Backstory
Jacob Lawson was born on 9th August 1989 to a somewhat wealthy family in Station Square. His mother was a G.U.N agent, whilst his father was a scientist there. Shortly after Jacob was born, his mother was on active duty somewhere pretty much all of the time. As he grew older, he and his father would talk to his mother occasionally on the phone, but hardly ever face to face. Jacob also had a knack for finding things that his father and other people had lost. This skill then began to develop as Jacob started school. He was always gathering facts and information about various topics and it was something he enjoyed doing as a child.
In late 2003, his mother had been sent on what is most probably considered the most dangerous G.U.N mission ever. A group of terrorists had nuclear warheads that were ready to be fired upon the U.F at any time. His mother was tasked with going to the terrorists location, finding the nukes and disarming them without being captured. She had managed to disarm the nukes and get the G.U.N military in to clean up, but during this process, there was a major firefight within the base which resulted in her and one other squad being kidnapped.
During the time that his mother was imprisoned, Jacob and his father had presumed that she had been killed. In mid 2004, G.U.N had officially declared Jacob's mother and the missing squad as "Killed In Action". He and his father both attended the funeral, despite there being no body to bury. However, his mother's supposed death did not upset Jacob as much as one would've thought. In fact, it inspired him.
Almost five months after the funeral, Jacob enlisted as G.U.N agent. For obvious reasons, he wasn't allowed on the field due to him being only 15 at the time. Instead, G.U.N used this time to train him and many others to become the best that G.U.N could offer. During his training, the G.U.N Science and Intelligence Division was founded by his father. There, they began work on various ways to enhance military troops to be more effective on the field.
In February of 2009, Lance Corporal Jacob Lawson had finished his training and, along with his squad, was given his first mission immediately. Their mission was to either kill or capture the terrorist leader who just happened to be in the exact location where his mother was taken to. However, nor Jacob or his squad knew this. When they arrived, they were instantly pinned down and trapped in an intense firefight for three hours. Troops from other squads were shot down quickly and two members from his were gone too. The new soldier was scared and tired, but determined to complete his mission. They fought through the base until suddenly, they had found his mother. At first the two of them were both in shock, but after a few seconds, they instantly recognised each other. Together, Jacob, his mother and his squad took down the terrorist leader and went home mostly intact.
After a long debriefing session, his mother was told that it was best that she'd not go on the field and instead take a few months leave. When his father finally saw her again, he was overjoyed, even to the point of crying with her. Because he successfully took out the terrorist leader and rescued his mother alive, Jacob was promoted to Sergeant.
Shortly after his promotion, his father had informed him that he was to be moved from the military to S.I.D. At the time, Jacob had no idea why and his father told him next to nothing about the projects he was about to partake in. However, he did know one thing. That project was codenamed, 'Lionhead'.

Appearance
Physical Appearance
Jacob is a somewhat muscular Ethiopian Wolf who is slightly above average for a Mobian or even a wolf. His body is mostly covered in a few layers of fine, red fur. His muzzle and chest are both white and the fur on the end of his tail gradually changes from red to brown as you look down it. Jacob's eyes are hazel, which is quite common for his species of wolf.
Attire
During his downtime, Jacob tends to wear his designer clothing. He likes to wear one of many of his designer shirts, a pair of denim jeans or chinos and light grey designer shoes with red decals.
When on active duty, Jacob is only allowed to wear a black shirt, navy blue combat jacket with the G.U.N and G.U.N S.I.D logos attached to it, navy blue combat trousers, a black utility belt, a combat vest, jet black boots, a pair of black gloves and his pistol's holster. If he were to wear any more than this, he would be disobeying G.U.N regulations for not looking professional. The only times where he is allowed to wear casual clothing whilst on active duty, is when he's undercover.
He sometimes also wears his Type-0 ' Lionhead ' Power Armour whilst on active duty and in intense situations. His armour is a matte black colour with a few scratches and has blue lights which are there to intimidate his enemy. The suit also increases his height, which is also designed to intimidate the enemy. His helmet's visor is tinted blue on the outside. On the inside, his visor gives him up to date information on his objectives and enemy locations. It also allows him to know how much damage his suit can take before taking damage himself.
Personality
Jacob is a fairly serious person, always following orders and dealing with tasks appropriately. Sometimes, however, he can show off and be very cocky. When people get in the way of what he is doing, he'll get annoyed easily and sometimes intimidate or injure the person to make them move.
He also has what some people call a "strange distaste toward romance". Jacob finds that romantic or sexual relationships with people distract him from his job and so he isn't attracted to anyone. He also dislikes it when people are kissing in public because of not being in a relationship. He also finds that developing friendships causes similar problems. When he joined G.U.N, Jacob cut all ties with his friends to make sure that he wouldn't be distracted.
During his downtime, Jacob is a lot more relaxed, but still fairly serious.
