TV BIO:
The story of the life and death of Jesus Christ is well-documented and well-known. According to Grail legend, however, the story is a lie.

What happened was this: on the cross, Jesus was fed a soporific drug to put him in a deathlike coma. He was taken down from the cross and secreted away. His body was tended to, his wounds were cleaned, and after a few days he awoke. The story of the resurrection was put forth as a way to distract people from the real Son of God so that he would be allowed to live in peace. He married a woman named Mary and had several children. He died in actuality when he was 43 years old, run down by an offal cart.

His offspring was still considered part of the divine lineage, and a group immediately sprang up to protect them. This group came to be called The Grail, and their purpose was to make sure that the blood of Christ was neither watered down nor polluted. Unfortunately, this meant a prodigious amount of inbreeding.

Over the next two millennia the Grail grew both in size and in power. By the 20th Century, they were a global superpower, hidden in the shadows. They held the reins to all the nations of the world, and could exert power on the leaders of the world's most powerful governments.
