Deuce Spade/Background

Childhood
Deuce used to be a delinquent in middle school but vowed to clean up his act at Night Raven after he heard his mother secretly cry in a phone call to his grandmother. He most likely didn't pay attention in school, resulting in him taking a lot of time to solve simple math problems such as basic Algebra. Because of his fearsome reputation in his previous school, many barely approached him. As a result, he gets easily nervous talking to women other than his mother because he doesn't know what to say. Deuce's favorite hobby during these years was riding his magic wheel, which is something true until now. According to Cater, he knows how to fix machinery, such as Malleus' toy. Deuce says that he picked up the skills while helping out his single mom at home.

He is an only child and loves his mom very much. The entire reason he’s trying so hard to be an honors student is so that he can become a son his mom can be proud of. He once cried when she called him to tell him she was proud.

The only time his grandma was mentioned was when he told a story of his mom crying to her on the phone, thinking she’d failed as a parent (during Deuce’s delinquent days).
