History--
A once renowned magician, Jake Lancett went criminally insane after a grim magic-show-mishap. After murdering untold amounts of innocent civilians, he was confined to a sanitarium until he later escaped. Now, Lancett roams the city day and night performing tricks for reluctant passerbys, and slaughtering anyone that unknowingly reminds him of that ill-fated day when he lost all semblance of his sanity.

Hobbies--
Sporadically performing magic tricks in crowded city squares







Creator Comments--
Like many artists, much of my inspiration comes from actual circumstances and personal experiences. Jake Lancett was developed after an interesting discussion with a few of my friends, concerning the idea of a talented magician being sent to a sanitarium. Why, he'd drive all the nurses mad, naturally. One minute they lock him in solitary confinement, the next minute, they turn around and he's standing right in front of them bellowing "how do I dooooooo it?!" And of course, moments after they bind him in a straight jacket, he's out again, frolicking down the asylum halls, pulling rabbits and doves out of his gown. To quote my good friend; "he'd escape from the asylum, and be out on the street trying to pay for a taxi with quarters he's pulled out of peoples' ears." The idea of an insane, homicidal magician as a character was just too great to pass up... And so, with a few alterations, a character design and a magnificent stage name, "The Legendary Jake Lancett" was born.

Heheh, thanks. I know I won't win, but I just love contests so much... Don't know why. Well, we'll see what happens. People don't generally go for the "insane" type...

If I weren't a surgeon, I'd probably be a serial killer.
:iconadelaar1:
Well It would be nice if you did.
I have wanted to enter several contests already, but school has been getting in the way of everything. No fair >.<

Bloody hell man!
... I wanna watch all the fancy magic tricks...
... I wanna be amazed... T.T

Heheh, I certainly hope I at least place somewhere... My self-esteem will be crushed, otherwise. I'm such a competitive weenie. XDD

Heh, I know what that's like, not having time for anything... Luckily, I have nothing better to do at the moment.

Haha, you sure about that? He's pretty f*ckin' crazy... And homicidal... One wrong move, and you could lose your head! (Although I'm sure he IS quite amazing...)

Well, I'd give you a specialicious prize, but alas, it doesn't count.

>.< Lucky You. *envious*

Yea, sure, why not? Magic tricks are fun.
And if I were to get mah head lopped off... well... I'd be dead so I wouldn't really give a damn. XD
Unless I could haunt people... That'd rock. ^_^; But I digress...

Ah well. *sigh* XDD

Heheh, it actually kinda sucks, because having so much free time means I get to reflect on everything that sucks.

................................................You'd be willing to risk your life to see a magic trick...? That doesn't quite seem like a fair deal... (Although yes, haunting would rock. ^_____^)

:iconadelaar1:
lol ^^;

Fair? Something's fair? o.0
Well... why not, a number of things could kill me anyways.
I suppose though, it should be a damn good magic trick. However, I'd prefer more than one.

...Don't worry, in exchange for your life, you'd probably be able to sqeeze out five or six tricks from him. XDD
