History[]
Father Shandor was a priest from Transylvania who was cast out by his order for using magic and ancient relics to combat demonic forces, something his superiors for some reason frowned upon (presumably, he should have just let the forces of the netherworld get on with it while he stuck to organising church jumble sales). He responded to this by hitching up his skirts and setting off to roam the world battling evils such as the demoness Jaramsheela.
