Biography
Early on life
Jonathan was the firstborn child of Valentine and Jocelyn Morgenstern. While however in his female parent's womb, Valentine gave Jocelyn doses of Lilith's claret as part of his experiments. Because of this, Jonathan was born with black eyes and was also eerily quiet as a child, much to the horror and repulsion of his own mother, Jocelyn. No thing how much Jocelyn tried, she couldn't bring herself to run across Jonathan equally annihilation other than a monster; still, she cared for him and kept up the facade of a loving mother since no one else amid their friends and family seemed to be able to meet anything agonizing virtually him. Lilith, on the other paw, saw Jonathan as her own son, so she watched him constantly and aided Valentine for him.
Afterward the Insurgence, Valentine felt and then betrayed past Jocelyn and his parabatai, Luke Graymark, for their office in the opposition against the Circle that he took Jonathan and ran away with him. To accomplish this, Valentine had faked their deaths by burning downward the Fairchild manor with Michael Wayland and his son in their stead, along with Jocelyn's parents, Granville and Adele.[iii] Jonathan had since been raised by Valentine in a small, remote cottage in Idris.
When he was young, he once asked Valentine about his mother. To dissuade him from asking any farther, Valentine told him that his mother left because he was a monster, and that she was never coming back. Valentine furthered his psychological corruption and manipulation by telling him that no one except him will always love a monster like him, leading to Jonathan's further psychological problems, making him the "monster" Valentine told him about.[ii]
Jonathan and so connected to be trained into a soldier fit for Valentine'south plans for the Clave and the Nephilim. He was taught the necessary traits he would crave anytime to fulfill, which he needed to learn without an feel of contact with other people besides his own male parent. He was likewise taught the skills that he would need to help Valentine bring down their adversaries. During this time, Valentine hit Jonathan, lashing him in the back with a demon metal-tipped whip to remind him of the "perils of obedience."
As a result of his cruel upbringing under Valentine, in addition to his demonic blood, Jonathan became a cold, heartless and bloodthirsty psychopath; fifty-fifty faster, stronger and more lethal than his father'southward other experiment, Jace. This, and multiple other interactions where Valentine poisoned his mind with lies, combined with his ain views on his demonic alteration and it's assured domination over him, shaped Jonathan'southward outlook on life and people for the residuum of his life.
While Jonathan was raised by his father secretly and in seclusion, he knew of the other boy, as well called and raised as Jonathan, that Valentine was raising and preparation for the same purposes. Unlike the other male child, he was well enlightened of his father's plans, given nearly full disclosure, and even knew when the other boy finally failed Valentine enough to prompt him to transport the male child away. Despite knowing that Jace had as well been experimented on, in his instance with angel blood, he did not think much of Jace and saw him as his father's imitation son—a competitor for the approval and attention of their shared father.
When Valentine left to spend time with Jace, a lonely and restless Jonathan habitually played tricks on Valentine, rearranging Valentine'southward papers, or hiding his favorite stele, and teaching Hugin and Munin how to tear people'southward clothes and accept their hats off. This irritated Valentine, but he was at least relieved that Jonathan wasn't doing something more destructive.[4]
The Mortal War
In 2007, in lite of Valentine finally revealing to the world of Shadowhunters that he was alive, their plans were set up in motion, as was Jonathan's role in it. Jonathan went to Paris and intercepted Sebastian Verlac, who was on his way to Alicante to represent his Institute. After briefly befriending the boy, Jonathan killed him, dyed his hair, and took over his identity.[5]
Aided by the fact that the Penhallows had been out of touch with their Verlac cousin for then long, "Sebastian" was easily able to trick the family into taking him in during his stay in Alicante. Before long afterward, the Lightwoods arrived to too stay with the Penhallows. As Sebastian, he was easily able to get close to both his sister, Clary, and the Lightwoods, with the exception of Jace, who was resentful towards the new male child. He befriended and flirted with Clary, offering to assist her search for the cure for Jocelyn by taking her to Ragnor Fell and the Fairchild manor, and at one point even kissed her.
To finally movement with their plan, Sebastian finally climbed the demon towers of Alicante and used his demon-laced Shadowhunter claret to deactivate the wards, thus allowing Valentine'southward demon hordes to infiltrate and terrorize the city. Upon accomplishing this, Sebastian dropped his guise and joined the demons in their killing. He returned to the Penhallows domicile and attempted to kill Isabelle Lightwood, despite showing a fondness for her, and succeeded in brutally murdering her younger blood brother, Max.
