Jan van Bruyn

Jan van Bruyn is a side character that only appears in Saving Chloe (2018), the fourth game set in the Elsaverse. He is a former pro boxer, and currently owns a gym in Sangrive, where Xara lives. He has no powers known.

Character Overview
Several years ago, Jan van Bruyn was a well-respected professional boxer who had a high-profile title fight scheduled to take place at a hotel in Sangrive. However, shortly before the fight, rumors that he was taking bribes started to circulate; even though he denied those rumors, the fight was canceled and his reputation was ruined. The only one who actually benefited from that incident was the hotel owner, Morland Reyes, who had a significant insurance policy on the fight.

Now retired from boxing, Jan still owns a small gym in the city, where some characters like Paul or Michelle Won attend Xara's martial arts and self-defense lessons. Knowing she is trying to stop Morland, Jan offered a small office in the gym for Xara to stay in for free. This causes Xara to feel frustrated, as she doesn't know the real reason why he refuses to accept her money and thinks he just feels sorry for her due to her being a blind and lonely woman. In Jan's gym, Xara meets regularly with the girls with powers she has managed to recruit to teach them self-defense; Jan calls the group "Xara's Angels", although Xara doesn't get the obvious reference.

One night, Jan hears a noise in the gym and goes to see what's happening, only to find Charles Reyes carrying an unconscious Xara out of her room. He's then attacked by Crow, who uses one of her visual tricks to inject him with the leftovers of the sedative used to neutralize Xara. When he wakes up and learns what happened, Jan immediately offers to go to Morland's mansion to free Xara. In the end, Xara's Angels need him to deal with Morland's muscleman, Atlas, who seems to be even stronger than Jan.

In Elsa's Nightmares (2019-2020), Chloe Reyes says she has hired both Jan and Atlas to protect the abused women she intends to help using her now-gone father's assets.
