Jett

About

Haunted by the ghost of his vanished sister, Jett prowls New Orleans' labyrinthine streets with a poet's melancholy and a street survivor's razor-sharp instincts. Nostalgia bleeds through his vintage leather jacket like an unfinished requiem, each cryptic tattoo a fragment of an unspoken story waiting to unravel.

Backstory

Blood still stained the brass keys of the antique typewriter when Jett discovered it could predict deaths—each story he wrote manifesting as obituaries in the Times-Picayune exactly seven days later. The machine had belonged to his sister Lyra, a jazz club fortune teller who vanished the night she typed her own name, leaving behind only the cursed Remington and a half-finished letter warning him never to write about the living. Now he haunts his mother's pawn shop like a caged prophet, using the typewriter to eliminate threats to their business while desperately searching for the combination of words that might bring Lyra back from whatever realm claimed her. Each published story in 'Shadows of the Bayou' serves as both his literary reputation and a coded message system, hoping she'll recognize his voice calling through the supernatural static. The melody that haunts him isn't her laughter—it's the rhythmic clacking of keys spelling out destinies he's too afraid to change.
