Jak also known as "Allomancer Jak" and "Gentleman Jak", is a Scadrian nobleman, a Tineye, and an explorer.
Appearance & personality
Jak has a large mustache, long hair, and glasses.
Jak is arrogant, not very clever, and often makes improbable claims about his adventures. However, he is quite lucky and as a result generally succeeds. He writes very sloppily, with many spelling and grammar errors that then have to be corrected by Handerwym, his Terris steward. Occasionally he refuses to allow him to correct his spelling and grammar. He is often helped out of scrapes by his lover Elizandra Dramali and by Handerwym. He finds Elendel extremely dull [1].
Waxillium considers him a fop, though he respects that he's at least willing to get out of his house.

History
Early Adventuring
Jak explores many distant and dangerous locations. He was thrown into the ocean in "Allomancer Jak and the Mask of Ages" while tied to a bust of the Survivor (or the Lord Mistborn). He claims to have swum through river rapids in "Allomancer Jak and the Waters of Dread", although this may not have actually happened.[1]
The Pits of Eltania
During a later adventure Jak ventured to the Pits of Eltania in search of the survivor's treasure. He believed he was to be initially executed for some unknown transgression against the local Koloss tribes.[2] While going to be executed Jak was allowed to say goodbye to his acquittances. Handerwym while embracing Jak managed to return his gun to him, Jak then used the gun to escape his bonds and kill his executioner. Jak resolved then to be accepted by the Koloss tribe as one of their own, he also came to believe that he was now King of the tribe.[2]
He would be challenged by a Koloss and managed to kill them with his gun. This was apparently part of his plan to be accepted by the Koloss but Handerwym felt it was not a good one.[1] Jak would later wake up alone in a cave within a canyon and believed himself trapped there. After searching for an exit he would eventually decide to dive into a river below him. He then managed to exit the river near ta group of Koloss. The Koloss brought him over to their tribe leaders who offered to make Jak into a Koloss believing him to be worthy of joining the tribe. Jak also discovers that his girlfriend, Elizandra Dramali is Koloss blooded and herself a previous member of the tribe. Dramali tries to explain the process to Jak so he can choose but he interrupts her and devices a plan to not be made into a Koloss. Jak proclaims that he is already a Koloss and that he will prove it by recovering the survivors treasure from the bottom of a lake. He was successful in this endeavour and the Koloss were pleased to discover a cache of Hemalurgic spikes within it. Jak then discovered the box containing the spikes was made of aluminium, pleased with the find he left the tribe with Elizandra. They would later have to go back upon realising they had left Handerwym behind.[1]
Publishing
His sensationalized adventures are published in The Elendel Daily and The House Record.[3][2] These versions are unedited by Handerwym and as a result are terribly written. Handerwym then takes several episodes and combines them into one volume that he edits and annotates. The annotations generally consist of humorous insults and corrections. A story about Nicelle Sauvage in The New Ascendancy is published under an "Allomancer Jak presents" logo,[4] suggesting that Jak may help publish the stories of other adventurers.
Trivia
Jak does not think he is lying when he recounts his stories.[5]
