Cancer John
Cancer John is a changeling living in a freehold contemplating the use of the Children's Contract.
Overview
| “ | Back off, prickholes. I will send a shitstorm your way if you hurt me. You don’t want my friends to come calling. Not the friends I have. | ” |
A loose cannon of the Autumn Court, Cancer John's behavior changes radically depending on what he feels is necessary to slip out of whatever problem he has found himself in.
Of late, he has aligned himself against the Children's Contract and, thus, against the rest of his Court. This was hardly out of a sense of morality, however; Cancer John owes something to his old Keeper, the Sharp-Knife Man. To that end, he steals away with the ritual's victim, one Joey Duncan, into the Hedge in the midst of its performance. Much to his misfortune, he loses Duncan shortly thereafter to the Doll.
The Skitterskulk's fate following this is unknown.
Appearance
A hunched over, sallow-skinned creature, Cancer John is a mess of keloids and carcinomas. His body is jaundiced, with yellow teeth and flies wriggling beneath flaps of his skin. His movements are erratic.
