John Blackburn

John Blackburn is a demon.

Overview

John Blackburn's parents owned a small apothecary. After they died in a tragic accident, John inherited the shop. He also developed a drug-dependency problem to deal with the pain and grief of his loss. An overdose landed him in the hospital, where John became host to something else. He returned to work with renewed energy, hope and ideas for a new herbal formula to help people get well. It wasn't the medicine but people's faith in it - and Josh - that did the work.

The medicine from "Tribal Apothecary" brings them health and wellness, and John Blackburn has become a well-known and beloved figure in his community.

Concept

Although he portrays himself as repentant and caring to those who discover hints of his true nature, John (or rather the demon inhabiting his body) is calculating and manipulative. The demon extends its influence by helping others, but it is little more than a "pusher" of good health, bringing patients and clients back in for a regular fix, providing the creature with the faith it needs.
