== Lore ==
[[File:JakeStore.png|frameless|left|150x385px]]
:Additional Lore can be found in ''Tome VIII - Deliverance'': [[Exile of the Kingdom]].
''Growing up the son of a wealthy CEO was always going to put pressure on Jake Park. When his brother graduated with honours from Yale, the pressure on Jake intensified. Jake just wasn't the academic type, but his father never really understood his refusal to embrace the expensive education he lavished upon him. Eventually, Jake rebelled by dropping out of school entirely. Now, Jake lives off the grid on the edge of the woods. It's been years since he spoke to his father but his mother checks in once in a while. It was she, who eventually called the police. The cops said he got lost in the woods and a search party looked for days, but gave up as bad weather rolled in. Despite passionate pleas from his mother, they never resumed the search and Jake went down in history as another casualty of the woods.''

''Jake's destiny was set even inside his mother's womb. Heir to wealth, noble manners and caretaker of the family reputation and legacy. During torture it's not pain that breaks a man, it's immense pressure. And Jake couldn't handle any more pressure. Instead he sought the opposite of fine dining and maids. He left the grid and ended up with a forest as closest neighbour. A self made outsider, Jake understands nature. He's not there to tame something - rather him becoming feral. Remove the brutal Killers that seek out blood to drain and Jake would feel just at home. No Wi-Fi. No Fortune-500 companies. No father or mother. Years away from modern life has given Jake a new feel for problems. Pain is just an obstacle that hinders you from getting fed. No matter what is hunting you, you need to stay one step ahead. Struggle, blend in, adapt. Just don’t make it easy for others to erase you from the Earth's surface.''{{-}}

== Trivia ==
* '''Jake''' is one of the four original Survivors who was first introduced to ''{{IconLink|Dead by Daylight}}''.
**The other three Survivors are [[Dwight Fairfield]], [[Meg Thomas]] and [[Claudette Morel]].
* Despite it not being mentioned in his official Lore, Alex Lin clarified that '''Jake''' was indeed Korean prior to his tome's release.
** He mentioned this in a comment on Twitch in 2017<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/ouchhPi.png]</ref>.
**'''Jake's''' ''Lunar Fusion'' Outfit (a [[wikipedia:Hanbok|Hanbok]]) is based on his Korean heritage, a theme which is also shared by [[Yun-Jin Lee|Yun-Jin]]’s ''Fire Moon Mourner'' Outfit and The [[Ji-Woon Hak|Trickster]]’s ''Fire Moon Performer'' Outfit.
**Contrary to popular belief, it is heavily implied in his [[Tome VIII - Deliverance#Jake Park: Exile of the Kingdom|tome]] that he moved to the United States from South Korea at a later stage in his life and was not born there.
*'''Jake''' has been through several model changes since ''Dead By Daylight''<nowiki/>'s early development.
**In ''Dead by Daylight'' ALPHA, '''Jake''' had a completely different character model and ethnicity, portraying a portly American skater teen.
**In ''Dead by Daylight'' BETA, '''Jake's''' ethnicity was changed once more to a model which closely resembles his early design and concept art.
**'''Jake's''' old model's likeness was modelled after Alex Lin, Product Manager at BHVR, who also voiced The {{IconLink|Doctor}} and had [[Alex's Toolbox|Alex's Toobox]] named after him.
***Images of ALPHA/BETA '''Jake''' can be found in the Gallery below.

=== Character Meme ===
* Sabo Jake: this meme originated during the times {{IconLink|Hooks}} could be permanently broken with Sabotage, for which '''Jake''' was a favourite pick due to him owning {{IconLink|Saboteur}}.
