Special Rite(s): Jetrel recieves an additional point of Essense when administrating electroshock therapy on a patient who doesn't need it.

Jetrel was a former servitor of Nightmares, a dedicated believer in Abatha's goals. Alongside the Demon of Madness, he studied the ideas of waking nightmares and indulged in the terror of its "cures." Specifically, the fear of induced seizures which had been introduced to mankind in the 16th century. Jetrel saw this as a delicious form of punishment which would torment not only the receiver, but also their family and, in rare instances, also provide nightmare fuel for even the administrators. When Abatha rose to a status of Princess, Jetrel was one of the first to follow her.

The Punisher worked alongside various psychological institutions, promoting the use of seizure induction. In 1937, when electroshock therapy was first applied to a human, he was there. The use of shock therapy quickly rose to preference in the 1940's and the torture it applied to all not only won the favor of Abatha, but Lucifer himself. Jetrel was given the Word of Electroshock Therapy. Not for the instances of good it did, but for all the misapplications of it.

For thirty years, Jetrel's Word only grew stronger. In the 1970's, the use of electroshock therapy underwent new scrutiny by the psychiatric community and its use--especially its miss-use--has been on the decline since.

Jetrel is not in disfavor with his Princess. Yet. While not as strong in more scientifically advanced regions, he still brings his own brand of "cure" to backwater counties and countries alike. Jetrel typically works as a traveling psychologist, introducing new types of cures to remote areas, promoting the idea of electrically-induce seizures as a form of therapy for everything from bad behavior to actual insanity. So long as the people keep cranking up the voltage, they'll eventually be cured--even if the cure is found in frying their brain.

Still, he knows he can't keep this up forever. Jetrel is working on ways of bring ECT back into vogue. One of his more recent ideas is to present electroshock therapy as a cure for depression. A few volts here, a few volts there and the weak believe they can be all better. Of course, Jetrel is also making sure that the recipient stays depressed and, therefore, keeps needing the treatment.
