Background
When he was alive James didn’t have to many friends. He was a very quiet man that mostly kept to himself. Usually he would only befriend those that could stimulate him intellectually or teach him something new. Even if you weren’t the smartest of people if you showed effort, he would gladly help you. He was always a very proof oriented man, so religion was never one of his strong suites. Always willing to learn and hungry for knowledge, naturally a library is where you’d find him most days, reading to his hearts content. Being in such a closed environment with nothing but books and dust and mold isn’t good for you, but Jack didn’t really care. Reading made him happy and he planned on doing that for the rest of his days. Eventually he landed a job with an archaeologist who was in need of a partner. He impressed the archaeologist at a conference with his knowledge and soon enough a partnership was made. Traveling around the world in search of history and knowledge, what more could he ask for. Eventually this would lead down a dark road. Grave robbing, breaking into sacred and protected sights. Jack had slowly become more and more obsessed with his quest for knowledge. Eventually it would lead him to truly crossing the line. An ancient temple on the remote island of Salifa would be his final test. The island was inhabited by a tribe that had been untouched. Rumor had they had ancient scrolls hidden within the temple that held the secret to eternal knowledge and understanding. Jack refused to leave this up to chance. He hired a band of mercenaries and upon arrival had them open fire upon the tribes’ people. Having any remaining survivors slaughtered they made their way to the temple. Through the temple there were various traps that he would fool the mercenaries into triggering or checking leading to their demise. Finally, alone he reached the scrolls unaware of the final trap. Upon lifting the scrolls, a trap blew what appeared to be dust in his face, but it instead was an ancient pathogen that the tribe had carefully cultivated and hidden. He never made it off the island. By the time he had gotten to the beach he collapsed. The pathogen was virulent and rapidly destroyed the lungs Once in hell he was reborn as pyre. His knowledge and wit was quickly acknowledged by Satan himself and he was put in charge of the great library of hell, where all it’s knowledge was kept. Jack wasn’t that great of a fighter, but Pyre was different. Access to such quantities of ancient knowledge allowed him to acquire tremendous power, though he rarely wields it. He may be slow to anger and hate to fight but when he does decide to step into combat be wary. Out of all the demons in hell he wields some of the greatest fire power and is definitely one you do not want to piss off. His vast knowledge also grants him access to countless types of magic and various ways to counter any foes. He acquired the nickname Eldritch by crushing any that dared tried to take the great library by storm. In unique and odd ways. Even most demon over Lords are no match for him. Therefore, most request access to the library over trying to force their way in or steal anything. Those that have tried are strung in the ceilings from prisons for all to see, but they dare not utter or word for a library is a quite place and they would not want to incur his wrath again. Even though it’s his job to guard the library he can sometimes be seen on the streets of hell. Usually it’s either to find French fries or deeply thinking about something he has been reading.
