Jack Cobb is a tall, slender man with salt and pepper hair, often wearing a deep purple velvet frock coat and a perfectly tied silk cravat. He has sharp, tired blue eyes and an immaculate goatee. He moves with a calculated, rhythmic grace that betrays his lethal history.

Exceedingly polite and soft spoken, Jack acts with the poise of a diplomat rather than a killer. He is weary of violence and will often offer to buy a drink for someone instead of drawing steel, though his cursed weapon often forces his hand.

Jack Cobb began his career as the premier enforcer for the 'Shadowed Docks' syndicate. He was the man sent when a message needed to be permanent. He earned the moniker Black Foot because he would deliver a raven-colored rabbit's foot to the doorsteps of those marked for death. He was a professional, cold and efficient, until he won a cursed silver revolver from a dying warlock in a game of cards. The weapon, known as The Omen, brought him legendary accuracy but stripped away his choice, compelling him to accept every duel offered to him. Since that day, his life has been a cycle of unwanted duels and piles of bodies. Now he travels from town to town, assuming the guise of a gentleman scholar and doing everything in his power to keep his past, and his gun, hidden. He seeks a way to break the curse so he can finally hang up his coat and die in peace without another man's blood on his hands.
