In ancient time, at the dawn of the known history of mankind, a man was possessed by multiple entities, which led him to cause horrible murders and destruction. The terror did not lasted long as the mortal shell the entities inhabited, while powerful thanks to them, was not invincible and was eventually stoped. However, the entities vowed to not be banished and each liked itself to an item in the surrounding area. Whoever gets hold of any of these items would immediately become an incarnation of the being known as Jack the Ripper.

It is impossible to know exactly how many entities inhabited the body of the ancient man, and thus, no one knows how many items could hold such terrible powers. Through the ages, there have been many occasions where a murderer was accused of being the Ripper, but only the unnamed man of the 19th century has been confirmed to be one of them. And the item containing the entity, his knife, is now lost once more.

Other beings have been said to be one of the Rippers as well. One such example is Jack the Scythe, a being that killed many in the streets of London. However, these creatures, despite they name they are given, are not confirmed to be Rippers.

One such 'Jack' attacked Charles Baudolino and his friends in London's Darkside until it was stopped by the taco-selling ghoul Dante. The revanant appears to have imprinted itself on a specific ward in a ruined alleyway. How the incarnation came reside within protected Templar territory is still under investigation.

The true identity of the revenant remains unknown but is clearly the murderous aspect of one of the many killers that terrorized Whitechapel district in the late 1800s.
