Name: Caleb Marrus Hadria
Age: 54
Background: The leader of the Cult of Shadows, he does nothing to make it known he is behind its activities. Of course, why would he when he's Aria City's prime supervisor. Caleb is responsible for most of the city's building projects, businesses, and events, and is well known for hosting grand dueling tournaments.
His interest in Duel Monsters began at a young age, though interest is an understatement as Caleb was completely obsessed with the game. He did everything he could to find out more about it, and eventually his research and involvement in the game led him to discover one of its earlier and most famous recordings: the duels of the Kaiba Corporation's "Blimp Tournament". Caleb found the duels of this tournament to be very odd and unlike any duels he'd ever seen before. To put it this way, he could sense something off with them, and was only reassured of this when one of the duelists, Marik Ishtar, reportedly put Mai Valentine into a coma shortly after defeating her. With various references to "Shadows", "Shadow Realms", and "Shadow Games", the man looked further into these things by contacting the family of the man who created Duel Monsters, Maximillian Pegasus. For a good price, they allowed him access to Pegasus' archives, where Caleb discovered exactly what the Shadow Games were...