Just as the Lightwoods' traitorous tutor Hodge Starkweather was about to tell Jace, Clary, and Alec where the Mortal Mirror really was, Sebastian killed him. Tired of his disguise, he finally revealed himself to them as a spy for Valentine. The 3 of them, afterward joined past their vampire friend Simon Lewis, engaged him in battle; Sebastian bested them, enough that even Jace was surprised, just retreated before the battle could get worse.
He was once again tracked down by Jace soon subsequently. He and Jace had a brutal fight while the rest of Idris fought confronting Valentine'due south demon hordes. Isabelle arrived at the last moment and cut off Jonathan'due south hand with her whip, giving Jace the opportunity to fatally stab him in the dorsum with a dagger, breaking the demon male child'south spine and simultaneously penetrating his heart. His body fell into the river.[iii]
Lilith'south ritual
Having witnessed Jace's resurrection by the angel Raziel, Lilith, knowing that it could cause an imbalance between life and death, saw an opportunity to bring her "surrogate son" back to life. She immediately recovered Sebastian'south corpse and prepare to work.
By manipulating and tricking Jace, Lilith was able to perform a twinning ritual that leap Jace and Sebastian in a demonic form of the parabatai bond, with Sebastian every bit the ascendant of the pair, even in death. She later staged a resurrection ritual for Sebastian's revival, with Clary nowadays as leverage against both Jace and the Daylighter Simon, whose power she needed directly for Sebastian's render. While Lilith was unable to finish the ritual earlier she was defeated by Simon's Mark of Cain, an unwilling Jace, due to his new connection with Sebastian, was forced to complete his ritual. Afterwards the ritual was completed and Sebastian was brought dorsum to life, he left New York with Jace, who was at present nether the influence of the twinning ritual and did not have to be forced to work with Sebastian, with the demonic bond exploiting Jace's darker impulses, leaving him under Sebastian's indirect control.[vi]
Infernal Cup
For weeks, several teams of Shadowhunters were sent past the Clave to search for Sebastian and Jace, believing that Jace was a prisoner of Sebastian. After two weeks of a futile search, the Clave decided to reduce the amount of resources used to track downward Jace and Sebastian, and instead refocused on restoring the wards that were destroyed during the Mortal War.
During this time, he and Jace had been staying at Valentine's dimensional apartment, moving between worlds and countries at ease while Sebastian accomplished tasks equally office of his plan. Eventually, the duo returned to New York, particularly to the Institute to pick up some books on summoning. They both then went to where Clary was staying to convince her to join them. During the showtime night, they were defenseless by Jocelyn, and Sebastian ended up fatally injuring her fiancé Luke. While they had to flee then, Clary later agreed to go with them, but simply because she intended to spy on Sebastian.
During Clary's stay with them, Sebastian hoped that Clary was truly on their side merely still had his reservations. Nonetheless, Sebastian tried to get closer to her, telling her lies about their plan, making her believe that he wanted to save the world, in an attempt to earn her trust. Eventually, Sebastian began to flirt with Clary, much to her disgust. Also, Clary presently constitute out his true intentions. When he learned that she was spying on him, he tried to rape her, making information technology clear that he wanted to be with Clary as they were the terminal of the Morgensterns. Sebastian likewise revealed that he knew Clary had been communicating with her friends through faerie rings and that, in fact, he had been using the ring, without her knowledge, to communicate with the Seelie Queen. Yet, Clary was able to contact her friends once again to tell them of Sebastian's plans at the 7th Sacred Site at the Burren in Ireland.
Somewhen, Sebastian was able to gather up enough allies and supplies and finally had the Infernal Cup created. At the Burren, he summoned Lilith and created the Endarkened Shadowhunters with the Infernal Loving cup, intending to brand Clary one besides. But, before he could Turn every one of his followers, the Clave's forces arrived at the Burren and stopped him. During the fight, his bond and subsequent concur over Jace was severed by the heavenly fire of Glorious. Sebastian's new army was depleted, salve for a few who made it out with him, and they were forced to retreat.
Sebastian'southward concluding move was to transport a gear up of severed affections wings to the New York Conclave with the bulletin "Erchomai", Greek for "I am coming" scrawled in affections's blood on the floor.[7]
Dark War
Some weeks after, Sebastian began a chain of attacks on Institutes around the globe, during which he managed to Turn hundreds of Shadowhunters into Endarkened Ones. His sixth attack was on the Los Angeles Found, where he Turned almost of the residents, including the Institute head Andrew Blackthorn and tutor Katerina, as well every bit kidnapped the one-half-fey, half-Shadowhunter Marker Blackthorn. Among the anarchy, he was stabbed in the heart by Emma Carstairs, merely due to his new powers, bestowed upon him by his "mother", Lilith, he was able to go out unscathed.
