Biography[]
D'Aronique was the Allfather of The Grail. It was his holy mission to usher in the rise of the Messiah - the last direct blood descendant of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, two-thousand years worth of inbreeding yielded a Messiah that was little more than a mentally challenged man-child called Humperdoo.
D'Aronique brought Humperdoo to Masada in Israel, which was administrated by Herr Helmut Starr.
