Meet Them

A glimpse into the souls shaping The Black Phoenix's world.

Mutt Davidson (adult)

Played by: Tim White (Harrodsburg, KY)

Owner of The Black Phoenix nightclub and the story’s central voice. Mutt is a man caught between worlds—part human, part supernatural, and entirely shaped by the city he protects. He carries a sharp wit, a guarded heart, and a past he’d rather keep buried. His instincts make him a natural leader, even when he’d prefer to be left alone.

Young Mutt Davidson

A sharp‑witted, restless teenager growing up in a world he doesn’t yet understand. Young Mutt is curious, stubborn, and full of the confidence that comes with believing you’re invincible. His early experiences shape the man he eventually becomes, revealing flashes of the instincts, humor, and heart that define his adult self. The flashbacks featuring Young Mutt offer a glimpse into the friendships, choices, and moments that set his future in motion—without giving away the secrets he’ll spend years learning to carry.

Ed

Phillip Nelson

Played by: (, KY)

A restless spirit tied to a dark chapter in the city’s history. Phillip is polished on the surface—old‑money charm, tailored suits—but beneath that veneer lies a lifetime of secrets he can no longer outrun. His presence forces Mutt to confront the past he’d rather forget.
