Hex Boys

The Hex Boys consist of six members: Matthias Payne, Ayden Ishida, Jayden Ishida, Logan Hough, Blake Daniels, and Tristan Grant. It's the name their school mates initially gave them, as they are infamous for being around when weird things happen.

Infamous for being distant, aloof, and always involved in weird happenings around town, the Boys are constantly keeping watch over the portal and ensuring that no demons expose their world. The Hex Boys are demon hunters for The Mandatum. Their powers currently surpass those of basic hunters and would qualify them for Sicarius status, but none of them wish to be detected. Gossamer Falls is their area to protect, their base is the Church of St. Rita's, and their base leader is Father Bancroft.

Not including Matthias, five of the Hex Boys were childhood friends with Aurora Lahey before she moved to LA. "Around 8 years ago" from the time Aurora moves back to Gossamer Falls and is reunited with them, Ayden, Jayden, Logan, Blake, and Tristan had been playing with their (civilian) friend, Garrett, near the falls when a demon appeared and attacked them. Their powers activated to protect them. Garrett, unfortunately, was ripped to shreds and later deemed to be the victim of a rogue mountain lion, as officially reported by cover-ups working for The Mandatum. Jackson Payne, Matthias' father, arrived the next day to take over the position of Sheriff and ensure the demon attack's secret, and then all the boys and their families disappeared, missing the last month of school. They were educated and trained by The Mandatum and did not return until the end of summer. Matthias and his father became members of the town, Tristan lived with his grandparents, and Blake momentarily moved in with Logan and his mother before his uncle, Reece Daniels, arrived to take care of him and the dude ranch.

As all hunters of The Mandatum are teamed up in groups of seven, the Hex Boys are fascinating in the sense that all five of them were born in the same town, whereas most hunters come from various parts of the world and are grouped with the aid of their guardians, who connect with each other to point out other members of their team. Matthias is the only Hex Boy who did not grow up with the rest of the group, and comes from Australia.
