Appearance: Jim is about 5’6” with a slim build. By his own admission he has skinny legs. He has blue eyes and short sleek black hair. Generally, Jim appears as an unassuming, tired young man with an unseen burden weighing on his shoulders. Unarmored, Jim wears a blue zip-up jacket with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and a white shirt underneath. He has blue jeans with a black belt and high-top blue and white sneakers. While using the Amulet of Daylight, Jim's armor was a silver suit of knight's armor, complete with a breastplate (the chest area), pauldrons (the shoulder areas), vambraces (the forearm areas), gauntlets (the hand areas), cuisses (the thigh areas), poleyns (the knee areas), greaves (the leg areas), and sabatons (the feet areas), and the amulet in the middle of Jim's heart with blue trimmings. Underneath the armor, there was a black inner layer.

On the surface, Jim appears to be an average 18-year-old student. He goes to school, stays out of trouble, looks after his mom, and selflessly puts others above himself. But there's a piece of him that yearns for a life of adventure outside the doldrums of suburbia. When destiny calls and a magical Amulet chooses Jim to be the first human Trollhunter, the protector of a secret world of Trolls living beneath his hometown, Jim is thrust into the greatest adventure of his life. Whether it's rogue gnomes, mischievous goblins, or Trolls of the worst kind, Jim has a lot to learn if he wants to live to see graduation.

Jim was shown being the caretaker around the house, cooking meals for himself and 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 newer 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 is very protective of his loved ones, to the point where he might be considered overprotective. To keep his loved ones safe, like his friends Toby, Claire, Blinky, Draal, AAARRRGGHH!!!, or his mom, he will often try to keep them out of a fight and finish it alone, taking many risks to keep them safe. Another sign of his overprotectiveness is that he's willing to lie to his mom about his Trollhunting(as she’s VERY unaware of what Jim is doing,most humans aren’t even aware that trolls exist)to keep her from worrying about him. This puts a big strain on their formerly close relationship, but Jim does it nonetheless believing it is best she doesn't know or get involved in the Troll world.

He's definitely willing to keep lying for his loved ones' safety no matter what the consequences are, even when they spoil his "good boy" reputation toward the people he knows like his teachers, Claire, and especially his mom. Despite being overprotective and a little bumbling, he knows when he can't accomplish things without help from his team. It's also something he's been learning to overcome.

Trolls are a ‘primitive’ underground dwelling species,only coming out at night as sunlight will kill/permanently turn them into a stone statue. Many are towering, muscular and typically stand easily over 7’0” and can get to 8-9’0” though some can get taller. They are also often depicted as incredibly strong, prideful, stubborn creatures that enjoy a good brawl, crudeness, and a night out of drinking ‘Glug’—Trollish moonshine. There are several different tribes of trolls, all with distinctive features yet still translatable as ‘troll’. Trolls will eat basically everything a human considers inedible— trash,rocks,clothing items left out, sometimes even stray animals in the streets. Or, a few such as the Gumm-Gumms, will go after humans. Most trolls stay away from humans,constantly avoid them. Humans don’t know they exist and if they see them they normally freak the fuck out.Trolls refer to humans as ‘fleshbags’. Changelings are a trollish creature that can shape shift into a human form. They’re ‘impure’ in troll eyes and are known as unlikable backstabbing tricksters Gumm-Gumms are evil trolls live only to fight and murder anything they consider as enemies, and are mostly feared by the other Trolls— they will go out of their ways just to eat humans. The Gumm-Gumms were originally just unorganized tribes of barbaric trolls under command of Orlagk until Gunmar killed their original king, Orlagk in 501 CE and took control while banding them together into a fearsome army. Their main goal is to take control of the surface and devour all of mankind.
