History
In 1985, a child named Geoff McHenry was taken by his "uncle", Buck McHenry, to be trained to become the next Geomancer. He would become one of the greatest and most influential Geomancers of all time, especially in regard to his involvement in the Unity Conflict in the Lost Land.
During the Unity conflict, it was Geoff who sent the newborn son of Kris Hathaway (see Harbingers) into the future, where he would someday become Magnus, Robot Fighter.
He was lost for a time, during which he was temporarily replaced by his uncle, Clay McHenry. Eventually, he returned, and resumed his role once more.
In the future, he would someday train his "niece", Lucinda Mendez, to take on his role as the Earth's Geomancer.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“What is most interesting and valuable in it, however, is not the materials for the history of Pontiac, or Braddock, or the Northwest, which it furnishes; not the annals of the country, but the natural facts, or perennials, which are ever without date. When out of history the truth shall be extracted, it will have shed its dates like withered leaves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The history of persecution is a history of endeavors to cheat nature, to make water run up hill, to twist a rope of sand.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The greatest horrors in the history of mankind are not due to the ambition of the Napoleons or the vengeance of the Agamemnons, but to the doctrinaire philosophers. The theories of the sentimentalist Rousseau inspired the integrity of the passionless Robespierre. The cold-blooded calculations of Karl Marx led to the judicial and business-like operations of the Cheka.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
