#a jewel of light / about jessalyn

[hellsblood]

despite jez’s paintings being abstract these actually contain her dreams and visions. she doesn’t know yet but her subconscious had been using these canvases as storage.

[hellsblood]

jez was graduating university in creative writing when her life was turned upside down. for years, she’d been writing about heroes without knowing she herself was to be a part of something bigger.

[hellsblood]

jez is a poet. she also enjoys painting —it helps calm her mind and gives her a sense of control— but doesn’t think of herself as an artist. in fact, she sucks at drawing anything.

[hellsblood]

jez is powerful but it is all raw and untrained power. she also has an internalized phobia of magic because of her religious upbringing (first five years of her life).

for centuries, sage has believed his original child was killed when the village he hid them in was razed by angels in the later stages of the renaissance era. what he doesn’t know is that a witch named nyx made a deal with a demon to protect the child. the child has since then been reincarnated and their soul is currently found within the fatherless baby sage helped delivered in the 21st century. the child is now in their twenties and goes by the name jessalyn d’aubigne. at first, sage thought she was but a mere descendant but then jessalyn turned out to be as powerful as a true nephilim which, by some insane miracle, makes her his true child (and lucifer/satan’s grandchild).

Growing up, Jessalyn never really felt like she belonged. As a baby, she was found in a basket on the steps of a church, with a note signed with a G that said the child has no father. She’s adopted by a very catholic family who affectionately called her their miracle. At the age of 5, she manifested a magic affinity for fire, which scared the hell out of her very religious adoptive parents. Somehow, she ended up being raised by witches who’d heard of the couple planning to exorcise their child. Most witches said she sucked at being a witch. She’d internalized her previous adoptive parents' fear of magic and instead of helping her overcome her traumatic past, they simply decided she was broken and basically made a Cinderella out of her.  Over time, her internalized phobia of magic ate away at her immune system. She was gonna die young (17) but a miracle happened in the form of a redhead man with golden eyes  who fed her his blood. She asked him who he was and he said I guess I'm a guardian angel. She told her witch family about it. They immediately thought a vampire had corrupted her soul but Jessalyn was adamant it wasn’t the case. She’d felt the man meant no harm. They didn’t believe her. And she never saw that man again.

*

She’s 21 and graduating from college in a whole other country than the one she grew up in when her life is turned upside down. She quickly finds herself princess of a realm of shadows she’s barely allowed to leave and now has to drink blood to survive. Her first kill (her first love) haunts her and she relies on her sire Sage (whom she later finds out is her father) for guidance and comfort (platonic comfort, no incest!!). Three months later, Sage vanishes, leaving her to tend to his kingdom as Queen Regent. Sage’s disappearance, as well as the manifestation of the first signs of The Apocalypse, plunges the DARK DIMENSION into chaos. To her own people, Jessalyn is no Queen. They see her as a parvenu,  a surface girl who doesn’t deserve to sit on the throne. They have no idea that the true blood running into her veins belongs actually to their king.

The fragile Armistice between Hell and the Dark Dimension used to rely solely on the latter’s promise to remain neutral in the everlasting conflict between angels and demons. Although, with Sage’s sudden disappearance, HELL worries he might be collaborating with the Host of HEAVEN and thus violating the terms of the original treaty that was signed nearly a decade ago.

The young kingdom quickly finds itself under the occupation of the Infernal Court and Jessalyn finds herself bound to the underworld and unable to leave these grounds to venture to Earth until… she finds a loophole (she carries a vial of soil from her kingdom on her at all time).

This time, Hell demands the Dark Dimension’s allyship in the upcoming Armageddon. Jessalyn has two options: 1) join Hell’s forces willingly or 2) refuse and watch her kingdom be devoured by hellfire. But Jessalyn knows what awaits her people in the infernal realm and she refuses to let Sage’s dream be reduced to ashes.

THE DARK DIMENSION FINALLY JOINED THE APOCALYPSE CHAT!

If Heaven wins this war, there’s no guarantee of what will happen to all supernatural beings who aren’t considered holy creatures of the Lord. But if Hell triumphs… What is gonna happen to all the people who turned their backs on Lucifer/Satan to live a life of freedom under Sage’s protection? And what about the Earth people? Can the Dark Dimension really side with earthlings to save the world that persecutes them?

MORE ABOUT HER

D’Aubigne is the surname of the witch clan that raised her. The surname of the family that adopted her first was Angelet.

Even though Jessalyn doesn’t think of herself as a queen, she remains loyal to Sage and cares about the fate of her people. She will do everything in her power to ensure the safety of her people and make sure Sage’s dream lives on.

She’s very much aware of Sage being her true father and him being Lucifer/Satan’s son, which makes her Lucifer’s granddaughter. She struggles seeing herself as a good person because of her legacy.

Despite being a second generation nephilim, she is as powerful as a first generation nephilim. Sage originally believed her to be the descendant of the biological child he had 414 years ago but she turns out to possess, by some miracle, the exact same soul as the very child he didn’t get to raise.

She’s fighting the idea that evil is born, which is hard to do when people believe you’re a weapon in a war against Heaven.

She’s an advocate for free will and believes one has the power to forge their own destiny.

She doesn’t know about the prophecy about her yet or that she’d be wanted by Heaven and Hell if they knew who she was.

Favorite flower is the dandelion. Because dandelions are free, wild and you can’t buy them. 

She turned out to be one of the best fencers of her team in high school, even though she claims she isn’t much of a fighter. She quickly picked up on it (some ancient angelic fighting reflexes actually kicked in)

She hates fighting and the idea of ever harming someone (again). 

She can’t get drunk, at least not with alcohol from the earth plane. 

Her blood can heal all creatures, including angels and demons, only when given freely. Otherwise it is like poison to both angels and demons that come in contact with it. It is the HEAVENLY FLAME’s own protection system against those who wish to take that power for themselves.
