Hieronymous serves as the temporal vessel for the Mandragora Helix, cloaking his ambition in the guise of scholarly ritual. Once an astrologer to Count Federico’s court, he now commands the Brethren cult as its undisputed leader, translating celestial prophecy into earthly tyranny. Beneath a gold mask and scholarly robes, his true allegiance lies with Mandragora’s promise of dominion rather than any mortal patron. His manner shifts between nervous calculation and furious desperation, masking a cold belief that the Helix’s rise will crown him Earth’s supreme ruler. Even as his connection to Mandragora’s power visibly drains him, he clings to defiance rather than submission.
