Billy Dee Richards

Background: Billy Dee Richards grew up in a time when mercy was impossible to find for a poor black kid growing up in the ghetto. His father lost his job when the factories closed down, and his mother was always sickly. Young Billy took to books, but knew that he had to appear tough to keep from being beaten by his peers. He made himself look tough, but anyone who knew him knew that the giant was softer than any man they knew.

With such a caring nature, his parents were surprised that their son drifted to becoming a pastor. A few years study in the seminary, and Pastor Billy Dee Richards was sent back to his old home in Philly. If it was possible, things seemed to have gotten worse. The gangs had taken over entire neighborhoods, drugs running everything. Billy Dee did his best to preach his gospel, but the youth he so desperately wanted to reach out to kept slipping through his grasp. He was at the end of his rope when one of the older couples in the church asked him to help them save their possessed grandchild. At first, Billy Dee thought they were merely unable to explain or accept a mental illness, and decided to at least humor them to ease their pain. Three buckets of holy water and a singed hairline later, and Billy Dee found out what really there.

It wasn’t until Shauna joined the cell that Pastor Richards noticed that maybe the fae could be an answer to his city’s troubles. Reading through Christian apocrypha, he believes that there had to have been angels who chose no side in the war that tore Heaven apart. If the fae were such angels, they could act as the messengers of God people would need to show them their wicked ways, and force the gangs in his area to repent. This does not fit perfectly with the path Isaiah Bellamy, the leading Long Night member in Philadelphia, who wants to just reach the changelings on the streets. To Billy Dee, the changelings are only a symptom of the larger disease, and he will do what he thinks is needed to return the angels that took them to their former glory.
