Title: Jacob Edenburgh
Artist: The Muse Ideal
Description: Jacob is an original character created by my best friend Sierra (on gaia as Requiem Rosario, if you want to read some of her work). I've added an excerpt from an untitled short story featuing Jacob in the below comments. In short, Jacob is a vampire created by Alistair Draven, his best friend in mortality, in seventeenth-century England. A former knight of the Court, Jacob was promoted to be Alistair's personal Chevalier after recieving the life-threatening injury that scarred his eye.

The many collected histories, the crumbling lexicons and thick, ancient volumes written in tongues that only he cared to understand surrounded him in all their colors and shapes, exposing no secrets that had yet to be seen and pondered by those fathomless violet eyes.
