that she was from a children's home in Guelston. After finding out that Maisie stowed away on the Inevitable, he let her stay after Captain Crow appears as he plans on killing The Red Bluster.
=== Encountering the Bluster ===
The Inevitable gets caught in a whirlpool and it is eventually revealed that The Red Bluster has circled around the ship, preparing to attack. After several crewmates fell overboard off the ship, Maisie cuts the ropes to save the group.
After Crow finds out about this, he yells at Maisie for letting the Bluster go. Jacob is then ordered by Crow to bring Maisie to the latter, but refuses and is held at gunpoint. However, before he can shoot, the Red Bluster appears and swallows Maisie and Jacob whole.
=== Meeting Blue ===
Jacob, Maisie, and the Bluster are taken to an uncharted island and land on some palm trees. After getting down, he follows Maisie into the forest where the latter would find and befriend another creature which Maisie would name, Blue.
When Jacob approached her, she accidentally cracks an egg on the ground. It turns out they ended up in the middle of some sort of nest, since the rest of the eggs began to hatch. After the group is carried back to the beach by some yellow creatures, they reunite with the Bluster.
=== Befriending the Bluster ===
When Jacob and company began to sail back to sea, they are attacked by a Purple Crustacean. After a struggle, the Bluster defeats it. However, the battle resulted in the boat sinking, so Maisie had an idea to ride the Bluster, which she would then name Red.
While traveling to Rum Pepper Island, Jacob attempts spears some fish while Maisie removes the spears off of Red. After struggling to catch any fish, Red circles around the school of fish and capture them, providing the group with food.
=== Imperator Attack ===
Arriving at Rum Pepper Island, Jacob vows to Red that he will never hunt sea monsters again, and unsuccessfully tries to split his hunting spear. But while they were attempting to part ways, Red is suddenly attacked by The Imperator, led by Admiral Hornagold.
This angers Red, who charges and destroys the Imperator. When she is about to eat Hornagold, Jacob shot her with a spear. Suddenly, Red hears a gunshot sound coming from the Inevitable who then shoot her with a poison that was made by Gwen Batterbie, knocking her unconscious.
=== Return to Three Bridges ===
After Jacob and the group are taken in by Captain Crow, the latter discusses his plans to have Red publicly executed. This angers Maisie, who then lunges at Crow with the intention of stabbing him, only to be stopped by the latter.
Later, when the Inevitable reaches the Three Bridges, Maisie secretly cuts the rope binding Red, with help from Sarah Sharpe. After Red collapses on a building, Maisie begins explaining the truth about the war (after finding out that the books that tell the stories about the sea monsters are branded by the Crown). She explains that the sea monsters became violent due to how the hunters had attacked them over the years, and how their people had sacrificed themselves while the King and Queen does nothing to help them. Jacob then ends this off by completing his vow to never hunt sea monsters again and splits his hunting spear, putting an end to the war. After that, the King and Queen then make a break for it and run off, and the Red Bluster is saved.
