Albion's Greatest Evil | Jack of Blades | Full Fable Lore
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ต.ค. 2024
- Jack of Blades is the greatest evil and enemy that any Hero across Albion has come across. Not only did he almost destroy Albion during his quest to acquire The Sword of Aeons, but he came back in a new form in an attempt to destroy Albion again. Jack is an ancient evil that has lived since before The Old Kingdom.
In this lore episode, I explore the origins of Jack of Blades and attempt to explore what he truly is. Where did Jack come from? Why is he obsessed with acquiring The Sword of Aeons? How is he aware of the ancient heroic bloodline of Albion and how far will he truly go to achieve his quest? I look to answer these as I explore Jack of Blades in Fable.

I hope they find a way to incorporate jack in the upcoming game. My absolute favorite fable villain.
I want to see the knight and queen
New game is apparently a reboot of the series.
So it's possible?
Tbh I just wanted an HD remaster collection and a PC release for fable 2
@cool dude He's not dead. Gone? Sure. Dead? Nope.
i think its been confrimed he is in the new game.
@@tadeojax685 Fuck off, bot.
Ah yes the man, the myth, the legend, Jack of blades
Keep it up my guy
Honestly, I think Jack is still alive. He’s one of those villains that always finds a way to survive even the most final of defeats.
It wouldn’t even surprise me if he was the Corruptor himself. Retreating into the void and absorbing all that dark power for himself. It would be fitting, William and his lineage took all his power, why not claim his?
If you read your sister's letter in Fable 2, it is pretty obvious that a hooded man says that they will see each other again soon. So it is possible :)
@@Tharrilicious that's supposed to be the hero from the first game i thought?
@@karmitdafruge1 I don't know. Maybe their destiny formed them to one meaning..
@@Tharrilicious The hooded figured has been confirmed as Schythe. Still pretty sure Jack is more than able to cheat death
@@muskatDR that's interesting thank you! :)
One if my favourite villain, if not my favourite video game character of all time. Not having him or the court in the newest Fable title would be a giant sin and i would easily have him as a villain over 3 games! Just seeing him in the game would bring me so much excitement
So jack finds out where the hero's family is staying and immediately start a bandit attack! why not just go in calmly, did he really need to kill everyone? 😅 what if the bandits killed all the Heroes by mistake.
One of my absolute favorite villains in any game, Jack is so underrated and I really do hope he's somehow involved in the new installment. There's so much to work with for the Court.
Amazing video, thank you for this!
My theory is that there was a Hero named Jack. He’s the one that people see as a Hero and celebrate his return. At some point, perhaps when Hero Jack left for all that time, he finds Jack of Blades and is possessed by the mask. Jack gets the favor of the people and all that Hero Jack had before.
That's a really good theory. Not something that I've thought about!
I think the reason Jack is celebrated but is also the biggest villain is that, through many years of different Jack of Blades' Arena wins, he's become a sort of moniker. There's the doubt that he's some immortal lich, then there's the doubt that it could be some underdog in his image. It gives credence to the dichotomy of public opinion we see.
Are you implying there are multiple Jacks out there? it seems the mask is magical and unique to him.
Ayyyy my favourite video game villain, prolly cause he was the first villain I had faced in my video game history that I remember :)
Guildmaster's Question: Who is more powerful? Maze or The Guildmaster?
I think the Guildmaster himself would be upset if I didn’t say the Guildmaster sooo
Well maze letteraly defeated all three of the cult members and the guild master was defeated by one soooooo yea 🙃
Maze
Maze cause guild master is a healer.
@@godhasbeendeadforaverylongtime Wait Maze? Maze was literally serving them
Subscribed. I love the Fable series. All 3 of them. I'm so happy someone is doing/did Lore videos.
Jack of blades is American 🇺🇸
The Lore Behind Jack of Blades
The best enemy!
He really is. I enjoy using Solus Greatsword to slay him properly.
hey man i really enjoy your channel, found it today through this video. you happen to be covering several of my most favorite games/series and cant wait for more
Cool, thanks!
YES! This kind of joy, even Jack can't destroy.
My alltime favourite Video Game Villain! Even above Ganondorf.
Jack is the best villain!
@@Skyrionn Do you prefer his original high pitched voice or his demonic one? I like the high pitched one.
Your channel is incredible man. Keep it up, your content is awesome.
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
YOU ARE GETTING SO CLOSE TO 10K!
Seriously keep up the great work my friend :) this video is awesome by the way, I am currently watching it right now :)
I was deeply in love with him when I was 10. And even now he's a "comfort character" to me.
