History: Described by the Bureau as a "paranoid charismatic sociopath," Ephesian was the leader of the extremist Christian sect, the Temple of the Seven Stars. He believed his church was the union of the original seven churches named in the Book of Revelations. Through sources within his church, it was discovered that Ephesian and his group were hoarding arms in hopes of defeating the "devil's army" (the government) as in Revelations.

Once the Bureau began to close in, Ephesian called his followers to prayer and administered drinks spiked with cyanide. He commanded his followers to lay down their lives in order to deny them from the "devil." All members of the Temple of the Seven Stars, including Ephesian, were discovered dead in the temple compound.

Position: Leader of the Temple of the Seven Stars
