Srejj Goonth
H.H. Holmes (a.k.a. Srejj Goonth)
Holmes believed that he was destined to have the Nether. He killed small animals in his youth and tried different ceremonies in an attempt to draw its power, but soon lost interest. In his adult years, he felt the calling of the Nether once more and he was persuaded to cultivate the element again. He galvanized the summoning of Nether by having a place, or "castle", specially dedicated to his victims. He furthered this by crudely reciting ancient witchcraft in an attempt to bridge the gap between the physical and metaphysical for direct access to the Nether. He used this power to manipulate people without fail, making them vanish without question and running a business under the radar of constant suspicion.
But his greed caused him to stumble. He then understood how the others before him perished. Worried, he murdered Benjamin Pietzel and his children as sacrifices to try and stave off his inevitable fate. But his efforts were in vain. He went mad in a spree of arson and theft before being apprehended and imprisoned. In his final moments, he ultimately accepted that he had no real power over the Nether.
As Srejj Goonth, he has the appearance of a black bear from the chest down. From the neck up, he has gray, humanoid flesh. His mustache is perpetually soaked with blood and arachnid eyes line the circumference of his head. Along with his preternatural strength, he also has the ability to devour anything except for Aether, even emotions. As the de-facto leader of Sinister's Nether Beasts, he is in his own league.
