Cristos was a photographer, who could not get over the battlefield horrors he had witnessed during World War I. No longer happy with his life in Spain, Cristos moved to the United States with his wife and infant son. But America was not the land of opportunity Cristos had hoped. His wife and son died of pneumonia shortly after their arrival and Cristos found himself working 14 hours a day in a sweatshop, earning next to nothing. The Sabbat's visit was a godsend. Cristos still has guilt over his family’s death and has secretly taken up charity work, helping new immigrants.
