- "I am Consus, the Erudite God."

Consus was a member of the First Civilization.[1] In the early 1500s, he became a guardian of sorts to Giovanni Borgia, an Assassin born into the notorious Borgia family.
Biography
Giovanni's guardian
In 1498, shortly after his birth, Giovanni Borgia was discovered to be malformed and likely to die within a few days. The Assassin Perotto Calderon was able to heal his presumed son after stealing the Shroud, one of the Pieces of Eden created by the First Civilization.[2]
Throughout his childhood thereafter, Giovanni would have delusions of seeing a nonexistent being, whom he befriended and called Consus. Consus often spoke in Giovanni's head and gave him advice, even once allowing Giovanni to read a letter given to him, though the boy himself did not know how at the time.[3]
Though of questionable origin, Consus seemed to be in favor of the Assassins or simply against the Templars. Giovanni's grandfather would ask Giovanni about Consus and if he could speak with him, but Giovanni would simply answer that Consus was not there, as he "does not play when Nonno is around."[3]
Additionally, Consus advised Giovanni to go with Francesco Vecellio to join the Brotherhood in 1503[3] and also attempted to convince him to give the Apple of Eden to Fiora Cavazza, when she had come to retrieve it for the Assassins.[4]
Though he did not appear to continue these hallucinations later in life, Giovanni did not forget. Upon bringing the Crystal Skull to Bombastus in 1520, he met a madman who, upon seeing him, called out to Consus, causing Giovanni to demand him for an explanation of using the name. He received none.[5]
Erudite God
- "Giovanni drops to the floor, unconscious. I kneel beside him. His eyes suddenly open, but a stranger gazes at me. Giovanni's face alters before my very eyes!"
- ―Maria with Giovanni in the temple.[src]
When Giovanni and Maria Amiel traveled to the Temple of Pythagoras in the later 16th century, the Vault within it reacted to Giovanni as it would to a descendant of the First Civilization, shining with symbols and glyphs.[6]
When Giovanni fell unconscious and awoke soon after, his face had changed into that of a seemingly ancient entity. He spoke in a distant and unfamiliar voice and claimed himself to be Consus, the Erudite God.[6]
