Mordred Blackthorne

Mordred Blackthorne is the professed name of a vicious, patterning serial killer stalking the streets of Bastion City in 1086AE. The killer targets only children, mainly orphans, brutalizing and defiling their corpses before leaving their bodies on the street. The Bastion Times has taken to calling it "The Ripper" while the locals who have seen him call him the "Spring-heel," noting that despite his immense stature he is able to leap and move between buildings with considerable dexterity. The exact details of what the Ripper is remain a mystery, though by its own proclamation, it is the son of a demonic mother and a Blackthorne father. This implies that it is the offspring of Jaster Blackthorne by his fell bride, the Underqueen Imshael.

-Mordred's nicknames are taken from the real-life Victorian serial killer Jack the Ripper as well as the cryptid Spring Heeled Jack. His peculiar speech is also patterned on the former Ripper's letters. His half-demon monstrous nature is based on the Dark Tower character Mordred Deschain, from whom he takes his first name. Finally he bears a strong physical resemblance to the DC comics character Joker, specifically the nightmarish version depicted in Grant Morrison/Dave McKean's Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on a Serious Earth (<-click for img ref)
