A Ghost Story
(Ghost...the band)
Once upon a time
there were twin brothers born of a royal bloodline. But because of a threat to orderly succession, one was set to execution, the other groomed to be leader. However… secretly both survived.
The one brother would go on to rule as Papa Emeritus II and the other named Copia (aka copy, twin) would spend his childhood years in a secluded French monastery, tirelessly working his way up through the ranks of the clergy to become Cardinal.
After seven long years and his persistence at being employee of the month (also his insistence on singing 80′s metal and hoisting a boom box during clergy meetings) Copia’s true identity is then discovered by Sister Imperator when she hears a tone in his voice that sounds familiar.
A plot was then hatched to replace the current ruler, Papa Emeritus III, who although brought praise and accolades to the order, was much more interested in sex and money than actually ruling.
With Sister’s constant vocal scrutiny and the help of a few bitter Ghouls, Papa Emeritus Nihil had no choice but to stage a coup and Papa III was * imprisoned for debauchery.
It was easy for Sister to insist on Copia’s rise to power because of his accomplishments. And after a few adjustments to his appearance (and some dancing lessons) Cardinal Copia had earned his place to the throne.
