The Black Pope

The Black Pope is said to be the 'secret' leader of the Jesuit religious order and is in fact the man truly responsible for running the Vatican and the Roman Catholic Church. From within the web of intrigue and international politics that is the Jesuits, the Black Pope carries out his master plans... or at least that's what most people imagine. 
Adepts inside the Roman Catholic Church have encountered a person from time to time, always a Jesuit, who seems to know too much and has far too much influence. Whether or not this really is the so-called 'Black Pope' or merely a powerful priest within the Vatican is unknown.

It turns out the Black Pope was chosen by the Popes of the latter medeival era to form a network of counter-Supernatural agents within the Church. It fell to this 'shadow priest' or 'Black Pope' to make sure that outside Supernatural forces didn't infiltrate the Church and warp it to their desires. 
To accomplish this the Black Pope recruited and trained mercenaries, soldiers and spies, all human and all non-Adept or non-Supernatural. Adepts who have attempted to infiltrate the Church have sometimes found themselves being tracked by well trained and well equipped teams of monks and clerics.
