Biography[]
Mrs. Baylock was one of the apostles of Satan who knew that Damien Thorn was the Antichrist. When Damien's nanny Holly hung herself, Mrs. Baylock attempted to replace her as Damien's nanny as to protect Damien.
She was an Irish nun, known in the Roman Convenance of the Apostates of Satan as B'aalack.
When the biblical signs appeared to announce the coming of the Antichrist, she was working in Spiletto's hospital under the name of Sister Teresa.
While Spiletto chose the family for the adoption, and Brennan killed the biological mother of the Antichrist and the Thorns' new baby, her duty was to follow the impregnation and the birth of the Antichrist by the jackal and to prepare the Antichrist by shaving and cleaning him to make him presentable to the Thorns.

The day after Holly's death, Mrs. Baylock visits Robert and Katherine and successfully gets the job as Damien's new nanny. The day after Mrs. Baylock is hired, when Kathy decides to take Damien to a wedding with her and Robert, Mrs. Baylock (knowing that Damien will fear the church where the wedding is taking place because of his status as the Antichrist) tries to change her mind but Kathy curtly orders her to get Damien ready anyway.
