bio_text= Many centuries ago the [[Hell-lords|Hell-Lord]] [[Mephisto]] sent his [[Glossary:G#gargoyle|gargoyle]]-like servant Dargil to  Basilica Alicante, Spain, in search of the [[Glossary:S#soul|soul]] belonging to [[Brass Bishop (Benedicto de vica Severtes)|Benedicto de vica Severtes]]. Severtes had agreed to relinquish his soul to Mephisto at the time of his death, although he decided to renege on the bargain by concealing his soul beneath a mystic armor undetectable to Mephisto.  Dargil eventually found his target only to be beheaded by Severtes who was now known as the Brass Bishop. Desperate to preserve his soul the Brass Bishop confronted Mephisto in Hell, offering to trade Dargil’s head in return for his soul. The diabolical [[Demons|demon]] refused his offer, but was willing to give the Bishop his soul for Beatriz's which now resided in [[Heaven]]. While trying to use the [[Solomon Seal]] to penetrate the gates of Heaven the Brass was confronted and defeated by [[Modred the Mystic]] and the diminutive member of [[Alpha Flight]] known as [[Puck]].
