==Biography==

Blahyi was born into the Sarpo tribe in Liberia. The Krahn elders appointed him, at age eleven, as high priest, a position that would lead him to become the spiritual advisor to Liberian President [[Samuel Doe]]. Blahyi adhered to a complex traditional belief system as a Krahn priest.

Blahyi has said he led his troops naked except for sneakers and armed with a gun or machete. He believed that his nakedness was a source of protection from bullets. Blahyi stated he would regularly sacrifice a victim before every battle. "Usually it was a small child, someone whose fresh blood would satisfy the devil."

In January 2008, Blahyi confessed to taking part in [[Human Sacrifice|human sacrifices]] which "included the killing of an innocent child and taking out the heart, which was divided into pieces for us to eat."

Blahyi claimed to a South African Star reporter that he "met Satan regularly and talked to him" and that from age of 11 to 25 he took part in monthly human sacrifices.

During the First Liberian Civil War he led a mercenary unit, many of whom were child soldiers, which was known as the Butt Naked Brigade. His troop fought on behalf of the Liberia Peace Council. They were funded by [[Roosevelt Johnson]] and fought alongside the United Liberation Movement of Liberia for Democracy ([[ULIMO]]) militia against militias led by [[Charles Taylor]] and [[Prince Johnson]]. ULIMO was loyal to Samuel Doe, who was captured and executed personally by Prince Johnson. Taylor eventually took control of the country.

Blahyi's rampage ended in 1996, when the [[Civil War|civil war]] in Liberia was coming to an end. He states his conversion was bolstered by a church in Liberia where Bishop Kun Kun is a pastor. They claimed to have heard from God to fast 54 days for his deliverance. After the fast, they claim God gave them spiritual powers to infiltrate his coven in Monrovia and preach to him. Shortly after, Blahyi claims, he experienced a theophany in which Jesus Christ appeared to him as a blinding light, spoke to him as a son, and told him that he would die unless he repented his sins.
