Backstory

Baron Gehenna is the adopted title of Simon Azarov, a nobleman and warlock from an ancient secret society of occultists which claims to trace its lineage back to the days of ancient Egypt. While he appears to be a middle-aged man, he is at least a hundred years old, using magic to keep his youth. His villainous career has mostly been driven by his arrogance and unwillingness to drop a grudge rather than active malevolence; one such rivalry began when a hero in civilian garb made him spill his drink in a bar. That said, he's made a couple grabs at cosmic or temporal power over the years and committed his share of theft, blackmail and assorted other villainy. While a self-styled warlock, his soul is more or less his own and he keeps the various demonic and eldritch forces he deals with at arm's length. He wields the Scepter of Galish, a powerful magic artifact that is normally disguised as a mundane cane, and has a familiar, a black cat named Scoff.
