Zax Engelringer
Demon
No Contract
A demon who has come to earth in search of a mortal willing to enter a Faustian Contract. He has spent a great deal of his time on Earth in Arabia. For hundreds of years in fact, he has entered Faustian Contracts with arabs and crusaders especially. Rumors among the various supernaturals is that he was contracted to Saladin during the crusades. Because of his time spent there, he has taken quite a fancy to their style. He wears black, loose fitting clothes, and a turban wrapped around his head. Part of the turban covers his right eye which is the telltale demon red. The left eye is a vibrant blue color, though no one knows why this is. Only Zax knows, and if asked, he will simply smile and say, "What a funny thing to ask," and he will leave the room or just walk away, ending the conversation. His name is slightly confusing as to tis origin. Zax is a simply a strange spelling of "Zach" which could come from the Hebrew name Zachary. That might have a connection with his Arabic/Israeli origins, but the way he spells it with the emphasis on the 'x' sound might indicate he is from a different location with no ties to the Arabic/Israeli name. The surname he has taken, Engleringer, is a combination of the Germanic word for angel 'Engel' which might be a name taken in irony, since he is not an angel but a demon after all. As for the 'ringer' ending, it is undetermined.

Kazimierz Stryker
Human
Thief, Supernatural Hunter, and Owner of the Dark Wonders Emporium
Contracted with Bran Stoker
Dark chocolate hair, eyes the color of allspice, skin as smooth as newly spun silk, and a face flawless of any markings or blemishes; Kazimierz Lief Stryker is not nearly as ordinary as he looks. He is completely aware of the presence of any and all supernatural beings that inhabit the surface and shadowed workings of the world he is a part of. In the heart of London, a poor boy commoner and one with the crowds of lowly lives that dwell in the festering sewers and streets of the proud city's inhospitality, he is well acquainted with the crime and conspiracy that taint the hearts of hundreds. His own tainted heart has long tasted the black and bitter satisfaction of anarchy, murder, and sin. He is not pure by any stretch of imagination and though many can claim innocence at young ages, he cannot. He is a wandering soul, without a purpose and searching for a calling. He has partaken of many human indulgences, particularly those dealing with the bedding of women and the acquiring of wealth. He ceased in both activities entirely not too long after his sixteenth birthday. Nearing seventeen, his life had taken an unfortunate turn of events, events he will not name. In accordance with these events, he summoned a demon and bound the creature to his will. His demon of choice; the sinister and psychotic Bran Stoker. Despite Bran's sworn duty to protect Kazimierz until the night he shall consume the boy's soul, he finds a fancy to torturing the young man, both physically and mentally. Kazimierz has nowhere near gotten used to the tortures, but he is no longer as surprised that they occur. It is a part of the demon's nature that he simply had to learn to deal with. Bran also proves maddeningly unhelpful, and doesn't care about Kazimierz' well being. Kazimierz is something of a go-to guy for anything regarding dark arts and supernatural matters. He owns a small shop called the Dark Wonders Emporium. It seems to sell interesting things enough, but in the back, it is also a black market for whatever otherworldly things he stumbles upon or steals. Some of the things he has gathered from the varied creatures he has killed; werewolf pelts, vampire fangs, and other items. Some speculate (at least those who know about Kazimierz and his shop) and spread rumor that he has a Shinigami's blade as well, but even Kazimierz says that claim is ridiculous. Having returned to his killing, thieving ways, it appears that the young man, now seventeen, hasn't changed all that much from the way he was before he summoned Bran, but he has. He really has. It's what's on the inside that has transformed so drastically, not the outside facade he parades in. As far as anyone knows, Bran is more or less Kazimierz' servant or bodyguard, perhaps partner in crime. Not even those aware of the Supernatural know that the two of them have entered a Faustian Contract. Kazimierz has his symbol on the back of his neck, right where the first vertebrae can be felt. He keeps it hidden by wearing collared shirts or jackets. Occasionally a choker, collar, or scarf.
