Like many of the other Bridge Four members, Earless Jaks did not take kindly to [[Kaladin]]’s leadership in the beginning. On stone gathering duty, Earless Jaks approached with [[Dunny]], towing a wooden sled bearing a large stone. As they loaded the boulder into the wagon, Earless Jaks scowled at Kaladin. When Kaladin complimented him, Earless Jaks just glared at him and stalked off.{{book ref\|sa1\|23}} When Kaladin got the squad assigned to stone gathering duty (while secretly gathering [[knobweed]] sap), Earless Jaks approached him with [[Dunny]], towing a wooden sled bearing a large stone.

He even asked what their purpose wouldl be in Kaladin’s plan to win all the men over. Kaladin replied that the men themselves, would be his secret weapon.{{book ref\|sa1\|27}} After Kaladin performed an advanced kata, Earless Jaks was presumably among the bridgemen who gained a newfound respect for Kaladin.{{book ref\|sa1\|27}} He questioned Kaladin's plan to escape the warcamps, but was presumably among the bridgemen who agreed to learn how to fight after realizing that there was no good alternative.{{book ref\|sa1\|27}} After Bridge Four secured [[Parshendi]] carapaces and Leyten fashioned armor from them, Earless Jaks purchased blue and white paint and drew designs on the new armor.{{book ref\|sa1\|64}} ~~Earless~~ Jaks died in the [[~~Batter~~Battle of the Tower]] alongside [[Malop]] and [[Narm]].{{book ref\|sa1\|68}} Kaladin lamented that he couldn’t save the three of them, although he tried his best to focus on the fact that the others had survived.{{book ref\|sa1\|73}}▼ ~~Later, once they secured [[Parshendi]] carapaces, Earless Jaks purchased blue and white paint to draw designs on the new armor for Bridge Four.{{book ref\|sa1\|64}}~~ [[Kaladin]] remembered him, along with [[Malop]], [[Beld]], [[Pedin]], [[Rod (Roshar)\|Rod]], [[Mart]], [[Goshel]], [[Nalma]], [[Dallet]] and the squad, and [[Tien]] ~~whilst~~while trying, and failing, to say the ~~fourth~~[[Immortal Words\|Fourth Ideal]] of the [[Windrunners]].{{book ref\|sa3\|118}} Kaladin remembered failing Jaks and other members of Bridge Four when [[Moash]] confronted him in [[Toralin Roshone]]'s manor.{{book ref\|sa4\|8}}▼ ▲Earless Jaks died in the [[Batter of the Tower]] alongside Malop and Narm.{{book ref\|sa1\|68}} Kaladin lamented that he couldn’t save the three.{{book ref\|sa1\|73}} ==Trivia== ▲[[Kaladin]] remembered him, along with [[Malop]], [[Beld]], [[Pedin]], [[Rod]], [[Mart]], [[Goshel]], [[Nalma]], [[Dallet]] and the squad, and [[Tien]] whilst trying to say the fourth Ideal of the [[Windrunners]].{{book ref\|sa3\|118}} *Some early versions of ''[[The Way of Kings]]'' had a typo that spelled his name as "Earless Jacks". == Notes == <references /><!-- sa1: 23, 27, 43, 55, 64, 68, 73, sa3: 118, sa4: 8 --> {{complete\|[[User:Big Smooth\|Big Smooth]] ([[User talk:Big Smooth\|talk]]) 21:20, 7 January 2021 (UTC)}} ~~{{partial}}~~ {{Stormlight}}
