On his best friend, Theo's seventeenth birthday. After touching Theo's birthday gift, a book, he, Theo and his sister Jayda, they all travel to another time period. Traveling far into the past, the three wake up on a beach in St. Lucia of 1718, they encounter Blackbeard, one of the most feared pirates in history, who's significance over the 17th century was famous, for his penchant in hunting and killing witches. After an encounter with him and his crew, Jonas is captured, and intuitively discovered his emotions can influence the weather, in order to conjure storms with his mind. Eventually he is tracked down, due to a locator spell cast by Theo.

Once learning how to get back to 2023, he and the other protectors, along with Theo's cousin, Symone Hunter were magically summoned into a temple, formally meeting the Council of Avalon, the magical council that enforces. They then discover their identities as the new Protectors, the guardians of the Codex, with the responsibility of protecting the timeline. They even find out the Theo has inherited his magical powers from his bloodline.

After being sent on as mission by the Council of Avalon to the future to find an object that will amplify the magic of witches. After going far into the future, to the year 2168, the trio meet two witches, Elena and Mateo, who are able to help them, and while leaving Theo discovers that they are his and Jayda's great-great-grandchildren, and by extension, Jonas' great-great niece and nephew.

Once he and the protectors traveled in 45 Century BCE, Jonas encountered and protected Cleopatra's children, Helios and Selene, and protected them as they were in danger from Maximus. Here, he learned that he specialized in Storm Magic, manipulating the desert's forces and showed the young children how to access and control their magic.

On on of their quests, Jonas and the protectors finally use the Codex in order to venture into the Otherworld, the dimension parallel to the First World, where Theo discovers the truth his mother hid from him. He is from the Otherworld, where his entire family is from, and is of royal lineage and is the rightful heir to the throne of Solaria, the strongest realm of the Otherworld.

Jonas and the Protectors were eventually transported to the year 2009, in New York City by the Codex, and meet their four year old selves and discover they were all aware of witches, and were all apparently witches, making Theo wonder how the twins possessed magic before the Codex bonded to them, and made Jonas feel a stronger connection to magic, knowing that he was born a witch.

Overtime, after going back in time to the Salem Witch Trials in 1692, where the Protectors eventually met Evie West, an ancestor of Jayda and Jonas who helped deliver a baby who was said to become a beacon of hope in the future. This is when the protectors discovered the twins witch nature, and that they are from a prominent family of powerful witches from Africa.

## Biography

As someone who wants more of an adventure out of his life, Jonas humbly embraces his new role as a protector of the Codex, albeit while discovering his uncontrollable storm magic, he's afraid of the damage it might cause. What he lacks in control, he makes up for in innate power and quick thinking, as well as his charisma, of flirting with various historical figures. While rebelling against the Council of Avalon, he must race to try and save New York City from exploding after Theo finds a new and dark magic.

	+ **Spellcasting**: Jonas is able to manipulate magic in order to cast spells, since his instruction from the Codex's spells. He has learned to successfully cast a healing spell, (a more typically advanced spell for witches) in order to heal Theo's wound. Jonas tested out a nature spell, in order to see if the spell would work. In an attempt to so Maximus after being provoked by him, he cast an aneurysm spell on him, in an attempt to stop him.
	+ **Telekinesis**: By casting the incantation *Motus*, Jonas was able to launch Mateo back with a telekinetic wave.
