New Character: Jakub

New Character: Jakub Sienieński

Jakub Sienieński joins the roster of Hellish Quart.

Jakub fights with a saber and smallsword, but his greatest weapon is not pure fencing technique. It is surprise.

He can begin a duel with his weapons still sheathed, waiting for the right moment to strike. From there, he can draw and cut with his saber in one lightning-fast motion, catching his opponent off guard before the fight has even properly begun.

And if the duel does not go his way, Jakub has another option.

When necessary, he can abandon the traditional saber and switch to a smallsword - a fashionable new weapon from France, and one his opponent may not be prepared to face.

Jakub Sienieński tries very hard to maintain appearances.

He wants to be seen as an honorable, traditional Polish nobleman. So when challenged to a duel, he will of course reach for his saber, at least at first.

But Jakub is not the kind of man who intends to die beautifully for the sake of honor. If things start going badly, he will not hesitate to use dirty tricks to survive.

A noble saber duel is one thing. Staying alive is another.
