Jim Lake

Jim Lake Juniors memory

He is the leader of Team Trollhunters who is chosen to be Merlin's champion as the first human Trollhunter and is trained by his mentor Blinky Galadrigal, set out to save both mankind and trollkind from Gunmar the Black and his Gumm-Gumm army, later becoming the co-leader of the Guardians of Arcadia alongside Douxie Casperan. He is also Dr. Barbara Lake's son. Around his fifth birthday, Jim's father walked out on him and his mother, Barbara. His mother then told him that they needed to take better care of each other. Jim has cared for his mother ever since. Sometime in kindergarten, Jim met Toby Domzalski, who became his new best friend. Eventually, Claire Nunez came to town and about a year before he found the amulet, Jim met her at a party held by her mother and subsequently fell deeply in love with her after seeing her dance alone to a song by Papa Skull. Although Jim didn't think she knew he existed, Claire had, in fact, noticed him and was impressed that he had at least attempted to dance during the party.

Jim lake juniors physical appearance

Jim is a rather tall, slim young man with blue eyes and short dark brown hair. He wears a blue zip-up jacket with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and a white shirt underneath. He has blue jeans and blue and white sneakers. While using the Amulet of Daylight, Jim wears a silver suit of knight's armor, complete with breastplate, pauldrons, blue trimmings, greaves, and sabatons. Underneath the armor, he wears a sort of black undershirt, although this inner layer has never been fully shown. While wielding the Amulet of Eclipse, this armor is black with red trimmings. Both armors have their respective amulets mounted on Jim's left chest and their swords stowed on the backs of the armors. In his half-troll form, Jim's skin pigment became blue, his hair became unkempt, he got two lower fangs, large horns, yellow sclera, pointy ears, and his right hand becomes bigger and loses its pinky finger, becoming more troll-like, while his left-hand remains human but armored. When he becomes fully-troll after pushing the Onyx Shard into his heart, Jim becomes bulkier with larger horns and sharper teeth. His eyes and linings glow yellow under his own control, yellow under the Green Knight's control, and purple under Claire's influence

Jim lake juniors personality

In the beginning of the series, Jim was first scene as the caretaker around his house, aiding his mother, Barbara Lake. Despite it being Barbara's job to take care of him, he likes taking care of her because of how much work she does as a doctor. He is also shown to have a reputation for being an all-around cool guy, though it is implied that this is just to get people to like him. Jim can get nervous often, as he didn't want to accept his new position as the Trollhunter, having never been in a fight before, or was too nervous to ask his crush, Claire, to the dance. However, when he perseveres and tries, despite his fear, he can succeed in his job, which proves how brave and hard-working he really is. Jim was also reluctant to kill people as part of his job, but when he started gaining more self-defense instincts, he became somewhat brave enough to do it. After getting used to being the Trollhunter, he was braver than ever, such as when fighting against Bular and the Changelings.

Jim’s Memory

Jim and Toby wake up one day and decide to ride their bikes to school together. Jim makes lunches for himself, his mother, and Toby. He then meets Toby outside and they make their way to school. They decide to take a shortcut to school through the large bridge, where they discover the Amulet of Daylight in the rubble of Kanjigar's body. The amulet starts ominously chanting Jim's name, which prompts the boy to pick it up and take it to school. They then continue to get to school, not knowing that two trolls, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! are eavesdropping on them. When they arrive at school, Jim stares dreamily at Claire, not paying attention to what is going on. When class ends, Jim's teacher, Mr. Strickler expresses concern over Jim's performance in class. He says that he understands that Jim and his mother have a lot on their plate, so he decides to schedule a parent-teacher conference to discuss Jim's behavior. In gym class, Jim tries to gain the courage to Claire by speaking some Spanish to her. Claire suggests that Jim should try out for the school's play of Romeo and Juliet. After class, Jim and Toby see that Steve is shoving Eli into a locker (after the latter told him of the trolls that have been lurking in town), and Jim decides to stand up to Steve. When Jim makes snarky comments about Steve, the jock challenges him to a fight, only to be stopped by Strickler. After school, Jim goes home to watch TV and decides to sell the amulet online. All of sudden, he hears something going on downstairs and hopes that it's just raccoons. He goes downstairs and finds that it's none other than Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! Jim is frightened by the two, who explain to him that the amulet is magical and he's been chosen to protect a magical land of trolls from the forces of evil, which causes Jim to faint and the two trolls to leave.

Jim’s memory

The next day at school, Jim goes to Mr. Strickler's office to explain what had happened, but since he probably wouldn't believe him, he tells him that he is trying out for chess. Strickler commends him on this "extracurricular activity" and Jim happily leaves, not knowing that Strickler is aware of the amulet in his bag. However, the amulet starts glowing again. He goes back to the canal to try to figure out more about the amulet and where it came from. When the amulet's gears shift, Jim takes it out of his bag and finds some writing on the back ("For the glory of Merlin, daylight is mine to command!") He says the incantation and suddenly, a suit of armor appears on him and a sword appears as well, leaving the boy in amazement and shock. Little does Jim realize that Mr. Strickler and Bular are eavesdropping on him since they were trying to steal the amulet for themselves. The next day at school, Strickler causes the Trollhunter armor to activate, and Jim uses the Romeo and Juliet play auditions to attempt to hide the true nature of the armor. Forced to audition, Jim uses Blinky's speech about destiny and winds up getting the part. Unfortunately, Stickler has also found out and is actually working for Gunmar. Jim starts using the sword and easily masters it with his slicing and dicing skills.One day, while training with Draal, Jim feels a little nervous about talking to Claire and the play. To help him, Draal gives him a special necklace that will boost his confidence and fearlessness. Unfortunately, Jim starts to act smug, arrogant, rude, and disrespectful towards his friends and teachers. To make matters worse, Jim decides to go fight Bular himself in the sewer. In this battle, Jim hears Bular call him "Young Atlas," which is Strickler's nickname for him, which causes Jim to figure out that Strickler is evil. Having found out about Stickler being evil, they come up with a plan to stop him

Jims memory

Jim begins having strange dreams about fighting Gunmar, and how he is going to defeat him. One day during a school assembly, Jim nominated from prom king, along with Steve and Eli. Toby encourages Jim to join in the election because it could help them become more popular, to which Jim reluctantly agrees. Later, Jim goes back to the Void for some advice from the other hunters, but they inform him that there is no possible way to get rid of Gunmar for good. However, Blinky calls Jim back to the library because he has some interesting news for him, Claire, and Toby. Blinky explains that there are three special gems called "The Triamburic Stones", which can help them destroy Gunmar. However, they are hidden in three different locations around the world, which means that the Trollhunters will have to go on their very first quest. The next day, Jim, Steve, and Eli compete against each other for the theme of the spring dance. While Steve and Eli are coming up with their own respective ideas (Hawaiian for Steve and 80s for Eli), Jim sees a Golem outside created by Strickler and Angor Rot to test his abilities. Jim fights the golem, which results in his clothes being covered in mud. After the golem is vanquished, Jim goes back into the gym all dirty. Toby and Claire use this as a metaphor for Jim’s theme: moles. Jim wins the challenge since moles are the mascot of the school. Unfortunately, Strickler returns to the school as the new principal (having done something to the old one), which leads to some large conflicts at school.