Prior to this, Sebastian had forged a cloak-and-dagger brotherhood with the faeries and the Seelie Queen, with whom he was having an affair, and thus had their support during the attacks. Aside from this, the fey representative on the Council, Meliorn, spied on the Clave for him.
After a failed assault on the London Constitute, due to the guidance of a ghost, Sebastian murdered all of the werewolves at the Praetor Lupus headquarters and burned down the building afterward. Before leaving, he stabbed Hashemite kingdom of jordan Kyle in forepart of his girlfriend, Maia Roberts, as a message to the rest of the Downworlders that if they allied themselves with the Nephilim, they would see the same fate as the lycanthropes of the Praetor.
Sebastian's attacks on the Institutes caused the Clave to call all Shadowhunters to retreat to Alicante. Before long after they all arrived, Sebastian attacked the Adamant Citadel as a ploy to not only drive out the Shadowhunters to distract them from his truthful goal, but also to encounter what kind of forces the Clave could send out with advanced warning. It was likewise an alibi to see Clary and Jace. His plan ultimately succeeded, and he would have won against the Clave'due south warriors if not for Jace'southward heavenly burn, which forced him to withdraw at the last moment.
After on, he paid Clary a visit at Amatis' firm in Idris, where he over again fabricated some sexual advances toward her every bit he suggested that he was willing to broker a truce with her, on the condition that she swore her loyalty to him on the Angel Raziel. His attempted assail on her was stopped once again by Jace, whom Sebastian secretly feared considering of the heavenly fire in his veins.
After these events, he gathered up his forces in Edom with the aid of the Seelie Court and prepared his attack on Alicante. They also succeeded in abducting the Downworlder representatives Magnus Bane, Raphael Santiago, and Luke Garroway in gild to further strain the relationships betwixt Downworld and the Nephilim. Also abducted from the dinner was his own female parent, Jocelyn, whom he used as another bartering scrap with Clary as well equally a way to act out his pent-up aggression from what he saw as his mother abandoning him as a baby.
While Clary, Jace, Alec, Simon, and Isabelle managed to rail Sebastian downwards to Edom, later on having swindled the Seelie Queen to permit them to use the pathway to Hell from the Faerie, Sebastian sent some of his Endarkened forces, alongside the Queen's Faerie warriors, to assail Alicante while he waited for his sis to go far.
When Clary and her friends entered his fortress, he was fooled by Clary's program when she pretended to agree to rule at his side. She took reward of the fact that he wanted to kiss her in front of the room of witnesses to get close plenty to him to stab him with her sword, Heosphoros, which, unbeknownst to Sebastian, had been imbued with Jace's heavenly burn down.
Death
Afterward being stabbed past Clary with the heavenly-burn-infused Heosphoros, the demon claret was burned out of his body, and with it the persona of "Sebastian", leaving only the lilliputian bit of Jonathan that remained uncorrupted by Lilith's blood. Unfortunately, there was not plenty "skilful" in him to continue him alive for long. However, with the demon blood'southward influence gone from his body, his optics turned their natural greenish color and he insisted that his sister call him by his true proper name, Jonathan, equally "Sebastian" no longer existed as anything more than than a horrific memory. For those last brief moments, Clary and Jocelyn were given a glimpse of who he would have been if Valentine had never experimented on him with demon blood—a kind and caring person with remorse for his actions. As someone who, for the first fourth dimension since he was born, finally experienced life without the weight of demonic blood within him, he expressed his thwarting over never having been able to truly live and instead causing devastation and heartache.
Despite this, Jonathan knew he could not help them get out of Edom, since he had already sealed all of the portals with no possible way to exit the realm, withal he did what he could and ordered the Endarkened to stand up down, and advised Jace on how to destroy the residue of the Endarkened so that they could non kill Clary, Jace, and their friends upon his expiry, afterwards which there would no longer exist anything to restrain them. With sorrow and regret, he informed a distraught Endarkened Amatis and her Endarkened comrades that he was sorry for creating them and that he never should have. Upon his instructions, Jace destroyed the Infernal Loving cup and, with it, both the Endarkened in Edom and in Alicante, killing them physically and freeing their spirits from the abuse of the Cup. Jonathan ultimately died in his mother'due south arms and his torso was brought dorsum to Alicante by Asmodeus aslope Jocelyn and a comforting Luke.
