Believe me, I know. I've sunk pretty low. But whatever I've done, you deserve. I'm the bad guy, that's fine. It's no fault of mine. And some justice, at last, will be served! Now it's time to step up! Or it's time to back down. And there's only one answer for me. And I'll stand up and fight! Cause I know that I'm right! And I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready- Ready as I'll ever be!

Charon was born on the streets, taken care of by drifters until they deemed they needed to drift in a different direction from a child. They weren't his parents. They didn't have responsibility towards him. No, Charon had no one to take care of him but himself. And that was fine.
He scrounged up what he could, used what others didn't need, and started getting getting minimum wage jobs as soon as people would hire him. He was hired on as simple things. But, with no formal education, he didn't have much of a chance for anything else.
Until he started overhearing dark secrets. Secrets that people wanted other people dead. And, well, they'd pay for it. Charon had two choices: turn these secret holders in and probably get hit himself for being a rat. Or get the job done.
He became a psuedo-hit man. Getting paid to kill others. It got him what he needed. He never liked that he did it, but it was what life handed him. It was fine, for a bit.
But police figured out what he was. And he was the subject of a man hunt across the united states as he fled. He was shot in a confrontation and crawled to an alley to die. He was born there, he would die there.
Death approached this dying man and felt pity for his soul. He could hear Hell calling for this man but.... Charon had been dealt a bad hand. Most people who were dealt a bad hand like this were negotiated away to purgatory- or they were condemed to hell. And Death usually didn't care. But Charon reminded him so much of another.....
Death squirreled Charon a once-in-a-blue-moon deal he couldn't refuse. He'd become a soul collector. One who would be tasked with collecting souls that Death missed and became ghosts. It was true what they said, no one could be everywhere at once. He had to collect the souls of ones who were harmful to mortals. But the ones who were minding their own buisness? Up to him as to what to do with them.
Charon accepted.
Death introduced himself as Derek, a being capable of splitting his soul off into multiple bodies so he could do his job. Derek and Charon became close as Derek taught the new soul collector the ropes. Charon felt Derek understood him, and was the closest thing that Charon had towards being a friend. Even more....
But it all came crashing down one morning. Andrea, a vampiric former guardian of Death when Death was still a new, fragil soul, came to Charon in tears. The higher ups could not find Death or his soul anywhere. And when they looked..... They found the world had created a new Death. A young girl who said her name was Dedra.
Derek was gone, as good as dead. Charon now forces himself to focus on the task he has been given. Pick up the slack from the new Death and gather souls as best he can. He just tells himself that when he's paid back his debt... He'll look for Derek's soul himself. The higher ups had to have missed something. Overlooked a small detail- something. Derek couldn't be gone.
ABOUT THE SOUL IN A JAR:
Watson was gifted to Charon when Derek was still around. This soul seems to be trapped in a magic jar that makes the heavenly powers unable to detect the soul or judge it properly, and therefore was left until it could be judged. The jar cannot be opened, no matter how hard anyone tries. It can't be broken either. It seems invincible. Derek wanted Charon to "take care" of Watson, as he didn't have time to watch over the soul anymore.

Some style test chibis for Hybrid High - feat a new student!
A reminder of who these guys are cause I haven't posted about em in a while:
Percival "Percy" Hudson (first on left, upper row) (human - he/him) is a normal human about to head into high school when his single mother very suddenly remarries Moral Nightengale (not shown city fae/? hybrid - she/they). A principal at a high school that caters to specifically hybrid students. Those born of two different species parents. Percy must go through his awkward teen years in an unfamiliar, and frightening environment for someone who has been only been in all human environments his whole life.
During his time in the school, he eventually becomes familiar with a small group of students. (left to right after Percy) Turnip Daisymount (swamp fae/vampire hybrid - he/they), Dottingale Knives (cartoon/banshee hybrid - any pronouns), Cyraeni Pixose (naga/mermaid hybrid - they/them), upperclassman Bartholomew "Barbie" Harbor (kenku/goblin hybrid - he/him), upperclassman Sebastian Corrashell (bullywug/harpy hybrid - he/him), and upperclassman/student president of the gsa Marlowe Deadnettle (Hailosi/Cecaelia hybrid - he/him).
It's a coming of age story about growth and learning to accept people no matter what :^)
