Fable – Jack of Blades Rig by Emilio Serrano

Fable – Jack of Blades Rig for Maya is available on Animworks, the leading marketplace for professional animation resources. Whether you are building your first demo reel or expanding a professional toolkit, Fable Jack of Blades Rig for Maya gives you everything needed to produce outstanding animation work.

Emilio Serrano has given Fable’s most powerful and theatrical villain the rig he deserves. The Jack of Blades mGear Maya Rig is a showcase asset that has already starred in a full Unreal Engine 5.1 cinematic short.

Jack of Blades is Fable’s ultimate antagonist—a masked, cloaked figure of ancient evil whose theatrical menace has made him one of gaming’s most memorable villains. Francis Lamoreux’s detailed model brings that unmistakable design into Maya: the sweeping cloak, the stylised mask, the coiled tension of a character built for dramatic entrances.

Every pose feels like a moment.

The rig was used by Emilio in a full cinematic short rendered in Unreal Engine 5.1, with environment art and lighting by Israel Gómez Simón—production-tested through a complete Maya-to-engine pipeline. A full AnimPicker with custom background image, mGear guide, and post-scripts give you professional-grade control navigation for every shot.

Jack of Blades is a natural fit for villain acting, theatrical combat choreography, and dark fantasy portfolio pieces. His design rewards large gestures, dramatic weight shifts, and the unhurried, deliberate movement of a character who knows they’re in complete control of every scene.

What’s included:

• Fable – Jack of Blades mGear Maya rig
• Full AnimPicker with custom background image
• mGear guide and post-scripts
• 3D model by Francis Lamoreux
