| December 6 is noted as the death day of Saint Nicholas. But this is not true. Saint Nicholas still travels the world all December long and resides in unknown locations at the North Pole and in Spain. First he visits in and around Europe in the guise of an old friendly saint wearing red and white bishop apparel. Then, gaining weight from all the festive treats he changes costumes to be the green Father Christmas, the Yule Goat, Santa Claus and even reports have been made that he may be the Scandinavian Odin. |

| Saint Nicholas is also known as the patron saint of merchants, sailors, prostitutes, students, falsely accused, repentant criminals and any victim of injustice. Legends of Saint Nicholas paint him as a catholic superhero who saves the day for those in desperate time. Modern times merge him with other legendary characters who bring gifts during wintertime heroes. Saint Nicholas usually has helpers that are either tamed monsters, redeemed villains or oppressed minorities who have been emancipated. If you have problem finding work for reasons of prejudice. Chances are that Saint Nicholas can help you with that. Saint Nicholas loves nothing more than to see happy faces and justice being done. |
