BIOGRAPHY: Much about the man known as Saint-Germain's past remains unknown. We know that he was one of the twelve immortals gathered together by Moloch, then known as Ptath (see Kabur), after the destruction of Mû who founded Atlantis and its Golden Age. Among his friends at the time were the Atlantean Tatamoua and the men who later became known as Cagliostro (see Sibilla), and Imhotep. After the destruction of Atlantis, Saint-Germain very likely helped some of the survivors, known as Mohenjo Dar, to create the Aggartha in the Valley of Kappa in Tibet (see Kit Kappa), where Tatamoua became the guardian of the living computer knows as the Great Memory. The next known appearance of Saint-Germain was in Rome at the time of Caesar as Senator Germanus. There, he helped Gallix recover the Scepter of his master, Moloch, and defeat Wampus, but unwittingly aided in the creation of the man who would become his arch-enemy, evil sorcerer Maleficus. Soon after, Maleficus joined the Twelve in order to betray them. With the goddess Misr, Maleficus fathered a daughter, Sybill, with whom Saint-Germain eventually fell in love. (Sybill is not to be confused with Sibilla.) During the Crusades, Saint-Germain took part in the creation of the Templar Knights, fought the Black Riders of the Assassins of Alamut, located the Holy Grail and entrusted it to the secret descendents of the Round Table (see Bob Lance), and acquired a new companion, Guillaume, whose body had been tortured by the Black Riders. In modern times, Saint-Germain has been busy thwarting various nefarious schemes by his old enemy Maleficus. More recently, with the help of his Master now known as Cardinal Faria, he helped the Time Brigade set up a plan to prepare Jean Sten to defeat Wampus. NOTE: The Immortal Twelve have at different times hid under the identity of the Priesthood of Mithra, the Templar Knights, the Teutonic Knights, and the Rosicrucians (current cover). Under the leadership of KOBUL SHAN, in the future, they will eventually create the the Time Brigade. Other known members of the Twelve include or have included: BRADCLIFF (Australia, 1795), PROFESSOR SWAN (today, Japanese cyberneticist), BONFIELD (today, Wall Street banker), and TOMAC-ALE (Foreign Minister of Karunda). |
