Backstory: James was born in Minnesota, United States. He lived with his mother and his father, both of them where part of the Sacred 28. Jim greatly admired his father, because he (being a magizoologist) had traveled almost all over the world to study animals. Jonathan always told his son stories about the species he had seen, and which he had not yet seen, like the American black bear. The two of them used to be very close. But when James was six years old, his father inexplicably left, according to his mother, "to study American black bears." Jem, of course, was too old to believe such nonsense, and that's why he hates his father since then. After Jon leaved, Amelie moved to London, and a year later she married Robert. Soon they both had Lis. James has always loved her, because for him she has always been her true sister. He is very protective with her, but also very funny. He is always there to make her laugh when she feels down, or to tell her tales, or invent new games.
