“I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both.” - R.

"Smart man!" He replied, a chipper tone to the blonde's candor. He reached into his coat, retrieving a pen and a small travel journal. A page was torn from the book with swiftness, not scratched in a decently legible cursive.

"The bloke operates out South Hampton. Been a loyal little lackey a good five years, takes his payments up front."

Hyde passed the note to the other with a strange friendliness, as if he were recommending an accountant or lawyer. "Tell him the Ripper gives his regards, and ol' Jamie will treat you right. On that, you have my word."

He was skeptical of stuff like this - he usually tended to pick who he trusts very carefully, and this stranger, who admittedly he was getting along with quite well, claims to have a contact for him.

Well... if it turned out to be a trick, he knows just what this man looks like now. Would be a fun exercise, tracking him down to kill him. Best case scenario though, this was someone Matthew could at least do pretty reasonable business with.

"Alright, you've gotten me curious. Can't say I'd mind meeting with them, if nothing else."

"You guess is as good as mine, love. A bit of Mad Science has only ever served me well."

Character Biography

Name: Professor Edward Mulligan Hyde Aliases: Jack the Ripper, James Moriarty, The Patriarch Born: July 7th, 1821 technically

Edward Hyde was not intended to exist.

That has never stopped him, mind you. What a man was SUPPOSED to do was not the sole defining factor in any choice that this man has ever made.

Some of it is the story you know- after all, the novel was an ever-so-popular penny dreadful. Picture Perfect Doctor Henry Jekyll, alchemist and physician attempted to formulate a means to chemically abate his hungers and deepest desires, those parts of himself too shameful to indulge in the eyes of a Victorian gentleman.

But HJ-7 was no mere change in appearance. No, after decades of Jekyll pushing down and suppressing that which he despised most of himself, he had created something dark. Some venomous creature that, with the introduction of the formula, could take form and run free in the world of Man.

It was entirely on accident. Hyde was never supposed to happen. the formula had supposed to been a suppressor of intrusive thoughts and urges. It was supposed to be a medicine. A means of shutting down the parts of onesself that the subject felt unbecoming. Instead, it set those parts of you free, as their own person.

For a time, Jekyll and Hyde had an ammenable agreement. Hyde would sate all those unseemly needs away from Jekyll's eyes, and even help Jekyll's success grow in his antics. Continuing their work while Jekyll would rest. In exchange, the good Doctor would fund his escapades, and protect Hyde from consequences.

But sometime in 1825, something... changed. Jekyll disappeared, and Hyde was in complete control. Not just of the body, but all Jekyll's assets.

What was more, the man had discovered an alchemical formula that, when taken intravenously on an annual basis, could slow the aging process to a crawl.

Wealthy, free, and nearly immortal, the man now roams the world seeking mischief, causing problems, and chasing power.
