Father Lof is a soft-spoken man who can fit in a room without any disturbance to its occupants.  He comes whenever needed and offers as much advice as the listener will accept.  Although he lives in luxury, he tries not to take too much advantage of it and cleans daily.  He allows the homeless and any superhero, established or up-and-coming, to stay in his home.  He has a firm hand when it comes to laziness and keeps a regimented schedule.  He acts as an alternative counselor for students, whether or not they are Catholic.  His only complaints from parents involve discussion of his beliefs, so special rules were set in place that he must follow in order to talk of them.  Normally, he speaks in generalities to allow students to discover things on their own, but he’s willing to be specific if need be.  If not busy, he actively chats with students in hopes that, if they have any problems, they feel safe coming to him.  He also feels like, if he doesn’t, he is stealing from both his patron and the academy, but not doing his job.

He owns the typical equipment for a priest and tons of books.  A kind benefactor lets him stay in a nearby, lushly furnished house.  He is surprisingly strong and intelligent, and is great at calming people and influencing for the better.  He may have an atmosphere that inspires familiarity and consolation, but he can also use his stature to intimidate rowdy students and bullies.  Normally, he can get them to turn around and won’t shy away.

He was raised in an orphanage run by Catholic nuns and excelled in his classes, backed by a secret benefactor who also gave to the orphanage.  He still visits the place, but views it as a selfish nostalgia.  Because of his willingness to do anything required of him and an unnamed friend, he was hired to be the school’s priest to be available at all times, in case of mortal wounds and such.  He also offered his services to recognized superheroes and it’s preferred, but, because of the many dangerous and diverse settings, it’s open to all priests.

There is more than meets the eye with this priest and, while no superhero, he is a force to be reckoned with.  He loves to keep animals around, but has to keep them in a certain part of the house, in case guests are allergic.
