Backstory:

Alex was a decent kid growing up, but he always had a deep seated fascination with magic and the occult, which was doubly complicated in a religiously strict household. By the time he was finishing college he had read just about every book he could get his hands on the subject not that it made much of a difference as he had zero abilities at all, at least until he took a trip to visit some of his extended family in Mexico.
The trip was uneventful, they lived in a small town a couple of hours south of the border where not much happens but a cartel had some other ideas, wanting the town for themselves as a staging area close to the border they came into town and started to 'evacuate' the villagers. Alex knew he had to do something but he was always a scrawny kid and wasn't much of a fighter he did have one thing. The last thing Alex remembers was drawing the sigil in the church where he and several of the villagers were hiding, everything after that is black until he woke to a man with a strong british accent calling him stupid among several other less than pleasant things.

The man introduced himself as John Constantine and explained that whatever Alex had done had attracted the attention of a evil, the memories started to come back at this point, he had seen the sigils and words needed to call upon aid, but he was sure it was an angel that he was trying to summon, Alex remembers something answering the call though, something that promised him power to save the villagers in exchange for something, a body in the mortal realm, one they could share so that this spirit might achieve its own goals.

Constantine explained further that in his haste Alex had summoned an Angel alright, though it was one that had fallen from grace and required a vessel to operate among the rest of the world and Alex had willingly allowed this spirit to possess him. By the time he had arrived it was all Constantine could do to bind the Fallen Angel inside of Alex but it wasnt perfect and wouldnt last forever. Alex looked at his body and saw the seal branded into his chest and felt a power he had never known before