Even though he burned the hero's village, cut out his sister's eyes, and imprisoned his mother for decades (and genocided people for not worshipping him and his fellow deities?)
So jack finds out where the hero's family is staying and immediately start a bandit attack! why not just go in calmly, did he really need to kill everyone? 😅 what if the bandits killed all the Heroes by mistake.
The Jack of blades, the video we were all waiting for! Good work dude. Not to spoil the video, but I also didn't recognize scythe's true identity!
I finally got around to making it! If you want to learn more about The Old Kingdom and William Black, I do have a timeline of those events.
When the upcoming Fable game releases you will be the first channel I will watch regarding it’s content. So glad to see someone put that much effort and dedication to a series not many people care about these days
It does come from a genuine love of the series. Glad that there are still a ton of fans out there. I appreciate the continued support!
Great as always Sky
Thanks again!
jack of blades is so cool, easily one of the most infamous villains in fable
Jack Of Blades is one of the best and coolest villains of all time.
holy shit Scythe being william black makes scythe so much cooler. I have no idea how I never caught on to that.
I really wish we got to see more of him through the series
Jack was by far the most interesting villain in these storys. Didnt care much about the rest. But then again they closed because of lack of vision :)
Jack is my favorite Villain.
Hands down my favorite villain. Not to often I’m sad defeating a villian but I was with Jack and I haven’t been since he’s the only one. I wanted to know more back in 05’ Fable 1 was imo a perfect game.
From one lore bro to another: great vids, king 🔥🔥🔥 Keep it up homie! You got my sub 🤙
Appreciate it! Thank you
👏🏽Hey man this is pretty cool. Keep doing what you enjoy.
Thank you, I will. Thanks for watching!
Love your channel, I personally would not mind a look into the cults rise to power, if you already did this then no problem, love the Fable lore
am i the only one who really would love to see what the queen and the knight of blades were like?
would be been cool if Lucien finds Jack's mask in fable 2.
or if scythe showed up shortly in 3 to give info on the option of a mask that might help fight the creeper as an evil option.
I would LOVE that!
@@Skyrionnoh it would've made fable so dope
Starting to tap the bottom 😂😂😂😂 keep up the good work, lad!
Thanks for your dedication of watching them all! I'm sure you'll see a vast difference in the length and quality of the videos too :D
That was an awesome vid! Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
If there was a top ten fable villains list, Jack of Blades would definitely be #1. Although I will say that for me Reaver comes pretty close to first place
He'd absolutely be there! So iconic.
The one I’ve been waiting for cheers skyrrionn
I said I would get around to it!
Given that there were two other masks from the Queen and Knight. I wouldn't be surprised if the reason he held onto them wasn't sentimental. It was backups should he need a new vessel.
The queen and knight of blades souls were still in those masks, but because they were so much more powerful and in the period of fable LC it was much harder for him to find a suitable vessel for them nevermind himself.
Awesome video dude
Anyone excited for the reboot because I am! I hope Jack is in it.
They should have kept the original creepy voice until the prison so he’d seem trustworthy in the beginning..missed opportunity..I hope Someone mods it one day
been watching a lot of these, fell in love with the games from the original a friend had then I bought 2 and 3
I now have both again ☺️
Hello I love your videos and channel and subscribed. Hope to see more!
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it! There's much more to come
@@Skyrionn great! Watching more of your lore videos and I love them.
If they ever do another Dable game they REALLY need to bring Jack Of Blades back! Hes easily the most dynamic villain ever made by LionHead Studios by 10 miles!
Yesssss! I love jack of blades.
I believe Jack is alive too. Like Alduin he is only truly defeated if you travel into the void and abolish what's left of him there. Jack is not just a mask. The mask acts as a conduit for him to materialise in the real world. I believe a Gollum like figure will find one of the masks in the bottom of a lake... *cue the Ring theme*
I wonder what the banshee's are, is the banshee in the list of lore behind?.
They're on the list! Slowly working through :)
Calling it now! Next fable game will end up facing the hero of oakvale as Jack of blades.
Cool thought!
Im on that Jack of Blades grindest
It never occurred to me that the other two masks were the Queen and Knight, not just spares. That's surprisingly sentimental for someone/something like Jack.
Then again, the wise-cracking Freddy Krueger thing they stuck him with in Lost Chapters felt horribly out of character too.
I hope they bring back the Court of Blades and dragons
Jack Of Blades is American 🇺🇸
@@Endgame707 Mostly because he's a better antagonist than the current villains from the sequels
I feel like there should have been a boss monster quest for each monster type like the wasp queen.
