Jables, aka JB, is a fictional representation of the actor Jack Black and the main protagonist of the movie Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny. He runs away from his strict Christian family at a young age in order to become a rock star and arrives in Hollywood years later. In Hollywood, he meets Kage and the two form the band Tenacious D. They discover that all the great rock stars from history used the same guitar pick - the Pick of Destiny, fashioned from Satan's tooth and infused with supernatural powers. Jables and Kage then set out to steal the POD from the Rock and Roll History Museum. When they return, they accidentally break the pick in half, and Satan, disguised as a nightclub owner, reattaches the pick to his tooth. The D challenges Satan to a rock-off, which they win. Satan tries to kill Kage, but Jables deflects his lightning with his guitar and breaks off the devil's horn, which he uses to banish him to hell once more. They later convert the severed horn into "the Bong of Destiny".
He was portrayed by Jack Black.
In the films, as well as The Dragon Knight, he is voiced by Jack Black, who also played Dewey Finn in School of Rock, R.L. Stine in the Goosebumps movies, Ignacio/Nacho in Nacho Libre, Lenny in Shark Tale, Professor Sheldon "Shelly" Oberon (Bethany Walker and Fridge Johnson's avatar) in the Jumanji films, and Claptrap in Borderlands. In the video games, Legends of Awesomeness and The Paws of Destiny, he is instead voiced by Mick Wingert.