His body was then burned by the Nephilim, partially out of respect to his living family unit members, but generally to make sure that he would be unable to return to life a second time. His ashes and Morgenstern ring were put in a silver box, much like or exactly the one Jocelyn used to keep mementos of him, which Clary took and tearfully scattered across Lake Lyn's waters.[8]
Unbeknownst to many, the Queen gave nativity to a kid born from their union.[9] Around five years subsequently his decease, the Screw Labyrinth told the Clave of a weapon,[9] one "left past Sebastian" with the Seelie Court,[10] that the Unseelie King gained access to. The weapon was their son, whom the Queen named Ash, whom the King hoped to one day become capable of nullifying Shadowhunter powers and eventually destroy them all.[9]
Personality and traits
As a outcome of the demon blood experiments and his cruel upbringing under Valentine, Sebastian grew to become a common cold, heartless, and bloodthirsty psychopath.
He was a master of manipulation and lies, much like his father. He was trained to get an effective spy, even charismatic and charming when the situation warranted it, just equally he did when he was in the guise of Sebastian Verlac. He was able to continue up the facade of the calm, naive, helpful, funny, and by and large practiced boy—traits which he had picked upward the day he met and killed him—very assuredly that no 1 became suspicious until it was also tardily. Despite this, Sebastian was still simply cruel, vindictive, and big-headed underneath the act, showing absolutely no sense of sympathy towards whatever type of being—excluding his sister, Clary, and fifty-fifty Valentine, in spite of the brutality of his upbringing.
Like Valentine, he was also devoted to a cause and towards a goal, motivated by little more than his selfish desires. In his case, information technology was non even the world and the hopes of ruling it—his main bulldoze had become the want to rule the globe only with his sister and "brother", and to not be left utterly alone equally a pariah. Clary noted that, beneath the endless void of evil, was an extremely lonely person who desired company and dearest, but had no idea that these things must be earned and not forced upon the person.
All this, withal, was mainly due to the influence of demon blood on him, aggravated by Valentine's upbringing. Even Sebastian himself had debated the possibility of him ending up differently if he had been raised by Jocelyn instead of Valentine.
Nonetheless, after the heavenly fire burned away the evil in him, "Jonathan" expressed intense feelings of remorse over his horrific deeds as Sebastian. With his remaining forcefulness, he did all he could to make amends by apologizing for all the harm he'd done, and by saving them from expiry at the easily of the Endarkened. Despite the influence of Lilith'southward blood over his thinking and deeds as Sebastian, Jonathan still felt personally responsible for all the devastation, both in deaths and the emotional heartache, caused past his actions. He expressed guilt for all the suffering his sister and especially his mother were forced through, finally acknowledging Jocelyn as his mother and asking for forgiveness for his deeds. Despite his assured decease, he was all the same infinitely relieved to exist free of the nightmare he'd had to suffer under the taint of the demon claret, his final words exclaiming how he'd never felt so lite.
Physical clarification
Sebastian took afterwards his father in appearance, looking very much like a young Valentine. He was tall and muscular and had a slightly slender frame. He had platinum blond hair, which gave his pale skin some color, and very dark, black eyes. He had a pale, elegant, restless face up with high cheekbones. Sebastian also inherited Jocelyn's slender, graceful hands, and her long eyelashes. His bare back was striped with ragged scars, due to being whipped with demon metal whips while growing upwardly under Valentine'due south intendance.
While posing as Sebastian Verlac, he dyed his hair black to more closely resemble him, which, according to Clary, did non suit him as much as his existent hair color.
When he was stabbed with Heosphoros and the heavenly burn down burned through him, the demon blood cleaned out of his system, his appearance and mindset changed to who he could have been had it not been for Valentine's experiments: his features became softer, his "evil smirk" no longer on his face, and his optics inverse from black to green—the same as Jocelyn'due south.

- Demonic blood empowerment: The fact that Sebastian also had demonic blood, in improver to his own angel blood, straight extracted from Lilith as a result of Valentine's experiments, contributed to his superiority over normal Shadowhunters. However, this non merely fabricated him physically stronger but Sebastian also became most purely demonic in nature and tainted his mind and soul with demonic influence.
- Use of heavenly weapons: As a Nephilim, Sebastian could too handle heavenly weapons with effect, since this would normally not work for other species. In particular, these are weapons made of adamas and forged by Fe Sisters, such as seraph blades.

