Born in the city of Nottingham in Mercia, England, John was a reclusive boy, never comfortable with his peers and always the odd one out. When his Gift manifested around his 8th birthday his young life took a turn for the worse as the other youngsters started to seek him out for torment. His family despaired until a scholar arrived at their home and offered to take John as an apprentice, offering a bag of silver to secure him. The family could not believe their luck as John had a training position and they not only did not need to pay to secure it for him but were actually paid by his new master. The boy left his home in the care of his new master Flavius Igneous. The Flambau mage took young John as his apprentice and trained him almost exclusively in the art of magical combat, finding to his surprise that young John had an alignment to all elemental spells not just the Ignem spells his master favoured. At gauntlet John took the name Janus and joined his masters Covenant of Catellus Viridium as a full magus. The denouncement of house Diedne proved the perfect opportunity for Janus to test his battle prowess against enemies of the order at least as powerful as himself. He received additional training in Parma from his Parens in exchange for service in the battles and proved a mighty opponent to the Diedne and their allies. However, years of killing and picking over battlefields of the dead left Janus full of doubt of his own self worth and the reality of what the Order had become with the prosecution of the Schism war. He now seeks a place to rest and consolidate, maybe even finding a purpose beyond the skills of death he has become so adept at.
