Jacob Lessio

Jacob Lessio is part of the Alvarez Empire and a former member of the Spriggan 12, the protection guard of Emperor Spriggan, he garnered the epithet "Assassin" due to his expertise in the art of assassination.

## Appearance

Jacob appears to be a tall, muscular middle-aged man with extremely short black hair and what appears to be a receding hairline, which exposes his very prominent forehead, upon which he has a small tattoo of a skull.

Jacob noticeably lacks eyebrows, and has very small eyes with prominent dark circles; Jacob's nose is also considerably prominent, and his jaw is long and pronounced, offering much space between his chin and small mouth.

Jacob also has high, shallow cheekbones, and features distinct five o'clock shadow.

For attire, Jacob wears a purple spandex turtle neck, over which he sports a black blazer; and also wears black pants.

Jacob also wears a pair of black gloves, which feature oval designs on the knuckles, to go along with his black shoes.

## Personality

Jacob has been shown to be a respectful, dignified gentlemen, continually basking his comrade August with praise as well as mentioning the holiday in Alakitasia where they revere the elderly, even wanting to pay respects to Makarov Dreyar, an elderly enemy.

Due to his respectful nature, he shames the thought of nudity or indecency in regards to women, covering his eyes and looking away when in sight of the act.

He also possesses something of a patronizing nature, as evidenced by taking a sharp jab at Jura for his baldness and then snickering at his own joke after the fact.

Jacob can also be very demanding, tormenting Mavis Vermillion when giving her an ultimatum in order to save the guild's members lives in exchange for Fairy Heart's location.

Despite this trait, he does show a sense of loyalty toward his comrades, displayed by his anger at the sight of God Serena being felled by Acnologia and gearing himself to immediately retaliate, before August warned him of the futility of his attempt.

## Magic & Abilities

* Stealth: Also known as Assassination Magic, Jacob is a master at using this, and it has three distinct abilities; the first ability allows Jacob to erase his own presence, wherein he wipes out his ability to be seen, heard or smelled, thus allowing him to move about completely undetected, even if he was seen by people just prior. This physical invisibility can be negated by Magic that utilizes light, such as Regulus. Stealth's second ability allows Jacob to see things that would normally be invisible to others, such as Mavis to non-Fairy Tail members, and as such allows him to converse with, attack, and touch beings like her. Interestingly, it would appear that Jacob cannot actually see what he, himself, has made invisible with his Magic during its effect. The final function of Jacob's Magic is to attack with invisible weapons, which he displayed while torturing Mavis, as well as in his ensuing conflict with Natsu and Lucy, using invisible knives and a whip, among other things.

* Transport: This form of Spatial Magic allows Jacob to transport anyone to his own pocket dimension, doing so by clapping his hands, which has a range of up to no less than the entire perimeter of the Fairy Tail Guild. Upon completion of his clap, all those caught within his Magic will vanish, sans those with non-physical bodies, such as Mavis, and most notably her physical body encased in Lacrima: Fairy Heart; however, those that are indeed affected by this Magic are able to be harmed at the caster's discretion.

* Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: His Magic aside, Jacob has shown himself to be an extremely accomplished unarmed fighter, able to go toe-to-toe with Natsu in hand-to-hand combat, and even overwhelm him.

* Enhanced Strength: Jacob has been shown to hold a fair amount of physical strength, as he managed to send Natsu flying backward with a single punch, and then when he body-slammed him into the ground, destroyed the entire contacting portion of the floor.

* Immense Durability: Jacob possesses an immense amount of durability, best showcased when he received a very powerful kick from a Taurus-clad Lucy (that sent him flying into tables and thick support pillars), after which he got up with little-to-no-injuries This durability was then displayed yet again mere moments later, whereupon Jacob received a series of fire-clad-hits from the immensely strong Natsu, and received little-to-no injuries.

* Immense Magic Power: As a member of the Spriggan 12, Jacob's magical caliber is of an extremely high level. His Magic Power is stated to be on par with the strongest Mage in Ishgar and strongest of the Ten Wizard Saints, God Serena, and was stated to be roughly equal to that of fellow Shield of Spriggan Brandish μ's own, someone renowned for toppling entire nations single-handedly, and whose Magic Power exceeds Makarov's. Additionally, as a further testament to Jacob's strength, he, alongside just God Serena and August, destroyed the entire nation of Bosco and every single one of their guilds.

## Weapons

* Knives: On his person, Jacob carries throwing knives that he uses to conduct long-ranged surprise attacks.

* Gun: Jacob carries a gun which he uses to attack from a distance and is kept invisible due to his Stealth.

* Whip: Jacob carries a whip to attack with, keeping it invisible with his Stealth.
