He was brought up in a small family, having only one older brother, Dallas Sharpmen. He was like his father, George Sharpmen, in every way, who was also a marine in the UNSC at the time of his birth. His mother, Elizabeth Sharpmen, was a very old-fashioned woman. Jacob was brought up in a small town on Reach, his father farming when he was on leave. However, when his father was off, he learned the ropes from his brother by the age of seven. Learning to take orders at a young age made Jacob a very loyal and quant young man. He went to the best schools his parents could send him. His mother described him as an intelligent young boy, with a steadfast determination. Soon after, his brother left for the UNSC, he followed two years later at the age of 18. His parents retired and tended the farms by themselves. After he joined the military, he lost contact with his brother as well as his family. Hardly ever hearing from them, except on the rare occasions when he had leave. Meeting Abby was a rare occurence, he was on leave in 2526 on the planet of Genesis. Personal Interest Jacob does not have many interests, do to his high role in the military. However when he does get a chance to do things, he likes to hunt, as well as prepare and cook his own meals. He has a high interest in souvenirs of past battles, or any technology he comes across. During the Battle of New Harmony he found a rare energy sword with an encryption on the side. "Fight for Honor.. or Don't come Home" He kept it with him, because it slightly reminded him of his dad. Personality Jacob is a straight-foward, family orientated man. He sees no use in fighting with his family and likes to just have fun. But when the war started things changed for Jacob; he was in utter confusion when his brother, Dallas dissappeared never to see him again. For years on end he learned to hate aliens, wathching as planet by planet was glassed by them. In turn he conjured a hatred for elites and still has this hatred today. However, for the brutes, he saw the error in their ways, but when he met Delta, he realized things were changed. Jacob changed forever after the final days on Earth, when his best friend, Texas (Alias, no real name verified) sacrificed his life for the sake of everyone on Task Force 117. An elite group comprised of Fifty UNSC soldiers, who until recently was never known about. Military History The Second Battle of Earth Jacob was part of the Second Battle of Earth with an elite Task Force known as Task Force 117, comprised of fifty UNSC snipers and marksman.

Dallas Sharpmen: The older brother of Jacob Sharpmen, born on Reach July 23, 2500, little is known about Dallas. Most of his file covered in black ink. Until about 2537, Dallas was a part of UNSC/ONI. On Janaury 15, 2537, Dallas was decommisioned and court-martialed from the UNSC. From then on he lived as a mercanary, this is when we lost information on Dallas. Although we do know, he was "part" of the creation and survival of Task Force 117. Junior's Death and the Effect on Jacob After Junior's death, Jacob was relieved of duty by Vernette. He had a long discussion with Delta about some things. Afterwards, he went rogue and left the base. He headed back towards the forerunner structure were Junior died. He went on a blood-thirsty rage destroying any sentinel and killing any elite he saw. His revenge attitude quickly turned into a 'mission' in his mind. Here, he planned on blowing up the second elite facility, where he was faced by Mor'fal (see Enemies). Vernette and Delta became aware of him going rogue and set TF117 and ODST's under the command of Jimmy and Brian to find and locate him. Vernette and Delta went after some time of them not coming back. Jacob, after infiltrating the facility, was captured by Mor'fal but escaped with the help of Phoenix (see Artificial Intelligence Units). He managed to set the explosives in the compound and blew the place to shreds. Mor'fal survived however. Later, TF117 and Jimmy and Brians' team found Jacob and talked to him. Vernette and Delta came later. They got Jacob to come back. Delta also found a dogtag of Junior's which he gave to Jacob. When they came back, Vernette was angry with Jacob, and he was still stripped of his command. Later, TF117 went on another mission, where Jacob stayed behind. Friends Texas: Texas, (alias, real name - unvalid), was the best friend and leader of Task Force 117 (in 2553). Texas was also born on Reach in the same year as Jacob. His record serves as a primary example of the "perfect soldier." Texas partook in many battles with Jacob.. They were close, referring to eachother as brothers most of the time. Jacob looked up to Texas, as he was intelligent, funny, and his best-friend. At the First Battle of Earth, Texas formed a group known as "Task Force 117." It was comprised of fifty of Texas' close allies and best soldiers the UNSC had to offer. Jacob Sharpmen was with him during this battle. Other known associates; Dakota, Arizona, and Rhodes. Task Force 117 worked silently, without authorization from ONI or the UNSC. However, at a crucial moment in their operation, they were found by the Covenant. The Covenant destroyed their base with ease, sending brute minors and many grunts on the mission. The remaining units of Task Force 117 retreated to a warehouse up the hill, there were 5 pelicans waiting. Although, there were only about 40 of them left, in the last crucial moments; Two Brute Chieftans charged at the group, killing another four members in the process. The rest were able to retreat into the pelicans. Although, one of the pelicans crashed, knocking down a section of the wall, and the rubble covered Jacob, Texas, and Dallas (Jacob's brother confirmed in this engagement). Dallas was able to pick them up and take them to the pelican, as it lifted off it was hit with a banshee round. Texas almost fell out, but Jacob grabbed his hand. Texas valiantly sacrficed his life to save Task Force 117. His death was hard on Jacob, who left TF117 shortly after. Texas was 46 when he died. Tyber Vernette: Jacob fought with Tye many times. He became good friends with him during the Battle of New Harmony, here Jacob was knew to the team and figured he should try to make some friends. Jacob hit it off with Tye and they became good friends over the years. Knowing that Jacob had a friend he could trust,much like Texas, meant something to him. When Tye died in 2553, this struck Jacob hard when he heard the news. Preston Vernette: Commanding officer and friend of Jacob Sharpmen, Preston Vernette. Jacob looks up to Vernette and is extremely loyal to his and his ideals. Although, at times Jacob does get angry at his orders, or goes against them, they are for a good reason. On the other hand, the relationship between Vernette and Jacob increased dramatically when Jacob found out about Vernette being Nighthawk. A shock to Jacob, but this did not decrease his loyalty to him. On many occasions Jacob and Vernette will reinforce this notion of loyalty. No matter what, Jacob will be a friend of Vernette. Delta: Another good friend of Jacob is Delta. Although they do have their differences, their similarities are far greater. From the strength of love for their children, to their loyalty to Vernette. Jacob would take a bullet for Delta, which is not needed of course. He would stick with him through "thick and thin."

He first met Jacob on Genesis in 2539, this is when their first engagement happened. Jacob was captured by Flin and he tried to get information from him. Although, a Spartan II by the name of Mitch, (Mitchell-148) was able to locate Jacob and attempted to rescue him. Flin fought Mitch and Jacob for some time, until Mitchell finally told Jacob to run; which he did. Mitch then ran to explosives inside the Covenant base, and had enough time to wire some together. Flin stabbed Mitch from behind and picked him up, Jacob was only a few yards away and could see this, he went speeding towards Flin, but Mitch pulled a detanator and blew the place up. Jacob went flying, but awoke only a few minutes later. Flin was gaurded by Mitch's body and was able to retreat from Genesis.

When he came back in 2555, the UNSC was disbanded, as Director Vernette had taken over ONI. Falling Out with the UNSC Although in 2539, during the Battle of Genesis, Jacob led a coup against Vice Admiral Yates, who at the time had taken over command of Vernette's ship. This led to a falling out between Jacob and the UNSC. Jacob would have been demoted, without Nighthawk, who gave him valuable information on how to save himself, along with the others who joined him.
