Jack Slash

Character from Worm by Wildbow

Jacob — leader of the Slaughterhouse Nine. His power extends knife edges; his real weapon is his voice. The most dangerous man alive speaks softly and makes monsters feel understood.

Also known as: Jack Slash, Jack, Jacob, King's Successor

What They Know

• Striker 5 / Thinker (secondary, subtle) — extends cutting edges of held blades up to dozens of feet; secondary shard-sense lets him read and subtly influence other parahumans
• Leader of the Slaughterhouse Nine for over a decade — the longest-running leader in the group's history
• His real danger is social manipulation — he can talk almost any parahuman into doubt, hesitation, or worse
• Personally recruited and groomed Bonesaw after killing her family — views her as his masterpiece
• His secondary Thinker power is why parahumans find him compelling and non-parahumans find him unimpressive — the effect is shard-to-shard
• Views mass murder as artistic expression and himself as a connoisseur of human breaking points
• Identified by Dinah's precognition as a potential trigger for an end-of-the-world scenario
• Cannot be effectively talked down, reasoned with, or bluffed — he is better at the conversation game than anyone he meets
