Wainwright Jakobs is a supporting character in Borderlands 3 and the heir to the Jakobs Corporation.
Involvement
Wainwright is found on Eden-6, ousted from his ancestral home of Jakobs Manor by Aurelia Hammerlock with the help of the Children of the Vault. It is revealed that Wainwright is in a committed romantic relationship with Sir Hammerlock, whom he refers to as "his partner" and "the love of [his] life".
Through echo logs found on Eden-6, it is revealed that Wainwright has low confidence and is unconvinced that he is capable of taking charge of the Jakobs corporation, due to his perceived lack of ambition and more importantly, his inability to use Jakobs firearms properly due to his poor eyesight. Despite this, he is very proud to uphold the family tradition and is pushed onwards due to support from Hammerlock, and the knowledge that if it was passed to anyone else in his lineage, they would ruin the entire corporation. He aims to keep the Jakobs name built upon reliance, civility and honor, much like his father Montgomery Jakobs.
To work around his poor eyesight, Wainwright uses his trusty shotgun, The Cure, as a main weapon instead of a rifle.
According to Gaige, Wainwright has a love for books and "brown liquid" (whiskey).
