Background: Born in the slums of Chicago, Evan’s childhood was a nightmare of abuse and poverty. Orphaned at 10 after his father, a violent alcoholic, killed his mother and then himself, Evan was thrown into a system that treated him no better. At 16, he survived a brutal gang attack, which left him scarred and half-blind. He learned to fight for survival, hardening his heart and losing his faith in humanity. Evan’s near-death experience at 18—an encounter with a murderous cult that nearly sacrificed him—drew him into the world of the occult. Now, he seeks out the supernatural not to save others, but to conquer the darkness that has always loomed over him.

Personal Life: Evan lives in near isolation, working alone in his cluttered, dimly lit apartment filled with occult artifacts. Relationships are fleeting, as he pushes people away with his cold demeanor, convinced that letting anyone in will only bring more pain.
