James Jones was Darius' fourth apprentice. Unlike the other four who were dazzling existences that displayed great power and charisma, James was the opposite. He was the most silent and cryptic of the lot, hardly ever speaking.
Even his fellow apprentices would often forget his presence with them, only noticing him alter to their shock. This was an ability James had been honing ever since he had awoken, his 'Shroud'.
James' had much to do with his past. Ash was a Noble's son from birth, and Reina was the spoiled young miss of the McNickles household in Andrato. Even Anthony was a prodigy of the Sage Monkey Clan.
Only Jonathan and James were average orphans from the same orphanage. Jonathan and James had adapted differently to their circumstances. Jonathan had been bullied and then snapped, deciding to use his lanky nature to oppress others and get what he wanted.
