Kenneth Wilson
Kenneth Wilson is a demon hunter working under Leon (Fallen).
Biography
Every moment of Kenneth Wilson's life was a struggle for survival. Born in Harlem to a woman who financed her drug habit with prostitution and petty theft, Kenneth was put into state custody when he was less than six weeks old and spent the first eight years of his life bouncing from one institution to another. He learned to be a survivor at a cruelly young age, trusting no one and adopting a certain degree of ruthlessness when it came to getting what he wanted. Kenneth wasn't afraid to lie, cheat or steal - or worse - if that's what he had to do.
At eight, Kenneth's already hard life took a turn for the worse when his mother successfully petitioned to reclaim custody. She presented reams of documentation to the judge that she'd undergone years of incarceration and rehabilitation, and was a changed person. Kenneth's mother brought him home to a housing project in Harlem where he was quickly put to work as a lookout and runner for his mother's boyfriend.
Leon, a young, powerfully built man had his eyes on the local drug trade and a supernatural charisma to match his ambitions. He treated Kenneth little better than a dog, using him to ferry message to rival gangs and to watch for the cops when Leon met with the gang leaders. Twice, the meetings went violently awry - each time Leon escaped injury, but Kenneth once caught a stray bullet in his arm. There was blood everywhere, and he was certain that he was going to die, but Leon wrapped his powerful hands around Kenneth's arm and beneath his grip, Kenneth felt flesh and muscle bunch and writhe before he passed out from the pain. When he awoke, the wound was healed. After that, a bond of sorts existed between the two. Leon still treated Kenneth like dirt, but Kenneth never forgot that Leon had saved his life. When they'd come home from the firefight his mother hadn't even noticed the blood covering his short and pants.
From that point on Kenneth covered Leon's back, looking for a chance to repay him. As time passed, he learned that Leon wasn't interested in the drug trade so much as someone who was running the operation - a demon, he heard Leon say to one of the gang leaders. Whoever the person was, he was Leon's enemy from a long way back, and Leon had a score to settle. Kenneth figured that made Leon an angel, but if so, the Bible had really gotten its facts wrong somewhere along the line. Still, he liked the idea of fighting on the side of the angels. It gave him a sense of self-worth he'd never known before.
Leon was powerful, of that was no doubt, but he didn't know the street. He needed someone who could pass unnoticed, who could ask the right questions and know where to look to find a quarry. He needed a hunter, and Kenneth needed him.
