</infobox>

James Corvidae is a Bogeyman under the command of Rose Thorburn Junior. Thought to have been around as a curse upon the settlers who came to the New World, this Other has gone by many names with a bird theme, such as James Crow, with John Pica being it's current one.

Description

Described as always taking the same general appearance, slouch, black hair slicked back, hook nose, nice clothes that have seen too much use. When first seen his eyebrows were thick, his teeth a fraction too wide, hook nose, and his long hair was slicked back, tied into a ponytail that didn’t stick out, but draped down over one shoulder. His skin was a dark brown, like a supple leather, but his eyes were pale.

He wore a dress shirt with a tie, a vest, and slacks, and threads stuck out here and there, the cuffs of his shirt and backs of his pant legs abraded, the knees threadbare. His fingers were long, the nails in need of a cut, a little chipped and frayed, as if he had been scraping at a hard surface. His features, cheekbones and the lines of his chin, the shape of his ears, the structure of his neck and shoulders, it all was slightly off, almost as if he’d been drawn by someone who’d never seen a grown man before.

Personality

James is a clever bogeyman that spread rumors about itself being a demon and will utilize it's powers to whatever advantage it can muster. It doesn't fight directly, even citing that such a thing was out of its skill set.

Chronology

Before the Story

Before the story James helped out Rose Thorburn Senior for summoning it after so long.

Toronto Arc

During the contest with Conquest it turned the Sisters of the Torch against Diana Thompson by forging a connection to one of her machines that now houses their fire spirit. While it allowed a Ghoul to bypass it to get to Blake Thorburn, it also aided in sealing away Conquest.

Return to Jacob's Bell Arc

He later accompanies her in Jacob's Bell, recognizing Crone Mara with a wide smile, but ends up banished once Jeremy Meath attacks because he was too much of a safety hazard. He is later summoned once more after Rose has been sent away and the Hillglades House is under siege, manipulating the connections between a bomb and the surrounding environment before laughing at the sheer amount of Others prepared to siege the house. It is also revealed to have made it so that Conquest's mirror had gone missing, willing to wait before using it for some purpose and content to watch it's effects on Rose.

Abilities

Inconvenient Connections: James is able to forge connections between objects and people. It causes discord by taking something precious to someone else and connecting it to another person. Since emotions still linger, it causes conflicts.
