         The being that calls himself Tartarus has appeared throughout time since history was recorded. Signs of his actions and resulting changes to culture or the world itself are seen throughout recorded history. He claims to have whispered into the ear of roman spearmen crucifying Christians, given paints and seeded hatred into an Austrian child, walked with angels and imprisoned fallen angels, and told a Roman ruler to play his violin as his empire burned. His origin is unknown, but currently he has awoken again at the beginning of the new millennium.
        Tartarus is what our ancient forefathers would have called an Angel. To be more precise, he is a Fallen Angel. He is an alien that was sent to protect this planet during its nascent years, and instead decided to exploit it for his own gains. He was exiled to the Earth and since, has been a darkened hand guiding humanity as he sees fit. His first origins that is documented, was he was one of the seven beings that got together to form the Sept. The Sept is the group who saw the future, and saw the need for abnorms in the future of our timeline. The Sept was the cause of the DNA changing Prodigy strain that helped implant abnorm DNA onto ours. At the time (the 1910s) He went by the name ‘Dr. Montego’. Tartarus is a genius biologist and was the originator of the original strain that was used by the Sept to change our DNA. Tartarus claims his reasons for helping was honest and true, but ultimately, it was not.
        Tartarus has a group of loyal followers that were all directly created or modified by him, He calls this group Titans. These are his generals and are usually the way he affects the outside world. Tartarus is the silent Owner of Tartarus Inc. a bio tech conglomerate. This world-wide corporation keeps his resources flush.
        Being an alien or angel, Tartarus has two small mutated arms around his waist. These arms are the source of his reality-altering powers. He keeps these additional arms hidden in meal enclosures on his waist. He does not seem to have control of these arms, or their powers. His head always seems to be in deep shadow, and no one has truly seen his entire face. It is not known if the face we see is a mask, or his true face, But most who see even this face, often die shortly afterwards, so no reports make it back.
        Tartarus believes that this world belongs to him and it is his right to affect the history or outcome of any civilization. His meddling often times brings about world-level disaster, and often planned five steps ahead. Tartars’ genius almost knows no bounds. He is a danger to the world and possibly beyond.
