He works in the Silver Rush alongside his half-sister, Gloria, who he refers to as "Glory" and does his part in the politics of their operations. He has Cutting as a surname, as opposed to Van Graff because his mother liked his father so much that she wanted Jean-Baptiste to have his father's last name.
