I think he explains it to MC when they are in Lamrian, and he comes to MC's bedroom. He started having a clue when MC could see through the "glamours". If you took the diamond-choice of sounding the horn and calling forth the alligator protector, that was another clue for him. Since he learned the bloodwraith was killing powerful leaders - it had killed the vampire leader and a shapeshifter before it killed the werewolf leader - he figured MC must be powerful as well. He figured out MC is not a vampire or a shapeshifter or a werewolf. It was a bit of process-of-elimination.

as for the Fate, it isn't concretely explained. We guess there would have been more to the story (how their paths are intertwined - the Fate, him, and MC) if NB had gotten a book 2 and a book 3. But we guess it is because his parents died and his guardian died. so.. he is "cursed 3 times" because 3 people he loved died. or if you took his diamond scene, he was like an "uncle" to his friend's son, who was killed by a vampire. so it would be 1-parents, 2-guardian, 3-"nephew" who died.
