James Turner is the son of Missouri Moseley.

Background[]

History[]

James was born as the only son of psychic Missouri Moseley. James initially embraced his inherited psychic abilities and learned a few tricks from Missouri. He and his mother became strained after Missouri made a false prediction about Tess Turner's illness insisting that she was going to be okay until his wife died.

Upon realizing that his own daughter had inherited the "gift", James forbid her from acknowledging it. He began viewing his own mother as a fake. Still, he continued to hone his psychic abilities in secret, without the knowledge of either his mother or daughter.

Season 13[]

In Patience, after Missouri's friend and protégé Dede was killed by a Wraith targeting psychics. Missouri calls James, in an attempt to warn him but he hung up on his mother. Missouri then sent Dean and Jody to save Patience from the Wraith.

After his mother is killed, James is sadden but annoyed when Jody Mills and Dean Winchester who were sent by Missouri to ensure their safety come down. He is troubled after he admits that Missouri had always believed her to be psychic as well and that he lied to her about Missouri since Missouri predicted that his wife would be alright when she became terminally ill but was wrong. Patience remembers seeing Missouri for the last time at her mother's funeral and how Missouri had promised to always be there for her.

After Patience is kidnapped by the Wraith, James begs Dean and Jody to help him save her. He then uses the divination skills taught to him by Missouri to locate his daughter. When they locate her, James tries to free her and Patience prove that she has indeed inherited her grandmother's psychic gifts, by telling James to move before the Wraith attacks. After complying, James tries to fight off the monster but is knocked aside. Patience soon help Jody and Dean avoid death, allowing Dean to kill the Wraith and avenge Missouri.

In The Bad Place, James learns of Patience predicting a terrible future for Dean and wants to warn him. James tries to dissuade her and while he admits that he was wrong to lie about Missouri, he reminds Patience of what happened to her and if she goes down the road of hunting that she'll never have the chance to live a normal life again.

Powers and Abilities[]

Despite not being a psychic and trying to renounce any contact with the supernatural, James still holds some magical skills that he learned from his mother long time ago, and actually still practices it in secret. He claimed that he only uses the ability in desperate times.
