He was known as the "Reaper of the Bailey", an epithet he acquired due to the fact that every defendant he prosecuted, convicted or acquitted, would end up dead. This "curse" eventually led to a five-year leave of absence. More backstory: While Barok van Zieks was was still a student in training at the Prosecutor's Office, his brother, the Chief of Prosecutions Klint van Zieks, introduced him to the three Japanese visiting students: Seishiro Jigoku, a promising judge, Yujin Mikotoba, a forensic doctor studying under John Wilson, and Genshin Asogi, a police investigator in training at Scotland Yard. Six years after meeting them, the infamous Professor Killings began: a series of four murders carried out by a large hunting hound on aristocrats. After the final supposed killing of Klint van Zieks, Barok was attacked by thugs alongside Genshin Asogi, who had often worked alongside Klint and whom Barok had grown to trust. Having been attacked several times before due to his brother's position as a noble, high-ranking prosecutor, Barok presumed himself to be the intended target. Genshin defended him, though was wounded. Shortly after this event, Genshin was arrested for the murder of Klint van Zieks, and later (due to a deal made with Mael Stronghart while imprisoned) confessed to being the Professor. While Barok would later admit to having had suspicions that his brother could have been the Professor due to Klint's distaste towards the abuse of power typical of nobles and his irregular behaviour during the killings, he had dismissed these after the death of the third of the Professor's victims: the Lord Chief Justice at the time, of whom was Klint's former mentor and benefactor. With Genshin having confessed, and with Barok's own long-standing respect and admiration for the man, Barok felt betrayed and enraged. Seeking to avenge his brother, he pleaded Mael Stronghart, the prosecutor assigned to the case, and was eventually allowed to prosecute Genshin with Stronghart as his legal aid. This was the first of Barok's trials. Due to the tenuous relationship between Britain and Japan at the time, the Professor was tried in closed court, with the face of Genshin Asogi concealed by a metal mask. With Genshin having agreed to take the fall for Klint, a guilty verdict was easily secured. While Genshin put up no fight, both of his fellow students attested to his innocence. One, Seishiro Jigoku, became so impassioned in his testimony he destroyed the witness stand, later being tried in Barok's second ever case for remarks he made against the British Empire during it. Ultimately, Jigoku was not convicted of any crime, returning to Japan with Mikotoba a month after Genshin Asogi's execution, as the study tour had been terminated in the wake of the Professor case. At some point, Barok would come to wear his late brother's prosecutor's badge. Barok lost his next case as a prosecutor after the defendant, Chalan Musgrave, threatened the jury into giving him a not guilty verdict. Three days later, he died after being crushed by a concrete block under a construction site. Since then, Barok was labelled as the Reaper of the Bailey. Following that trial, all of the acquitted defendants in his trials came to die under mysterious circumstances. In response, the people of London spread the rumor that the Grim Reaper, the force said to be causing the deaths, was actually the ghost of Klint van Zieks shadowing Barok and bringing down justice where his younger brother, by dint of the law, could not. Barok himself fell into this belief, finding comfort in the notion. Because of this "curse", Barok was frequently attacked by underlings of victims of the Reaper. Eventually, he stopped taking cases, unable to bear the burden and pressure that came with being labelled as the Reaper.
