Brief History

Aloysius was born in the 1800's. The son of a wealthy man in the south, his father helped fund the Confederate Army of the United States while Aloysius served as a Major against the Union. After the Confederate defeat and his family nearly bankrupt, he and his colleagues were on a search for a Union spy. While following him, he touched a being known as the Abyss, described as a dormant power of the universe and 'the darkness inside the darkness.' 
 
Over 150 years later, Aloysius is the director of an organization known as the Shadow Council.
