Rory Regan reluctantly wore a Suit of Souls to battle evil as Ragman.
History
In the early days of Merlin's attack on the forces of magic, Rory retreated to his father's shop, Relics'n'Riches. He hung up the Suit of Souls, and starved it of souls to keep it weak. He eventually stopped selling magical items, in order to keep Merlin's magic hunters away from him. He proved unwillinng to abandon his former allies, however, as he reluctantly sold John Constantine and his allies components for a cloaking spell.
This didn't go unnoticed, as right when more of Rory's allies arrived, in the form of the Justice League Dark, Merlin's hunters did as well. To save the group, Etrigan offered up a sinner's soul to the Suit, and it overcame Rory once again. In a new, monstrous body, Rory distracted the forces of Merlin long enough for the group to escape.
The heroes regrouped with Constantine and Doctor Fate, and they mounted one final battle against Merlin. Ragman assumed the shape of a massive dragon, laying waste to the hunters, until Merlin's Enchantress struck him down. The group was only saved by Fate sacrificing himself, leaving Ragman and the others to prepare for Merlin's return once more.
