History Characters / Timeline191ConfederateStatesofAmerica

* KickTheSonOfABitch: His attempted rape of Anne Colleton, who in addition to being a racist bitch and fellow Freedom Party supporter had no problem pimping African-American women out to her brother and her guests.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Jake thinks that Russian racism towards Jews, and Ottoman racism towards Armenians is idiotic seeing as Jews and Armenians are white men, at least in his mind. He also bawls out Patton for striking a shell shocked soldier, bluntly informing him that if he does it again, it will be the end of his career.

* KilledMidSentence: [[spoiler:"Get us some motorcars, and --" ''*bang*'']]

* LimitedAdvancementOpportunities: After Jake's commander, Jeb Stuart III, kills himself in a futile attack (to regain his honor after the black servant he protected from investigation, turned out to be a highly placed Red Rebellion leader), his powerful father makes sure Jake is blamed for it. Potter tells Jake that, thanks to the elder Stuart, he could serve in the Army until he died and would ''never'' advance past the rank of Sergeant.

* StartOfDarkness: Jake wasn't particularly likeable even at the start of the series but being made a scapegoat for the Red Rebellion, and denied promotion for it, even though he took initiative and reported suspicious behavior of his superior's black servant is what starts Jake on the road he'll take.

* VillainousVirtues: As an artilleryman, Jake proves himself to be committed, courageous, and determined. He's repeatedly goes on fighting under withering attacks, and ends up commanding the entire artillery company (and doing it well), despite still being a sergeant. He's an evil guy, even before he becomes the BigBad, but no one can accuse him of being a coward.

* DissonantSerenity: His reaction to [[spoiler: the U.S.'s dropping a superbomb on Newport News in retaliatory strike for him sneaking a superbomb into Philadelphia]] is to just nonchalantly snap his fingers and just say "who cares?".

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Jake thinks that Russian racism towards Jews, and Ottoman racism towards Armenians is idiotic seeing as Jews and Armenians are white men, at least in his mind. He also bawls out Patton for striking a shell shocked soldier, bluntly informing him that if he does it again it will be the end of his career.

* DissonantSerenity: His reaction to [[spoiler: the U.S.'s dropping a superbomb on Newport News in retaliatory strike for him sneaking a superbomb into Philidelphia]] is to just nonchalantly snap his fingers and just say "who cares?".

The great-grandson of Nathan Bedford Forrest and rose the C.S. Army's Chief of Staff during the Second Great War. In spite of Featherston's campaign to purge the Confederate Army of the unqualified aristocracy, Jake Featherston valued Forrest highly for his willingness to speak his mind, and for his visions of how to use barrels unlike many of his aristocratic contemporaries who were descendants of the C.S. Founders. [[spoiler: When the war begins going south for the Confederacy, however his increasing doubts on Featherston's sanity grow into an attempt at a coup to save the Confederacy from total destruction]].

* HonestAdvisor: He's one of the few people who will genuinely speak frankly to Jake, though Jake being Jake it doesn't mean his advice will be taken.

* NumberTwo: As the Confederate Army Chief-of-staff, he's Jake's main military advisor.

A high-ranking Confederate general, and a veteran of The Great War, Patton is one of Jake Featherston's favourite bagmen, and spearheads the assault on Ohio, later commanding at the battles of Pittsburgh and Birmingham.
