Paul Dumas

Paul Dumas is a French jewel thief living in Paris. In the mid-20th century, he met Medusa, a member of the Inhuman Royal Family suffering from near-total amnesia. Her Inhuman powers drew the ire of the citizens of Paris, and she sought safety and comfort, fleeing unwittingly into Paul's apartment. Paul trained her as a thief and integrated her into Parisian high society, a task for which her powers made her well suited. Within two years, the two had amassed a quarter of a million francs between them, but Medusa remained distraught at her lack of a true identity. Dumas tried to romance her, but she refused, and left him. In an act of petty retaliation, Paul called the police on her, forcing her to flee the city penniless.
