{{Tab}}Jake is a born New Yorker. He grew up the oldest of three in a comfortable middle-class home, extremely close to his brother and sister, the child of a civil rights lawyer and a university librarian. His early life was comfortable, as these things go. Not luxury, not poor; he did OK in school, did OK in sports, occasionally dabbled in side hobbies here and there that his parents indulged. Attended church and Sunday school with a minimum of complaining. Summers at camp. Ice skating and fencing and tennis lessons that never went anywhere, saxophone and krav maga lessons that did. Graduated solidly around the middle of his class and continued on, as expected, to college. It seemed like he should have been on track to a quiet respectable white-collar job when he finished; it startled everyone in his family when he elected instead to join the NYPD. His liberal parents were flustered and a little bit thrown by the decision (after all, they'd only just put up a Black Lives Matter sign in their front yard!) but, overall, supportive of his decision to Help The Community. Jake has gotten no less determined in the intervening years to help the community -- but a lot of time spent on reddit and eventually falling in with the Purifiers has given him a more /narrow/ view of who The Community is.

His early life was comfortable, as these things go. Not luxury, not poor; he did OK in school, did OK in sports, occasionally dabbled in side hobbies here and there that his parents indulged. Attended church and Sunday school with a minimum of complaining. Summers at camp. Ice skating and fencing and tennis lessons that never went anywhere, saxophone and krav maga lessons that did.

It seemed like he should have been on track to a quiet respectable white-collar job when he finished; it startled everyone in his family when he elected instead to join the NYPD.
