This page introduces my BodyBrothers. They were actually the first two SoulBond-type connections I formed.
NOTE: I AM NOT CLAIMING TO HAVE A PSYCHIC/TELEPATHIC CONNECTION TO EITHER OF THESE PEOPLE AS THEY EXIST IN MY PHYSICAL REALITY. THANK YOU.
Joe
Joseph Frank Bruce, Sr., a.k.a. "Violent J" of Insane Clown Posse. Joe came to me during NaNoWriMo05 while I was writing a novel based on what I gleaned of his life from ICP songs and biographies. I say he's a Shaman, he's uncomfortable claiming that title, as his best friend is part Native. He frames all his spiritual experiences with Christianity, because it's what he knows and is most comfortable with. However, if asked, he'll tell you he follows the Dark Carnival, and sometimes accepts that he might be a prophet for that system. He suffers from extreme self-loathing, panic attacks, and unhealthy multiplicity, but this is mostly controlled through talk therapy and (self-)medication.

James
James Lowery, a.k.a. "Anybody Killa" or "ABK" of Psychopathic records (ICP's label). Part Native (Lumbee), I call him a Warrior with a Poet's soul. He came to me not long after Joe did, but has never been around much at all; when he's not recording or touring (Warrior, his fight to put food on the table), he writes (Poet). His spirituality blends Christianity, Native beliefs, and the Dark Carnival.
