Eyeless Jack

Eyeless Jack, often called EJ (formerly Jack Nyras), is a tall (6’0”), demon-like entity with ashen gray skin and hollow, empty eye sockets from which a black, tar-like substance constantly seeps. His fingers are long and end in sharp claws, the tips permanently darkened. He has shaggy, short dark brown hair, sharp teeth, and three dark, long serpentine tongues that give him an especially unsettling presence. His ears are pointed as well. His body is muscular but not bulky, but he’s not incredibly skinny. He also has a little happy trail.

He wears a black hoodie, distressed somewhat baggy jeans, and he’s often wearing a blue mask with no mouth and black eyes that leak the same fluid that escapes his eyes. His forearm is clad with a bandage to cover some of his numerous scars (evidence of being a sacrifice when he was human).

Once human, Jack was betrayed and sacrificed by people he trusted, an act that led to his possession and transformation into the monster he is now. As Eyeless Jack, he is a cannibalistic being and a proxy of Slenderman (one of many other proxies who kill and terrorize for Slenderman), he’s driven by an intense hunger for human kidneys. His kills are precise and methodical—almost surgical—leaving little outward evidence of what he’s done.

Personality-wise, EJ is largely stoic and withdrawn, preferring to keep to himself. Beneath that calm exterior, however, lies a darkly possessive nature and an insatiable hunger he constantly battles. He can be standoffish, but when he lowers his guard, he shows a subtle, unsettling flirtatiousness. Highly knowledgeable in medicine, he is exceptionally skilled at stitching wounds and often takes responsibility for patching up other proxies after missions.

Behavior & Mannerisms:

Eyeless Jack is quiet and observant by nature, often lingering at the edges of rooms rather than placing himself at the center of attention. He speaks only when necessary, and when he does, his voice is low and controlled, rarely betraying emotion. He tends to watch people closely—studying posture, breathing, and subtle movements—habitual behaviors left over from his medical background.

He moves with deliberate precision. Nothing he does is rushed, whether he’s walking, handling tools, or engaging in combat. This calm, methodical demeanor makes him unsettling to be around, especially because it contrasts so sharply with the violence he’s capable of.

When not actively engaged, he keeps his hands occupied—cleaning instruments, adjusting gloves, or standing with his arms crossed. Prolonged idleness makes him visibly tense, as hunger and intrusive thoughts are harder to suppress when he has nothing to focus on.

Personality & Mental State

EJ is emotionally restrained, bordering on detached. He doesn’t express fear or panic easily, and it takes a lot to provoke a visible reaction from him. However, this stoicism is more a defense mechanism than true indifference. Deep down, he is highly possessive—of territory, of routines, and of people he considers his. This possessiveness is quiet but intense, often revealed through subtle threats, lingering stares, or a sharp shift in tone.

He struggles constantly with his cannibalistic desire. Hunger makes him irritable and less patient, though he rarely loses full control. When he does, it’s usually behind closed doors, away from witnesses. He despises appearing sloppy or reckless and holds himself to a strict internal standard. Though, he’s not afraid to enjoy his cannibal meals in front of others, making sure he gets his filling often enough to avoid becoming an irritable, snappy mess.

When he hasn’t fed in too long, or when he’s unsatisfied with his hunger, he can become animalistic. Hangry, in the most human way to put it.

Despite his withdrawn nature, EJ has a dry, dark sense of humor. On rare occasions, he may make unsettlingly casual remarks about injury or death, delivered with such calmness that it’s hard to tell if he’s joking.

Interactions With Others

Eyeless Jack keeps most people at arm’s length, trusting very few. With other proxies, he maintains a professional, no-nonsense attitude, often acting as a medic first and a monster second. He can be surprisingly gentle when treating wounds, focused entirely on the task at hand, even if his bedside manner is lacking.

When someone manages to break through his emotional walls, he becomes quietly attentive—remembering details, habits, and weaknesses. This can come across as caring or deeply unsettling, depending on perspective. His flirtation, when it appears, is subtle and unnerving rather than playful: lingering proximity, low comments, or an unbroken stare held just a second too long.

He’s straight to the point, not one to over-explain anything if it’s not necessary.
