## History

The history of Matt Wright is completely shrouded in mystery, to the interest and confusion of his fellow investigators. Even 'till now (2024), only a few notes about his past had been unveiled by others or himself.

* He was born Đoàn Trung Sơn and was of Vietnamese origins.
* His human parent was an unnamed human woman, who was raped by Belphegor when she was 16 years old and abandoned him as a newborn.
* He was raised in a pagoda for the entirety of his childhood, which led to him becoming a buddhist.
* When he was in his late teens, he personally witnessed Tôn Thất Thuyết announcing the Cần Vương movement, so it can be assumed he was born sometimes in 1870s.
* His demonic traits began to manifest when he was in his mid-20s, and he only found out about his parentage after killing and interrogating a witch who was sent among the French army to colonize Viet Nam, though, he initially thought his father was an unnamed demon.
* He had acurately predicted the Great Depression.
* He may or may not be the inspiration behind a character in Sherlock Holmes, though the identity of this character remained unknown.

In early 2000s, he became semi-bored with human civilization and went on a long-termed vacation to the Mesopotamian region, eventually discovering and turned an abandoned Babylonian town into his own massive manor, completely equiped with modern "luxuries" such as electric lightings or in-door plumbing.

Several years later, he met and saved Carl Black from a group of Mesopotamian demons, even taking him in and nursed him to full health. However, due to unknown reasons, the two developed bad-blood between each other, and Black even escaping from Wright's manor being chased by the warlock after stealing many of his priceless artifacts, including the Arthurian holy sword Clarent and a fossilized feather of the Archangel Gabriel. Angered and humiliated, Wright cursed that Black would one day be trapped in Hell for his own doings, and be forever chased by his father's minions.

In 2007, after been tired of living in the middle of nowhere, he returned to London and established a private paranormal investigation office, and began his career as a paranormal investigator. Throughout his career, he has worked for many great and important guests, including nobilities and celebrities, as well as some of the world's most dangerous criminals.
