I've never been convinced that JB is Fae, half, quarter, or otherwise. But I've been thinking about the 'altogether different' aspect. In Dark Highlander, it is said that the 13 Druids called upon an ancient power that was neither Human nor Fae. So in this Universe, there are 'powers' beyond those of Fae or mortal that can be brought to bear. I'm not sure how the future time travel thing ties in, because if Jericho could travel into the future, then the story is over, isn't it? It may 'seem' that JB can shift spatially, in place, the way the Fae can. However I'm not certain we have all the data on that. He might have a certain magic. I'm also not certain why JB can't seem to touch The Spear. He can touch other Oops, just not that one. Is it because of its relation to Christ? (even though it pre-dates Christ). I forgot about that lapse in attention while they were meeting Malluce. In reply to:

I can't explain why I'm not convinced that JB is not Fae, just a gut feeling. I think it has to do with his all-too-Human attachment to material treasures & collectibles. I'm sure I'll be proven wrong in time. But I think the idea that he is altogether different is better. And I'm holding out for the idea that he is a Druid.
Also I'm not sure that we have all the data on whether JB can/can't detect Oops on his own. I'm not sure anybody would have known about the box on Malluce's desk or the specific Spear among the collection in the little room. Would a Druid have been able to immediately find the artifact? We don't know.
Let me put it this way, I'm not convinced that the fact that he didn't sense them is a reason to believe he IS Fae.
Hope you don't mind me being talkative about these matters and kicking proposals around. (1) I'm sort of obnoxious (trust me), and (2) this is fun! I'm usually wrong, and I'm comfortable with that.
