Spring-Heeled Jack

Title passed down over centuries

The First Jack
The original Spring-Heeled Jack was a demon named Azaron in 19th century London. The demon was summoned by a cult to eliminate their enemies(?). Azaron placed a curse on the cultists that continued his legacy for centuries, turning a random member of their bloodlines into the new Spring-Heeled Jack when the previous one is gone.

Leaping
Spring-Heeled Jack can leap well beyond human levels. From a standstill he is known to reach distances up to 15 feet high and 20 feet long.

Fire Breath
Some version of Jack can breathe out flames. These can vary in color across incarnations.

Claws
Most versions of Jack have some type of claw on one or both hands. The current Jack wears a steel glove on his right hand with sharp points on the fingertips.
