Biography[]

Derek Jones was plagued with bad luck. At 20 years old, he couldn't wait to get away from his domineering mother, who openly called him "a moron," so he moved out and found that life in the real world was just as scary as the movies. Derek's first job was working for a literal ax murderer, then he took a job working at The Club, where he discovered his boss and coworkers were vampires. Fleeing that scene, he got another bartending job across the street... and discovered his new boss was an alien from outer space.

All of these odd occurrences led him to meet his idol, Peter Vincent, and become a member of The Anti-Monster Society. Unfortunately, he kept getting left behind when the crew went out to battle monsters, so he decided to go off on a solo mission... which ended with him being transformed into a zombie.