Relationships
Allies
The Seelie Queen had always shown an interest in Sebastian and had fabricated it very clear. At ane point, she had her knight Meliorn tell Sebastian that she volition stand up with him in his boxing confronting the Nephilim, truly believing that his side would win. Shortly later teaming up, they became intimate, though neither were serious beyond their alliance and sexual relations. The Seelie Queen also believed them to be "lovers" but they both carried a knife behind the other's dorsum prepare for betrayal. Moreover, Sebastian even planned on betraying the Seelie Queen and her Folk and destroying them after he had grown powerful plenty equally correctly pointed out by Jocelyn when she was in his captive. Information technology is unknown if Sebastian knew that she was carrying his child.
| " | You're not my mother. Come. Watch this. Permit me show you lot what my real mother has given me the ability to exercise. | " |
| –Sebastian antagonizing Jocelyn, City of Heavenly Fire | ||
Lilith was the source of the demon blood running through Sebastian'due south veins. Thus, in some twisted way, Lilith considered Sebastian her ain child, and herself as his truthful mother; she kept an middle on him every bit he grew up. When Sebastian was bested by Jace in battle during the Mortal War, she retrieved his body and later went through extreme measures to resurrect. After his resurrection, Sebastian began to openly have this and share her views, later spitefully telling Jocelyn of the incredible power his "real female parent" was capable of giving him.
Family
| " | Considering we are alike! You are mine. You have ever been mine. | " |
| –Sebastian to Clary, City of Heavenly Burn down | ||
Jonathan had been obsessed with the thought of his sister Clary ever since he institute out well-nigh her. When Valentine told him about Clary sinking his ship, he had dreamed (although he did non dream frequently) about her wreaking destruction as he would have, and in that dream he was proud of her. He believed that his sister might non be very different from himself. While she hated him, Sebastian loved and cared for her—at to the lowest degree in the way he knew how. Not only that, but Sebastian'southward sense of family was as well warped, as he wanted to be with Clary, truly believing that they belonged together, not simply every bit his sister but likewise as a lover. While the pair shortly seemed to bond during their time together, Clary's view of him eventually reverted back, if not worsened, when his true intentions were revealed.
Ultimately, it was Clary that killed him past playing on his want to exist with her. When his body and mind was apple-pie of its demon blood before he died, Sebastian tried to atone for his sins and apologized for his mistreatment of her.
| " | You should have loved me. I'grand your son. You should love me at present, no matter what I'm like, whether I'one thousand like her or not— | " |
| –Sebastian to Jocelyn, Metropolis of Heavenly Burn | ||
Sebastian did not think much of his own mother, although he did resent her for not beingness with them during his harsh upbringing under Valentine. He often saw her every bit the adult female who despised him and left him for information technology. Though he makes it well known that he dislikes his mother, he still pondered well-nigh what his life would have been similar had she been with them and, like Valentine, secretly held out some promise that she would somewhen rejoin them or that Jocelyn would still love him. He was even slightly sentimental about it as he kept the silver box, with his initials that held Jocelyn'southward keepsakes of him as a infant, in his room.
While Sebastian burned due to heavenly fire, the dying Jonathan apologized to his mother for all the damage and pain he had caused every bit Sebastian, even referring to her as his mother in a sincere and caring manner.
| " | It's ironic, isn't it, Clarissa? We were Valentine's blood children, and he hated us. You lot considering you took our female parent from him. And me considering I was exactly what he created me to exist. | " |
| –Sebastian to Clary, Metropolis of Heavenly Fire | ||
Valentine had always meant for his son, Jonathan, to exist his own, personal human weapon. He was raised cruelly, trained rigorously to improve on his superior abilities attributed to him by the experiments performed on him by Valentine fifty-fifty while still in his mother's womb. Valentine often whipped Jonathan with demon metal, to remind him of the "perils of obedience". Because of the presence of demon blood in his system, Valentine saw no need to show Sebastian mercy, thus raising him with more ferocity than Jace and with less constraint. Also because of his claret and Sebastian's own lack of pity, Valentine saw Sebastian as superior to Jace, particularly when it comes to combat, every bit Sebastian is plainly more ruthless while Jace had a always tended to care too much. Every bit Valentine accustomed Sebastian equally his primary soldier and weapon, he was kept almost completely in the loop of his plans.
Despite his brutal upbringing, Sebastian nonetheless seemed to show a certain affection and business organisation for his father (if but considering Valentine was the only person Sebastian always had).
| " | I am Valentine'due south son. Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern. Y'all never had any right to that name. You're a ghost. And a pretender. | " |
| –Sebastian to Jace, Urban center of Glass | ||
Sebastian had ever known that his father was raising some other boy: Jace. He saw Jace equally Valentine'due south "changeling", weaker in comparison to him. He used to call up Jace was useless and not worthy of the Morgenstern proper name. In addition, he showed a certain amount of animosity towards Jace and a tinge of jealousy over Valentine's preference for Jace. Nonetheless, he adult a certain amount of emotional and familial zipper towards Jace, considering him his brother in a mode. His terminal plans, which included him and Clary ruling over a realm together, also partly included Jace, whom he expected to submit to him willingly and fully.
