The Grail is a clandestine organization with holdings and agents from 113 countries under the guise of Grail Industries. The Grail is tasked to protect the bloodline of Christ. For over two millennia, the Grail works hand-in-glove with Heaven and Hell.
Their ultimate goal is to facilitate the apocalypse through nuclear warfare to pave way for Humperdoo to take over as the messiah.
History[]
After Jesus fathered a child, the Grail was formed by Thaddeus to protect his lineage.[1][2]
Throughout the years, the Samson Unit terminated false prophets that served as threats to Christs' throne, including assassinating Abraham Lincoln.[1]
The organization was after a map that was under their property. Through Dany, they managed to get her to trade Carlos' last known location for their map.[3]
When the Grail learned God was missing, they tried to cover it up by killing Mark Harelik, sending him to Heaven to pose as God.[2]
After learning of Jesse Custer's power, the Grail sent operatives to New Orleans to confirm what they know of him to be true.[4]
Grail anthem[]
Protect Him we must, our holy Babe Leader of a world brand-new
Arise, He shall come
When the time is right
Together, we will start anew
The sky will be bathed in a glorious light
The world, His vision will come true
Cleansed are the sinners, not a heretic in sight
Together we will start anew!
He's glorious, protect Him
He's glorious, we'll protect Him
