--PRESS SPACE TO GO TO NEXT SLIDE-- BLOOD WARNING!!! Origins and Early Life Jeffrey Chillberg was once an ordinary teenager living in the quiet suburb of Graybrooke. Known for his introverted nature, Jeffrey found solace in sketching, often drawing twisted, surreal faces that seemed to reflect his inner thoughts. His family life was strained; his father, a former soldier battling PTSD, was prone to outbursts, while his mother tried desperately to maintain a sense of normalcy. Jeffrey's younger brother, Kyle, was his only true source of comfort, and the two were inseparable. At school, Jeffrey was relentlessly bullied. His quiet demeanor, paired with his eccentric artwork, made him an easy target. Despite Kyle's pleas for him to seek help, Jeffrey refused, believing he could endure the torment. The Incident One fateful night, after months of abuse, Jeffrey was cornered by a group of older students. The confrontation turned violent, and Jeffrey's face was burned in the scuffle when they poured bleach on him and set his skin ablaze with a lighter. Severely injured, Jeffrey was rushed to Graybrooke Medical Center, where doctors worked desperately to save him. Although he survived, Jeffrey’s face was left heavily scarred, his skin pale and cracked. His eyelids were permanently damaged, leaving him unable to fully close his eyes. During his recovery, Jeffrey’s behavior became increasingly erratic. Nurses reported that he would stare at the ceiling for hours, grinning as if lost in some twisted daydream. He spoke less each day, muttering only to himself or scribbling unsettling drawings on hospital napkins. His family, shaken by the trauma, struggled to reconnect with him. Descent into Madness Following his release from the hospital, Jeffrey’s condition worsened. He isolated himself, his obsession with violence growing. One evening, he stood before a cracked mirror, carving deeper smiles into his face with a razor to "complete" his new look. His mind now fully corrupted, Jeffrey whispered to his reflection, convinced he was meant to "cleanse" the world of those who brought pain and suffering. That same night, Jeffrey murdered his parents in their sleep. He whispered softly to Kyle before vanishing into the night: "Go to sleep..." The Legend Jeffrey Chillberg became an urban legend in Graybrooke — a phantom-like figure seen lurking in alleyways and peering into windows. His victims were often bullies, abusers, or those whom Jeffrey believed had inflicted cruelty upon others. Each crime scene bore his mark: a chilling smile carved into the victim's face and the words "Go to sleep" scrawled nearby in red ink... or sometimes blood. While the authorities believed Jeffrey to be dead, some believe he still roams the shadows. Survivors claim to have heard faint whispers in the dark — a voice murmuring "Go to sleep..." before a twisted grin emerged from the darkness.
Criminal Record Jeffrey Chillberg’s string of murders left a trail of bodies throughout Graybrooke and beyond. Police uncovered over a dozen victims with his signature carved smile and chilling note. Authorities identified him as the primary suspect in the disappearance of several local children, who were believed to have been taken after witnessing his crimes. The FBI classified him as an active serial killer and placed him on their most-wanted list. His unpredictable nature earned him the chilling nickname: "The Dream Phantom/Killer/Midnight Maniac." During active police chases, Jeffrey survived multiple gunshots to his chest, arms, and legs. Officers also reported firing tasers at him on seven different occasions — yet Jeffrey never flinched or showed any signs of pain. His cold, expressionless demeanor led authorities to believe he was possessed or driven by an unnatural force. He was soon classified as a city-wide threat, a rare designation marking him as a danger to the entire Dominion of Arcas. The Redacted Interrogation and The Admin When Jeffrey was eventually captured, he was placed in a secure interrogation room during a classified session involving The Admin. Details of this session remain heavily redacted, but what is known is that Jeffrey became the first individual to physically attack The Admin — leaving a permanent small scar across his face. The assault shocked authorities, as The Admin’s power was believed to be untouchable. Despite this, The Admin showed no intention of manipulating Jeffrey, instead waiting for his inevitable death to harvest his unnatural power for himself. Following the event, Jeffrey escaped into the nearby forest, evading law enforcement once again. Despite multiple search efforts, Jeffrey vanished without a trace. The scars he left behind, both physical and psychological, marked him as a true force of chaos and terror. Aftermath and Role in Beyond the Veil In the years following his disappearance, rumors circulated that Jeffrey had been spotted in neighboring towns, with new victims matching his twisted pattern surfacing sporadically. Legends claimed that Jeffrey had retreated deeper into urban decay — abandoned houses, forgotten subway tunnels, and derelict industrial zones. In Beyond the Veil, Jeffrey Chillberg becomes an infamous figure, acting on his own twisted desires rather than manipulation from The Admin. Jeffrey’s primary obsession lies with Spencer Elrod — the most infamous bully in Emberfall High School District. Jeffrey relentlessly hunts Spencer, attempting to murder him in every isolated area he can, yet never succeeding. This mysterious and dangerous pursuit leads Liam, Ethan, and Grace to investigate the chilling mystery, as local authorities have long since abandoned the case. Jeffrey's violent presence, enhanced by supernatural possession, makes him one of the most dangerous figures in the world of Beyond the Veil. To this day, residents of Graybrooke warn their children to behave and treat others with kindness. For if you don't... you may wake to find a twisted smile staring back at you from the dark.
