Biography
Giovanni's guardian
Throughout his childhood, Giovanni would have delusions of seeing a nonexistent being, whom he befriended and called Consus. This being often spoke into his head and gave him advice, even once allowing Giovanni to read a letter given to him, though the boy himself did not know how to at the time.[2]
Though of questionable origin, Consus seemed to be in favor of the Assassins, or simply against the Templars. Giovanni's grandfather would ask him about this being, 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." Additionally, Consus advised Giovanni to go with Francesco Vecellio to join the Brotherhood in 1503, and also attempted to convince him to give the Apple to Fiora Cavazza, when she had come to retrieve it for the Assassins.[2][3]
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, though he received none.[4]
Erudite God
- "I am Consus, the Erudite God."
- ―Consus speaking in the Pythagorean temple.[src]
When Giovanni and Maria Amiel traveled to the Pythagorean temple, the Vault within it reacted to Giovanni as it would to a descendant of the First Civilization; shining with symbols and glyphs.[5]
After Giovanni fell unconscious, and awoke soon after, his face was changed into that of a seemingly ancient entity, which claimed itself to be Consus.[5]