If the Fable 4 rumors are true and the game will hop planets, time and dimensions, then I wouldn't be shocked if Jack and the rest of the court of blades return. Of course those could be BS which is fine by me. As long as Fable 4 lets the player do and become literally whatever and whoever they want, has that classic British charm/humor and feels true to the previous games, I'll be happy. I would like to see Jack return though, I'd also like to see Scythe/William Black come back and actually flesh all this lore out in game.
I'm pretty sure that rumour came out with the fake trailer. Cool concept but I don't think it is real!
I wish jacks mask acted like a facehugger at the end 😂
I hope he comes back in fable 4, but being reincarnated and lost all his memory. It would’ve been awesome that the hero now in fable 4 would be childhood friends with jack of blades reincarnation. Jack of blades will slowly be reminded of his past, and starts to become evil. The hero try to save his friend from evil, and failed many times as they get older. Finally, jack of blades will finally get defeated by the hero, and you’re given the choice to kill him or not. And so on LOL
I'm unsure on whether I'd like to see him again. It would be pretty cool though!
Plot twist the queen of blades from fable and the queen of blades from starcraft are the same thing
a few things im confused on id like cleared up if possible, did jack exist before the corruptor? saying william black spit out the corruptor (after stealing the sword) is it possible it was a manifestation born from both william and the sword? is the sword perhaps with a host, a possessor of sorts a grand master? An "if so" arch villain it would be then wouldnt it.
lil bit o juicy extra, in the fable anniversary teaser trailer, it shows Jack of blades from behind for a FEW SECONDS, as he pulls his hood up and we see (at least in the first fable) that Jack has short black hair, in fact to me, it looks like the default hair for fable, lol
Love this !
I always liked to imagine Jack of Blades was a primordial demon god, essentially the antithesis of primordial gods. Hence his extreme power.
Him and the other members of the court were probably born from the "Void" or whatever entity embodies the void itself, which it seems has never (directly) revealed itself to us.
Jack literally just represents a maxed out rpg character, the mask representing player control I think.
The hero kept the mask for it’s power which is why Jack is back in Fable 4.
Good theory
@@Skyrionn Actually the new owner of Fable had said that Jack of Blade will make a return.
Oh I've not seen that. Have you got a source or link confirming? ☺
I know one of the people that’s making people.
@@samuelcurtiss6666 if you have information about the game, I'd happily have a chat with you about it?
Since we don't truly get the actual ending like they don't specify that he actually died what if he actually took over the mind of your character and eventually didn't need the mask but still made one just in case that if the one he had broke he at least had spares or if he did lose that mask what if he actually did just make replicas and they're just all around and he can permanently be around after you know the death of his two allies
Oh new video. Should be good
What is their goal? Why do they want domination? It’s more of a means to an end than an actual objective.
Hey it's the one about the best Skyrionn discord mod 👀
What about the theory that says that the actual Theresa died and the Theresa that we know in fable 2 and 3 is the Queen of blades
The Knight of blades was the trio’s Fredo
Jack of Blades is my favorite Villain
Those screamers were kinda havin some issues there
Huge issues
They should have made a prequel to Fable instead of fable for and have it be defeating the original jack of blades
Whats better fable anniversarie or fable 3
Absolutely Anniversary.
@@Skyrionn , Fable 2.
Jack being a rascal
Oooo piease of candy
My only suggestion for the video is that it should have been when I read it. Would have made the viewers brains die while I was reading it
Noice
@@massiveestoslav6677 Noice
I'm loving these videos but when it comes to anniversary graphics for this game they look weird. I'll always prefer the original.
Do you guys think Jack carries around the masks of the other two because he hopes to bring them back? Or does he genuinely miss them? Or both?
Eternity is boring lol
@@williamconwell6105 Not what I asked... lol
He is a true badass
One of the best villains of my childhood.
@@Skyrionn indeed
The mask is Jack of blades.
Be cool though if jack actually tried to resurrect the other blades
During the time of fable LC, finding a vessel powerful enough to hold their souls was difficult. They were both much more powerful than and required even stronger vessels than jack to host.
Noice
I'm not a Hero.
I successfully succeed...
And henceforth it was known that the great peoples of Albion, were the originators of the term Jack Ass!
erly bruv
So technically Jack is a demon ? He seems lesser than a god
Scythe is William black... WHAT?!?!
Yup :D
Howdy to anyone that doesn’t read this
👍🏻
Just bodied Jack of Blades, gonna beat the dlc tomorow
👍🏻❤️
The mods are watching lol
ALWAYS WATCHING
@@Skyrionn ALWAYS
I want theresa and my gun back in the next game
