I've been waiting a bit to bring this gent into the game. I asked Saber ages ago if I could, but then the character suddenly went quiet in my head.
His comic book face was used ages ago by another gamer (no longer here) to play a character, but these two are not related beyond the fact of the people he has hung around with for most of his adult life.
Please pardon the time it takes to build him. He can be a bit of a crazy if I let him, and many of his thoughts get a bit chaotic.
And while he may use the DC/Vertigo character and his bio as a base, he's one of my Avalonians, so the bio is not going to be standard DC (no cancer backstory, Chas, Papa Midnight, no stint in the asylum, etc.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Code name: Hellblazer (because he likes to play with fire)
Name: John Constantine (in this age)
Birth name: Jon Konstentyn (back around the time of King Arthur, perhaps a touch later)
Age: Old as dirt, in his phrasing--about 1,500 years old, but don't hold him to that
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 150 lbs
Eye Color: Blue
Hair Color: Blond
Citizenship: British
Place of Birth: England
Marital Status: Technically single, but you might need to get a straight answer from him at another time...
Sexual orientation: John believes love is love. If he fancies you, he'll say so
Occupations old and new: Mage for hire, knight for hire, adventurer, punk rock musician with the band Mucous Membrane (that part does carry over from DC because it works for this guy) and general pain in the arse. He has never called himself a hero, even if at heart he is one.
The crew he has run with, on and off, for centuries: Kari MacFeorais Summers (and many of her siblings), Enya Sun, Devnet Casey (and others to be named as time goes on)
Parents: Died ages ago, and he doesn't talk about them much.
Siblings: He had at least two, so they might pop up down the road, but that might not play out for a long time
Powers: He is Witchbreed, the old school word for mutant. His powers are all magic-based, and he was born with them. He usually conjures through fire or rune shields like you saw Doctor Strange do in Avengers Infinity War and Endgame
And he is not a huge fan of Black Air, MI-13 or Pete Wisdom

What the Clan MacFeorais think of him:
Kari--considers him a good friend, a bit quirky, but he saved her a long time ago, so he is golden in her book
Malachi--thinks the man is pompous and a bit of a buffoon at times
Roslea--made the mistake of trusting him once when she really should not have, and it has taken her centuries to be able to look him in the eye again (and it was not about an interpersonal relationship)
Ewan--has never really interacted with the man, but he knows the mage's dark magic is a bone of contention at times, especially with Grandmother Siofra
Hayley--rolls her eyes when he makes passes at everyone and everything, thinks he is a player in the fullest sense of the word
