History
Diego Avila was a member of the Men of Letters, who ran Capitulum (Chapterhouse) 7 in Porstmouth, Rhode Island. A veteran of World War I, he returned mentally scarred by the experience, only being able to see the worst in humanity. His plan was to bring new gods from another dimension to Earth in order to purge humanity and allow life to start anew. It was possible that he found the Seal of Solomon while fighting in World War I in the Middle East which was needed for the spell to open the portal.
Diego had a tattoo of a variant of the Aquarian Star with the eye of Providence at its center.
