Biography
#257 was originally the Prefect of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids' Department of Chemistry. He was disgraced after losing the Creator's original formula for the Cupid Love Potion, leading to his transfer to the Department of Alchemy. (PROSE: The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids)
He became a criminal and cheated death, hopping from one body to another, as he was chased through the Multiverse by another member of his kind, Pythagoras-858. (COMIC: Jenny Everywhere Meets The Crew Of The Copper-Colored Cupids) According to Pythagoras, he “got killed, (…) and then reembodied himself several times over, (…) although never properly.” (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)
When Pythagoras met Jenny Everywhere, he briefly wondered if she might be a new incarnation of Mandragora, but relented when she showed him that her eyes did not have the characteristic golden glow shared by all of Mandragora's sleeves. (COMIC: Jenny Everywhere Meets The Crew Of The Copper-Colored Cupids) One of the not-quite-human visitors to the Interdimensional Hotel whom Wendy Severn noticed as she got out of the shuttle which had taken her to Hilbert's did, on the other hand, have “eerie, glowing yellow eyes”, although she did not pay him any mind at the time. (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)
It was ultimately discovered that Mandragora, in a new body, had been acting as the advisor of the Consistency Imperium, deceiving them to get them to unwittingly accelerate the spread of the Rifts threatening the fabric of reality, being central to the Rifts Crisis. He had built a "Machine" meant to spark the ultimate detonation of all realities, in some insane effort to ascend to godhood. However, his plan was uncovered in the nick of time, and the backfiring of his scheme was believed to have brought about his final death. (PROSE: Rifts Crisis Officially Over!) Shortly before this, Sebastian Steer, an unrelated Dark Lord, had attempted and failed to highjack Mandragora's scheme for his own ends. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
