Sylum Clan

Sylum: Hunter

Born in 1954 in Kansas, John has no idea who his real parents are, and has never bothered to find out. He was raised by Michael and Ellen Winchester, who was the older couple that had found him as a baby. He grew up learning everything about cars from his dad’s side. They encouraged him to go to school and do more with his life, but he had enrolled in the Marine Corps and ended up serving in Vietnam. He received many medals and left the services as a corporal.

When he returned to Kansas, he had learned that his parents had died. Michael had a heart attack, and Ellen soon followed. He wasn’t surprised the two loved each other dearly. He inherited the Winchester Auto and set out to expand the business. He met Mary Campbell while taking night classes in business. The two fell in love, and before the Campbells knew it, they were married.

A year later she gave birth to their first born son Dean Winchester. John couldn’t have been more content or happy. He loved his wife and child, his business was growing, and when she told him she was pregnant again, he only smiled.

Tragedy struck the small family when Samuel Winchester was six months old.

Balthazar came into the family home, intent on claiming what was his. He killed Mary, and was determined to take his son and wife. John fought back and gave Sam to his brother, and told them to run. As he ran out of the house himself, he grabbed his boys and never looked back dropping off the grid.

Snippets of John’s location would pop up but only on rare occasions. The only person who had full contact with him and his sons was Robert Singer. He helped John on his Hunt for Vampires. In time John isolated himself from even his boys.

Sam left for Stanford.

Dean left to Hunt on his own.

John came back on the radar when he lost full contact with both of his boys. He had heard rumors of them being captured by Balthazar, and set out to find out what had happened. Only to get himself captured by the very creature he had been Hunting. He learned of his boys Turning from Balthazar, who tortured him physically and mentally, telling him gruesome details of what he had done to Dean.

He was rescued by his boys and the contacts they had made with in the true Vampire Society. Now he just need to learn how to handle the new life given to him.

Being the one thing he had hunted most of his life.
