Biography
Neron is a mysterious, malevolent and extremely powerful demon who presumably ruled the dimension Hell. At some point, he approaches John Constantine due to him making a deal with him in exchange for his soul. However, Constantine's lover Desmond made a different deal with him: his own soul for Constantine's freedom, in which he accepted. Constantine found out and sent Neron to Hell, although he couldn't do it without sending Desmond as well due to being bonded to the demon.

Years later, Neron went against his deal with Desmond and started hunting Constantine. He also became the leading partner of the Time Bureau's financier and Nate Heywood's father, Hank. The two of them began secretly working on "Project Hades" that involved the Fugitives that escaped from an extra-temporal dimension prison following the death of the demond, Mallus. During this time, Neron was playing golf with Hank, while frustratingly learning of a setback in his plans. He also reveals that he is possessing Desmond.

Trivia
