Re: [CANON] Jake Muller || Resident Evil 6 || reserve || 3 of 4
Here’s a link to the plot to RE6: Wikipedia
Jake Muller on Resident Evil Wikia: RE Wikia
Brief summary: (Contains spoilers to the game’s plot)
Jake was born in Edonia, though he was conceived in the U.S. His mother fell ill while he was young. Though she tried, she couldn’t support him when her illness progressed, so he found himself supporting her instead. Not long after he became a mercenary, hoping to bring in enough money to actually help his mother, she succumbed to the illness. He took the loss of his mother very hard, but grew up with the thought that money was important, even though it didn’t really matter anymore.
From then on, he continued as a soldier of fortune until meeting Sherry Birkin, a US Agent sent to locate him for his unique anti-bodies. His blood was the key to a preventative cure for the Chrysalid Virus. When he found this out, he insisted on a fifty million dollar compensation price for one pint of his blood, to which Sherry agreed. They fought their way through infected J’avo in Edonia only to be captured by Carla and held in a facility in China for six months. There they discovered similar J’avo and finally escaped. They encountered many Raccoon City survivors on their trek, including Leon Kennedy, Chris Redfield, and Ada Wong.
It turns out Carla used Jake’s anti-bodies to enhance the C-Virus while he was being held in the facility in China. They continued to fight through China, at first, to meet with Derek Simmons at the extraction point, only to learn that it was Derek himself that caused most of this mess with the C-Virus to begin with. After being captured a second time, they are aided in their escape unknowingly by Chris and Piers. They finally destroy the BOW that has been following them since Edonia and make their escape. Jake lowers his asking price from fifty million dollars to a mere fifty dollars and goes about his business as a man for hire. He is last seen in the game helping out a young middle-eastern boy who has hired him to get rid of a hand full of Napad BOWs for the asking price of a single apple.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
Jake’s strengths would include his speed and physical strength, his intensity and martial arts. Some weaknesses would be his hotheadedness along with his overconfidence. He’s intelligent, but he doesn’t often use his brain before he acts. He shoots his mouth off, which can be considered a weakness. He seems to have the natural ability to lead, though has issues taking orders. His immunity to viruses could be considered a strength.
Abilities:
Jake is highly trained in hand to hand combat with immense strength in his attacks, which tend to resemble his father’s to a frightening degree, despite having never met the man. He’s capable of picking up and learning languages quickly, taking no time at all to learn to speak and read them fluently. He possesses unique antibodies in his blood, a trait passed on from his father. It’s this very trait that renders him immune to the C-Virus. As a mercenary, he is skilled in the use of many different weapons, though he seems to prefer unarmed hand to hand combat. He demonstrated a remarkable talent for playing the piano, performing a small piece of Chopin’s work with ease.
Re: [CANON] Jake Muller || Resident Evil 6 || reserve || 4 of 4
[The train pulls to a halt, jostling the sleeping man from his slumber. Noise bustles around him, but he pays it no mind. He was finally here.
Standing from his seat, he rolls his shoulders to coax the circulation back into his sleep-addled body and pulls his bag from the overhead storage compartment. It drops to the floor with a heavy fwump. He never brings more than what he needs and what he carries is all that he owns. Life is simple that way.
He steps off the train and looks up into the bright sun and—]
What the…?
[This is not where he was supposed to meet Sherry! He turns to face another passenger to ask exactly where he was only to find he is quite alone.]
Where the hell am I? Must’ve boarded the wrong one at the station.
[Jake rubs the back of his neck to massage the stress out of it. He had better text Sherry and tell her he is going to be a bit late.
He turns to step back onto the train just in time for the doors to shut and lock him out.]
Hey!
[He hammers a fist against the metal frame trying to get someone’s—anyone’s attention, but it groans and hisses into motion under his fist, already disembarking for another unwitting resident.]
Third Person:
Roughly seventy-two hours ago a message was delivered to an agent of the United States Division of Security Operations. This message contained sensitive information of the highest classification and as such it demanded immediate action. The sender was offering detailed information on the whereabouts of several Bio-organic Weapons as well as months of tracking data on these small outbreaks. The promise of this information along with the sender’s name set the retrieval of this information as a priority one. The only question now was; What is the price? That being said, no one was surprised when a follow-up message detailed said price.
The brunette smirked to himself as he slid his phone shut and reclined back in a chair at the airport lobby. He’d been tracking and eliminating B.O.W.s for the last year or better, shooting a certain D.S.O. agent texts now and then between jobs. They were senseless little texts, but he wanted to keep in contact with her. She never missed a reply.
This was his first time back in the states in quite a while. Given his work and past, this wasn’t surprising in the least. However, Jake Muller was far from anxious. He was rather relaxed, fiddling idly with a memory chip between his fingers, much like someone would toy with a coin. The information on the storage device was classified, but one would never guess that with how carelessly he was twiddling it between his fingers. It wasn’t so much that he was careless, it was more along the lines of his overconfidence. If someone were to attempt a heist, he would simply take it back. Preferably by force.
Jake closed his eyes, reclined back in the chair as he was, he could almost take a nap while he waited for his ‘escort’. It didn’t take long for something to catch his attention, ending his nap rather abruptly. Oddly enough, it was a simple smell. A somewhat muted, floral perfume wafted his way. Not your typical run-of-the-mill perfume. It gave one the impression it was expensive, likely imported from France, nothing you would find at your local Walmart. Normally, women’s perfume would hold no interest to Jake, but this familiar scent brought nostalgia with it.
It painted the picture of a barge; water slapping the sides of boats and docks. Fire and apprehension set the atmosphere with a hint of sweat and grime. It was dark and if one listened hard enough, they could hear the sound of chaos in the distance. The rev of a chainsaw sent a jolt of adrenaline through the body, adding an extra edge to the apprehension that already existed. A woman on a tether swung out of the darkness, swooping through the air to snatch his savior from certain doom, depositing her in the safety of his arms. A flash of black and red was all he saw, but that expensive perfume clung to Sherry’s clothing briefly after the encounter.
So, naturally, Jake’s eyes popped open just in time to see a similar flash of black and red as the woman disappeared into the crowd. The mercenary jumped from his semi-comfortable resting place in an attempt to follow her. He pushed through the crowd of people, but it seemed a futile effort. The woman was as slippery as she had been back in China. Honestly, he really didn’t know what he would have done or said had he actually caught up with her, so it was probably better that she vanished.
“Jake!”
A voice caught his attention, bringing an immediate smile to his face. He turned in the direction of petite agent and let out a short, amused chuckle.
“Well, if it isn’t Supergirl.”
“Don’t act so surprised! You’re the one who insisted I be here.” Sherry replied, smiling despite herself.
“Did I?” He feigned innocence, though, when he realized it didn’t suit him, he smirked knowingly. “Oh yeah, I might have said that.” Jake nodded his head to the side in a curt motion towards the exit. “Hungry? Airline food sucks no matter what country you’re in.”
