Josh Ray Stephens :

Joshua Ray Stephens was born in the dark misty mountains of north Georgia in the heart of the deep deep South. He was raised by a German Shepherd named Honey and a black cat named Boots. One day while dodging Luke, a venomous old snake, he fell into the pond. It was there that he met the wise old Catfish Clemens. Clemens informed him that it was time for the human with a cat and dog for parents to set out into the world. That night a name spoke itself to Joshua Ray in a dream. The very next day he set out for a small town in Italy just north of the old city of Venice. After working in Italy for a while, at a place called Fabrica, he met another Catfish, Peter, who led him into the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Detroit. Joshua Ray studied under Peter the Sage for two years at a place known as Cranbrook. He now resides in the Bloody Hook, underneath the Spotted R, with two kittens named Mars and Gooch and a baby bird named Mary. He spends his time in an old warehouse concocting sacred and magick icons.
