== Biography ==
=== As Acanthus ===
Acanthus lived in [[Zordin|Atlantis]] and told stories in the [[market]] for [[money]]. As an old man, he required an [[assistant]] to help him with transcription, washing his [[clothes]] and buying his [[food]], a job for which he hired [[Bernice Summerfield]] when she arrived on his doorstep. He informed her of the customs of Atlantis and became a friend to her over several weeks.
 
When the [[Kraken (The Kraken's Lament)|Kraken]] attacked and Benny told him that she planned on going to [[Queen (The Kraken's Lament)|the Queen]] for answers, Acanthus told her that she was being an [[idiot]] but went with her to the [[Bronze Mountain]] regardless. He found a [[pegasus]] for her to get to the [[Palace of Stone]] and gave her a piece of [[parchment]] which read "the sky's no limit", telling her that it would bring her [[luck]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Kraken's Lament (audio story)|The Kraken's Lament]]'')

In the hierophant-historian debate, he was the compare. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Private Enemy No. 1 (audio story)|Private Enemy No. 1]]'')
