Background:
Born the only son of a Methodist preacher, Daniel was raised from an early age that violence was wrong and to turn the other cheek. This belief became so ingrained into him that when his lottery number for the draft came up in 1968 he headed towards Canada to avoid the war.
He never made it to Canada... instead he was taken by Glyrox, one of the lords of the Goblin Hordes. In Arcadia, he was put through the training that Glyrox's soldiers get, and it twisted his mind and body. He began to call himself Jinxed, which he later shortened to just Jinx. While serving in the armies of Glyrox he became part of the warband called the Bloody Blades, and became close to those he served with.
During the latter part of his fourth year in Arcadia, the Bloody Blades made a break for the Hedge while out on a mission. Back in the mundane world, Jinx was shocked to learn that eight years had passed. With the help of some of his compatriots he hunted down his Fetch, which was living his life in Canada. He then reclaimed his life and made his way back to the United States. Moving to the St. Louis area, he has been living there since.
