	Unlike his sister, Jacob did not appear to be a fervent believer in [[the Creed]]'s tenets, preferring action over philosophical thoughts and a good fight over discretion. As such, he was ~~easily~~ dismissive of the Pieces of Eden, preferring to focus on his targets. Coupled with his reckless behavior, Jacob remained oblivious to the chaos created by his actions. Assassinating Starrick's Templar ~~associates~~ created as much harm as good, and when these consequences were brought up by Evie, Jacob simply dismissed them. Instead, he justified his actions by claiming he was doing something proactive in toppling Starrick's empire, unlike Evie, who was obsessed with finding the Shroud ~~of Eden~~.<ref name="ACS" />		Unlike his sister, Jacob did not appear to be a fervent believer in [[the Creed]]'s tenets, preferring action over philosophical thoughts and a good fight over discretion.

	However, complementing his impulsive and reckless behavior, Jacob was very good at thinking on his feet, part of the reason he survived his own recklessness. As a gang leader, he proved to be a capable criminal strategist and organizer. He could also be persuasive with some people, such as appealing to Frederick Abberline's professional pride in exchange for information.<ref name="ACS" />		However, complementing his impulsive and reckless behavior, Jacob was very good at thinking on his feet, part of the reason he survived his own recklessness.
