- "I am Consus, the Erudite God."
- ―Consus in the Pythagorean temple.[src]
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
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 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."[2]
Additionally, Consus advised Giovanni to go with Francesco Vecellio to join the Brotherhood in 1503,[2] 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.[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
- "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.[5]
When Giovanni fell unconscious, and awoke soon after, his face had changed into that of a seemingly ancient entity, which claimed itself to be Consus.[5]
