background (incomplete)
Jermiah is an impundulu, and his true form is a very large, dark "phoenix-like" bird. When it storms, he is usually the cause. He is very powerful and dangerous in his true form, and he prefers this appearance over being human. While he is a bird, he enjoys causing harm to others by striking homes and setting things on fire with lightning strikes. He can control lightning and he has the ability to conjure it whenever. In addition to his transformation and lightning abilities, he is a vampiric creature. He must have a certain amount of blood to maintain his true form. Traditional Impundulus are "owned" by witches, and it is the witch's responsibility that they are fed properly. If he hasn't fed in weeks, he will lose his ability to transform into a bird and will become much weaker. The longer he waits to feed, the less control he has over his appetite- he has killed entire families before due to hunger.

As a human, he appears as a very attractive man, but his appearance usually caters to his victims' desires. Skin color, facial features and hair color can appear different depending on who he has chosen to feed off of. His ability to change enables him to seduce practically anyone. He hails from South Africa and can speak all 11 official languages of South Africa. He has also picked up Spanish, French, and some German while in America. His preferred languages are, Zulu, Afrikaans, and English.

Jermiah has been passed down from a long line of witches from a Zulu tribe. Unfortunately, he killed the last witch that inherited him due to her inability to feed him enough, thus making him an Ishologu (impundulu without an owner). Without an owner, Jermiah has been traveling around the world in search for sources of food, enjoying his freedom. He tries not to kill his victims when he eats, often only drinking enough to maintain his bird form (he would rather hurt/kill people with chaotic weather c: ). Once he has had his fill, he will move on to another victim. While most impundulus leave behind an illness to those who they decide not to kill, Jermiah simply curses them with bad luck.

Jermiah's relationship with Boski is an unusual one. He first latched onto the twenty-something-year-old at a frat party. Jermiah was simply looking for a meal and was originally targeting Boski's best friend, Harper, but ultimately ended up feeding off of Boski in a closet. It wouldn't be until three weeks later that Jermiah would return for another meal. Jermiah likes "sampling" different people, so he never feeds from a person twice, but after his encounter with Boski, he found the taste of the chubby human to be quite delightful and now only drinks from him. These "feeding frenzies" often leave Boski exhausted for days, so Jermiah tries to only feed off of him once a month, hunting down birds and other animals while he waits for the human to recover. Many pets have started to disappear around the area. Aside from humans, cattle is his favorite meal of choice, though he has to travel far from the city to obtain what he wants.

Jermiah appears as a very tall, dark-haired, Caucasian 'delinquent' in his mid-twenties to Boski. His appearance spawns from Boski's secret obsession with "bad boys", though Jermiah is unaware of how he looks to the human. When Boski describes Jermiah's appearance to him later in their relationship, Jermiah is appalled. Humor ensues.
