Mr. Duval - The mysterious head of the Illuminati. In reality, Mr. Duval is the present-day identity of Sir Percival, a former knight of King Arthur's court and now the Fisher King, or guardian of the Holy Grail.

History

Percival/Duval founded the Illuminati at some point in the early 7th century, and continues to direct it even today. He has survived down through the centuries by continued use of the Holy Grail, although, because of the unscrupulous activities of the Illuminati which he, as its leader, must bear partial responsibility for, he has paid a heavy price, the exact nature of which is unknown but apparently involves some sort of physical weakening. He spends much of his time in the Grail castle of Carbonek.

At the time that the Quarrymen were being formed, Duval personally called Xanatos by telephone at Castle Wyvern, although Xanatos showed little interest in answering his call. Presumably his call involved the gargoyles and Xanatos’s sheltering of them. Alongside concerning himself with the gargoyles, Duval will be clashing with his former liege lord King Arthur during the latter’s adventures; he is also a bitter adversary of the Director. Further information on Duval can be found in the entry on Sir Percival.
