Sobriquet: Neon

Appearance: Neon has the boy of a small boy -- Seven-years old. He has uncombed brown hair and a face that seems perpetually laden with fear and surprise.

Behavior: You are very quiet and will only talk to Damien, and even then only in a whisper. Give yourself very big and fearful eyes, and never relax.

History: As part of a normal, upper-middle-class white family, Jimmy was on his way home late at night when he was spied by Damien. The Caitiff insinuated himself into Jimmy's family using his Dominate discipline to make everyone think he was Himmy's older brother. But Damien eventually tired of living with the family and decided to leave. However after he left, one of Sheriff's bully boys attacked the family, murdering all of them in a horrible bloodbath, and as a lst stroke, Embraced poor little Jimmy. Damien learned about the "ritual killings" from the news and found the boy days later, living in a culvert and drinking the blood of squirrels. Ever since, he has protected Jimmy, now named Neon, and sought to hide him from the hated Elders.

Jimmy is severely scarred from his experience and has been permanently traumatized. There is now a part of him which is always out of reach; he has taken what he thinks is the best part of himself, his child, and put it where no one can ever harm it.

His whole world seems to be filled with horror and pain. During the Lupine attack, Neon had the misfortune to run into Son. Son seemed very concerned about the boy, and offered to take him to safety. Neon accepted. Son took the seven year old to his back up haven in the Evenaston Golf Course in Skokie. Once there he told the boy to strip, "so the smell on the clothes won't attract werewolves."

Son left with the clothes. When he returned, he had used his Obfuscate to make himself look like a Lupine. He charged down the stairs to the basement, and grabbed the screaming Neon by the hair. He threw the boy to the floor and shackled him with the chains kept there "for just such a happy event."

Son then proceeded to chew off parts of the boy, spitting them into the dust after sucking out the last drops of vitae. He continued his torment for several nights, forcing the boy to drink from the homeless people he killed in order to prolong the agony as long as possible. right before he finally destroyed the boy, he dropped his Obfuscate. As Neon watched with his one remaining eye, Son tore out the boy's heart and drank the last of his blood.
