Geoffry Garth

Origin

An archeologist, Geoffry Garth explores many lands. His main focus is finding the lost signet of Ormuz.

Note: The first comic foreshadows that Geoffry and Sandra Worth may know each other from a former time. The allusion is that they are in fact linked as being both themselves and somehow Garth and Malu the slave girl, whose stories they witness through magic. The comic did not last long enough for this to be answered. As such, Garth and Geoffry are treated as separate people for the sake of clarity in the wiki.

Major Story Arcs

After yet again failing to find the royal signet of Ormuz, Geoffry returns to home to regroup. He attends a party hosted by Sandra Worth, a beautiful redhead. They meet and he is astonished to discover that she possesses a ring that would appear to be the exact duplicate – if not the real thing – of the ring he has been searching for. The two find a corner to talk and he explains that the ring, if legitimate, should enable the possessor to view the past.

The next night, Sandra enters Geoffry’s office and they attempt to use the ring. He reads from an old parchment and the two are overcome by visions of the past. They view a slave girl (Malu) being rescued by a soldier (Garth) and adventures the two have together. The ring eventually loses its power and Geoffry and Sandra agree to try the ring’s powers again the following night.

The ring works the next night and Geoffry and Sandra see further adventures of Garth and Malu.
