During a concert in the band’s hometown of Linköping, Sweden in 2012, Papa Emeritus was ostensibly retired and replaced by a supposedly new vocalist, Papa Emeritus II, which was actually Forge in another costume. The band’s second album Infestissumam was released in 2013. Due to a legal dispute over the band’s name, they were forced to release the album using the name “Ghost B.C.” in the United States. Forge performed as Papa Emeritus II for this album, as well as the subsequent EP If You Have Ghost (2013). Papa Emeritus III was introduced in 2015 to coincide with the release of the band’s third album Meliora.

Forge has been the chief songwriter and business leader of the rock and heavy metal band Ghost since 2006, a project and role that contributed to a significant rise in his fame and popularity, following many years of involvement in other underground acts. During live performances with the band, he performs as its singer, originally under the stage name Papa Emeritus, a demonic anti-pope, and now Cardinal Copia. Peter Hällje, a former bandmate of Martin Persner, claimed he designed the Papa Emeritus character in 2005, prior to the formation of Ghost. Hällje never performed as Papa Emeritus and agreed with Persner to let him use the character for his then-new band. For recorded material, Forge seems to also play most of the other instruments in addition to vocals. For example, he said their 2010 debut album Opus Eponymous was recorded with a session drummer and nothing else.

Forge, as Papa Emeritus III, appears as a guest on Candlemass’ May 2018 vinyl-exclusive version of “House of Doom”.

Despite anonymity being one of Ghost’s biggest themes, Forge’s identity as Papa Emeritus was revealed following a lawsuit in April 2017 by former Ghost members over a royalties dispute. They also claimed he was trying to transform Ghost “from a band into a solo project with hired musicians” in an “underhanded and shameless way”. Forge has disputed this, claiming that Ghost “was always sort of… I guess a Bathory sort of band, where there was people playing live, and the people playing live [were] not necessarily the same that played on the records.” Forge claimed that “no legal partnership” ever existed between the other members and himself; they were paid a fixed salary to perform and execute the band’s image as he instructed as “musicians for hire.”
