Powers/Drawbacks:In his form of man, Jason Blood has no super powers. He is in the physical conditioning of any young adult who partakes in daily exercise. He is weak to anything a mortal man would be weak to.

THE DEMON has a number of notable arcane weaknesses.
The first is his demon heritage leaves him greatly at risk to summoning magic. A powerful enough sorcerer can bind Etrigan to his side. Other Theological ornaments can cause harm to him, such as a crucifix, holy water, and sacred ground. Other physical weaknesses include a vulnerability to Magic Cast Cold abilities, as well as certain sound frequencies can cripple him.
Skills: The Demon is a skilled warrior when it comes to physical combat, but lacks other skills outside of fighting and spell-casting. Jason Blood however has an intimate knowledge and understanding the Arcane, The Occult, Witchcraft, Sorcery. Though he himself is incapable of any sort of battle magic, he is an expert when it comes to Archaic History and Magical Perception.
Bio: Born into a rich family of noble heritage, Jason Blood was handed everything on a silver platter. Despite being such a child of privilege, Jason Blood had a natural aptitude when it came to his schoolwork. He had a near genius-level intellect, and keen instincts when it came to psychology, physiology, and world history. He stood out in his schoolwork from a young age. However, once Jason hit puberty, he became a problematic student - not often for getting into fights of his own, but for goading other precocious students into them. It seemed Jason Blood had a knack for mind-games. His playful attitude when it came to his peers made him a social outcast, widely distrusted by the rest of the student body, and he leapt from one Preparatory School to another, all while his absentee rich parents foot the bill.
To Jason, the real world wasn't as interesting as his peers made it out to be. You see, Jason's family had earned their fortune through a variety of black magic acts, wicked sorcery, and dabbling in the occult. Whereas some children would spend their weekends watching movies with their parents, or going to the park, Jason's parents took him to Secret Societies of robed figures, summoning circles, and their wicked masked masquerades. To Jason this was just what life was. It was likely his exposure to the dark underbelly of the Magic World that started his downward trend towards nihilism. Had he known as a child what his parents were really up to, he'd have turned on them far sooner.
On Jason's 18th birthday, he was brought before yet another one of his parents gaudy masked parties, everyone drinking their red wine. His father rubbing shoulders with prominent demonologists, his mother being too friendly with...well everyone.
But when his father and his friends lead him downstairs to the wine cellar, Jason Blood grew worrisome. The cellar had been cleared, the only thing in the room was a large white hieroglyph he didn't recognize. His father had him study early on all the marks and symbolism when it came to the dark arts. Jason wasn't able to fight back. He was forced into the speaking circle, and there, his father and his friends communed with the devil.
At first, Jason was terrified. He knew what kind of hellish spells could be cast and the kind of damage that could be inflicted upon him. While his parents and their dark companions attempted to sacrifice young Jason Blood to THE DEMON something peculiar happened. Etrigan, the yellow skinned demon with the sharp horns and claws that can rip a man in twain, felt empathy for the boy. instead of Feasting upon him, he made a pact with the boy. Jason would become ETRIGAN's vessel on the mortal plane. Using a sorcerer's curse, the boy and demon were bonded as two souls.
The Demon cast a subservient charm on The Blood's and their hooded friends, and Jason Blood was free.
Now, 5 Months later, Jason Blood and The Demon - as one - are partaking in Etrigan's Crusade. A crusade to rid the world of evil, and protect both this dimension and the next. With the two having only a begrudging respect for each other, Jason has been recruited by DOCTOR FATE to join the West Coast Titans. There he would be able to learn what it is to be truly a hero, and how to respect his newfound powers.
