Character Files from the ToiBox 23: Jack- Bio

ECB-J

nomaleBiography:  Subject EC:B 3-Jack

Jack is another prodigy who makes an impact in the world of the Eternal Curse. In the case of Jack, knowing too much can hurt you. Jack is raised by a human family who not only knows about the others who walk the earth; they also associate with these beings.

Jack’s story is interesting because he, oddly enough as a human, poses a threat to both the others and the humans; not that he wants to be a threat to either in the beginning. Jack’s first battle is with his government and his right to have a powerful mind. He is taken from his home at a young age and forced to work for the government or be forever labeled a terrorist, but that’s another matter.

Jack’s thirst for knowledge doesn’t end with the knowledge of humanity. He begins to study and master the knowledge of supernatural beings and worlds. It is this knowledge that puts him in the path of Giovanni and Mira. They decide to help him and in return he helps them.

While Jack is much younger than Giovanni and Mira when they first meet, his maturity helps them all to develop a lasting friendship. There are good sons and bad sons, but when Giovanni and Jack become like brothers, lines of good and bad begin to blur. No matter what happens between them, two facts remain constant. They will both do any for Mira and they are both not to be trifled with.

Eternal Curse: Battleground chapter 1.4(wip)

“I saw him go out into the garden. He’s been going out there a lot lately.” With the boys rolling their eyes at me, I continued to explain. “I followed him to see if he wanted to talk and then he just took off. He didn’t even take off his shirt and foot supports. I picked up the remnants of his shredded garment and supports and brought them inside. I recycled them last night before you had a chance to see them. I didn’t want you to worry.”

Sheldon snapped. “Stop trying to protect me Tori; you should have told me last night! At least then I would have been able to track him!”

Character Files from the ToiBox 22: Sheldon- Bio

ECB-S

nomaleBiography:  Subject EC:B 2-Sheldon

Sheldon is the product of ignorance and deceit. His birth was planned by both his father and his mother, but since they never actually met, it makes sense that their plans for the child clashed tremendously leaving everyone involved dissatisfied.

When Sheldon was born his mother thought he was dead or disfigured and so took her own life. He was left to be raised by strangers, but strangers who decided he deserved a better fate than what was planned for him.

Sheldon became a warrior for the righteous at a very young age and, ironically (explained in the book), never knew what it was to have a childhood until he met his new family. When Sheldon first met his adoptive family it was all business; he was to protect Mira on a mission. Years later Sheldon would find himself welcomed into a strange home that existed in both the world of reality and the illusion of a human only existence.

In Sheldon’s new home, for the first time, he would have a father, a mother, a sister, and become acquainted with humans who didn’t fear him.
