Jesus Christ
From Indiana Jones Wiki
Jesus Christ, also known as the King of Kings, Jehoshua and the Savior, was the son of the Judeo-Christian God and the Virgin Mary.
He was a carpenter who worked with foster father, Joseph. In his adult life, he spent three years preaching various lessons about love and forgiveness and how to live life out with a devotion to God. He was known to associate with tax collectors, prostitutes, and other various sinners, preaching that they too could be saved. Jesus was also said to possess divine powers to heal the sick, multiply food, and even raise from the dead, and he often performed such miracles to stir belief. At the same time of his preaching, Jesus found himself challenged and hated by the chief priests and Pharisees of the land, and they came to believe that he may lead to the destruction of the Jewish people. At the same time, many zealots saw Jesus as a possible leader to overthrow the Roman rule.
Around the time of the Jewish festival of Passover, Jesus knew that his time on Earth was coming to an end. He celebrated a last supper with his twelve closest followers, his apostles, and the cup he used to serve wine would become the legendary religious relic, the Holy Grail. He was betrayed by one of the twelve to the Pharisees, and then to the Roman authorities, and was executed by crucifixion. Before his death, he predicted he would rise from the dead in three days. Sure enough, he returned from the dead three days later and comissioned his apostles to spread the Word of God, which eventually led to the creation of the religion of Christianity.
The Holy Grail, the Fourth Nail and Spear of Longinus were relics connected to Christ, all embued with supernatural powers from their association.
