Romulus was a Wendigo, the oldest known in existence. Centuries ago, he was infected by the first Wendigo along with many others, though he was the only one who survived through the ages. He had a prominent scar on the right side of his face and a missing eye. For centuries, Romulus tried to control his inner beast in order for his race to rise to power and be treated as a worthy demons instead of wild animals.
Romulus was a member of the Brotherhood, a group of evil beings who seek to take power of the Underworld and reach their individual and mutual goals.
History[]
At some point in time, Romulus joined forces with other evil beings and formed the Brotherhood. Shortly after this moment, he cursed Craig and started to train him as his apprentice. When Craig lost control and killed an innocent and infected Duncan Phillips, Romulus realized that Duncan was a part of the Chosen. He then ordered his apprentice to get Duncan to complete the curse, so the Chosen would be destroyed and they would could add another Wendigo to their pack.
When Craig reported back after failing to complete the curse, Romulus ordered him to kill the other members of the Chosen instead, while he went after Duncan himself. He tracked Duncan to a storage locker where he was kept prisoner by Jake Porter, a Witch Hunter. Romulus explained his motivations and asked Duncan to join him. When Duncan refused, he broke him out of his cage and abducted him.
Romulus left Duncan in the park near innocents so he would kill them and complete the curse. However, the Chosen managed to vanquish Craig, breaking the curse just in time. Romulus returned to the penthouse of the Brotherhood, where Klea appeared to tell him the Brotherhood was disappointed and that he was no longer a member of them. Romulus then told her that they would need to kill him or else he would come after them. However, Klea was confident that the issue would resolve itself.
As Klea disappeared, the Chosen arrived to vanquish Romulus. Romulus accepted his defeat and chose to die worthy as a demon, containing the beast inside while the Chosen cast the spell to vanquish him.
