Simon Templar is a mercenary known as The Saint because of his initials (ST), and because his heroic exploits fly in the face of an otherwise nefarious reputation. Templar has aliases, often using the initials S.T. such as "Sebastian Tombs" or "Sugarman Treacle". Blessed with boyish humor, he makes humorous and off-putting remarks, and leaves a "calling card" at his "crimes," a stick-figure of a man with a halo. Templar started his career as a criminal and developed the skills of a burglar. His origin and reasons of his "conversion" remain a mystery.
