Backstory

Ethan’s life before Jack was quite simple; born in a middle-class Indian family that had been in England for over two centuries, it was rather comfortable and his parents accepted his gender at a young age, allowing him on blockers and then testosterone some years later.

From a young age, he was fascinated by real-world mysteries and secret histories and this would eventually lead him into the world of Urban Exploration, joining a group of like-minded teens and young adults. It was during one of their dive into a ruined victorian house that the group found a strange ritual site, a covered mirror standing in the middle of a magical circle.

When they disturbed the site, they unleashed Jack-of-Smiles a once-powerful demon who had fed upon the death and pain caused by the outbreaks of tuberculosis in the Victorian era before being sealed away by some long dead and forgotten mystic. Intent on devouring the teenagers’ souls to regain his power and escape, Jack, begin afflicting them with sickness, they would have died but Ethan made a deal; He would willingly become Jack’s host if he allowed his friends to live.

Jack couldn’t pass such an opportunity and accepted the deal, unfortunately for him after his slumber he was too weakened to completely take over Ethan, and the two were stuck together. Alerted by the display of magical power the White Warden of Whitechapel came and discovered the situation, although he could heal the teens and remove their memories of the incident, he could not unbind Jack without killing Ethan, but he couldn’t allow Jack to be free.

The White Warden had only one choice; send the young boy to Ravenhold where hopefully he could learn to control Jack.
