Jezebel's is an old church renovated into a billiard's hall and bar. The place is run by a man named [[Minor characters|Hank]] and tended to by {{HeroIcon|Infernus}}, who doubles as the bar's bouncer.<ref>{{HeroIcon|Infernus}} in-game [[Infernus/Quotes#Generic Kill Voice Lines|voice line]]: ''"There's a reason they don't need a bouncer when I'm tendin' bar."''</ref>

Shortly before the events of the game take place, Jezebel's is under threat of getting shut down by the Alchemy Bureau due to a large number of infractions, including gambling souls without a license, distributing spirits from Ixia without a permit, and not having the Hex & Alchemy Bureau authorize a ward at the bar's entrance. Infernus and Hank are given 2 weeks to resolve the infractions.<ref>[[The Binding of Oathkeeper]] - [https://youtu.be/nn_C9nQ_Ri0?t=415 Chapter 3B]</ref>

=== Hank ===
[[File:Hank Visual.png|thumb|211x211px|Hank]]
Hank is a portly, middle-aged man who owns Jezebel's.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Infernus}}' in-game [[Infernus/Quotes#Post-Game|voice line]] (post-game ping): ''"Next round's on me! Well... It's on Hank, technically... But you get the idea."''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}'s in-game [[The Doorman/Quotes#Hotel Guest Taunt - Hero Specific|voice line]] (taunt Infernus): ''"You ruined many lives, Infernus. Do you really think that saving Hank’s bar will make up for the harm you caused?"''</ref> He's worried about the bar's infractions and is willing to "make a deal with the devil himself" in order to save his bar.<ref name=":1">{{ConvoCite|hero1=Infernus|hero2=Lady Geist|number=2|hero_quote1=Lady Geist|quote1=How is Hank?|hero_quote2=Infernus|quote2=He's nervous. The bar's not pulling in what it used to, and he's got a bunch of issues with the Alchemy Bureau.|hero_quote3=Lady Geist|quote3=Anything I can do to help?}}</ref><ref name=":2">[[The Binding of Oathkeeper/Transcription#5e - (Unnamed Chapter)|The Binding of Oathkeeper - Chapter 5e]]</ref>
 
The threat of Jezebel's being shut down and what it means for Hank is why Infernus is participating in the ritual.<ref>{{HeroIcon|Infernus}} in-game [[Infernus/Quotes#Pre-Game|voice line]]: ''"This is for you, Hank."''</ref><ref>{{HeroIcon|Infernus}} in-game [[Infernus/Quotes#Select|voice line]]: ''"Sometimes, you gotta go to extremes to help your friends."''</ref> Since Infernus doesn't want Hank to worry about him, he hasn't told Hank about his involvement with the ritual.<ref name=":3">{{ConvoCite|hero1=Infernus|hero2=Celeste|number=3}}</ref>
 
Infernus mentions that Hank "saved his life".<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Infernus|hero2=Victor|number=2|hero_quote1=Victor|quote1=You're putting your life in danger over real estate?|hero_quote2=Infernus|quote2=Hank saved my life. Least I can do is save his business.}}</ref> The implication seems to be that Hank helped Infernus move on from his criminal youth and turn over a new leaf as a bartender.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Infernus|hero2=Graves|number=3|hero_quote1=Infernus|quote1=Look. When I was around your age, I needed help. And someone gave it to me. It changed my life. And I just wanted you to know that I'm willing to pay it forward.}}</ref>
 
Hank is also implied to be friends with {{PageRef|name=Celeste}},<ref name=":3" /> {{HeroIcon|Lady Geist}},<ref name=":2" /> and {{PageRef|name=Mo & Krill}}.<ref name=":4">[[Infernus/Quotes#Conversations|Infernus and Mo & Krill conversation 3]] - {{PageRef|name=Mo & Krill|alt_name=Krill}}: ''"How's Hank doing? I heard the bar is going through a... transitional period."'' - {{PageRef|name=Infernus}}: ''"He's nervous. But Jezebel's' an institution. We won't let it close without a fight."'' - {{PageRef|name=Mo & Krill|alt_name=Krill}}: ''"If there's anything we can do, let us know."''</ref>
 
In one pathway in [[The Binding of Oathkeeper|''The Binding of Oathkeeper'']], Lady Geist pawns off Oathkeeper to Hank on the promise of getting Hank the resources needed to save Jezebel's.<ref name=":2" />
