Ripper - The Pierced Veil

London, 1888. The streets bleed fog and secrets.

Jack Carter is a solitary mortician, a man of silence and shadows. Unseen. Unnoticed. That is, until one fateful night, when a walk past a brothel drags him into a world beneath the veil of reality - a world of infernal hunger and ancient seduction.

When Jack is attacked by a demon in disguise - a low-ranking succubus - and survives, he awakens in the hands of a clandestine organization known only as The Pierced Veil. They stabilize his infection, but the demonic wound has changed him. Jack can feel it - in his blood, his skin, his soul. Something dark stirs inside him.

Drawn into a secret war against a deadly hierarchy of succubi, Jack is trained and armed with cutting-edge steampunk weaponry, fueled by arcane science and Victorian grit. Each hunt pits him against more powerful and horrific enemies - from whispering illusionists to banshee-throated sirens, bone-crowned necromancers to blood-fueled assassins. Each battle leaves him scarred, but stronger. Hungrier. Something inside him wants the violence.

The succubi are ranked by power, cunning, and corruption. And at the top of their infernal chain sits Mary Jane Kelly, the Blightfire Seraph - a six-winged goddess of destruction, cloaked in violet hellfire.

As Jack ascends through the hierarchy, killing his way up the ladder, the line between hunter and monster begins to blur. Until the final battle, when he unleashes the power festering within him - and briefly becomes what he was sworn to destroy.

But in the end, Jack Carter isn't here to save the world.

He's here to drag hell into the streets - and bury it beneath the cobblestones
