Gill (AST)

Gill is the leader of the Illuminati, a mysterious organization made up of humanity's elite who have controlled world events from the shadows since the dawn of history, and seeks to fulfill an apocalyptic agenda to ensure its own utopian salvation
==Appearance==
Gill's appearance is characterized by his half red and half blue muscular body and flowing blonde hair. He bears a distinct and intentional resemblance to a Greek God. In keeping with that theme, Gill fights completely unclothed except for a white thong around his hips.
==Personality==
He is presented as a cult leader who would become a benevolent and compassionate monarch over his worthy subjects (akin to a Cult of Personality). Worldly, majestic, impressive, and charismatic in his pursuits, Gill is not without flaws however, being haughty, arrogant, disdainful, manipulative, and even outright draconic and elitist at worst, with his cult using immoral and machiavellian ways such as kidnapping, coercion, DNA manipulation, brainwashing, and extreme force in a similar way to Shadaloo in order to select their chosen people, and they have been behind a majority of the world's events and criminal organizations to attain their ends. Gill is also not above murdering innocent people to complete his ultimate ambition, and claims his faults and flaws are absolved and sublimated by the same supremacist exceptionalism the Secret Society hold themselves to, including a god complex and the excuse that self improvement of the Emperor excuses him from moral responsibility.
Gill also holds an esteemed spiritual pursuit for learning and the arts, and especially the martial arts, sharing the same drive as Ryu to hold the title of the World's Strongest. However, unlike Ryu's sojourning warrior's pilgrimage to just about every far corner of the globe to know the interconnected and intrinsic core of the fighting spirit that goes beyond boundaries face-to-face, Gill seeks merely power and the prestige to gather greater influence for the Secret Society and to honor their dubious fringe beliefs of the Messiah, and his self image of godhood in this sense provides only a misguided motivation for his cause to seek power and spiritual development.
As far as achievements go, Gill often takes a loss, sometimes in order to fulfill a much bigger goal; other times, he does so out of respect for his foe's fighting ability.
==History==
===Background===
Gill is the leader of a mysterious cult-like organization called the Secret Society which has manipulated world events for over 2000 years, and is dedicated to the salvation of mankind, and creation of a new utopia. Unlike the other candidates for the leadership of the Secret Society, who are kidnapped and brainwashed into doing their bidding, Gill and his younger brother Urien were born to parents who were long time members of the cult. Both their parents are said to have been candidates to the presidency of the cult; being holders of Ph.D(s) in their respective fields. It is noted that their mother, an olympic level athlete and a doctorate in Sports Dynamics was especially a favorite to become the President.
The Secret Society had genetically enhanced Gill in his youth, increasing his strength and speed so that he could participate in an intense hand-to-hand combat training program. Gill became the top student out of the hundreds of enhanced warriors involved, surpassing even his own jealous brother, Urien.
According to Secret Society's legend, the soul of the previous Secret Society Emperor would be reincarnated into a new body after death; the organization determined, through the results of their special training program, that the latest incarnation of the Emperor was Gill. Therefore, at the age of 22, Gill was appointed President of the Secret Society. Urien was overlooked due to his emotional instability, and appointed vice president under Gill. Later, Urien challenged Gill for the presidency of the Secret Society and succeeded. Urien then became the president of the Secret Society. However, Gill was not demoted - in fact, he was promoted out of the title of president and became the new Emperor and messiah.
===A Scary Thought===
Gill is introduced being informed about the destruction of Hotel La Ba, and thus the failure of the operation between the Illuminati and a remnant group of Shadowlaw. Gill wasn’t that worried any news that spread would be considered little more then a rumor, and the Doctor’s death meant he didn’t need to order it for harming the Sailor Senshi. As for Rose, Shadow and Shadow Lady he decided to leave them alone as they acquired the Shadowlaw technology they needed and an assassination would bring about unwanted attention.
He was interested in Kasumi Tendo after watching over the footage of her battle against Rose and seeing that her power readings rivaled is own. He ordered that she and her loved ones be added to the class A protected list.
